Maybe you really are hungry though and your metabolism has gotten better/quicker or whatever.

Maybe you really are hungry though and your metabolism has gotten better/quicker or whatever.

I mean I've been thinking my metabolism has changed because when ever I go ham those weeks I usually still have same weight loss or it stalls and the following week I have a bigger weight loss because I let go of excess water weight. I dont think i;ve been feeling this way because my metabolism is getting weaker,now I`m starting to think its working more efficiently, because I end up taking huge dumps right after going ham opposed to my body just holding it in for a day like when I normally do IF.

What is stopping you from running 10 miles TODAY AND Monday? Don't put it off for tomorrow.

Had a nice shake before I went in on some shoveling.  Still got a lot left to shovel.  Friggin 28 inches...

  That as well as some calisthenics was my workout for today.  State is pretty much shut down.

12 oz almond milk
1 serving peanut butter
1/4th cup steel cut oats (grounded it up in the magic bullet)
1 1/2 frozen banana
2 strawberries
handful spinach
1/2 scoop whey

Listen to this man. Been making this minus the spinach as a breakfast shake and it gets my day going. I add Greek yogurt too. I've alternated between bananas, pineapples, raspberries, blueberries, cherries, strawberries, and mangos.

Nice, glad that the shakes are working out for you bro!

Haha well it's hard for me to gain weight so I have to be a little extreme with my diet. I've gone from 157 to 168 in 8 weeks though so it's working, but sometimes I get so sick of food

i'm sure that shake is good as hell (idk about that spinach though). its just funny to me cause im trying to cut weight right now, so on a good day, i'll eat 1600 calories. i started around 180 and i'm down to 159. its not even that bad but hearing stuff like that just makes me laugh at what im doing.

why only half a scoop of whey? i used to have something similar to that shake but id throw coffee in there in the mornings to just have everything at once lol

I try not to do too much whey unless necessary.  Since I didn't throw any yogurt in this one, I figured I'd add a lil protein especially with the long morning of shoveling I had ahead of me.

Made another one this morning.  No strawberries and spinach this time though.  Drank it at like 7 am and I've been good.  Probably won't eat other than a snack til later this afternoon.

Just did a 15 mile bike ride. Probably more than that.

Shake after
Milk (didn't have any Almond Milk left)
Peanut Butter
Frozen Bananas
Steel Cut Oats
Cocoa Powder

I made too much

 

[DCAllAfrican]

I suggest EVERYONE listen to Bill Simmons' podcast with Arnold Schwarzenegger

They talk about

Him sneaking off of the military base to compete in the Jr. Olympia contest
Famous athletes he worked out with in the 70s. (Chuck Norris, Sonny Liston, Wilt Chamberlin, Superstar Billy Graham)
A lot of stories about Andre the Giant and Wilt Chamberlin
How people used to be ashamed of admitting that they worked out
How lifting weights was something that athletes were told to stay away from due to ignorance
How lucky he was that he has done all that he has done
Talks about his movies.

One of the better BS Report interviews but you know I view the BS Report as the Gospel.

Sneak preview of the interview:

[freeze]

[ootherocoo]

Did arms this morning. Seeing some solid progress.

8 weeks ago

Today

Eating in a surplus is getting easier, but still a chore.

 

[luckyluchiano]

Starting Monday I`m gonna take it up a notch with the dieting and workout especially since I`m gonna start studying for GMAT. No more IDC IDC IDC moments until maybe 4th of july lol. My "Cheat" days I`m just gonna do IF and eat to maintenance or under. The last 50 is the hardest.

 

[r-man jam]

Ever since i got layed off from work 2 weeks ago ive been eating like crap. Gotta get myself back on track starting tomorrow. 

Said that last week also

Time to start my days out with cardio. I eat too much to just rely on lifting weights to lose weight.
