Oh man, Carl’s Jr is where diets go to die.

They can, incidentally, “low-carb” most of their burgers lettuce wrap them. which, because their buns are apparantly cooked in butter, saves about a billion cals. Knocking off mayo saves 100 too.

Their commercials are the only thing good about Carl’s Jr. I was very disappointed in the taste of their burgers and sides. The teriyaki sauce was bland and tasteless and the mushroom burger was so messy, I did not even want to eat it. I think I am going back to my regular diet for now.

It is amazing to me that you are losing any weight at all the way you cheat.
Why don’t you just bring protein powder and nuts to work and whenever the craving for some
sort of crap comes you just eat that instead? How hard is that do do?

Actually I did just that today - total of 4 scoops of vanilla Metabolic Drive and some cashews and macadamia nuts :slight_smile:

Week 26 measurements vs. week 24 measurements.

Weight 195.5 lbs (-2 lbs)

Waist normal 35.75" (+0.5") WTF, maybe I measured a little tight last time?
Waist vacuum 32.5" (+0.5") Not good
Waist push out 37" (+1") This is BAD.

Although I lost 2 pounds between week 24 and week 26, it seems that I have actually gained in ALL of my waist measurements. Muscle loss and even some fat gain? I don’t know what to think.
