Don't let go Jack

I'm British but currently living in Lithuania (Vilnius)

Im gonna say YES. He's in good shape so maybe we can have a gym date. Obviously sex is out of the question as I'm sure we're both straight, but he looks strong so i may not have a say on that matter.

I was over 17.5st (245lb), someone told me about counting calories so I lived on Veg, Chicken, Rice and Fish and Protein Shakes. Then I used an elliptical trainer because I couldn't run for more than 5 mins but I could do 1 hour on the elliptical trainer (x-trainer). I lost over 3.5st (50lbs) FAST!! That was 2011 vs 2013.…

Hello Rabbot, Basically I was born with chronic asthma, so I do cardio because it keeps my lungs strong. I also really enjoy it. Legs because I find I burn more fat when I train legs than upper body. For me its working. When my body fat % is lower I will hit the upper body. I'm trying to really focus and tailor my…

Sorry to rant, just checked these ratios and they are the same as a ketogenic diet. Hopefully this is a good thing.

If I weigh approx 200lbs my maximum protein should be 220g. Round that down to 200 cause I don't need to max out. So with 90g of protein less, that's 360 calories left over I put that to my fat. Then my fat should be 110g.because 1g fat = 9calories. So the extra 40 g of fat = 360 calories. Wow this is complex. New ratio:…

Lol, yeah you can imagine how sick of chicken I am. What would be a better ratio?

Basically I worked out my macros for a low carb diet but I was left with spare calories so I added them to protein. Otherwise I would be on a massive calorie deficit so I figured in better off eating extra protein than fat and carbs. It's not a programme but something I worked out myself. I'm a noob when it comes to food…

that seems really low for your calories. If you're exercising I would think that 2000 to 2500 calories will still put you in a deficit. I'm learning about this as i go along too and Im targeting 2000 calories a day. FAT 70g CARBS 80g and PROTEIN 290g. Exercise 3 times a week = cardio and legs and some upper body.

Haha done!

Wales (UK) but currently in Lithuania (next to Russia). I'm basically the Eastern front.

Added! Don't worry, we'll get you back into shape!!!

I completely understand where you're coming from. I lived on take aways and since eating healthy I struggle to get 2100 calories. I hate cooking, I'm clueless about it. I'm glad you posted his, helps me a lot.

Hey my friend used this bulking powder. I'm sure there were like 500 calories per scoop! But he didn't train much and got really fat! But it's cheaper than buying steak and easy to consume with water or milk.

What she said.

I found it a lot easier when I had a gym partner.

Not sure how to add using the app but you're welcome to add me. 27 days in and fully committed to losing weight.

I'm 27 days in, add me too :-) Anyone can!

I know this thread is old but I've done a fair bit of research on this diet and the one thing you can do is increase your portions. The diet is more about the type of food you're eating which is why is so important not to add or swap any other food types. It's a chemical diet. D For example the grapefruit will break down…
