Week of Working out and Running:

This week has been a good week for me. I have got three good workouts in and a 3 mile run and tomorrow is 18 holes of golf along with a run in the morning so I am looking at 5 days of activity, I like that. 

I weighed myself twice today, once at the gym (291) and at home (289). so the weight is not that different but it is up a little over the last month. I haven't been cheating (much) on my diet so I am going to try something drastic.  I am going to increase what I eat. 

 Previously I was consuming 1920 calories per day to try to keep my weight loss going.  over the last month I have been averaging 2 runs per week (2-3 total miles) and 3 (45 min) workouts.  I do not believe I have been consuming enough calories to keep my metabolism up and my body burning fat.

So I have decided to up my calories to 2400 per day from 1920 based on a formula from this site (http://www.freedieting.com/tools/calorie_calculator.htm#). The key to this entire strategy is that I continue working out / running on a daily basis.  This way I continue to build muscle and burn fat. Only my work over the summer will tell what actually happens.
