So, I've been struggling with goal setting. I've done well, but I'm never satisfied.
I came to the realization that I really don't have to be in a rush to get below 10% bodyfat. The fact that I seem to be in a point of stasis tells me I need to be far more flexible. I'm simply not able to stick with a hard and fast calorie count at this point, and cycling doesn't seem to be doing anything as a 'plan'.
2800. That's my calorie threshold. Where I'm feeling good, I'll fall below that, but I don't see a need to drop below about 2200 calories. I don't think it serves me. When I'm feeling like I'm approaching low eb, I will hit near the 2800 calories. I'm not worried about lifting days or non lifting days for when I'm lower or higher calories. I'm just going to go with what feels right. Today will be a higher calorie day. Time to spin the wheel.

Actually, I think it will be good, Jimmie. And I realized that my problem isn't in setting goals - it's sticking to them at the moment. Leaving it flexible lets me do what feels right at the moment but still bars the cheetos and coca cola.

Hi, Brenda. Nice to see you. :) 22 pushups each day as a remembrance - tribute to the average # of veterans who commit suicide daily.

Very good! If you are 10% BF, you probably do not need to be lower. @ scalewatcher - "22" is the number of push-ups some of us are doing daily for a Challenge

Great work on the push-ups!! the elusive sub 10% hehehe....i feel ya... I actually don't count calories, or really track what I eat. We (wife and I) have a pretty set meal schedule...skip breakfast...just coffee, lunch is fish/chicken/beef with veggies of some kind, possibly brown rice or sweet potato, dinner is similar to lunch. Pasta once in awhile, and a spike/carb load once a week. No dinner on gym nights, just a shake. It allows me to stay on-track without worrying about it and to have a night out once a week if need be.

That sounds like a pretty good approach, Mahjohn. My initial change on days where I'm feeling good is to skip the oats in the morning. No dinner on gym nights... maybe a snack instead. I admit counting calories is a bit annoying, but I've been doing it a long time. I do know what a good meal looks like, however. Maybe I'll try that at some point. Thanks.

@northern...As I have never been overweight, 17% BF was the most...ever, there is never the concern that things are out of hand, or going back to the way they were, as it would be for someone that was overweight and then lost weight. For this person, there would always be that niggling feeling that a slip up here or there could lead to disaster. At this point, it's more mental than physical, you've crafted and sculpted a new you that doesn't know about the body you had before, just the body you have now.
