My results with the Cheat to Lose Diet
This is my log for my experience on the Cheat to Lose Diet. I will be updating periodically, but definitely every Sunday with details.

Today, I weighed in at 245, but at approximately 25% bodyfat with a 43.5" waist at the navel (yeah, big case of all my fat being around the middle). I hope to get down to 15% BF by Christmas and dial it all in by my friends' wedding on April 11. My goal weight, waist and bodyfat by then is 230, 34-35" waist at 8-10% bf. If I can do that, I'll be ecstatic.

Wish me luck.

You go almost keto for about 2 weeks, then you have cheat days scheduled in.

I will find what info I can give, because the info I have I was sworn to secrecy. Not sure what has changed in the book.

Ahhh...interesting. Nothing new about CKD or TKD. Lyle MacDonald wrote about that a while back, no? Too complicated for me! :

Sorry about not getting back sooner. I was out of pocket for the weekend. The diet basically consists of three phases. You have a Priming Phase, Core Phase and Maintenance Phase. Each phase has specific macro ratios for each week or day depending on the phase.

It is a lot like carb cycling, but it is specifically engineered to work with the body's feedback mechanisms. In other words, it doesn't slow your metabolism. The book is cheap as hell on amazon.com and it is more than worth it just for the 75 recipes in the back of the book.

Also, to answer someone's question earlier, I am 6'2".
