Amazing what six weeks can do for a person. I was letting myself go, and then one picture of my mid-section woke me the hell up. I'm still working on it, but not bad. Played with my carb intake and added in HIIT. Attachment 1417

Sick progress in six weeks. Can you define clean diet for us nutritionally challenged types?
Nice work! Did you add HIIT to your normal workout or did you add it as an additional workout?

Awesome progress man! Was that from counting calories/macros or just sticking to whole foods?
Well done sir, well done.
If only I could bring myself to do some HIIT.
What type of dieting guidelines are you following FPR?
very nice progress, keep on man!
Thanks, guys.
I was coming off of a serious case of the dietary "fuck-its" when I started. I was insulin resistant as hell from splurging on pizzas, burgers, pop and junk food. I had really let myself go.
I took two weeks and did the traditional super low carbs, like you'd do with Atkins. Then after the two weeks, I started to phase carbs back in very slowly. I'm still doing fairly low carb (about 50-60 net per day, but not really strictly tracking). I'm eating a lot of cruciferous veggies and nuts, eating ground sirloin, using whole-grain flat breads and pita breads in place of regular bread, nuts, healthy fats, nut butters, etc.
It's a morph of a Mediterranean meets Atkins with an occasional stretching of the diet, but when I do, I am very conscious of portions. If I decide, for example, that I want spaghetti on a non-cheat day, I make whole grain spaghetti (grains really tear me up anyhow, so getting a lot of the grains out of my diet has benefited my digestion and joints) and I have about half what I normally would. I also try to time it so when I have my carbs, I have them earlier in the day.
Whether that really makes a difference or not (the timing, that is), I don't know. But it's treated me OK so far.
Sunday, however, I we eat whatever we want, all day. It's almost like a carb re-feed, I guess you'd say.
I'm taking CLA, organic apple cider vinegar, raspberry ketones, Kyo-Greens, high-quality vitamins, and an adaptagen blend from Super Man Herbs. And if you recall, I had kicked things off with some Epiandro.
My wife is following the same diet and has dropped 20 pounds in the last six weeks.
I had my bodyfat checked last week and it was 10.7%. I'd like to get down to 8 or 9 and then I'm good. We'll see, though.
