Hi everyone! Long time lurker, first time poster. I've been doing CICO on/off for the last 3 years or so and fell off the wagon last June after discovering cheesecake, which was a doubly-bad idea seeing as I'm lactose intolerant.
I'm ready to get back on the wagon and ride it all the way into health-ville, but I have a couple of questions first.
First up: me! I'm 5'4" and currently around 175lbs. I say 'around' because I don't own a scale, although I ordered a new one which is due to arrive soon, and that's what I weighed last time I checked.
In the last few months I've managed to make some changes such as completely cutting chocolate out of my diet and attempting to get at least 2,000 steps in a day. I lead a VERY sedentary life because my job involves me working from home and being on call 24/7. I'm currently eating around 1,500 calories/day.
I have an exercise bike. For the last week or so, I've been waking up, cycling 5km, going about my day, and cycling another 5km in the evening.
The question: Is this beneficial? Will it speed up my weight loss in any way? Even if it won't help with weight loss, should I keep doing it anyway because it makes my muscles feel nice and gives me endorphins? Should I lower my calories?
Thank you for any help you can give! ❤️
(I also accept vegetarian recipes. I'm pretty much living off hummus and tomatoes right now.)
