Day 2
179.8 lbs (-1.2)
I'm actually a little sore from yesterday's workout. Really wasn't expecting that. Feeling it a little in my back, shoulders, tris, and abs lol (no I didn't do ab ripper, just the chest/back workout).
Sugar free jello is AWESOME.
Day 1
181.0 lbs
Felt pretty good today. Kind of an empty feeling in my stomach again but nothing that even remotely compares to day 1 of the 1st round. The extra loading day may have helped, or it may just be the fact that I've done it before. Coffee may have helped too (just recently started...
As the title says, this is round 2 of the HCG Diet for me. Round 1 log here:
Invalid Link Removed
Starting weight - 190 lbs
Ending weight - 174 lbs
Current weight - 181 lbs
So after the 21 day diet then a month of eating like crap I'm down 9 lbs total. Could've done without the month of eating...
Well it's been almost a month since I ended the diet. Where the heck has the time gone? Due to being really stressed out about several different things I've been going through the past few weeks or so with no real motivation so my lifting hasn't been very consistent and my diet hasn't been on...
I've seen some people mention trying the HCG along with test or something to retain muscle. Seems like it would be a good idea. Not sure if you could completely drop the HCG though, of course I'm not sure exactly what it is that the HCG does.
How is it going for the wife?
Just realized it's been a little over a week since I finished the HCG so it's time for an update!
Weighed in this morning at 177.4 which is 3 pounds up from the end of the diet. Most of that came in the first few days as I started eating a lot of carbs, since then the only change I've seen is a...
Diet is over!
Weighed in at 174.4 lbs this morning. Here's what I lost in 21 days:
Weight: 15.8 lbs
Neck: 1"
Chest: 3"
Waist: 3"
Bicep: 1/4"
This was all over the course of 3 weeks, lifting 2x per week for 45-50 mins (except the last week which had only 1 partial workout) and no cardio. Just...
Looks like good clean food for the most part.
It's not just about protein though. Add up the total calories and if it's less than your required maintenance calories you should be good to go.
Thanks bro, I'm really glad somebody is interested in this.
Honestly if I wasn't so close to the end I would have just sucked it up and powered through, but like I said I'm more than happy with the results through 21 days and to me an extra 2-3 days just isn't worth messing with right now. Plus...
Day 21
173.8 lbs (-1.0, -16.4 total)
Ok, couple of issues. I started getting a sick/lightheaded feeling a couple times yesterday and again this morning. Also had one hell of a time getting out of bed this morning just because I felt like absolute crap (thankfully I'm off work today so I slept...
Vanilla creme protein power + cranberry juice + frozen mixed berries and a little bit of ice in the magic bullet makes a delicious smoothie. Sometimes I have a banana or an apple with it if I feel like it.
You have to take in enough total calories if you want to gain weight. You can definitely do it by eating low carb, you just have to eat lots of fat to make up the calories. Do a search for "Paleo Diet" and you should find a ton of info.
Well tonight's workout was complete crap. I mentioned not feeling very strong during my last workout but I did still manage to get through it. Tonight I felt downright weak. I struggled so much with the first 3 sets that I didn't even attempt a 4th set on anything.
Thankfully I only have a few...
Day 17
176.2 lbs (-2.4, -14.0 total)
Wow huge drop this morning. I haven't dropped that much in a day since the beginning of this thing. I'm almost into my goal weight range and I still have almost a week to go!
Thanks man, I'm pretty happy with the results so far. I'm glad I'm going for a short cycle though because I'm starting to feel kind of burned out. Just got back from the gym and ugh...those weights felt WAY too heavy tonight.
On a positive note - I've noticed my t-shirts that were starting to...
Day 15 (yesterday)
179.0 lbs (-0.2, -11.2 total)
Nothing new to report here
Day 16
178.6 lbs (-0.4, -11.6 total)
Just weighed in this morning. Not much change the last couple days but that seems to be the pattern lately. Hopefully I'll see another big drop in a day or 2.
