Planning Your Deficit Part 2- A Week in the Life of Liss
Since it has been a few months since I last posted what my week of workouts and meals looks like, so I thought I would do an update.
When planning a deficit, what works and does not work often changes. For example, I used to prefer 36 hour fasts, and now I generally prefer 24h fasts. The key to fasting is to go with what feels best and works with your life. In general- the leaner you are, the shorter your fasts should be.
I am doing less cardio and more lifting now as I am not training for the annual half marathon currently. That will pick back up in October.
As you approach your goal metric- the calories should be tapering upward so that you are approaching maintenance calories and you slide right into
Here is the look of my current weekly routine-
- 8000-9000 calories per week, with 1 day at maintenance calorie levels (My maintenace level is approx 1700-1900 cals a day depending on activity level)
- 1x24H fast
- 4-5 Venus Factor workouts (generally an hour each)
- 1-2 hours of moderate intensity cardio (stadiums, jogging)
- Average 85g protein daily or more
- Tend to skip or eat a smallish breakfast to save calories for later in the day when I am hungrier

Forward day eating wise! After a full day at work, my friend Carrie- a veteran Venus friend from the Venus Index Community, came to visit from Iowa. We did 55 minutes of VI Phase 3, Week 12, Day 4 with shoulder and leg specializations at my Venus gym class. It was a blast! When I have a busy day, my crockpot is my friend because dinner is ready to go when I get home. I made my Crockpot Tex Mex Shredded Chicken for dinner, I make this about once a week! You are going to notice that I eat Greek yogurt with fruit almost every night for dinner- this is how I make it.
Carrie is far left, I am toward the center |

This was a scheduled maintenance day, and it worked out that I had a lunch date scheduled with an old friend. This is how I make my protein pancakes, they freeze well too. I chose to do an hour of Venus Circuits for cardio- these are high rep low weight circuits that are intense! It was too hot to go outside and run or do stadiums, and I generally hate getting on the dreadmill! Circuits are great alternate form of cardio.

So this is my normal 24H fast day, as I take metrics every Thursday morning to judge progress. I have been doing breakfast to breakfast fasts generally, but this turned into a lunch to lunch fast. For a "perfect" fast, I should have not had any watermelon at dinner. But I was getting close to breaking my fast, and instead of ending it early, I have learned to eat something high in volume but low in calories to keep with it (apple, cucumbers, watermelon are my go-to's)... so not perfect, but better than ending it early. Still get desired VERY forward day. That is the point. In Venus class, we started an Adonis Index 12 week program- Adonis Triple Stack. It is going to be a great change to focus on more upper body work!

I ate out TWICE this day and still managed to have a forward day- so it CAN be done. Actually, lunch was not even "eating out" it was catered in so that was ALL I had to choose from. Notice that I ate my normal protein bar snack with lunch? I did so because they were serving dessert and it averted me from blowing my day by visiting the desserts but still getting something sweet. My fajita dinner is my go-to eating out at mexican food restaurants. Why not just get the fajita salad? There is less meat and onion/bell pepper. I pour the lettuce and salsa served at the table on top of the sizzling platter- it is delicious. No workout this day, we were house hunting all afternoon after work! It would have normally been a cardio day- but I am flexible. Still hate missing a workout!

I love weekends, lots of extra time to cook! I usually reserve alcohol for weekends only, and only sparingly at that. It uses too many calories up and tends to urge me to make poor food choices in general, This is how I cut the amount of wine I drink. Slightly forward day. We did the second day of Adonis Triple Stack at the gym in Venus Class.
