Sat, Aug 27th

Scale weight: 121 lbs

7am: morning cardio of running stairs at Philly Museum of Art

Did 3 sets of 3 double step runs up and down large flight of 6 blocks of stairs with 2 min rest in between set. Started to drizzle so moved to smaller flight of 3 blocks of stairs closer to my car. Did 1 set of 6 double steps run up and down, took 2 min break and then did second set of 12 single/double steps run up and down

8:30am:
1/2 cup oats
1 cup liquid eggwhites
1/4 cup soymilk
1/3 cup blueberries

I had to declare the rest of today a cheat day since I went to NYC for a pre-arranged brunch event:

12:30pm:
5 course indian meal consisting of naan bread, tandoor chicken, lamb chops, vegetable curries and bread pudding dessert

3:30pm:
At asian deli in chinatown,
1 glass almond bubble tea
1 black bean pao
1 red bean lotus moon cake

My stomach is so full right now, but am heading out with friends tonight, so will permit myself 2 alcohol beverages to compliment my cheat meals and be done.

Happy Saturday everyone!

Edited to add, last night's plan didn't work out so well. I ended up having three delicious martinis and then needing food to be able to kick off the buzz. Indulged in mozarella sticks and fries, which tasted like heaven, so even if yesterday causes some damage I declare it well worth it.

[Roonytunes]

I went for my routine bodyfat test today. I came in at 14.7% . I'm happy enough with it since I was able to enjoy a few cheat meals in the last month and still drop 1.2% on a schedule that I feel is now comfortable as a regular lifestyle. I've now dropped 8.55% bodyfat in total in 4 months since I started at 23.25%.

These are my current measurements in comparison to 7/29:
chest - 30 3/4 inches (dropped 0.75 inches)
bicep - 10 3/4 inches (dropped 0.25 inches)
waist - 23 1/4 inches (dropped 0.75 inches)
abs - 31 inches (dropped 0.5 inches)
hips - 38 1/4 inches (dropped 0.5 inches)
thigh - 20 inches (gained 1 inch)

I gained 1.2lbs lean mass since my scale weight has stayed the same.

It is obvious now even at a lower body fat that I'm battling some genetic issues as can be seen with my waist to hip ratio. I'm told that I just need to keep dropping bodyfat so that my body will eventually give up the sticky fat deposits in my thigh/hip area. Not sure how low I have to go just yet - we initially thought 13% would do the trick, but we're not sure now.

Changes to diet:
Try to keep calorie range between 1300-1500 cals
Limit the fat intake to 40g
Limit carb intake to 100g or so
Eat more green veggies

Changes to workouts:
Keep cardio to 5-7 x a week
Take my 3 split body workouts (2 upper, 1 lower) and change one of those upper body splits to include some lower body work within it, especially the adducter machines

I am going to adhere to this program as best as I can. I'm heading on mini vacation again from Thurs-Mon for the labor day weekend, so I'll be giving myself some time off then. Plan to get right back into it though when I get back for three weeks and then my parents visit from India in Oct for 15 days - I only get to see them once a year at best, so I'm just going to eat my mom's cooking since in my culture, it is very offensive not to do so. My parents are old now, so to me it's just not worth it to upset and argue with them over a couple of pounds and inches. I'll just work extra hard when they leave.

However, aside from some of these hurdles that life tends to throw, I hope to be able to continue through this program till the end of the year at this point.

[playmatesky]

I am very bloated! Not sure if it is the carb rotation is making me hold water...



Im telling u girl from experience and from hearing it from from Nutritionist as well...if you do not rotate your foods u will develope an intolerance to them. How is your water intake and is it possible u may be getting ready to start? How r u feeling with your carb rotation? Take care sweetie!

 

[playmatesky]

Oh yeah...I thought about something else sweetie...it is not uncommon to be bloated after a high carb day. Your weight will also fluctuate because when you deplete and replete your glycogen stores water is also fluctuating. You are probably feeling totally lean on no carb and low carb days and then bloated the day of or day after a high carb day, Right? If so...this is why and this is normal. Does this make any sense?

Thanks, Jens, for letting me know. I'll have to look for the Quaker kind now. I am eating the salted ones from Trader Joe's now.

Also, sorry that I can't make your show this weekend. I'm heading to New York instead so I'm going in the opposite direction. But I'm SURE you'll do great!!

Your body's set points are valuable information so make a note of them.

Also, they let you know that it's a good time to change things up or your body needs a rest.

I'm aware of that - obviously, I won't follow it to the T. Just make some adjustments using hers as a guide.

Hey SG...no kidding about not being able to break through that magic number! I'm not sure what to do just yet, but I may be eliminating wheat and soy soon in addition to dairy which I already have.

Cous cous is whole wheat pasta technically, but looks like brown rice. I buy it pre-made at Trader Joes, but you can get packages of it raw usually in the ethnic food section of a regular grocery store.

I sure wish I knew you were going to be in NY. I would've taken a break from packing my boxes. I would've loved to meet you. Where did you go? Too bad you blacked out. I'm noticing that since I've started working out and eating like I have common sense, my freaking tolerance is non existant. Shit, I almost blacked out myself on Saturday, all I had was 2 rum and juice(snatched up my son's). Both of us went to bed at 9pm on a Saturday!!!! Pathetic. Do let me know next time you in NYC or near Jersey City, I'll come hang.

Necia, I'll definitely let you know next time I'm in NYC. It would be cool to meet up and hang. I ended up in the midtown area this time - dinner at Diwan and then we went out to Tonic. Started off as a fun night, but I should have kept to my limits better...as they say, live and learn!

Good luck with the move, girl. Can't wait to see your logs again!

Hey RT! Wanted to stop in and say 'ello
How is the sticky fat going? Still using YES? More progress?

Sorry if I'm out of the loop. Just checkin' in...

Hi girl..thanks for checking in! I loved your photos from your fab birthday weekend.

The sticky fat is still there at 14-ish % body fat although it has gone down quite a bit. I have used up 4 bottles of YES and am taking a break at the moment. I'm actually going off program for 2 weeks from Oct 3rd to Oct 16th since my parents are visiting and I don't see them much or get to eat my mom's cooking. I'll get back after that full-force with supplements etc.

I'll rethink some strategies as well in mid-October. For now, I'm already thinking of eliminating wheat and soy in addition to dairy since I hear these cater to estrogenic fat. I may also just go with the standard 40/30/30 plan since it seems like most folks have had success with this.

 

[playmatesky]

Hey Rooney....14 % is great! Just keep it up and you will be where you want to be. Most people would kill to be 14 %.
You are right about the soy and dairy. I didnt know wheat did the same thing. But I have heard it is not good for your cortisol levels. And a lot of people are allergic to those things. Inclding myself with eggs and soy. Shit..I had no clue. Was eating it all the time. And when you look at labels...soy is in EVERYTHING! URGH!
Glad to hear your doing well. Have fun on your family trip!!

Hi Sky! I'm not complaining about my results. I know it takes time to get to where you want. Sassy has posted previously about eliminating wheat in relation to estrogenic fat, so I'm going to take her advice. I may switch to spelt bread possibly. Glad to see you logging too. It will definitely keep you honest to yourself!

Hi Sky! I'm not complaining about my results. I know it takes time to get to where you want. Sassy has posted previously about eliminating wheat in relation to estrogenic fat, so I'm going to take her advice. I may switch to spelt bread possibly. Glad to see you logging too. It will definitely keep you honest to yourself!

Spelt is pretty good stuff. Great toasted with P butter.
For sure about the lof thing. It will keep me on track.

I have decided to close out my journal till mid October. As posted before, I'm spending the next two weeks with my parents who are visiting from India. We're traveling, mom will be cooking etc. so while I will try to be in check, I will not be on program.

Final stats after 5 months:
Today's weight is 120lbs, so I lost 6+ pds.
Better yet, I lost 9% body fat starting from 23+% to now 14+%

I'll still try to check in on EF when I can, but will just not be logging.

[Roonytunes]

I'm baaack as promised. I just dropped my parents off at the airport this morning. It was nice to spend time with them. I definitely took a detour from my clean eating, especially with the buffets in Vegas and our general habit of bonding over food as a family. But to me, it was worth it and I have no regrets, since I only see my parents once a year.

I had some time to reevaluate my goals in the two weeks I was off program, and have decided I am going to pursue maintenance as a goal. I am looking at this as a lifestyle change and don't have any aspirations to compete. That said, in my early thirties, I'd be happy to maintain in the 13-15% bf range. I just happen to be very estrogenic where I hold a lot of sticky fat deposits so that is how low I have to go to look lean.

My plan:
- Continue to stick to a clean diet with calories under 1500 and carbs under 100g.
- eliminate dairy, soy and wheat since I already am so estrogenic
- Continue to train 3x a week with my trainer
- At least get a minimum of three to four am cardio sessions in
- The only real difference is instead of one major cheat meal on Sat nights, I may have smaller off-program meals as my schedule calls for. This means that I will only be able to do so when I am out with friends in social situations as opposed to sitting at home and eating junk. If this doesn't work as well as I hope, then I may have to modify my plan, but we'll see for now.
- I plan to take levorex, sesamax, alcar, green tea extract and t-rex daily as supplements. I will start using YES again too once I get some of this vacation bloat and fat off in the next week or two.

I'm glad to be logging again. I definitely missed everyone here and have a lot of reading to do.

I too am surprised that I didn't gain a ton more weight. My body does appear to have have a set range in terms of weight that it likes to be as we discussed earlier in my log. Unfortunately, body fat is another story....it loves to hold on to whatever it possible can

Hi RT, I need to ask you something:

You eat a lot of the same things everyday - does it make sticking to the plan easier or is it just because you like it? Don't you go mad? LOL! Sounds odd, I know, but I'm trying to find ways to stay on the diet much easier - just wondered what works for you.

Hi Mermaid Yeah, I'm a bore when it comes to eating from Mon to Fri. There's a combination of reasons why I eat the same few meals:

1) having less variety stops me from straying. in fact, I don't even think of options because my mind and stomach have got adjusted to know that these are the meal options available to me as long as I'm not eating out

2) out of the clean food options available to me, these are the ones that I can handle eating daily because i like them best. i also find them filling and they don't cause me to bloat up.

3) i have the guy in my work cafeteria trained to make me turkey burger patties, chicken breasts and veggies fresh on the grill when he sees me without oil or added additives. he is responsible for meal 2, 3 and 4. he jokes he is my personal chef and i actually miss him on weekends when i'm at home and have to fend for myself.

4) i don't cook at home so that is severely limiting and i make sure there is nothing in my kitchen other than liquid egg whites, canned tuna, whey powder, oats, brown rice cakes, ANPB, almonds and flax oil. And no, I'm not kidding!

Anyway, aside from my vacations and social life getting in the way, this is what has been working for me on a day-to-day basis. Hope that helps yoe some and you don't think I'm a weirdo!!

 

[buffalogal]

I think it's amazing you can eat the same thing day in, day out. I wish I could but after four days of grilled chicken I'm ready to gag!

I know what you mean about keeping only a few certain foods in the house though. My cupboards are extremely bare compared to what they used to be. My only luxuries now are pudding and natty PB - both of which I hated just a few months ago. Amazing how much tastes change after a while.
