This past week, I continued my daily sub-1000 calorie consumption as I have been doing since December 24, 2014. Since I began this journey I have not had one snack. I eat breakfast, lunch and dinner. That's it. When I sit down to breakfast each and every day, I am truly breaking my fast from the night before. This was the first week that I almost exclusively worked out on the ELLIPTICAL TRAINER. (I 'walked' on the treadmill only on Saturday morning.)
I worked out for a total of 7.5 hours (one 60 minute walk and thirteen 30 minute sessions on the elliptical machine) which burned 5397 CALORIES.
My weight loss for the week was 4.7 lbs
The previous week I was just a little bit 'psychotic'. I 'walked' 80 miles on the treadmill. I spent 20 hours, 'walking' at 4 mph for 60 minutes each session. (twenty sessions total) I calculated that I should have burned 12,000 CALORIES.
My weight loss for the week that I 'walked' 80 miles, burning 12000 CALORIES was 'only' 3.7 lbs.
CONCLUSION: REGARDING EXERCISE....

| I decreased the hours spent working out, and experienced better results. Conclusion: LESS IS MORE! |
