Hello,
I'm going to be keeping a daily log of my diet, exercise, and ephedrine consumption until I reach my target goals. Would be great to get feedback as I progress and I hope someone else who is considering doing the same thing can learn from whatever mistakes I make.
Background: I've been lifting a little over a month now. Prior to that I was pretty sedentary, ate whatever I wanted, and smoked weed all the time. I quit smoking weed and needed another stress relief outlet which led me to lifting. Even in just this short amount of time of progress I can't imagine going back to the way things were. I was not being very strict about diet the past month, but now I'm counting calories and trying to hit my macros.
Current Stats:
Height: 5' 10"
Weight: 245 lb
BF%: ~25% (using calipers so a bit hard to get a decent reading)
Goal Stats:
Weight: ~180-200 lb
BF%: ~13-15%
Current Daily Caloric Goal: 2000 Calories
Current Macro Split: 35% Carbs/ 40% Protein/ 25% Fat
Ephedrine Use: (24mg Ephedrine HCL + 200 mg of Caffeine) 3x a day - Once when I wake up, once after lunch, and once before working out at night (considering switching workouts to morning though)
Note that as I'm switching to a better diet my water retention might change so my weight could fluctuate quite a bit this first week. I've been doing a strict diet since Sunday as in I've stayed under my 2000 Calories but sometimes I've been going too far under and it's working against me with muscle recovery. I'm open to suggestions on anything I've laid out so far. I've done a bit of research but you guys have more experience.
I'll be posting what I ate for the day and what exercises I did at the end of every day so first log will be later tonight.
