With the help of calorie tracking and expenditure web-based software Graphite online I have broken into the 240′s. Down from 285 lbs. in December of ’08 I am dropping pounds and entering into new territory. My physical training has remained consistant, but keeping track of what I consume has been the game changer. I have developed better habits and am more conscience of what I put down the hatch.
Keys to success:
-reduced calories (recording daily what I eat)
-increased protein
-consistent strength and conditioning training

That’s awesome, Kyle.
Quick question… On a reduced calorie diet, would you ere on the side of exceeding your calorie target to get more protein? Or cut back on the protein in order to stay under your calorie target?
