First & foremost, thanks to BPS for giving me this opportunity to log their new product. After reading the write-up, I knew this was something I had to try.
I just finished logging the Progestin for Taurus Nutrition, & that stuff was no joke! Had a great run, but towards the end, I got lazy & the flab came back. We have a beach trip planned for the end of July, so this is the perfect opportunity to shed some bf!! According to friends & family, I'm too skinny... They'll never understand.. :lol:
Here's a couple of before pics: This one was yesterday afternoon, upon waking. (worked nights last night)
This one was on June 8th during my Progestin run:
As all of you can see, I'm far from being too skinny!! WTF!!??
Anyway, just like the rest of the loggers, my main goal is fat loss! :head: To help me achieve that goal, I'm going keto, or a modified keto. I'll do refeed's on Sat & Sun, but the foods will be healthy. I'm cutting out all weekday alcohol consumption (having days off during the week, being a shift worker, this gets tough, but the benefits make it worth it)!!
Training will be as crazy as my work schedule. I'll be doing a lot of circuit training and a lot more of HIIT. Obviously, I'll be hitting abs at least 3x a week. I like to give them time to rest like the other muscles.
First impression: Holy black pepper smell, Batman!! :lol: My wife said she could smell it right away when I opened up the bottle. I took my first dose of 2 pills @ 4pm & was kickin' by about 4:25pm!! Very clean, non jittery, type of energy. On the drive into work, I was one w/ the road.. VERY focused on the task at hand. I stayed energized, big time all the way up to 11:30, when I took my 2nd dose of 1 pill.
Energy - Excellent! I went to work last night on about 3 hours of sleep during the day yesterday. My job permits me to sleep from about 11-3am.. Well, I never once got tired! It's now 8am & I'm just now getting drowsy. Gonna try & get up early enough this afternoon to at least hit cardio.
Appetite - Gone! As I already stated, I'm on keto. Yesterday was day one of that. I may have taken in a max of 8 carbs in the last 24 hours. I ate plenty of tuna & nuts last night. I need to get more protein powder & other sources of healthy fats.
Mood - Great! Even w/ minimal sleep & no comfort foods, I stayed in a very good mood!!
So far, looks like BPS put a great combo into a capsule! I'm looking forward to seeing how this melts the fat away w/ this diet & workout plan I have in front of me.
