Steak, Eggs, Lean Salad and Two (Potentially Three) Beards. Diet Log.

My time here is done!

Final results:

100kg to 92kg in 6 weeks. 8kg or about 18lbs weight loss.
Small strength loss in the press towards the end. No other strength loss and some strength gain in the SQ/DL.
Look leaner, vascular, belt looser blah blah.

Anyway, I'll be moving forward with a 6 hour eating window IF style. Maintaining weight for a couple of months. The next push will be to move down to 87kg but slower, I'll probably start that late Sept or Oct time.

Thank you all for the support, mentally it's been very gratifying to have set myself that target and nail it.

Sure Jen, I only really sit down to eat twice a day so it's a simple plan.

7-12am - Tea, water. No calories. Most of the day's work is done here.

12-1pm - Eggs, Meat or Fish a large portion + seasoned stir fry veggies with cashews. Usually this works out to be eggs or fish, as I don't always like meat twice a day.

3-4pm - Usually some sort of low-carb snack; nuts, cheese or whatever else. Roasted nuts or pistachios are my favourite. With more tea.

5-7pm - Gym

7pm - Large meal, similar to the first one but with larger portions. Lately this has been 8 chicken legs or 4 chicken breasts usually kentucky fried style, battered or with hot sauce something like that. Last night it was around 8 lamb chops. Sometimes I'll smash a lot of fish. I usually fry my chicken and fish and oven heat the chops. With this meal I'll have more stir fry veg with cashews.

7:30-11pm - Tea, water. No calories.

That's a very standard day. Occasionly I will skip the first meal and go straight into the last meal. This doesn't happen very often but it did happen toward the start of the diet more often.

I didn't count calories here, which is unusual for me but I decided not to for this experiment.

Thank you! This looks pretty do-able -- with one exception for me. I am a coffee hound in the am.

You can have some of mine.

So in the past two weeks my weight has gone from 97.55kgs to 100.3kgs this morning At the same time, however, my waist has continued to shrink and I actually fitted into a suit I found in my wardrobe from when I was 94kgs and fat 3 years ago

Now my calorie intake is down on what it was 2 weeks ago and as of last week I have moved my carb window back to start at 7-8pm so I only get 1 carb meal instead of 2. The Fahrenheit supplements I am on, particularly Resurrect which is a sleep aid which promotes HGH production, must be doing something. To eat less and gain mass in the right areas is great.

In the long term my goal is still to compete at 93kgs come November 25th so I will need to get my weight down. I will be stricter this week in terms of the quality and quantity of carbs I eat in my backload meal and see if that brings me down some. Overall I can't be unhappy with a smaller waist and more bodyweight though
