[deebee83]

Deebee83's PSMF Log...a test of willpower (GTFIH!) Last time I'll shamelessly advertise this here . Come say hi, I want to put the pressure on myself with an audience.

[Osbornezo]

Down 5lbs this week. Ate about 1200 cals yesterday to make up for a dinner that must have had way less calories than i though hence the rather large drop this week, unless my body still hasnt registered the amount of cream on the fruit salad yet haha

[webgodess]

Down 2 lbs this week to 229. Glad to see the 220's and being back down to my lowest point in over 20 yrs.

Will be a tough one to get to 210 for the end of the comp but I'm going to give it a go!

[DRtrainer]

so i've reached a point where my body is lean everywhere except for my love handles and lower abs, i realize this is where my patience plays in so i'll have to keep up.

2.4lbs down, happy day. Well done to everyone who lost and even those who didn't lose but haven't given up and are still trying.

Right there with ya. I just keep telling myself to trust the deficit and stay consistent.

Down 0.6 this week.

So what do you ultimately have to do at this point?



Finally down to under 210 don't remember the last time I was this low and now sure how much lower I want to go. Last summer at a football combine I benched 185 22 times when I weighed about 235. My goal is to bench my body weight 20 times so that way I look good and still have the strength. Once I hit 205 I'm going to go much slower at losing weight and focus on building my strength back up again.

wow dude i just checked your body space you made a great transformation! your before pic is exactly how i used to look and i know how hard it is to make such progress, keep up the good work mate.

[cnh57811]

So what do you ultimately have to do at this point?

Same thing ive been doing. Diet and lift. Only difference is that 'slip ups' set me back significantly farther now than they used to so my consistency is crucial at this point.

Thanks for the encouraging words. Im ready to finish this cut up so i can transition to a long term recomp/bulk. 2 yrs in the making. So done.

[BradKemp]

Gained 4 pounds this week.

Next week I will lose 5 pounds and then gain 6 pounds the week after and then lose 4 pounds and then gain 3 pounds. chit is gay.

DRtrainer's comment made me go take a look as well. Amazing work man.

Wonder which one of us will get to start his bulk first.

But look on the bright side! You've got your goals set!

[Tayler8]

1.3 lost

Cut is going so smooth atm.. yet to stall in 9 weeks.. was really hoping for 2 lb's a week till lower teens but ill take anything i guess

gl everyone this week.. Finish the month strong ^_^ !!


.. usually don't set weight goals for my self.. but i'm really looking for anything below 172 on the 24th

[BradKemp]

But look on the bright side! You've got your goals set!

lol those aren't my goals.. just what will probably happen. My weight fluctuates 10 pounds on any given day depending on how much carbs I eat so it makes weigh-ins hit or miss.

[live4gs]

223.0 This week, loss of 1lbs, heck 1lbs is 1lbs..

Well thats a bit annoying isn't it?

[BradKemp]

Yup. I usually lie to krete when I send him my weigh-ins.

[billthekill2012]

dropped 0.4 pounds.
190.8 to 190.4

Weight have been stalling for 2 weeks now.
Looking leaner in the mirror though. Also, my strength went way up while working out the past few session. This is after a slow decline in strength since my cut started in December.

^^^^ lol

Well, I'm at the bottom of the pile but not going anywhere. If we lose 4 more people this week I'll be last!

I changed my strategy this week - increased calories and added back in carbs. I have been off carbs pretty much for about 3 years now - with plenty of binges to prove that its not a good idea. I was up and down during the week and ended up the same thanks to a box of chocolates that have been calling me since Christmas. I'm going to stick with my macros for one more week before changing anything.

[gratzby]

Floated for a fortnight, back on track now. Tried going a harder deficit, for whatever reason that ended up with me sticking to the plan less. Now I know my limits! Back onto what I kept up throughout January, hoping to see 176 next weekend. Fingers crossed...

[Kerune]

Man it was only a few weeks ago I was hoping to leave the 150+ lbs.. now I'm at 146, *SOCLOSE* to 9-10% bf

[johnnyj411]

Up 2lbs...think I need to cut out drinking my diet cherry pepsi's(best tasting diet drank ever made).....
































Juss kiddin! Never quitin that!

Thanks Bill!

[krete77]

26 non submissions so far...i'm guessing we drop another 10 this week? bringing the total down to around 65 or so.. and with about 5 weeks left, i'm guessing we drop on average 4 a week, so thats another 20..so it looks like we will probably have about 45-50 remaining when it's all said and done.

that ain't to bad! 26% retention rate would be the highest rate ever since i started these over a year ago

[lucksterx]

Back from Vegas and not a single calorie was counted. **** you, pay me!

Most of what you gained was probably water weight. You'll be back in no time.
