From 307lbs to 10% body fat - The Fat Loss Extravaganza!

Options
HI! I am not here to waste time I will give you a summary of each aspect of the log. I've noticed tons of new topics posted about strength training and what to do. This will hopefully add value to the forum as I log my journey of losing fat with a focus on getting stronger.

About me Cliffs:
Use to be 307lbs! (pics below)
I'm 22 years old, been training seriously for about 1.5 years
Lost all of my weight quickly (about 10 months) - shut down my met rate and had to reverse diet
Workout at home - will add pics of my gym as times goes by
I am sure you will learn A LOT about me, if you follow my log
I am not a certified personal trainer who gets to help many others who were in my same situation reach their goals


Objective Cliffs:
Purpose of log is to track my journey to 10% body fat


Tools I'll be using:
Handheld bf% reader, not accurate but if used consistently I can gauge
myfitnesspal to track my daily macro-nutrient intake


What to expect daily:
Workout details
Macro totals - I'll post screen shots of my diary for each day.
food porn
notes/commentary
lawlz

My diet:
My current diet is 6 days a week:
40f
225cho
225pro

1 day a week:
40f
375cho
225pro


My Strength Training:
Following Max OT with 20 mins of LISS before each weight training session burning 120 calories. I train 5 days per week. On 1 of my off days I do 1 cardio session and burn 400 calories.

Current Stats:
Weight- 190.4bs
BF- 14%


Please, post, add comments, ask questions, offer advice...
