Likewise; whatever you're doing seems to be working for you so congrats

Have you taken any BF% tests?

[AWD_TURBO]

yeah, Before I started I was at 16.9% then after 3 weeks on CKD i was down to 15.9% and i wieghed in really heavy that time. I plan on doing it again this weekend to see what Im at. Im hoping for 14% or under. Last time when i was at 15.9 i was 212lbs. Im just under 200lbs in the mornings on empty stomach now. So hopefully i'll be under 14%. Thanks for the support.

Thought I should stop by! Sounds like you're doing really awesome, you should throw some pics up when you have a second bro.

Under 200lbs? Congrats! You must feel great..and I know the best is yet to come!

How are you sleeping lately?

[MOREBASS]

Keep up the great work chief ! Its inspirational !

[AWD_TURBO]

Well today was suppose to be my off day and im starting to turn into a gym rat. So instead of laying around stuffing my face I def went and did 1 hr LISS cardio burning 814 cals. I better be under 200lbs by friday for my bf reading. Feeling better everyday. Cardio was a breeze def could have gone more but didn't feel the need to. Thanks for all your support guys. If my cpu wasn't sooooo slow I'd post up pics but maybe i'll get around to it this weekend. I should have taken some before and afters but what can you do...

[beyondthesmile]

Sounds like you're doing great in here. Keep up the great work! You're motivating me to get my lazy butt back into the gym (I went on vacation for a week and have been kinda slacking ever since...shhh!). Looking forward to seeing progress pics.

[abi2020]

nice dude...checked ur log...u have been sticking to keto quite well...and looks like its working well for u as well

[AWD_TURBO]

Thanks for all the support! My sleep is finally starting to come back to me now. Idk how I was doing the 30 minute cardio sessions on 4 hrs of sleep.... Ok I think I've finally hit my plateau that most people run into (BOOOO) I can't seem to get to stay under 200lbs. Yesterday I took in roughly 1800 cals, didn't get my last meal in and I burned 814 cals doing LISS cardio for an hr at a steady HR of 121-136 at all times. I thought that I'd at least be down under 200 on my scale considering at the gym I sweated out 2 lbs of water haha. My scale at home is diff from the the one at the gym So I should have gotten my lazy ass up and went and did cardio this morning to get a real weight reading. Im gonna make a promise to myself to do it tomorrow. If I have time I'll get some pics up asap. Since everyone is waiting haha. I'll post back later with my Macros and todays workout regimine.

Workout today is gonna be back and chest. Should be a good day. Feel like I have plenty of energy. Still kicking myself for not going to do cardio this morning and getting a good weight reading. Oh well friday morning Im gonna get a BF reading I'll be sure to post it up for all to see. Big thanks to all of your for keeping me motivated.

[AWD_TURBO]

Actually got up this morning and did cardio at 6am before work! I was doing very good about getting and and getting it done.

Weight: 197.4 I haven't weighed myself in about a week and I was amazed that im down to 197 now

Last night I did chest and a killer ab routine. Had a good day at the gym. My macros for yesterday were off alot prob, I still ate keto just switched my foods around alot. The girlfriend wanted to go out to eat so I went and got a steak and had a some broccoli with it. (broccoli isn't all that bad if you mix it with the steak haha). Im hoping for another good day and Im gonna do a small carb up friday only prob. We'll see how I feel. Will post macros for today later.

PS. sorry about the pics, after the gym had to get the GF so didn't have time. will do soon tho, maybe tonight she'll be out of town.

[tomahawk1984]

Ok, they're not the greatest quality, but you get the idea. Thanks for all input

I might not be able to get a BF reading the lady who runs the gym was gone today and she dont get in till 11 tomorrow and i'll be at work. I would like to do it on an empty stomach so i might run there before i eat lunch tomorrow we'll see.

[AWD_TURBO]

Ok, So I got up at 6am again today and did 33 mins on the elliptical burning just over 400 cals again. Haven't eaten since 6:00 yesterday and I feel great. Im gonna go into the gym at 330 to get my BF test done today. I'll post those results later.

Im gonna start updating my log with pictures every 2 weeks to keep track of my body changes. I would like to get to 8% bf or less before winter. I'll prob do a BF test monthly as well.

[AWD_TURBO]

Alright well.... bad news, the guy that runs the gym took the BF tester with him to another facility. So Im not sure when im gonna be able to get another test done to compare it to my other one. Oh well I'll just have to go by the mirror test.

Pics look solid man - nice progress.

I'm facing my first carb-up this weekend and a bit skerred - how often are you carbing up? Every weekend?

[AWD_TURBO]

First week in, I had a horrible carb up. Had 5 pieces of pizza then it just went downhill from there. Had a huge bowl of ice cream with oreos, alot of cereal, nothing clean, drank a bunch of beer..... then I waited two weekends for my next one and I did even worse haha, had a footlong sub on wheat bread, two huge burritos, a chocolate pudding pastry thing, chips and dip, cookies, pb, pop... I only gained 3lbs after that one.... I haven't carbed up since. Debating on doing a small one tomorrow. just like a 16hr carb up. then right back to keto sunday. We'll see how it goes.

[Vitamin C]

keep up the good work!!!

[AWD_TURBO]

Just for shizz and giggles, what would you guys guess my bf at?

This is a dangerous game to play hehe - I'll take a stab at around 15%.

[AWD_TURBO]

yeah a stab right thru my heart hahaha no its cool man. Guessing is always fun.

Im hoping next time I get my BF tested im at sub 14%

[AWD_TURBO]

Alright back to the gym today, Carbed up this weekend. Feeling great so far. Today im gonna fast for the whole day and pick up my IF on monday breaking the fast at 12:00 or around there. I start college again monday so we'll see how that goes.

[tomahawk1984]

Pics look good mate, I have no idea about bodyfat so I'll sit on the fence on that

Good luck with the IF, I've read a bit about it since starting my keto but I'm still undecided about it.
