AMAZING, well done. So encouraging

Inspirational Kristin, congrats. You are awesome x

op if you're interested in getting more info on the ECA stack you could read about it in Lyle Mcdonald's rapid fat loss book. He covers the topic there. I think things like this are not even worth thinking about unless you have you have the more major aspects of your intake and exercise sorted.(I'm not saying they're even…

dunno how I missed this post before. I've told you before, but just incase you've forgotten or you're in any doubt, you are inspirational!

OP, I don't think increasing your water intake is going to make a difference. You haven't mentioned any thing about your calorie intake. You need to be in a deficit to lose fat, it doesn't matter what your macros are, you can still overeat. It is strange that if you've dropped your carbs significantly from the amount that…

Love it. Congratulations on your achievements and also the realisation and strength to abandon the scale!

Are you for real? You really need to address your nasty unhealthy attitude. Body shaming not cool, ever!

Thank you so much, I am currently printing pictures of parasites and pasting them as wallpaper on my kitchen. I knew there had to be something that would aid my self control. I mean people suggest raspberry ketones and garcinia cambogia, but these pictures seems a more natural way of suppressing appetite.

Awesome, not much else that can be said! Congratulations x

Don't have it with water, because too much water can kill you and that's science

This is awesome. Congratulations. Do you think they can just tell from looking at you what weight you are or do they produce a pair of scales if they think you're border line? I think we should do away with weighing in stones, it always sticks in my head that I have to drop into the next stone and then I also have to think…

This is so awesome, you look amazing. Congatulations, thanks for the inspiration

Inspiring. So encouraged to see a post promoting successful body recomposition, despite minimal scale movement. More motivation to throw the scales away! You look awesome, congrats

Congratulations, you look really great and it's brilliant to hear about how much your health has improved

Wow, congratulations. This is truly inspirational

Could be a new improved version

What about raspberry ketones, there's a great groupon offer, seems to be on constantly

bumping to save, thanks for posting

Thanks Sara this makes sense. I guess it's the same thing I always found difficult, only on a far higher level. If I was on my plan, I'd be focussed, and then I would find it difficult just to loosen the reigns slightly, say at Christmas or if I was away somewhere. Although a big part of that was because in my head there…

Yes Sara I've seen it happen to guys in my gym. Couldn't quite understand why it happened as like you say they were always so focussed on tracking, just wondered is it a case of being all or nothing, once you start to reverse is it harder to maintain control. Is it psychological, physical, bit of both?

priority is losing fat, goals are becoming lean and strong. It's not that I had intended to do this diet, but I had read a lot of Lyle McDs stuff and then out of interest read this and as it coincided with the Christmas period I started wondering if it would be a logical plan to follow for a very short time to recover from…

Thank You Sidesteel Appreciate that you obviously have a clear understanding of this specific diet and your points are very relevant. I guess my thoughts during my original post kind of overlooked the fact that the strict adherence to both the diet, and the guidelines given for moving back to maintenance would obviously be…

Hey, do you mean it's a false assumption that the benefits out way the negatives or that it's unlikely an individual will recover from the negatives whilst benefiting from the positives, or both?

At first I was depressed, now I'm over it and happy to have a realistic reminder!

I'm actually already freaking out about holiday food. Last year, no joke I gained 18lbs from the last week in December to the end of January. Now I know that people will say it wasn't fat gain etc, but let me tell you I was eating so much food it was actually unbelievable. Probably around 5500 cals a day, so yeah I gained…

great write up, awesome, well done

I enjoyed reading this, I like that you made it clear these are things that worked for you. There are some points that I know wouldn't suit me, but others that I found helpful. You've done really well, congratulations

You look really good. Your pictures are great for seeing a true comparison. Congratulations

too funny

So true, even if it seems very obvious. I have a friend, she is so skinny in her legs and has no bum, but a lot of excess weight round her middle. She gets asked daily
