V-Diet Log, Second Time Around

Ah easter, time of candy. Mom gave me a bunch of candy and snacks because I was looking too thin and needed them. These promptly got thrown away. Why do we celebrate a religious holiday with candy and feasts? This baffled me throughout the day. The time I celebrate with food is when I just got done with a wicked workout and want to build some muscle. /endrant

All the gyms are closed today =/ I need to get a workout in but have to wait till tommorrow when school starts back up. I actually am going to enjoy the start of this quarter as the questions of what are you drinking leads to why are you doing this diet etc and seems like the ladies like the willpower and dedicated to get in shape =][/quote]

Chicks think you’re a weirdo for only eating one solid meal a week, then all of a sudden you get to spring break with abs and they want to go skinny dipping with you 8-]

I may or may not have experienced that personally ;]

Yeah it’s funny how quick of a turn around they can make. Your going to die without eating mor…wanna come over?

Measurements

Neck 15 1/4"
Chest 37 1/4"
Below belly button 35 1/4"
Thigh 23 1/2"
Arms 13 3/4"
Calves 16"

Grew a tiny bit all over (never measured that part of my stomach before so who knows)

When do we get to see new pics?

-dizzle

Loading them up right now, took them with my new cellphone so dunno how the quality is on it yet, if not good enough I’ll borrow one of my roommates.

First off, I really hope it gets warm sometime up in Ohio so I don’t blind the masses with my reflective-like white skin.

Second off, I haven’t compared pictures yet so I dunno how I look in contrast with those.

Side

You look a lot better, man, especially from the side.

-dizzle


back, I think the picture quality came out fine but lemme know with some input.

The side one really does show alot of change, that one makes me happy. I look partially retarded in my face on picture one, how does one pose for a picture on weight loss?

Looks like my love handles are gonna be the last things that go, even in high school when I had a flat stomach and some sort of abs showing, I still had those sweet love handles that plague me.

Also can anyone comment on approximate BF percentage, I know this is difficult but is around 16.5 sound close to accurate?

I’m interested in the effects of Superfood on the diet as I enter week 2 and 3. I know it makes me feel better in general but the do not know the effects on the diet.

Superfood will just make you healthier overall, to my understanding. It will just have the same effects as veggies and fruit: improve your immune system and blood work and decrease acidity levels in your body from training.

I’d say you’re between 15-18% btw.

I love spring quarter at college, all the girls are nice and tan even though they’re forced to wear hoodies and sweats currently, they still look nice =]. Hopefully by the time it’s actually warm enough to wear short sleeve clothing (Few weeks) I’ll look damn good.

Trying out a program I dl’d, as the photos are from 2 diff cameras dont sync up exactly but a faceoff it is. I like how in the first one my stomach sticks out farther than my chest then viola! a velocity diet and there is a switch

I think the most drastic change is actually in your face, which is great because that’s what everyone notices first about you anyway. Your face was kinda chubby and you had a second chin comin in, and now that’s all cleared up and you look a lot better.

As I told Samurai in his thread, you should really use the same lighting. Using different lighting every time will compromise the effectivness of the pics.

Those were from 2 different cameras so every picture from now on should be the same. It’s funny I thought I was pretty skinny in the first picture from the first one but now it’s plain awful. I imagine this set of pictures will look the same to me here in a little less than 4 weeks.

My new phone surfs T-Nation pretty quickly so that’ll make the classes a little bit easier. I was just in a 160 person class and not one hot girl, no jokes. 160 frickin people and not one attractive girl.

yeah, i’pm torn on that, like if i go back to the lighting where it looks yello, ALL my side by sides will be differnt lighting, soo yeah, i’ll figure that out.

But yeah, Great progress. the first place that really drew my attention was your face. and yes, i agree teh side shot shows the most progress i think

I really wish I had pictures at my fattest, I might be able to advertise some product I didn’t use to lose 50 pounds in 3 weeks or whatever they claim nowadays!

and I’m out to class, 21 hours on a quarter system sucks =/ I’ll post workouts for next few days tonight if I have time or tomorrow

Update from class. The carb cravings have subsided and feel like im running efficently on the shakes and flax. weighed myself today and am at 172 so down 4.5 pounds. ill post pictures and measurements again on day 8 and keep the updates weekly from then. that being said I don’t expect much progress in the few days but who knows.

Congrats to dizz for finishing up his v-diet.
