People focus too much on macro percentages because they hear all this IIFYM garbage which makes them think they can pig out on ice cream etc and trade macros as they wish. What people forget is there are good carbs (fibre) and bad carbs (sugar), good fats (Unsat) and bad fats (sat and trans). Low carb is for fast initial…

Unfortunately its down to genetics - some people have massive fat loss and don't have loose skin (just look at the fat to fit transformations thread on bodybuilding.com). As far as i am aware all you can do is use body scrub, drink plenty of water and give it a long time

Phd diet whey bars are better than Quest (5g more protein and less fat), and are easy to get in the uk in most nutrition shops, holland and barrett and tesco

You have quite a few days at around 850 calories. Quite often your calories are around 1000 which is still way too low. If you don't log food properly you are only deceiving yourself
-
or zig zag an ECA stack lol
-
nothing wrong with a high fat diet (simply calories in, calories out) so long as you avoid sats and trans fat.Carry on what you're doing and be patient - you have already made a good loss so far
-
This! Why are you taking expensive protein shakes when you are trying to lose weight? Eat some real food
-
Not surprised you are not losing weight - your diet is appalling. Your calories are far too low - some days you are having less than 850 calories, in addition to doing an intensive exercise program. Your body will be clinging on to its fat for dear life and burning muscle for fuel which in turn will lower your metabolism.…

yes cico - macro ratios don't matter other than to say some macros i.e protein and fat are more satiating than carbs. Low carb will lead to initial fast weight loss but in the long term the results on a calorie deficit diet are the same

I went low carb last year in addition to regular lifting and cardio and lost weight very quickly but a lot of it was muscle loss (not good). I had no energy and it was a struggle to get through a day at work and stay awake, so it simply wasn't sustainable for me.

Eat less

They are evil if you're allergic to them !

cayenne pepper and smoked paprika - great taste, colour and zero calories. - Stick it in the George Foreman to reduce the calories from this fatty fish further, even though they are the good oils. The cayenne also helps raise the metabolism.
-
be careful with chia - it makes lots of people very ill (severe allergic reactions, Hives and also incredible stomach pain)

OP you are eating an awful lot of sugar
-
For me its plain food, back to basics, and a very easy way to lose fat. i.e porridge, salad, meat and 2 veg, nothing processed, minimal carbs, high mono fat, few snacks, only drink water and milk BTW love that 50's style you've got going on
-
You can't choose where you lose fat from. Have realistic goals otherwise you will fail. Lifestyle change not a race. The girl in your "ideal" picture has very low body fat, might take you 6-9 months minimum with strict discipline to achieve that. Also the more you lose the harder it gets. You won't do it in 6 weeks
-
reflex instant whey is half the price and better
-
Very unlikely to be able to lose that amount of weight in 6 weeks. Your proposed diet isn't great either. If you're trying to lose fat why honey and peanut butter which are calorie dense foods with little satisfaction? Ditch the carbs - no bread, pasta or any other starchy/sugar foods. Might be better eating whole food…

A standard chicken wing is about 100 calories so for a buffalo wing I would guess at 150 cals. With the sauce (which is full of sugar) add another 50 cals per wing, so probably around 200 cals per wing in total. chicken wings are high calorie for the actual amount of meat you get due to the amount of skin and fat…

never had a spotter in 10 years, always lift alone, and in and out of gym as quick as I can

This man speaks the truth

dead lifts, squats and bent over rows

eat less move more

your math is wrong, you haven't lost 0.6 lbs you have lost 4.8 lbs. 206 - 201.2 = 4.8 bearing in mind it wont be all fat you've lost but also water weight and some muscle, 0.28 lbs per inch is probably about right
-
Eat more calories (protein and fat - mono, but low carb <100g) and lift very heavy weights, to lose body fat, forget the long cardio and do 20 mins HIITS instead - gym weights and HIITS minimum 4 times a week and the fat will drop off.
-
no need for wasting money on supplements just eat clean, above maintenance and lift heavy This woman should inspire you http://www.stinaschoice.com/

Yes Turkish get ups, lie on the floor and press the KB above your chest, straight arm raises or pull the KB to your chin.- look on you tube there's loads of good vids. Take 2 KB's if you can - one for single arm and 1 for 2 handed, and of course enjoy your holiday
