Am I starving?

Tuplatano

Hi All,

I just want to thank you all for all the feedbacks and advice. You guys are awesome; I will take a little bit from each one of you and will start implementing into my lifestyle. I plan to slowly increase my calories intake. If you want feel free to check my food diaries one month. from now I will try to send a reminder so you all can see if there is anything else that I should change.

Regarding the Elliptical. Like I said I know the calories burned shown on the machines might be off and I understand that. I normally workout at the GYM but I also have an Elliptical at home. Normally the one I have at home tell me I burned about 700 Calories in 45 Minutes while the one at the GYM tell me I burned about 500 -550 for the same amount of time. I beleive the one at the GYM is more accurate. The best way to keep track is with a personal HRM device. I actually have one but I need to get some battery for it.

Today I had a Peach Yougurt for my afternoon snack, for dinner about 45 minutes ago I made some cheeseburger with 93/7 lean beef, reduced fat provolone, a splash of ketchup, Arnold 100 Wheat Thin breast, avocado and steams vegetable on the side. Its was muy bueno.

I love avocado and peanuts, I eat a least half an avocado per week. I used to eat lots of nuts before I started but I stopped because I was having I hard time with the portion I was eating (could't stop eating them once i opened the bag). I’m planning to bring the nuts back and re-pack then into snack size so I can have them as a snack and take control of my portion. I will increase my H2O to a least 16-20OZ per day.

Again thank you all and see you soon.

Good choices

IMO yes. I would be absolutely starving if I was eating as much as you and I weight 160lbs.

Have a read of this for an absolute no BS guide to FAT LOSS (not weight loss) and body recomposition.

If you don't have time to read the above (although I HIGHLY recommend it as it is great advice) here is the summary.

Now for a final recap. The ones that are going to lose the most amount of body fat will be lifting heavy weights three times per week, increasing the weight used whenever possible, they will be doing two very intense cardio sessions where they will run with weights, sprint, swing kettlebells, lift KB’s that are over their bodyweight, do complexes that will leave them nauseous, at least twice a week, they will be eating six small meals a day, making sure they have protein in each meal. They will be eating four grams of protein per kilogram of bodyweight every day, divided into six portions. They will obtain all their carbohydrates from fruit and vegetables, ensuring they don’t eat any fruit after mid afternoon. They will avoid all manmade carbs. They will drink no calories. They will get eight hours sleep every night.

This is some really good advice.

YOU NEED TO EAT MORE. Try getting a good protein shake to supplement your calories. I use BSN protein. Granola and almonds are healthy and very calorie dense.
