Well despite going ape**** on a jar of peanut butter last night and consuming upwards of 2000 calories prior to bed last night, it didn't seem to affect my weight at all.

It's been affecting my mood more than anything. Just annoyed with myself for the lack of control that I still feel somedays despite my best efforts.

Pretty happy with where I'm at now despite last night and the rampage of goodies I had on Sunday during the Super Bowl.

I have six more days planned of PSMF and then I'm going to be taking 4-5 days off from dieting to eat at maintenance and let my mental state reset.

After that, I'll see where I'm at and then determine what plan of action will the best for me to take the rest of the month.

I might do another few weeks of PSMF and see if I can finally push the gauntlet under 190 pounds.

I'd like to drop another 3-4 pounds by next week, but I have a feeling that's a steep order at this point.

I'm pretty happen with the definition I'm starting to get throughout my body despite how little my lower ab and side fat seem to want to not budge.

Just gotta keep going no matter what.

They are so damn good. I double the recipe to increase my cheesecake/cookingtime ratio.

[ShortBrah3030]

Gonna eat around but below maintenance for the next couple of days and then go back to my deficit. Hopefully this will stop these ****ing cravings and I can continue on like the last three weeks.

Can we post Weigh in on Mondays? Its usually when i weigh myself and would like to use the same scale. If not its cool i usually summit on Sundays but it is from Friday weigh in. ( I use my school Gym)

Yea, i really can't believe how good it is.. Feel like i'm cheating "HARD" atm but tbh everything in it is what i eat on a daily basis anyways.. minus the cream cheese.

just way way way way .. way more filling

Dude......

Weigh yourself any day of the week and submit that number on sunday. I personally use my friday number when i submit on sunday. It doesnt matter.

Hey everybody, new to this thread, Started my cut January 2nd (After new years) after a 5.5 month bulk, I lost over 120lbs, bulked a good 25lbs in 5months, and now I'm cutting again, I started at 192lbs January 2nd, I'm at 180 now.. Eating around 1800-2000 cal a day, 100g carbs, 145g protein, rest in fats.

Chit, good job with the 120 lbs.
How long did that take you. (You have an error on your sig).


Can't wait until I get to do a "Bulk" cycle.

There's your answer bud.

[BodyOfLaw]

Feeling a lot better today. Hopped on the scale to see that 183.8 again. I got panicky last week when I shot up to 188-189 after starting creatine again. I'm happy with the results so far. I'm killing it at the gym and my measurements suggest I'm losing fat, even though I didn't drop below my previous low weight. I'm sticking with the 10g of creatine everyday so I figure I'm still holding some excess water but who gives a crap if I'm looking better and the scale is sliding the right direction.

[Schnitzl]

Ooft, dropped a good kg since yesterday after stalling. Total lbs lost to date is 31.3 :> Howz y´all doin? Did anyone start before the 1st of Jan like me?(was the 24th of dec. for me )

[matman1813]

You and me both.

Started the first of Dec at ~163, weighed in 154 beginning of the comp, weighing in at 148.5 or so now. Very close to 10-11% bf and I want to spend March going sub-10.

[RugbyColt]

Can tell a huge difference man. Not to be insulting, but in the first pic you just look chubby. By the last pic you can start seeing a hint of definition on your top two abs, and your waistline and chest both look significantly smaller.

I didn't bother to check how much you lost, but judging solely on pictures I would have said that was a successful three months of work, never mind ONE month. Keep in mind how quickly you really did that. Now go pat yourself on the back and keep it up.

EDIT - on spread...but hypothetical reps for progress...someone send him some 8--D through the CP for me

thanks bro!! yeah I was chubby haha im glad I've got rid of most of that chubby ness now , im looking at getting alot more definition over the next few months, my holiday is in july so I want to be 12-14% bf by then is that realistic?

also looking to start psmf, how many kcal per day do you take on that? its kind of what im doing atm but im on 1300-1700kcal depending on the day


oh yeah and ill rep back a) when I can figure out how to on my phone or b) when I get home from work on laptop haha

[Vikingly]

Mid week weigh in, scale is exactly the same. Damn.
Think ill be extremely good til Sunday to try and give it a little kickstart again.

good thing is, weeks not over :-) I like mid week weigh ins myself. Somehow helps me see where i'm at the first part of the week and make any adjustments to diet/workouts if needed. I'm down a little over a pound from last way in, getting rid of this water weight again i gained last week.

[RainMan215]

I started around June 11th. Lost 45 pounds so far and I'm not at 195... I can't wait to see 190 on the scale... Sucks the only pics I have of mysel are my face... I can't even imagine what my whole body looked like 45 pounds heavier lol.

June sometime (240 lb)



First week or so of Jan (200 lb)


Going in on the cardio

[krete77]

dang dude 1.5 hours worth on the cardio machine, thats sick.

Good, just dropped 6lbs after a stall too

Started at 200 lbs september 25th and now am 174. Feel considerably better! Aiming for 150ish

Oh damn, ill have to fix that, I started November 2011 and finished losing 115-120lbs in July so 8 months... When I look at it that way that's a lot of weight in short time, suprisingly I have like the very minimum of loose skin, if any... Just a crap load of stretch marks

[whitefire98]

Well, I made it through the Super Bowl party binge and am down a lb from last week.

On another note, I have had more energy that even just a few weeks ago and am loving it. I have not hit the gym as religiously, but have been able to skip the TV at night, and play with the kid a lot more. Good times.

[biggoron]

Maybe someone can explain this to me. It seems weeks when I'm not going to the gym, I lose weight. I was down weight on Monday. Goto the gym Tuesday night, Wed morning i've gained. Last night I goto the gym, this morning i'm even heavier!

I know my diet is well under maintenance, so it's not that I'm eating too much. I'm getting a good workout lifting. Muscles are sore, nice sweat going.

This isn't the first time it's happened. It seems like my weight loss stalls almost every week I lift alot at the gym.

Anyone know this feel? What can I do?

[cnh57811]

Good to hear!

[missladyj]

Good to hear!

Hell yea! Finally getting close to you again (assuming your weight is still 170). Was discouraging that we were losing the same for a while and then I rebounded and you kept going down lol.
