Testing New Diet
I’ve been off a consistent meal plan for a while now. Working at a restaurant really throws a wrench in things when we get a rush and I can’t slow down to get my meals at the ideal time, if at all. Despite this, I’m going to try to get as close to it as possible and get back to prepping all my meals in advance now that we’re moved and I’ve got a full kitchen at my sole disposal.
This time around I’m going to be trying to pull out as many simple carbs as possible avoiding any direct sugars. This is one diet method that I have not personally tried myself, though I know the benefits of. I have a couple friends I’ve been doing nutrition plans for as my guinea pigs (which is working out beautifully for them both) and this would be the next phase for them so I need to make sure its gonna work. I also have bulked enough that I’m a solid 14% bodyfat and generally I prefer to stay around 11-12% for maintenance. Instead of doing a quick keto blitz to get back down I’m building this diet to be around 2900 calories (2700 on non-training days without pre and during workout supplements) for a calorie deficit of roughly 450 calories per day. Protein is still high at 310g/day (I very much prefer 1.5-1.75g/lb bodyweight), carbs being moderate for me at 221g (only 41g simple carbs), and fats around 86.5g. Fats are mostly from whole eggs, olive oil, and meat sources where saturated fats will be minimized by the cooking means.
I’m pretty excited to see how it works out for me. Usually my diet is fairly high in dairy sugars so pulling those out alone will contribute a good deal to improved definition. I’ll keep you all updated how it goes and hopefully have some good progress pics to show with the results. If you want the specifics of the diet lemme know.
