Diet Corner

[gemc1981]

Ok so by popular demand (and by that I mean mine, @Kate1976 and @1Tonne) this thread is for anyone who is cutting, dieting, prepping etc although you don't have to be actually showing to join in the fun *cough*.

Feel free to moan, whine, whinge, ask for advice, ask for motivation, share the highs and lows of it all here. No need for any doses of MTFU either, get it off your chest.

If you have any tips for dieters, share them here, if you are struggling then come get a virtual kick up the ass and back on track or a "there there poppet" whatever is needed

I shall start with a moan - been wanting chocolate this week. No particular reason since its not a trigger for me, just wanted it.

Went to baby tescos last night to get some chicken and all the Easter **** was out. Will power went to fuk, carefully selected some foxes chocolate covered biscuit yummies and took them with my chicken to the self service till.

Last ounce of will power, paid for my chicken, left the biscuits there and went home feeling sort of proud. This morning - weekly weigh in - stayed the fuking same. Pissy. As. You. Like. *cross face*

Try not for focus on the scales to much, because with the weights you have been lifting lately you are surly gaining muscle!

Well I'm not starting the fun til April 1st . Nothing fancy, just going to see what can get away with. Kate forced me into a diet off..just I don't plan on stepping on stage.

If anyone wants to help me along the way, feel free. Currently sitting at 218lbs. Expect to be this weight in 4 weeks time as o continue to fiddle with diet. If I make it to the end, pics will be put here. There's an update pic in my journal if people want to see current fat..I mean, condition. It's not pretty lol.

Circa 50lbs to come off and 4 months to do it. Yes, I'm dreaming.

Guess I can atleast enjoy the next 4 weeks.

Baby steps eh mate.....look to lose max 2lbs a week perhaps.
So that's 32lbs....and just in time for summer

If current ideas go to plan, that should be do able by diet alone for first few weeks atleast.

Not planning on any keto or fancy stuff. Just slight trim of calorie intake.

Sitting at circa 2500 cals at the moment, with majority being pre and post workout. If I can avoid Cardio then I bloody well will.

 

[Hilly]

easy one.

try and stay in bed later of possible. eat a solid breakfast then dont take any food. if your busy u wont notice the hunger. keep cals low till you train. today id taken 850 or so by gym at 7pm and only that high because i hypod after soya coffe at 4pm so ate some oats.

then hit a chinese buffet and eat healthy. total cals still sub 2000 and im full as a gone, hit 250 grams protein easy and will sleep very well

Not ideal for a prep diet but for those trying to get in decent nick more than doable with a little self control.

for example

cardio at 8:30 then stretch and shower. done by 9:15. 200g gammon slow cooked with veg and mouthfull fish oil

uni work till 1:30. sorted jobs till 2:30. slammed a shake and PB. took mum for coffee. 4:30 sorted jobs for hour. sugars droped so hit bowl oats.

gym at 7. home for 8:15 and hit shake

then chinese buffet for 9.

I'm sorry but i couldn't resist

 

[Guest]

self control? whats that?
once i pop on something that i like, i cant stop id rather just go without!
anyawy am off to bed so this hunger goes away at least till tomorrrow!

 

[Guest]

Yeah but it makes me so cross cos I dont see it as progression although I am getting smaller cos none of my clothes fit anymore. Had to borrow a dress off my mate who is a 12. Though got my shoulders stuck in one strappy number

The diet gods will do this often......look em clean in the face and say 'fuk you'

I did - together with some other choice words and then stropped to the kitchen, nothing but on plan food there, so flounced back upstairs again

I'm in!

Keto treating me well, but I've had a tough couple of weeks with my dad being seriously ill in intensive care, so only had 3 training sessions and waiting around at the hospital with the family means crisps, cookies and chocs have all crept in.

Still weighing 19st 6lb so haven't put on, just stayed the same.

Old man out of intensive today, all going the right direction. Also had a great session this morning and back on track with the keto!
