Ending Week 7
I haven’t updated in a few weeks but I am still here. I got over the cold, made it into the gym in week 5 (where I last left off) and did pretty good considering how shitty I was feeling. Stuck to the plan, ended up having a good carb-up, and may I note that these carb-ups are getting easier & better.
Week 6 was flawless, and this week was even better. I’ve been dead on with everything, workouts, intensity & diet. I’m feeling fantastic and I can see the fat just melting away! I love it! This may be the most strict diet I’ve ever put myself on but holy smokes does it deliver if you stick to/with it. I even had one of my pole dancing instructors approach me yesterday and ask me what the hell I was doing cause I’ve toned up so much over the past 2 months. I’m not doing this for anyone but myself but I’d be lying if I told you that it doesn’t feel good when other people notice.
I actually haven’t weighed myself in a few weeks, no real reason, I just haven’t. But to be honest, at this point weight is almost irrelevant. I kind of don’t care if I lose the 10 pounds I’ve set out to lose in the beginning, as long as I look lean and toned who cares what the scale says? I will weigh myself next week tho because I’m also gonna post some new progress pics. I like taking progress pics every 4 weeks or so, I don’t like to do it daily or even weekly because realistically, how much different can I possibly look from day to day? At least over 4 weeks you can see some changes. Anyway, I think that will be all for now, it’s late and I don’t know what I am still doing up.
It’s all day carb-up day tomorrow! Yummmm, fresh bread!!!

im curious what your diet consists of. If its to target fat, Im all for it. I’ve tried several, but none seem to work effectively. Im always up for new experiments!

Sunday through Friday I pretty much eat pure protein & fat, very little carbs, under 30g, and most of that comes from green veggies such as broccoli & green beans, any vegetable that’s high in fibre. I eat that, about 500-600 cals under maintenance (so for me it’s about 1500-1600 cals/day).
I train Monday (chest, shoulders & abs), Tuesday (back & arms), Wednesday (legs), Thursday (just low intensity cardio) & Friday I do a depletion workout where I do about 1-2 exercises for each body part. Immediately following my depletion workout I have a high carb protein shake, & an hour later I start my carb-up so I switch from eating high fat to eating low fat and high carb. I keep the protein intake about the same. I carb up until midnight on Saturday. During my 30 hour carb-up I actually eat a bit above maintenance, so I eat about 2700-2800 cals, most of it coming from carbs.
It’s not an easy diet when you first start because you really have no energy the first few weeks & you absolutely can’t cheat or it defeats the purpose of doing it. If you’re interested in it, look it up on here, just search for Keto. I just started week 8 and I honestly see a huge difference so I would highly recommend it for fat loss
