Actually a pretty good diet Marty. The low fat-high carbohydrate mix has shown to lead to fat loss @1 pound a week in test subjects. As for protein- 1 to 1.5 g per kilo is more than enough. Beyond that your body just breaks it down anyways and pisses it out - stripping calcium with it.

Started keto on friday and been loving it.ive been realistically eating 7-800 grams of carbs a day on average and up to 1000 many days.Felt shirt but strong as fuck.So on keto and truly feel great except brutal headaches.

Eggs,chicken breasts,steak,almonds,tuna,haddock,some veggies and Atkins shakes.

Feeling so much better and dropped from 253 to 245 in 7 days. Strength hasn’t dropped yet either and cardio is better.

So my conclusion is carbs suck yet they make me strong as hell.

Protein requirements/recommendations are excessive for most people. Carbohydrates are not evil and you don't need to eat carbs to spike insulin and store excess energy. Caloric deficits are the only way to lose weight, eliminating carbs/fats is not necessary. Fat intake is required if you're natural, less so if you're providing testosterone exogenously. That's about it.

Agreed. Everybody is looking for a macro to blame for something, and people also love being part of a group or fad. I’ve personally gotten lean while eating plenty of carbs. Everybody is different and the best diet is one you can stick to, but it’s the calories, not rocket science. The general population under-eat protein and fiber and over-consume calories, so when they finally try a diet that is higher protein and less calories than their previous diet consisting of shit, they think their diet is magical.

A 42+ lb. weight loss is nothing to sneeze at. Good job! What's you goal weight? What did you weigh when you were at your peak in your 20's?  Are you sticking to vegetable proteins or have you added meat and dairy back into your diet?

Scenario 2 - Any workout that burns calories and adds muscle is good. Resistance, volume and speed all play a role.

That's definitely not FAT fat, maybe unless you're a buck forty and Clarence Bass.

Just be sure to eat plenty of fiber.  I like keto but it left me constipated.

i would be peeled at 260 ,. At my peak 245 is my guess. Protein powder is key no dairy no meat, dairy very rarely

As I recall from past photos you've posted, you have impressive wheels. It's no wonder you like these overhead type squats. When you only have time for half your workout, which half of your body gets preference? Do you find working out on a regular basis more difficult than it was a decade or so ago? What would you say is the main inspiration for your current workout/diet regimen?

Which brands of protein powder or drinks do you prefer? My daughter and son-in-law use Vega.

Its literally the one food you can solely eat and not only sustain your life, but have no deficiencies. I would categorize that as a superfood.

My main inspirations are to not degrade physically n mentaly, working out teaches me im still fit and agile like a 20 year old and i can maintain that neutral satisfaction with life. Its a fast road to death if im thiinking fuck it ill just sleep.

If i only have time for half a workout , ill pick one or two comppound movents or a calisthenic movement , pullups with knees elevated or some type of squat are my favorite exercise either is perfect .

I use pea protein by now nutrition.  Working out is more of something im afraid Not to do... I feel it takes balls to workout consistently, but also takes balls to give up n quit because you thats just an invitatation for death basically...let me add working out is a catalyst for mind growth , what good is an average mind and body. But that average body n mind will suddenly decay if you subtract out human kinds greates growth potential catalyst. Same can be said for food as being the greatest growth potential catalyst.

Editing is a form of censorship. And I do not believe in that. Besides, what have you ever posted that was offensive? Unlike some other folks on Getbig, you seem to have your shit together. Some people may not agree with your suggestions regarding diet and exercise, but who cares. What works for you is what you should do.

The bottom line is in thinking back over all your posts, if I were you, I wouldn't edit one word or even one photo you posted. Yeah the dick picture made you a star around here, but this says more about other posters on Getbig than it does about you.

I almost always stop eating when I feel full regardless of how much food is left on the plate. My parents never told me I had to "clean my plate." The way eating too much at one time makes you feel horrible is reason enough to eat modestly.

Exactly right - Agree with you on this.
