I am a F27 and 3 weeks ago I weighed 242 pounds (starting weight was at 286). 3 weeks ago I decided to start to calculate my calories and go to the gym more often. I have been eating 1400-1500 calories and exercising 300 minutes a week, about 5 days a week. I still get these irrational fears that my weight has gone up even if I am using the food scale for everything and really seeing great improvements at the gym with my stamina and weights.
I have not yet had a refeed-day but was thinking of having one this week. How high should I go with the refeed-day calories to boost my metabolism? This would be my first refeed so have literally no idea how high people usually go. Is 3000 calories ok, or should I up it to 4000 for that day? I will be having one refeed-day a month, is it enough?
