Diario de wintersmith, 18 mar. 10

So, it has been a month on the "zig-zag" approach. I'm sorry to say there wasn't a change. In fact, I'm to the pound the same weight as I was. I've eaten a lot more than I was previously, so that is a good thing and I might revisit the diet plan later.

I'm going to try a 2200 kcal diet plan instead. Consistent calories is somewhat easier to track and will make my wife relieved since she was trying to plan our meals and date nights around my diet. I will stick with the no sugar or artificial calorie-free substitutes for now. It isn't easy (yea gods, restaurants do not know how to brew iced tea!) but I have hopes. I will back off of the "no sugar" a bit and codify it. One sugary item per day, and it has to be at least an hour before or after weight training or other exercise. That will at least keep the insulin spike from causing unintended side effects.

So, a thank you to Cindy for pointing that diet plan out to me. It certainly was eye-opening and has convinced me that my previous plan (severe calorie restriction compared to the amount of calorie burn I was attempting) was probably unhealthy and holding me back a bit.
