Trying Adkins in Japan (PFA / BCA goal)

CMcD1445

Hello!

Starting with a confession... I'm not new here. I am however trying something new and I thought a post here would be a good kick start.

I'm giving the Adkins diet a try. I've had good success with other low carb diets in the past, so now I'm looking to try something that's more of a "system".

My goal is to improve my PFA score. Specifically my BCA (Body Composition Analysis). My smart goal is to reduce 2" from my abdominal circumference by June 1st, 2017. (CY17 PFA Cycle 1, if you're in the same group)

The challenge to my goal is i live in Japan. (I'm from Michigan, but I'm in Japan for work). My colleagues here love rice and other high carb pastries, so I'm constantly at war with this (even when I'm not dieting!)

I've been using iHerb.com to deliver high protein stuff and my local grocery store to get eating, but they are rather limited. (I tried bodybuilding.com, but the shipping is outrageous!)

I'm always looking for friends with likeminded goals, looking forward to hearing your comments!

Cheers!

Chris
