The average vs the line

Daily weigh-ins are the faint dots. The 7-day average is the number that counts.

What it takes

The daily targets behind the numbers.

The four rules

Four rules. Not one is about a food.
  1. Judge the week, not the day.

    The 7-day average decides. A single weigh-in never does.

  2. Floors, not ceilings.

    Minimums for calories, protein and fat. No maximum.

  3. Log the lapse.

    Every day gets logged, the good ones and the bad ones.

  4. The hold is the goal.

    Three weeks at maintenance over Christmas, on purpose, before the finish.

Measured on BodySpec DEXA, fasted, morning, rest day. A single scan is noisy by about a pound of fat; the trend across scans is what counts.

Why this time

Three finish lines, three rebounds. The peaks got higher every time.
