GauSha, have you read my article? Also, are you losing weight on your current diet? What calories are you running?

Nice!

If you're down more than a pound, you've dropped glycogen and poo. Track your weight and your calories daily for a while. You'll be able to find the sweet spot that way.

^This. 72Monte, do you understand why we say this? Do you understand what it means to lose one pound of bodyfat in terms of caloric deficit?

Cowpimp, juggie wants your babies too for some reason.

Cowpimp, I... I think I want your babies. ♥

Do you happen to remember how many calories you ate at 140? This might surprise you, but I HIGHLY recommend skipping breakfast. I lost a significant amount of bodyfat (forty+ lbs) about ten years ago and remain sub-20% bodyfat year round - I focus most of my food into the later part of the day...

Standard Donkey, how are you assessing her diet - how many calories is she eating now? The reason I ask is because a lot of people THINK they aren't eating that much, but they are. Var won't lean her out like it'll lean out a man. Women get bigger and bulkier on var unless they're dieting...

Isn't this just an amazing diet? It's one of the few blessings available to fat people - it works - and feels - the best when you're at your fattest. You'll need some strategy as you lean out, so keep reading while you enjoy your progress on Atkins. I worked my way through this process myself...

Please do not use flax oil for this. Olive oil is rich in monounsaturated fat, the one that's been associated with helping your boys turn cholesterol into testosterone. Olive oil converts cholesterol more easily into testosterone Flax oil is high in polyunsaturated fat - but the plant form...

Olive oil. One tablespoon has about 120 testosterone-boosting calories. Toss a shot of olive oil into each of two ordinary protein shakes a day and there's 500 extra calories you won't even notice.

Research on non-bodybuilders suggests that eating fewer, but larger meals is superior for blood-sugar control. The subjects of this 2010 study included type II diabetics. 2010 research on obese male non-bodybuilders suggests also suggests fewer, but larger meals may be better for satiety. The...

I strongly disagree, on all three points. Why do you think this is a good idea, bjg?

Okay - a few things to start with. One is your calories - you and I both figure your maintenance is about 2700, and you got juicy fast, right? I'd drop down to 2700 for a week or two, train hard and well, then creep the calories up to about 3000-3200 for the remainder of your cycle. Doing...

Now that's interesting, joesmooth. I couldn't drop anything on bffm or bfl - I'm just too hungry eating that way. Atkins was the first diet I ever tried that worked. Kept me feeling fed on fewer calories - and if you eat less than you need, you lose. Pick a way to do it that doesn't make you crazy.

Fry your eggs in butter, or in the bacon grease. Remember, most of your calories should now come from fat.

I agree - protein is too high. Calories too high in general - you gained 25 lbs in five weeks - that's five pounds a week. Your bodyfat went from 10% to 15% in this time; if this is indeed accurate, the following observations hold: At 165, you carried 148.5 lbs lbm At 180, you carry 153 lbs lbm...

Guys think they're supposed to be silent? Which guys - the ones who live with their moms?

I ate steak and eggs or bacon and eggs. Fried in butter. You can have coffee - use splenda, and whipping cream instead of table cream.
