Thread: Life's Losing It: A former fatties guide to becoming a former fattie

Nutrient breakdown should look something like this:

Nutrients Per Day: (Non-Carb Up)
Cal. (g)
Fat 1296 144
Protein 943 236
Carbs 118 29
Total 2357

Carb Up Day:
Fat 142 16
Protein 943 236
Carbs 1760 440
Total 2838


I have yet to actually break down my meals and I'm not worried about it during the first two weeks. I will be cooking all of my meals (Carb-up day aside) once a week on Sunday.

Nice thread name! good luck!

Good luck

Weight: 221 (-5lbs)

Incline Bench (DB) - 4x70*8
Cable Row - 4x180*8
Flat Bench - 225*6, 185*6
Pulldown - 140*12, 160*10
Shld Press - 50*10, 40*9, 35*8
BB Curl - 40*12
Tri. Pushdown - 60*6, 50*3, 40*10

Those weights were ridiculously low after the first two exercises..

You've got the traps already.

With the right diet and enough time you could be shredded. Your overall make up shows that the fat distribution patterns can easily be changed. Good luck.

Yeah I asked if I could post the results of last year's cut on here but PC or Prince didn't want me to. I was very cut then (@185). Now I have at least another 20lbs of muscle to build on. I went from benching 225 to 325 from Sept -> March. Squating 185 to 375 and I had just started dead lifting and got up to 465. So the muscle has to be there.

Your previous weightloss is great, I'm sure you'll have no problem doing it again. Good luck

Sticking to the diet well. In keto now, can tell by the smell.... Train tomorrow and will end up switching to UD 2.0 at some point.

Weight: 219 (-7)

Deadlifts: 2x315*10
Legcurls: 2x140*12
Calf Raise: 2x90*12
Bench: 2x175*10 (lol....)
WG Row: 3x115*12
Sh. Press: 2x30*12
UG Pulldown: 2x85*12

Looking good brosephus. Serious question; why did you throw bench press in with the last wo? Seems out of place to me, but I am usually wrong.


Good luck homie.

Your breath smells worse and your urine tends to have a distinct odor and color. You can't tell from the urine if you're knocking back a couple gallons a day but generally it isn't hard to tell.

that is INTERESTING! I might be in keto too then or went into keto this week.... Good to know. I always carry breathe mints, guess now is a reason to stock up.

Deadlifts: 2x315*10
Legcurls: 2x140*12
Calf Raise: 2x225*12
Bench: 3x175*10
WG Row: 3x115*12
Sh. Press: 2x30*12
UG Pulldown: 2x85*12

Didn't measure weight because I had to train at a gym out of town. Started the carb up today and going UD 2.0 starting next week. Can't really tell much from the Cyanostane but it has only been a week so... we'll see?

Weight: 222 (So down 4 lbs of fat)

Leg Press: 3*15
Leg Curl: 3*15
Bench: 3*15
Row: 3*15
Lateral Raise: 3*15
Calf Raise: 3*15
Bicep Curl: 2*15
Tricep Pushdown: 2*15

Repeat once

So I think I'm feeling the cyanostane kicking in. Might just have been the carb load though... We shall see!

Jeebus!

And you're doing keto? This is a journal to watch. Seems like the weight is falling off you, too.

Yeah, running keto and UD 2.0 now. Looking forward to the power workout, I miss going heavy.
