RE: Basal Metabolic Rate/How to do CRON

September 2, 2002

Laurie: first off, welcome to the Support list!!

AFAIK, no CRONIE is doing this. But yes, our metabolisms are all different

and there is no set number of calories to be on. In fact, the benefits

accrue according to what your " ad lib " intake was (i.e. if you were ad lib

eating 2200 cal a day and you cut back about 20% to 1800 or so cal, you are

20% CRONED.)

These would be calories packed with nutritious foods. In fact, if you just

start eating heathier, you will probably be in a CR state. See the file " CR

Made Easy " . Under no circumstances, should newcomers drastically start

cutting back calories. CRON is to be undertaken gradually and slowly.

Otherwise, it could be detrimental to your health rather than health

enhancing. It's a trauma to the body (and especially for older wannabe

CRONIES) and must be started slowly. Read Walford's: BT120 YD for more

info. Some extreme CRONIES seem to have damaged their health by losing

weight too fast or in the extreme.
