I use myfitnesspal.com to log my calories, and recently I have read allot of post of people who have had success zig zagging their calories to loose weight! There are allot of sites that will give you a zig zag calorie goal; however, the one I looked at is http://www.freedieting.com/tools/calorie_calculator.htm
You enter all your information into the boxes age, height, ect., and then I went to the advance features and clicked for it to use the Harris Benedict formula (the one used in the Insanity guide). For lack of a description of my workout days I used the workout intensely for 5 days. According to what I plugged in, my maintenance calories is at 2259, fat loss is at 1807, and extreme fat loss would be at 1355! I proceeded to click on the zig zagging link and it gave me some calorie goals for each day!
The purpose of zig zagging your calories is to keep you body guessing everyday on the calorie consumption. And after an on going battle with the scale I might go ahead and try the zig zag method for myself! It's worth a try!
