    And 60 mins is the max you should be doing for fasted cardio, spend the extra 10 mins organising your food
    Keep it up mate doing great!
    OK taking complete day off today. Great week 5x Weight training and 6x fasted cardio. Diet 95% as planned.
    Thanks for checking in on me.

    ...and THANK YOU for checking in on me Bikeral. Looks like you are doing well. And REST is just as important. I think I will follow suit.

    So as they say idle hands something about the devil... I've spent all day or at least it seems that way thinking about food. Probably due in part to under eating yesterday, Here is my cals and macros for yesterday cal 1861 P193/C139/F55. Fat was a bit high because I ate a skirt steak. I was even thinking about Krispy Kreme donuts. I think 405 put that thought in my head. I was able to not go totally off but I did have a couple of protein bars which raised my cals a bit.
    Total Cals macros for today Day 11 Sunday is Cals 2450/P282/C201/F42 not too bad I hope.

    Never thought I'd say I am glad to go back to work but to me this is a lot easier during the week. No distractions just do what is planned and at end of day I am exhausted.

    Last couple of days I have not been very regular... I'll have to check my fiber intake. Should I supplement?

    Hey gearbox thanks for the reply. Yea I am only eating 1/2 cup oatmeal a day in my PWO shake. I will see if I can substitute some more oatmeal somewhere else.

    When you post your pics you should put them side by side. For instance week 2 right next to week1. This way you can really see the difference...trying to go from one page to another can play tricks on the eyes. Does that make since?

    Awww...you guys made me think about donuts!!! Aaahhh! lol

    Anyways, If you need to add more oats into your diet, a tasty way to eat them is with sugar free jam. It's pretty good. Keep up the good work!

    Yep that's the way to go. I saved these first pics and when i make some progress I'll post the new pics next to these. How often do you post pics? Is it by time or weight loss/fat loss numbers?

    Man I used to work in the world trade center and down on the first floor there was a Krispy Kreme store. Those donuts melt in your mouth when you get them hot fresh made. Funny how when I am not cutting I don't think about donuts.
    Thanks for the tip. I use the sugar free jam if my chicken is really dry or to put in cottage cheese. I'll have to try it with oatmeal.

    405 Ball busting is always welcome here. Yep I still have a ways to go but when I get there I'll get the clippers out. Also look into mt2.

    I post every 2 weeks. You should be able to see improvements even if small ones over a 2 week period. It also keeps you more accountable as you know you can't cheat or we're gonna know. And then, of course, we would have to kick your ass.lol

    Today I cut out my last guilty pleasure. I have been putting half and half in my morning coffee. That is 5g of fat I can do without. Going black from now on.
