Lower Body Fat does not Forgive
Posted on 26. Aug, 2010 by Jay in Food
I guess my trainer was right that once you have a lower body fat percentage.. if you have one bad week of eating, it really shows.
So I have been eating not so good foods lately in an attempt to not lose anymore weight. The good thing is I’m exactly the same weight (177) pounds a few days ago, but the bad thing is my body fat percentage has gone up a little bit.
I think all those days of eating out is catching up with me?
It’s like I have to start all over with figuring out which things to eat to best maintain my weight while accomplishing my other goals.
I guess eating out at Carl’s Jr twice in one week isn’t a good idea. 
Live and learn…

Welcome to JayLoss.com! I’m Jay!
I'm Jay and I've come a long way from my peak weight of 336 pounds!
I've documented my weight loss from 268 pounds all the way down to 170-ish pounds in this blog. It took just under a year to do and since reaching my goal weight, I decided to maintain 180 pounds. Now I'm focusing on building muscle and maintaining a healthy body fat percentage.
Of course there have been a lot of ups and downs in losing so much weight. The process of setting goals and reaching them is very exciting. Just having something to strive for and using this blog as pressure to keep me going did wonders.
Stick around, give me your feedback and maybe start your own weight loss journey. -Jay

I have read that people require extreme dietary measures to maintain single digit body fat. Didn’t sound like it was healthy to maintain. The body wants a little fat i guess.

Very nice websites, thanks Reinaldo!
By the way Reinaldo, move your website to your own domain name and it’ll be easier for people like me to follow you / comment on your posts.

That would require mad skills I do not own at the moment
I had thought about it, but I’ll need to do a lot of learning first! Really I wouldn’t know where to start.
