Hey red, I think your calories are fine since you are not concerned with losing weight just bodyfat. At some point you may have to change the workout and actually try to add some muscle which will mean a slight increase in weight, and then cut back down. It is a process you actually go through frequently to get to where you want to be. For now though I think what you are doing is fine, but it should be re-eveluated in about 8 weeks or so. That is why I encourage you to take pictures, you will sometimes not see the gradual changes that get picked up in pictures.

Weight: TOM

Pre workout carbup: 2 tablespoons dextrose in water (approx 25 mins before workouts)

Workout: pm Weights: Shoulders, Back; then 21 minutes of moderate cardio--bike

Post workout: 2 ozs cottage cheese, 1 tablespoon flax oil

Checked for ketosis a a litle more than 2 hours later and the strip said was in.

Calories: 1847: Fat 142g (70%)…[Saturated fat 7%]; Carbs: 60g, net carbs: 25g; Protein: 110g (24%)

I'm gonna try to keep my calories on weight training days no higher than 1500 calories and on cardio days at 1200-1300 calories.

I checked my measurements--no change in inches. Grrr.... Will see if I can get body fat done this week at gym. They only have biolelectrical impedance.
