Oh hell yes! Keep it up! In my experience, what you *think* you look like and what you *actually* look like are often two totally different things. Having gone from 320+lbs to ~230lbs, I can tell you from first hand that it will take a while for your mental image to catch up. I had to regrain 20lbs and start feeling like…

Fruit, Lara bar, something with protein, etc.. Our bodies are seeking carbs, and you should supply just the right amount to offset what was spent working out. I won't view my workouts as a weightloss technique, they're more about body conditioning. I lose weight by eating healthy foods and maintaining a caloric deficit…

^^ 1.5lbs of bacon per day? And that's the norm? That's dedication. I think the most I've eaten is 1lb of bacon, and I didn't enjoy doing it. Don't get me wrong, I *do* love bacon! But not that much... I think I was having a very lazy day that day, and had a full pack of bacon already cooked in the fridge.

Anyone else? I'm friendly!

I agree with this 100%. I am sticking to the 5% carb "Keto" approach for a few more weeks, then I will start introducing more carbs for workout energy, etc. I still think low-carb is best for those who are completely sedentary and have fully functional internal organs ;)

I think "starvation mode" is becoming the new sensational thing to report about (or find old reports about). This guy, Dr Gary Taubes, is suggesting a whole new way of thinking about how we gain weight. Its kinda long, but totally worth the time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTUspjZG-wc This is the basis of the "Keto"…

Thanks for all the adds, everyone!
