Keep your Body Guessing-

Once you have figured out your daily calorie count I want you to try this little trick...



Say you are supposed to have 1400 calories a day, meaning you should take in 9800 calories a week. So instead of dividing those calories up into 7 days of 1400 calories each try eating 1200 calories one day and 1600 the next. Then try 1300 calories, followed with a 1500 calorie day. Just make sure you are at 9800 calories at the end of the week.



Apply this same idea to your workouts. Have some killer workout days mixed in with more moderate exercise. Just be sure to reach your calorie burn for the week.



Not only will this keep things more interesting it will also help you to fight the dreaded weight loss plateau.

Great tips, thanks! This is what I am struggling with now after losing 76lbs. I hadn't lost anything for a few months, so I dropped my calorie count and change up the work out routines.
