Day #6 of Dr. Siegal’s 28-Day Diet to Determine Metabolic Rate

Kathy on June 23rd, 2010

  Day #6 weigh-in: 121.4.  No change again, but I didn’t get any exercise yesterday either.   (I was attending a teacher training in Port Orange.)  Man, I hate to think that all my body burns is 1084 calories if I spend a sedentary day!  I’m definitely getting some exercise today.

Kathy on June 9th, 2010

I started keeping a calorie count yesterday in preparation for our upcoming 28-Day Diet to determine the body’s metabolic rate.  While Dr. Siegal (Is Your Thyroid Making You Fat?) allows diet sodas and other non-nutritive diet foods, we are going to take a higher road here on OsteoDiet.  We may be cutting back on calories [...]
