I'll be running Scivation's "Diet Solution" for a while. However long it takes. They claim that if you stick to the diet, you can simultaneously lose fat and gain lean mass. So I am going to give it a shot. I'm sitting at 195 lbs and ~20% bodyfat. I am a lacto-ovo vegetarian. Or you could call me a Pescatarian, because I SOMETIMES eat fish. I probably will more so on this diet. The diet can be found here: /fun/the-diet-solution.htm (bb.com at the beginning, can't post it with such a low post count.)
This thread will be updated daily/weekly as I track weight weekly and bodyfat monthly. Food and exericse daily. If I remember to take a starting picture in the morning I will. But if not, oh well. It can be a surprise later. As for my workout routine, I will be following the beginner routine listed here on the forums by "all pro" until I plateau.
I started Monday. Ran 1 mile for cardio.
Today, I lifted. I will start to copy my workout logs into here with reps/sets/etc. But now I must go to bed!

Good luck, just remmeber muscle gain and fat loss only really come as a noob or returning from a LONG break. You need to remember they also sell supplements etc too.
Would you post up the exact diet etc (I have the PDF somewhere) as it will make your log more interestingYes... I've started a log - http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=159357321

I posted a link to it, it's here on bb.com. But at the end of the day I'll post up what I ate today specifically.
As for the products, I am using Xtend intra and sometimes post workout. Instead of their MRP product, I am eating a scoop of whey with a scoop of Phytofood Greens+ for meals that I'm at work.
As for the fat loss/lean mass gains, I am generally a noob. I lifted on and off for a few years. I have been lifting steadily for 3-4 months with decent gains on SS. But I wanted to clean up my diet a lot more and lose some fat along with gaining muscle instead of just gaining strength and fat on SS. (or so it seems) :P

Diet:
8am - whey, 3 slices toast, 2.5 tbsp peanut butter, apple.
11am - Yves Meatless Chicken Strips, 2 cups veggies, 1 tbsp peanut butter, 1/2 tbsp oil.
2pm - MRP
5pm - 4 hardboiled eggs, nuts
8pm - 5oz can of tuna, veggies, brotein shake.
Exercise:
Ran 1 mile. Working up to longer runs.
Notes:
The diet pisses off my family in the sense that I can only eat carbs for breakfast and post workout, so it's difficult to go out for meals and stuff, but I'm not going to stop. Especially not so early. Weights tomorrow, looking forward to drinking some watermelon Xtend! :P

Good day today. Went to a friend's art show/concert and had fun. Got my mom a cool painting for mothers day. At the beginning of this diet I started a deload on my lifts, so this next week my lifts will hopefully all be going up. Cardio is getting easier each day as well. So far I'm liking it!

Weigh in.. -1.5 lb. After taking a **** this morning. Maybe the simultaneous fatloss and gain is occurring, but it's too soon to say for sure! Going to do some cardio then head to work in a bit.

I feel very tired every day at work on this diet, but I feel SLIGHTLY leaner and I am surprisingly motivated to stick to the diet and do cardio 5-6 times a week. I don't know about a lifestyle diet, but it definitely is nice so far. Thinking about trying out Leangains, but I don't want to stop doing this.The first step was birth, now forever cursed to analyze your self worth.

I just plugged my foods in to a calorie counter and it came out to 2400. That is probably WAY too high........I am following the basic rules of the diet by choosing my protein source and my fat source at each meal. Getting approximately 42g of protein and 20g of fat with each meal 5 times total. My p/c/f today was 210, 145, 120. I will probably have to stop using milk in my protein shakes.

Double post....sorry.
My RMR is 3,500 calories according to the calculator here on bb.com, but I'm sure that is incorrect. Every other calculator I've used comes out between 2,200-2,700 MAX. I'll keep eating like this and see how my weight falls next weigh-in. Might drop the creatine due to unwanted water weight gain, but we'll see..The first step was birth, now forever cursed to analyze your self worth.

Being a vegetarian really limits my protein choices to basically: whey, eggs, cottage cheese, yogurt, tofu, soy "meats", etc. I would love to add a variety of fruits and vegetables, but I can't afford anything else right now, lol! I'm stuck eating broccoli, cauliflower, celery, apples, bananas, basic stuff like that. (I get fruit from work and that's all they give me). I am still motivated with the boring foods, but I will surely add some different fruits and veggies as summer comes along. WATERMELON AND GRAPES!

Scivation Diet Solution is only carbs post workout. I lift fasted first thing in the morning. The only other carbs I can eat are veggies and fruit switching off each meal.
Do you think I should ditch the scivation diet??The first step was birth, now forever cursed to analyze your self worth.

Diet:
2,166 cal. 213g carbs. 98g fat. 135g protein. Hit my macros on the spot today!
Exercise:
Squat 205 x 5, 5, 5
Bench 115 x 5, 5, 5
BW Dips x 4, 4, 4
Notes:
I like this routine muuuuuch better. Also, as discussed above a few posts, I'm taking Cumulonimbus' advice and ditching the scivation diet and going for a more general approach. I'm eating at a deficit and am expecting 1.5-2lbs weightloss each week from here on out. I am also thinking about the Leangains approach, because I have a gay work schedule and don't want to keep bringing food in. (The food I can eat there is all garbage) and because I have read/seen some great reports of fat loss accompanied by muscle gain.Last edited by Matturbator; 05-05-2011 at 07:21 PM.
