Fat loss check-in
I’ve been at just under 90kg (~197 lbs) for a few days now. Even though my SIX PACK ABS aren’t popping through yet (ha!) I don’t *feel* any lighter, but I guess I’ve been doing something right, because even though … Continue reading
Figured out my plateau
So the last couple of weeks I’ve basically stalled on my fat loss plateau. I’d hit 199 lbs once or twice but wasn’t able to stay there for more than a couple of days. The last week or so I’ve … Continue reading

Definitely on a plateau
I’m nearing the end of my third week on low-carb. Most days I’m under 30-40g of carbs, except for cheat days when I might be about 150-200g. I’ve lost a few pounds, gone from about 213 to a steady 208, … Continue reading
Low-carb update
OK, a little update. If you recall, I did the Xtreme Fat Loss Diet, which I started on the 5th of May. I ended it at the end of May, with a couple of days of slippage here and there. … Continue reading
Continuing…
I’m kind of on my second or third day of it, and it’s going alright. Sunday was Cheat Day, which coincided nicely with a christening I attended and some nice dessert. At about 7 or 8 PM I stopped eating … Continue reading
