Doobie2270’s BodyBlog

So, apparently, 1800 calories are too little for a 200 pound 6 ft wannabe bodybuilder with 11% bodyfat.  Who knew?  The friendly folks at the keto boards have shown me the error of my ways, and have gently pointed me in the right direction.  I guess the severe hunger pangs and carb cravings should have been a sign that maybe I’m starving.

This is still cutting season, however, and I can’t just stop barely after taking off.  I’ll increase my calories veeeery gradually over the next few days, taking progress pictures (the scale’s a lying little sh**!) in weekly intervals to see how my body reacts.  Hopefully, I will be able to go up to ~2300 cals/day without losing definition around my abdominal area. Hell, the BB.com calculators say I should be eating over 3000, so I’m gonna be pissed if I actually manage to get fat on 2300.

I’m not interested in talking to myself online on a daily basis.  Suffice it to say, it’ll be a miracle if I keep this thing updated.  I’m just taking this moment to say that I am officially cutting.  I’ll be cutting all summer or until my willpower fountain dries up, whichever comes first.  Then when it gets colder outside, I’ll be bulking again.  Can’t wait.  Then next year, same cycle.
