DRAFT - IN PROGRESS
EATING FOR PERFORMANCE
May 4, 2015
Today was my meeting with the sports performance nutritionist
at Indiana University. When I went to bed
last night, I had no idea how emotional today would be. I put together a history of my weight over
the last eight weights, and for the last week, I gave details - calories
consumed, foods consumed, training details and calories expended during training
(according to Garmin).
I spoke last week with my doctor about where to stop losing weight
earlier in the week. He said with
firmness not to go below 135. I decided
that I didn’t want to go below 140 to give myself a little buffer. Yesterday, I weighed 146.8 prior to taking a cheat day. This morning, I weighed 149.5 (probably a lot of water weight from the additional salt I ate yesterday).
the day before and after a
cheat following that weekend, I currently weighed 149.5. So the question was still about where to
stop. The other question was about how
to stop. Did I want to stop by gradually
increasing my calories to a place where I was no longer losing or did I want to
stop abruptly? I developed a temporary
plan
