Good Day Getbig,
For the past 7 weeks, I have been in the gym livin' the dream.
Because I hit the age of 30 in Jul, I decided that the 30s will be a decade I will get back in shape (physical and cardiovascularly). The 20's have been very reckless like most, drinking, drugs, irresponsible use of juice, not excerising and enjoying too much saturated fats.
I started at 272lbs and around 28%-30% bf
I'm down to 242 and like I said before, my goal is 185-195 or whenever I get around 8%-10% bf. Whichever comes first. The goal is not to gain muscle or be huge anymore. That dream is done and health and being asthetically pleasing are the priorities.
Thus far I've done everything naturally, only using, protein powder and occasionally a legal fat burner.
Like I said before, I'm not a big eater, so I have yet to get 5-6 meals in per day. I try to go with four small meals protein between 40 and 50 grams per serving, high fats, and very low to no carbs. (Keto diet). My meals consisted of Talapia, ground turkey and sometimes chicken and brocolli and lettuce for salads. I have a cheat meal one time per week where I would focus on carbs, my stomach cannot hold much food anymore so I never got to eat as much as I want. I did not keep the diet ultra clean, sometimes I used a caesar dressing, or ate some candy every now and then. I drank water and diet sodas.
I've been training light and doing cardio 45 min per day on the stairclimber and as of the past two weeks have been running two miles per day.
My plan was when I dropped 30lbs, I would initiate phase II meaning, t-3 and clen (no ECA, it makes me too jittery). This will bump up the fatburning process. I will top out at t-3 125mg per day and clen 160mcg per day. (Yes, I've used that high before with excellent results) If I feel I'm losing too much muscle, I'll add in some oral winny just for that purpose.
I feel alot better, cheek bones are showing again, I see veins coming through on the forearms and minor separation in various bodyparts. Clothes fit much better, Arms down to a 19.2, neck and calves down to 17.
Thanks for all the support. No pics will be posted until the goal has been reached and there will be before and after pics. Any suggestions will be considered.
