Then, descend your calories in the same manner. Keep your superhydration schedule at the highest level. In other words, sip 1 5/8 gallons (6. 2 l) of icecold water each day. Continue your Bowflex exercise routine at the highest level. Perform the same 10 exercises three times per week. Try to get as strong as you can in each exercise, while always focusing on the 4-second count in both lifting and lowering. 25 Q&A Q. I'm pleased that I lost the fat I wanted to lose. What do I do to maintain my new body weight?Once you've lost your excessive fat, your next task is to maintain that status. Here are the adjustments you need to make to your current practices. Adhere to a carbohydrate-rich, moderate-calorie eating plan. Instead of eating from 1000 to 1500 calories a day, you'll be consuming from 1600 to 2400 calories per day. Maybe you can eat even more after your new body weight has stabilized. Trial-and-error experimentation is a must. Women should start with 1600 calories, and men with 2000 calories per day. If your body weight keeps going down, raise the calories by 100 or 200, depending on how much weight you lost during the last week. Soon, you should reach a level where your body weight stabilizes. That level is your daily calorie requirement. Naturally, you'll be able to consume other foods than those listed in the Bowflex eating plan. By then, however, you should know the value of being a smart shopper and a wise eater. Be conscious of the ideal 60:20:20 ratio for carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.
