I have figured out over the last few months that I don’t have to be a clean freak (diet wise) and do excessive amounts of cardio. It took me a long time to figure this out but now that I have it sorted I am basically getting my
- 1g protein per lb of lbm
- Lifting 3x/week
- Eating in a deficit
This was the advice of wave_length (http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=113693871) and it’s the best thing I ever came across. I have struggled with my weight for so long and I am finally getting on top of it. I dropped over 7kg in 6 weeks before my holiday for 1 month and now I have been back and in to it for just under 2 weeks and am down over 2kg already. Everything in that post makes sence such as his unessential factors, things that are insignificant toward cutting the fat -
- Cardio and fat burners,
- Meal timing and meal frequency,
- Protein / Carb / Fat distribution throughout the day,
- carb / fat ratio,
- Sodium intake,
- Moderate alcohol intake,
- Use of supplements resp. meal replacements,
- “Clean” food vs. Junk food (sugar and saturated fat).
I don’t do cardio, I eat 3 big meals a day for the convenience, I get my 1g protein and the rest of the cals are from anywhere, my sodium intake is a tad high becasue of subway each day and I eat subway each day, even the “bad” ones but it’s factored in to my cals. I drink a beer or three here and there or have some wine here n there but at the end of the week on average i’m in a deficit of about 5,000cals.
I use an avg of the sub’s i’ll eat as I just go down the list and eat the next one each day instead of calculating all my cals each day -

I can’t wait to see where i’m at in 3 months, I suspect i’ll make more progress in the next 3 months that I have ever made in 3 months.
The long hard road to being lean is getting closer and closer
