Weight / Fat loss

82.1 this morning. 0.1 down on the end of last week. hmmm.

Still it's progress, going well. I've fell of the wagon a couple (few) times but write that off and start again the next day.

Distinct lack of booze in my diet this week too - only had a whisky last night when getting a little annoyed on the computer.

Protein shakes have arrived. Even though I'm running at a calorie deficit should I be taking these in place of a meal? For example having one instead of breakfast - or go out for a run, lift some weights then take one before dinner?

You could try mixing a shake with some oats in the morning, suppose it depends on what flavour you went for. I've occasionally been having a shake for breakfast but that was for convenience. Then I usually have one later at night. If you are going to have shakes, factor them into your calorie intake for the day, and I'd say you should really have them even on rest days as it's overall intake over a 24 hr period which matters.
