Has anyone tried this?
I'm on day 2 of this 21 day plan, do you think in three weeks of this kind of training you'll be able to see a noticeable difference? I know weight loss doesn't happen overnight but it is a very short training program!
Hope it works anyway, I'm eating very clean and training hard..
Just wondering if anyone else is doing this or has done this tell me how you're getting on or how you did?

It'd definitely more a complementing photo haha, check my progress pics man I'm about 20% body fat, got love handles and a spare tire round my belly!
It's not just some diet, I'm eating around 2000 clean calories a day and the workout routine is pretty intense, I'm cutting my fat down then for the summer, I'll bulk once I'm happy with my fat loss.
What plan are you on?

Whole and minimally processed foods are good for satiety and ancillary health benefits, but they offer no special properties for fat loss. Fat loss begins and ends with calories and macros.
I don't even know what the Bizzy diet is, but I know it's nonsense because it isn't going to be composed of foods that you personally enjoy and can eat for the rest of your life. Begin with those foods and adjust them to meet your calorie and macro goals.
1. Get rid of your misconceptions
2. Calculate your calories and macros
3. Eat about 20% less calories than you burn each day while still meeting minimum protein and fat. Get the remainder of cals from carbs.
4. Buy a kitchen scale and weigh everything that you eat.
5. Count calories using a site like MyFitnessPal. Here's how to count properly.
6. Lift heavy weights to preserve muscle mass, on a program like Starting Strength. Why not your own routine? Read this.
7. If nothing happens after 3 weeks, reexamine calculations, and eat less.

Thanks mate,
I don't know why it's called The Bizzy Diet, it's more of a workout plan..
It's featured by this website and consists of a 20 min interval cardio session, then a small weights circuit performed twice, then 10 mins cardio, followed by a repeat of the small weights circuit.
I think there's a diet included but I follow one I set myself
It varies but here's an example from today
Protein porridge
Tuna sandwich on brown bread
Pre-workout energy booster
Pre-workout whey protein shake
Post-workout protein shake
Cod loin with brown rice and roast veg
Casein shake
This is a diet I'm happy with, as I like to rotate the fish with chicken, tuna steak etc.. sometimes I go for weetabix in the morning, maybe a small brown tuna pasta salad at lunch, but i'm pretty happy with it.
I use MyFitnessPal and this all comes to; 1984kcal - 195g carbs - 40g fat - 209g protein
My TDEE is around 2961 so this shows a deficit of around 1000
In this diet/workout it's designed to burn fat apparently, it's definitely something different.. I'm still lifting weights just in a different way.
Cheers for the info, checking it out now.
I'm relatively new to this and I know it's a learning curve so I appreciate all the advice.

That's not going to do much if anything to preserve muscle while cutting, which should be your primary concern in terms of improving your body composition. I've found that the articles and programs on the main site are designed to attract attention from people new to all this, so they are tailored to what you want to hear, not what you need to hear. You will have better results if you can move beyond that sort of fluff.
40g of fat is inadequate for someone your size, you want to be closer to 70g.

Cutting is very simple it just takes a lot of patience and some will power to do it.
- Find your maintenance calories and subtract 20% (Aim to lose 1-2lbs/week)
- Protein 1g/lb of lean body mass
- Fat .4g/lb of body weight
- The rest of your calories can come from any combination of P/F/C
- Lift heavy using a proven program (Ice Cream Fit/Starting Strength Etc..)
- Get a good food scale and calorie counting app (myfitnesspal is great)
- Come back when your stuck at the last 5 lbs.
You don't need any supplements but the ones that work are the following
Creatine
Fish Oil
Protein Powder
Multi Vitamin

Lifting routines are not tailored to fat loss, because you don't lift to lose fat, you lift to preserve muscle/build muscle while losing fat. It's a subtle difference.

Stronglifts 5x5
Starting Strength
Ice Cream Fitness 5X5
