I am. but its pretty much impossible at home when im not buyin the food etc.

back at uni to resume the diet properly on monday.

Scott

How much you weighing now

Scales here are putting me at 117kg.

My new laptop came today, so my log will actually make sense again. Eventually most of the keyboard stopped working and i had to try and type my log without the use of alot of keys, hence the weird posts.

BACK AT UNI!

NEW LAPTOP - old one i broke the H,G,D, N and M keys. hence the fucked up posts to my log over the past 2 weeks.

While at home I have maintained my weight pretty much even though i let my diet slip a bit. I played 3 rugby matchs and i can honestly say that i am fitter now than i was when playing international rugby. I play prop but for anyone that knows about rugby, I was switched to flanker at halftime in two of the matchs and that just doesnt happen. :smiley:

Last night i put in my order for supps to last me untill september.
I bought:
15kg whey
10kg casein
2kg BCAA
500g Beta analine
1000 triple strength fishoil
120 super strength A-Z vit
270 ZMA

This should last me at 3-4 shakes a day, 10 fishoil, 3 ZMA and 1-2 multis.

Back to the grind then!

Any reason for eating so frequently?

It looks like you’re overdoing it, to me. Except for maybe post-post workout, I’d get my meals at about 3-4 hour intervals.

As always, make sure your portion sizes are the right size for the Calorie totals you are shooting for.

Other than that, good to see you back on the grind.

the frequent eating… are you talking about today for meal 3-5.

that was becasue i was working from 2100 - 00.00 and i wasnt going to be able to eat or drink any water so i was kind of getting it all in before i went. leaving me with one shake after and some zma then bed

portion sizes will have to be addressed.

But im very very happy with this week. ive put on 2 kilos over 2 weeks of basically nothing but cardio and 2 squat sessions. and not being strict on the diet. but i come back and destroy my clean PB and fucking annilate my Bench PB.

i hope those pesky 2 kilos will fall off over the next week as im back low carbing it and hope its water.

i look the exact same in pics over the last 3 weeks thou.

Figured as much. Do your best to avoid shoveling in too much food at once, though, even IF your total Calories for the day stay the same. I don’t care what anyone says; I think it impairs fat loss.

That’s awesome. Just remember don’t chase two rabbits - you’re after fat loss here. Note I am NOT downplaying your strength gains - you gotta take any and every PR you can get, especially while dieting.

BUT don’t let the addictive nature of gaining strength effect your eating, that’s all I’m saying. Its easy to add in an extra meal here and there under the justification of getting stronger. Just some words from someone who’s been there before.

I’m sure they will. Its all a learning process and there will be bumps along the way - just gotta get right back to it, which you are, so good work.

I agree aswell… But its encouraging to note that im getting stronger and lighter/leaner. I thought the increased cardio would affect my strength greatly. but it hasnt so far.

Once i get this week over i will be back into my usual split/routine/diet. Ive actually groewn to enjoy 30 mins on the xtrainer or bike. :smiley:

Don’t get too used to it ;o)

Funnily enough I’m seeing great results with 20 secs on/20 secs off HIIT on the x-trainer at the minute (I usually last about 6 or 7 mins but that’s cause the sprints are as fast as possible). I’ll be doing my first photo shoot in about 6-8 weeks.

Anyway… enough about me. Good luck with your continued weight loss.
