Hi! In the past 7 months I lost 35 lbs, going from 145 to staying between 110-115 at 5”3’ and 22 years old. I haven’t always done it the healthy way and for a bit I was at 105 which is basically underweight. So I’m trying to be healthy about it. I am good on diet. I try to stay within 200 calories a meal now. I was just doing cardio, running on average 5 (sometimes as much as 8) miles at least 4 times a week and eating once a day, very low calorie meal or every other day to maintain that 105. Now I want to maintain the 110lbs. So far it’s working, but now I’m running 4 miles, which according to my Fitbit charge 3 I burn between 380-400 calories depending on how long it took me, and then i head to the gym and spend 45-60min doing HIIT and keeping my heart rate up. For an hour it said I burned 380 calories yesterday on my Fitbit. I have been doing the 4 mile run then go to the gym for 45-60 minute combo 5 days a week. Just wanted to see if you guys thought this is enough to keep my weight down fallowing a mostly strict diet of 200ish calories a meal (3 times a day) with once or twice a week, maybe having a pizza for a meal or something of that nature. Also, do you think my Fitbit sounds accurate with calorie burn? Note for the gym I do focus on keeping heart rate up and monitor it while I’m working out to make sure it doesn’t get to low. For the running I don’t monitor heart rate but it says it’s pretty high, and I never walk any of the miles I run and run a lower 10 minute mile consistently.
Sorry I know this is long but it’s bugging me. Thanks!
