Looking good! Congrats on the loss so far. IF works well for me when dieting down. I tend to use it a lot.

Well if I hit 180 I’m gonna treat myself not sure how yet but … big changes this year and new beginnings. I’m almost 40. Soon to be divorced and maybe I just might live my best life. Farmers only? Not sure Brazilian Booty lift possibly lol I’m joking.

Asking for advice… if u don’t mind. (Fasting)
So here’s the question… what and where does the drinking preworkout fit in at. So I do that at 0330 then eat till noon then fast the remaining time. Protein shakes ? Preworkout ?

I didn’t count my pre against my fast. But, that would depend on what is in your pre. Protein shakes and anything with calories would work against your fast. Plain, unflavored BCAAs don’t, assuming the science hasn’t changed recently. I would wake up, drink black coffee at 0330, pre workout at 0400, then my feeding time was 12-8 PM. 5g BCAAs every hour from after my workout to the end of my fast. I was the leanest I ever was.

So this is how it’s been rolling. First and foremost I wish I could a preworkout with more of a bang. So I wake up at 0330 drink preworkout … gym till 6 and head to work I eat one salad protein shake and some protein bars. I cut the Pepsi out and it’s only been since Monday and so far so good I’m hungry some in the evenings but it’s getting better. I’d really like to see 180. So I think I’m driven more than ever this year

Curious about how many calories you are getting in a day? I have a feeling it may not be enough. Also when do you start and stop eating? You don't mention the time your feeding window starts or stops.

And your probably right with calorie intake it feels impossible to eat in that window but that’s what I have. Work is ALWAYS crazy. I work I think about everyday it seems 0700 to 1530 or 1930 depending when anyone wants to come to work. I thought about adding a protein shake at bedtime?

I was raised in Elkview WVa until I was 14.
That’s awesome. About 2 hours south of me. I was down in Charleston for my girls bday we spent the night etc… place was a tad shady for my liking. But parents have a 500acre farm in Calhoun county don’t know if your familiar with that area

Well here’s the deal. I haven’t spoken this out loud but might as well… when I hit 180 I’m looking to purchase me some silicone lol. So if I get off this plateau…

keep working hard--and keep to lower cals and i guarantee you will break plateau...getting down to 180 will be a accomplishment, look at the silicone as a carrot for motivation....but i am willing to bet that when you get to 180 you will want more--the vast majority of us here on this forum are never satisfied we always want more, lol.
