      Post HD's getting rid of the fat log

      So, it is currently week 4 of my dieting. So far I have lost 12lbs, maybe more as I did not check my weight Sunday. I weigh each weekend so I can see if what I am doing is working or not. Below I will describe my current physical condition and then below that describe what I am taking / eating each day. It is important to know that I am working away from home, and staying in a hotel. I did purchase myself a George Foreman Grill, and I do have a microwave and a fridge. So cooking food is limited. Picture was taken at start of diet.

      Me:
      I am 38 years old, 6' 268lbs (as of last weigh in), 54" shoulders and 36" waist. Not sure on the bf, and if anyone has a good suggestion on how I can test that I am all ears.

      Supplementation:
      One-A-Day Men's (taken twice a day)

      The following was just started this week and will last for 12 weeks
      1cc test p / .5 cc tren a EOD for 12 weeks
      Proviron 50mgs per day for 12 weeks
      Aromasin 12.5 3x a week
      3ius HGH ED


      Diet:
      Meal 1: 2 scoops protein (whey), 1 whole banana, 1 tablespoon peanut butter, 1 cup lactaid milk
      Meal 2: 1 packet instant oatmeal (low sugar)
      Meal 3: 6 to 8 ounces grilled chicken breast, 1 cup cooked rice (Uncle Bens Ready Rice in microwave bag, Jasmine) (I use pepper to flavor, no salt, and sometimes I add mustard for flavor)
      Meal 4: Nature's Valley Oats and Honey Granola Bar
      Meal 5: 1 scoop whey protein (post workout) (not drank when on non-training days)
      Meal 6: 6 to 8 ounces grilled chicken breast, steamed veggies (half of a frozen bag steamed in microwave, pepper for flavor)

      Please keep in mind I am trying to stay calorie deficient for weight loss. I would love to eat some eggs each day in my diet, but again I have no way to cook them. I am on a 12 hour a day schedule, and a 1.5 hour total commute to and from work each day. So I take off from the gym every 2 to 3 days to do meal prep. I am also doing 20 minutes of cardio 5 days a week.

      I know this is not an optimal plan, which is why I am posting it here in order to receive advice. I am also wanting to keep myself motivated, hence also posting this log. I look forward to your assistance.

      Always with integrity

      Did legs tonight. Had rice instead of veggies tonight, only change in diet.

      Workout:
      Elliptical 10 minute warm up
      Hip Abduction 4 sets / 12 reps
      Leg Press 6 sets / 8-12 reps
      Laying Leg Curl 4 sets / 12 reps
      Leg Extensions 4 sets / 12 reps
      Seated leg curls 4 sets / 10 reps
      Planks 3 x 15 secs

      Lower back giving me issues, so no squats. Pushed hard on the leg press. Will keep moving forward.

      HD's getting rid of the fat log

      When we start off at higher bf, our E and prolactin will swing chaotically... I’d order some caber, just to have on hand. Not take it unless there becomes a reason... I’d recommend bumping your Aromasin up to an even 12.5 ED for now... or if you plan on keeping the same dosage then at least run 20mg nolvadex ED as your safety net... until you get blood work to see where you are at... don’t forget to get bloodwork every 4/5weeks.... other than that, plug away brother... it’s dips and valleys mentally. I’d recommend staying off the scale and go by the mirror instead... the scale fucked me mentally... despite seeing progress in the mirror... your belt, pants, clothes, will do the talking...

      Looks like your plan is well thought out and I’d say run with it...

      If I may recommend bumping the cardio to 30min and work up to 45min... start at what you’re doing, but bump it up when you feel it’s time to progress... you’ll benefit greatly if you hit 45min per session... 30min is when the magic just starts to happen... I understand time is limited as it is.. but I’d commit to the 45 cardio and 30min weights... bump weight time when able.. it’ll be worth it.

      Focus slow and controlled on your movements over worrying about hitting big weight... I get just as sore slow and controlled lower weight as I do faster (with good form still of course) and heavy. You will end up resting less between sets and banging out full workouts in 30-40 min lol

      Keep realistic expectations. Understand this won’t be over night. Even these weeks during your cycle, are just one small step towards the end result... keep this log going for at least 1 year. 365 days. Everyday report here if even it’s just to say you’re logging just to get your day logged... commit to it. 100% ... every week selfies on your phone... every 3 months post update pics here... these are vital to combat your brain when it’s telling you to quit and it’s not working or worth it and there’s no difference.. pictures will shut that shit down...

      Adjust your macros as you see what works and what doesn’t. Watch your calories and understand where your starvation mode cuts in and out. DONOT cross that line. You’ll spend more time trying to reverse the effects of crossing that line than anything. Stay above the starvation mode. Or your body will fuck you. It’ll store bf no matter what you do...

      You have a big ass frame. You’re going to be a friggin beast. Watch out jungle! Crush your days. Stay laser focused. Shut off that brain. You got this.

      Following along for sure brother. Excited for your journey!

      Cowboymike -

      First, thank you for the words of encouragement. I want to be a beast, just worried about my age (getting serious too late) and my physical issues. I am a disabed Marine due to breaking my left tibia 7 times and having a compressed disc in my back. On top of that I have suffered 2 heartattacks due to anxiety (I am autistic - high functioning aspurgers). Yet, I still am hard headed enough to try this anyways.

      I am wanting to up my cardio to 30 minutes, When I started I was barely able to get 10 minutes, not I get 20 good minutes. I only do 10 minutes prior to leg training, but that is to warm up the muscle, not really doing cardio there.

      I will up my anti-e to everyday. If you know where I can get them and other peptides without a minimum amount, and be of sound quality, please PM me and let me know. I am using a well known sponsor here, but like most they do have a minimum.

      As far as my weight training itself I am a big buy but not lifting heavy. And I am definitely not an ego lifter. I am OCD about my form and full range of motion. I don't believe in sacrificing form for weight. My shoulders seem to be giving me some issues, but I honestly think that has to do with the position in which I sleep. I am trying to train myself to sleep on my back but that is difficult. I am a stomach sleeper.

      And as far as weighing myself, you are correct. And it's the same advise I give others, just not listening to it myself LOL. Last night I found that in the past week and a half I have only lost 1 pound, yet I went down a notch on my belt.

      Again, thank you for your encouragement.

      First off good job and keep up the fight and don't stop! Second I can tell you how to make that fat melt off in 2 months. The Keto diet. It's very simple count your carbs every single day and stay at 20 or less a day. After 5-7 days you'll feel crappy and that's normal "Keto Flu" get some sea salt and drink a glass of water everyday for 2-3 days with a spoonful of the sea salt. Once your body realizes your not taking carbs it burns your actual body fat for fuel. That's when the magic happens! Don't cheat and eat more carbs one day because one day over will start the process all over again instantly. I do this diet 3-4 times a year and it works like no other. I just finished it and lost 25lbs in a month. Now I'm smashing 1.5grams of protein per my body weight and building muscle. It's a tough diet but it works like a mother-fucker
      If you ain't getting laid, quit lifting mother-fucker

      I will look into the Keto Diet. I am concerned how it will effect my energy levels considering the hours I put in daily/weekly with work, travel, gym etc. If my energy levels can hold up then I am game for giving it a go.

      I appreciate the words of encouragement. Please excuse my language, but I would love to give a big "FUCK YOU" to all the ones back home (including family) and the those here at work that have told me I am wasting my time, that I am not capable of reaching my goals. Being a beast has always been a dream. I am ready to make that dream a reality. I have no illusions, there is no quick fix or easy way. Just hard work, dedication, and consistency.
