FrederickSebastian Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 Hey everyone, So, I decided to start the CR diet today gradually. I am starting out with 2000 calories per day and cutting 20 calories every week. I am keeping track of everything with the cronometer and documenting everything through YouTube. Check it out! I have a link below. Today and for the rest of the week I am eating: one head of cabbage, four hard boiled eggs, half a tablespoon of flaxseeds and half a bottle of low-calorie salad dressing at 8:00AM and 8:00PM, which is when I plan on eating every day (12 hour fasting in-between). I am adding a few low-calorie drinks during the day so that it adds up to 2000 calories but totally forgot to put that in the cronometer 🙄🙄... I will update this every day with what I'm eating. Suggestions are always welcome 💕!! Here is a link to my YouTube diary: CLICK HERE FOR THE YOUTUBE DIARY Here is a copy of today's cronometer: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrederickSebastian Posted January 2, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 whoops! I totally forgot to add that I put 1/2 cup of mixed nuts in my salad at each sitting... It's not in my video either, but I did add it in there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrederickSebastian Posted January 2, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 OK. So, so far today, I've had one bottled Dunkin Donuts coffee drink, two rye crackers with guacamole and two rye crackers with hummus. I also have listed what I plan on eating later on today in the cronometer below. Any suggestions as to what you think I should add to this to make it add up to 2000 calories? (I decided to stop with the cabbage diet because it was giving me a headache and it was hard to eat a head of cabbage at every sitting). Should I add more fats to get more omega-3 and omega-6 or should I just stop since my lipids are above 100% currently (probably because of the cheese)?

mccoy Posted January 4, 2020 Report Share Posted January 4, 2020 More vegetables, fruits, mushrooms for B-complex vitamins, nonfat fresh yogurt for low-calorie B12 + potassium, ground flaxseed or chai seeds for ALAs (omega-3), a little walnuts for ALAs and omega-6 ,. Also, you can fix your 2000 kcals as arbitrary starting energy level but you should weigh yourself every morning and keep a record of it, same time, before drinking or eating.

FrederickSebastian Posted January 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2020 I have decided to discontinue my CR channel and start it up again in September for private reasons. Sorry for any disappointment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
