A few things I wanted to write about:
#1: I just noticed/realized that the "Lifting Stats" profile thing is for BARBELLS & not dumbells. Oops! No wonder my #s looked so small. I kinda thought that everyone was just really strong. LOL. So, you’ll see a major jump in my progress charts. =P
#3: I’ve changed my "diet" to less fat, more carbs, & no more protein than I need. I try to follow the following as best as I can:
2000 calorie eating plan:
120 grams of protein (4 cals x 120 = 480 cals)
50 grams of fat (9 cals x 50 grams = 450 cals)
275 grams of carbohydrates (4 cals x 275 grams = 1100 cals)
= 50% carbs/25% protein/25% fat^^ I don’t know my maintenance, my bf%, my lean body mass, etc. & I don’t really calorie count/macronutrient count. But this seems to be some-what ideal for my stats/life. So, I’m keeping it in the back of my mind the whole time while eye-balling stuff. My progress is alright, though.#3: As a result of more carbs & less fat, I’m getting major pimples around my chin/top of my neck again. Ugh. But my fat loss is going alright. So, you gotta take the good w/ the bad. When I was on keto this past winter, my pimples were non-existant. But I was gaining fat back like crazy. =’(
#4: My city’s weather is so epic right now. But it’s making me feel horrible about my recent re-gain. *sigh* I was really hoping to have a kick-ass summer, in regards to finally being @ my goal (…in terms of fat amount; not muscle. I doubt I’ll ever be satisfied w/ that. =P) I didn’t even manage to lose it by now once I stopped doing Keto on N.Y.E.. *sigh*
