Day 8, and 49 more to go

Scale was at 216 and bodyfat shows 27% on that scale. The bodyfat level from the scale usually isnt trusted very much, but it is usually close to what the calipers show.

Was able to get in a full hour of cardio yesterday. Feeling much better lately. Probably a cross between a better planned nutrition plan, and TRT levels being up.

Lower carb days on the weekend. Almost time for breakfast. Fried eggs will be good today!

This could come in real handy for those that dont have a way to keep their meals cold during the day

I may end up getting one myself to use on some of the weekends that I am covering events. This way I have my foods with me

Damn age creeps up and make things go slower

Day 9, and 48 more to go

Scale remains the same with BF and weight. Calipers show 27% also

Had to slip of my meal plan last night due to a baby shower that we went to. My slip was a salad with greens, a few small tomato slices, and some balsamic. Not much of a slip.

Did some shoulders yesterday, and 30 of cardio. The increased cardio I have been doing has been rough on my right knee. I am still on track, but may have to cut back from an hour to 30 minutes a few days a week.

Some comments last night about the changes my body is showing. A lot of people are mentioning the weight I have dropped since my start a few months ago. Guess it is really showing. It is good to hear

Okay... time to get back to cooking my meals for the week

Day 10 and 47 to go

Hope I have the days right. Havent had my morning coffee, so ky thinking may be off

Scale shows the same weight and bf. Got dressed for work this morning, and realized that I cant keep wearing these pants. Thet are too loose. Time to purchase the 32's. Should have picked up some over the weekend.

No gym or cardio yesterday. Sunday was a lower carb day, and I was a little hungry before I went to sleep. Made it past that, and I am ready for my eggs and oats for breakfast this morning.

Great day so far. Had my three meals before goimg to the gym at lunch.

Did chest and triceps. Felt like a whimp at one point in the bench press. Did that after Incline bench, and had some issues. Followed that up with some Decline, and then some fly's and then pushdowns and dips

On the bike right now for my afternoon cardio

Day 11 and 46 remain

Scale shows 217 which is up a pound. High carb day yesterday is the cause. May have to stop the daily trips to the scale because it is messing with my head this morning. I jnow the body is changing, so that is what matters.

One problem I had this morning was my selection of meals. I made it to work, took the meals out of my bag, and realize I have Wednesday's meals. Not good, but I will make the best of it.

Back and Biceps today at lunch. Looking forward to it. Wish I could move the clock forward.

Made it through my three morning meals, lunch at the gym, PWO, a few hiurs back at work, and now I am 40 minutes into my hour of cardio. Sweating up a puddle today.

Bent over row
Pulldown
Low row on machine

Incline curls
Hammer
Preacher

Will finish up my cardio, and head home for.my last two meals of the day

Great thread and great results. I would be curious what exactly your goals are and as 3J said, what you stomach measurements have been.

On the modified carb cycle plan with 3J I was always able to drop stomach inches and still gain weight...and still have a ways to go.

Good luck.

Day 12 and 45 to go

Forgot that I was going to stay away from the scale. Showed 215 @ 27.5% so that is still the same.

Messed up my meals yesterday, so I will be eating my Tuesday meals which outs me on a medium carb day.

Main goal is to drop bodyfat to below 18%. That may seem high to a lot of people, but when you started out at 32%, being at 17% would be a huge change. Once I make that goal, I would reevaluate things

Stomach measurements are available, but they are a little off because I am so accustomed to holding in my stomach. Been doing if for so long, it is difficult to relax it for the measurements. When I relax, I feel like I may be pushing it out. Lol... Not sure if this makes sense

3J has the measurements and pics. I send them in once or twice a week. Should be doing measurements within a few days. May post them here. Not sure yet

[Clicked]

Another day...another hour of cardio. Would really like to show 25% bodyfat soon. Calipers or scale...either one would be fine.

Shoulders at lunch

Upright Row
DB Press
Front Raise
Side Raise
Rear Lateral

Now it is time to sweat.

Have the rest of the week off to make it a four day weekend

[Clicked]

Day 13, and 44 remain

215.6 and 25%

Bodyfat has gone down, and the weight has remained. That is good to see.

I swear the pics don't show much of a change, but it is there. My forearms are more vascular, but my torso has a bunch of fat that needs to disappear!

Day 14, and 43

Ouch... feels strange to not have a weight to enter, but it will be best if I stay away from the scale until my next weekly weigh in. Not sure if that will be Sunday, Monday or Thursday mornings. Each of them are mornings after a low carb day, so either would work.

Chest and Triceps yesterday. Followed that up with a brief 15 minutes on the bike. Not my normal hour, but at least I got on it for a few. My knee had some issues, so I figured it would be best to take a break.

Just finished my fried egg and shake, so I will relax a little and then it will be time to head over to the gym.

Second day of my four day weekend.

Day 15, and 42

Had a craving last night while watching TUF, so I solved the problem with a little of the Nonfat Greek Yogurt.

Haven't stepped on the scale in a few days, so I dont have a weight to report.

Did shoulders today:

Standing Press
DB Press
Side Raise
Front Raise
Bent Over Raise

Also got in 30 of cardio.

Time to get the head shaved for a Kids With Cancer benefit.

[Clicked]

Day 16, and 41

Not much to report. Today is a low carb day, so I may weigh in and take some pics tomorrow. It is either that or Thursday morning since the next low carb day is on Wednesday.

Shoulders were really hurting last night from the workout yesterday. Almost felt like they did when tore the rotators. Popped some ibuprofen and then some more this morning. May ice them some more today.

Day 17 and 40 to go

Since there were to low carb days, I decided to get in the scale this morning just to see where I was at. Showed 217.6, so I sort.of wish I didnt get in it. On a good side note to that, I swear the calipers show a loss. Will check again on Thursday morning.

Yesterday was a day off from the gym. The only time spent at the gym was taking pics of a new Circus DB.

Day 18 and 39

Chest and Tri's yesterday. Followed that up with an hour on the stationary bike.

Incline bench
Flat bench
Decline bench
Cable Fly
Bar pushdown
Rope overhead
Dips

Wanted to jump on the scale this morning, but I am really trying to only do it once a week when I need to get measurements and progress pics.

[Clicked]

Car issues along with my messed up knee.

Quick Back and Bicep session, and off to the car dealer to see if they can figure out the problems.

Not too sure about cardio tonight. Already hurt, so kay need to rest it. What a friggen mess!

Day 20 and 37... I think

Yesterday was a low carb day, so I did my weekly weigh in this morning.

Weight - 215
Bodyfat - 24%

Shoulders - 51.00
Chest - 44.25
Waist - 40.50
Hips - 38.25

Weight remains at 215, but my bodyfat is lower again. Dropping bodyfat like this seems strange to me, but it is working. I was expecting my weight to go down more, but I was obviously wrong. At 24%, I am getting very close to seeing 19%...and that will be great.

[gullymanz]

24 percent? nice man.. i have no idea what mine is at..ill send 3j a picture later on and see what he thinks..how do you do your bf%? scale or calipers?

Scale and calipers.

Scale has been showing 27.5% in the morning for a long time

Calipers are showing the drop weekly.

Ohhh....the scale will show 27.5% in the morning, and 25% at night when I have more water in my body.

Pick up some calipers this weekend. I paid around $15 for one
