No, what kind of idiot would assume that? I assumed that since you are clearly greater than 18% BF (my guess 25+) you might have a problem.
that was supposed to say 25 plus
weight as of 6/9/06
268.2 lbs. so im losing weight slowly. next weigh in is 6/16/06.
one little thing - consider swapping your energy bar with some real food/snack, whatever it would be (fruit, some nuts)!
you’ll see accelerated results of your efforts!!!
ill take that into consideration.

Well done with the diet. I’ve not read through what you’ve last posted but I saw some comments on your calorie intake and would like to put my two penneth in.
I too have been on a circa 1500 calorie high protein diet with LOADS or green veggies and good fats, only carbs at breakfast in the form of a smoothie with cottage cheese and had great results with negligable muscle loss. Granted I am on HOT-ROX (now Extreme!)
I think that a lot of trolls are quick to tell others what they are doing wrong and for me the only way I found out how my body responds to food was to follow the advice on here from the respectable people and my what my own body tells me.I’m a total Endomorph and put fat on just thinking about unclean food!
Now, I’ve tried lots and lots of diets but I think it was a Berardi post where he said do something for 2 weeks to see if you get any results and then adapt it. I’ve done this with my diet and have gone from 252 lbs @ 40% fat to 210 lbs @ 14% fat. I’d like to get to 10% and then do some real hypertrophy which of course in a calorie deficit is supposed to be impossible.
That said according to the figures posted above (& the way I look!) I’ve lost tonnes of fat and gained a fair bit of muscle whilst dieting. Albeit this has been my ‘honeymoon’ period back into training (I was in the RAF and very fit/defined at the time but not built) I’ve had great success from ‘overfeeding / cheating’ onceish a week, I try to follow the 7 rules and eat clean 90% of the time.
According to the figures my BMR is something like 2500 plus 60% for being active but let me tell you if I ate all those calories I put it on!! (I started there and worked my way down.) I believe it totally depends on what your underlying infrastructures built like. I was a right fat porker with little muscle, Berardi does say that it is possible for us fatties to drop lots of it without losing too much muscle.
I think the trouble comes when you get to be muscled and your body is used to being leaner and then you drop your calories it’s going to go to where it’s easiest to get it and that’ll probably be all the hard worked for muscle in non fat people but for me there’s alway been a generous amount of lard to choose from! I also try not eat after 7pm at the moment.
The point is, these forums are great and I’ve found Biotest’s products to be amazing for me. Find what works, measure your results and go forwards!
Keep it up and keep it regular and moderated the rest will just happen, that’s been my experience.
