Thanks for all the replies so far. I absolutely have no trouble eating a variety of things. I love brussel sprouts, beans, broccoli, etc. I am wondering do I need to stay away from saturated fat on the 40-30-30 diet? I know on keto it wasn't a big deal. Matter of fact it was encouraged. With my 5 ft 8 in height, age 47,…

I was going to focus on diet for fat loss also. I just read that circuit training is a go to for fat loss and calorie burn.

Weighed it all on my food scale or used the label. I logged it all today. @GaleHawkins nowhere near 3,000 calories a day. If I did that I would be big as a house. Lol. Ok. Be patient, work out, log all foods.

So, today consumed 1,735 calories. I did a dumbbell circuit training workout this morning. Then, around 1:00, I carried 21 pieces of pool furniture about 15 yards. So, that was roughly 15-20 trips 15 yards and back to get the other pieces. If that is overeating including that amount of exercise, not sure what more I can do.

So, walking at incline on 12 doesn’t add any more effect? Then, why do it?

I want to thank you all. I have not tracked my food but have weighed it. Honestly, I eat probably less than I should for a 5 foot 8 inch tall guy with 230 pounds. My arms are decent, not huge, but not flabby at all. My legs, women have told me they wish they had my legs. Lol. My lower torso/belly is my major problem area.…

I doubt that is muscle mass. Here’s the thing that puzzles me. I eat like instated above. Portion sizes are under control. I weigh what I eat. I get in about 10,000-12,000 steps a day at work which is about 5 miles at least which says about 600 calories burned. Then the 3.5 miles at the gym in one hour and that is another…

My meals look like: Breakfast: shake with unsweetened coconut milk, half avocado, teaspoon natural peanut butter, collagen, scoop protein powder Lunch: salad with spring mix, cucumbers, shredded cheese, and homemade Italian dressing Supper: chicken, salmon, pork, or steak with asparagus or cauliflower or squash or Brussels…

I know it’s only an estimate on the treadmill and my steps tracker on my phone show calories burned. I weigh my food. I track my intake. Some say I am under eating. In a way, I get that but how do u build arms legs chest and back and lose the belly? Also, I wonder if my heart rate is too high?

I will do what I can. Not sure how to add friends. I will share whatever. I have lost 40 pounds since August 2016. I am in need of some friends also to help me stay on track. Are any of you on Instagram? There are tons of keto stuff on there. Thanks.
