Here’s a bit of an update as to what I’m eating!
I feel that weight/fat loss has stalled, and would like some advice on where to change it.
I have also started to supplement with HRX since Wednesday, so hopefully it will help things a long a bit, but I’m not going to rely on it.
06:30 - 2 HRX caps
07:15 - 3-4 Eggs with 3 stalks of Celery.
Supps - Fish Oil, CLA, Vit E oil, Zinc, Ginko and Ginseng.
11:00 - 2 Scoop protein shake with 1 serving of Psyllium Husks.
12:30 - 2 HRX caps
13:30 - 125g - 150g of Chicken or Turkey (breast meat) with 100g-125g of either Broccoli, Lettuce, Cucumber or Cauliflower.
Supps - Fish Oil, Ginko and Ginseng.
15:30 - 1 Scoop protein shake with 25g of Almonds (not mixed in, on the side).
18:30 - 125g - 150g of either lean beef or oily fish (rainbow trout, salmon etc.) again with a 100 - 125g side of steamed veg from the list about.
Supps - Fish Oil, CLA, Ginko and Ginseng.
21:00 - 2 Scoop protein shake with 1 serving of Psyllium Husks.
I also have a 2 litre bottle of water that I have throughout the course of the day, which has two heaped tsp’s of Fibre Sure.
This is not the same water I use for my shakes.

just thought I’d drop by to see how training was going…
I’ve actually been slacking a bit in the diet over the last few weeks, but training was going pretty much OK.
I’ve been in Kenya (east Africa) over the last few weeks for a wedding. I just got home abiout 15 mins ago from a 8 hour flight.
I haven’t put on too much weight, but I haven’t hit the BF monitors yet.
Training is going to have to be as hardcore as usual, but the diet is going to have to go back to square one.
I think I’ve put on some muscle mass though, during the time when not following my diet. I was on a clean diet, but just way to many carbs and calories.
I’ll post some pictures soon from my holiday.
Hope your all well.

New numbers from this morning;
84.5 Kg
21.3% Bf
39.2% Muscle Mass
52.7% H2O
26.7 BMI
1949 BMR
I know I haven’t posted much on my own training log in a while, but I was a little pissed off because my weight and BF% went up in the week after my holiday, even though I had kept to my diet 100%.
After reading around a bit and looking into various new diets and training programs i.e. cheat to loose, get shredded diet, AD and 10x3, Superhero training, etc I decided that a massive carb up or cheat was what I needed.
On Friday just gone, I had my massive carb up day, without really keeping tabs on the number or carbs I consumed on that day, I can easily say it was between 400-500 grams. And by no means was it a totally clean carb up either.
On Saturday morning, I weighed a whopping 88Kg and was shitting myself, I thought I’d done it all wrong, I was looking really bloated and fat, like the old me. I was really stressing out.
Over the weekend I had kept to my diet until Sunday evening, when I had some Baklava for dessert, which I don’t regret one bit.
On Monday morning, I was still weighing in at 87Kg and 23.4% BF.
I was thinking, how fucking long is it going to take to drop these carbs and extra water weight from the weekend.
I got my answer this morning!
81.5 Kg / 179 Lbs
19.5% BF
40.1% LBM
54% H2O
25.7 BMI
1907 BMR

Going back to square one! Everything was going so well, until I added SURGE PWO, instead of helping with recovery, I just got fat again.
Note; Do not use SURGE unless you are lean. As CT says, it’s only for people under 15% bf. So I’m using the Glutamine recovery methods from now on. I’m going to have to earn my SURGE!
So reading over my log from the beginning, I did do quiet well. From the start till my lapse, I lost about 15kg and 6% bf.
At least I didn’t go back up to 95kg!
My weigh in last week was; 88kg 23.3%
This week it’s; 86.1kg 22.1% bf.
I’m starting with my original Phase 1 diet for 4 weeks consisting of only P+F meals, with red meat 6-7 times a week (evenings only). This is with a basic TBT
Phase 2 starts on January 5th for 3 weeks. Again consisting only of P+F meals but more white meat. Red meat only 2-3 times a week. Doing CT’s Destroying Fat program.
Watch this space!
