I but she didnt want to know, plus ive been told if you get it done on the NHS it goes on your record and can affect life insurance etc.....

the consultation is £150.......so not cheap,but hopefully worth it.

Cool mate, hope you get it sorted

Well weighed myself today and im the same weight again!...12.6....ive been on this 4 weeks with no change....i know people say don't worry about the weight aslong as the mirror looks good, but my problem is i want to lose weight lol.....im going to finish this week then move onto a ckd diet for the next 2 weeks, i just feel im not getting the most from this plan as im not getting my cardio in(im to shaterd to do any)....im changing now so i can gauge if its worth using the ckd for 6 weeks. I think 4 weeks is enough to gauge if something is working or not. Im getting my blood tested soon,my weight/fatloss is stupidly slow,thinking i might have something up,so either way itl put my mind to rest having bloods done. I will see how the next 2 weeks go,if im loseing weight ill carry on untill end of June,if not i will go straight into my performance training and diet plan to get myself resady for mms and my endurance run in september.....im a bit frustrated at the min to be honest. Cheers

You had enough bud? I think you should stick it out, but that's just me, it is very possible your gaining LBM.
But if you have hit a wall (like me then I guess you will have to do what you have to do lol

no mate ive not hit a wall,if id been loseing the lbs each week id easy do another 2 weeks,i want to see the lbs coming down,im happy to keep lbm but don't want to gain any. I want to be at 165lbs by end of June. Plus another thing bugging me is the lack of cardio,i like my kiit but haven't got any energy on this plan,,,man them depletion workouts on low cals drains me so much.

[energizer bunny]

Day 113 (Day 28 of UD 2.0)

last day of ud 2.0......im taking a few days off from diet and gym....i think im going to start training for my run in september (so ill have 18 weeks) and get myself fit for mma to start again in 8 weeks (once college is over for the summer).........im going to set calories at 2000 per day, 1.25 grams of protein per lb of lbm, 0.4 grams of fat per lb of lbm and the rest of calories from carbs....from there i will cut carbs untill im loseing 1lb of fat/weight per week.

rough plan of training is 6 days a week mon-sat training alternateing between strength (wendlers 5,3,1 mon,wed,fri) and condition/fitness (runing and rowing tue,thur and sat) (using heart rate monitor to gauge progression) sunday i will rest all day.

I read the last few entries and I see you have either hit a plateau or body is recomp. Stick with it.

I can't pretend to understand your macros cuz I never carb cycled. I was was surprised that your carb is higher the protein macro but maybe I am reading it wrong.

cheers GGR.........maybe i have hit a plateau or i was recomping, either way 4 weeks at the same weight didnt feel good with all the work i was putting in, its probably a blessing in disguise to be fair as its pushed me to start training for my run, last year i left it late (only trained for 7 weeks for it) and ooohh was it tough lol.

cheers

[energizer bunny]

with refernce to the protein being lower than carbs...thats just how the diet was set out, 3.5 days very low carbs, 1.5 days of high carbs and 2 days of medium carbs.......protein was set at 1gram per lb of lbm.

I guess I am surprised by the 1 g and that you weren't higher. I am doing 1.4.

[energizer bunny]

well i was surprised to but in the book he says this is all you need to retain your LBM............im setting mine at 1.25 for my mma/running plan.

Cool mate, best of luck with your results, what are you going to do if you do have low T. Are you going to buy your own treat or will you be able to get it on prescription?

havent thought that far ahead mate, id have to look into it, i havent got a clue about self medicating, a lot of reseacrh would be needed. I dont know if the doc would prescribe TRT, the UK seems pretty far behind the US on this stuff.

could you maybe try a testosterone boosting diet before giving medication a go. Or maybe a anti-estrogen sup/drug

[energizer bunny]

that would be something id definately be looking into mate.........hopefully ill be ok lol......getting my thyroid checked next month.

Yeah fingers crossed for you mate. How long have you been cutting? Maybe your metabolism has crashed. Eating in a deficit for a long peroid of time can suppress testosterone production.

[energizer bunny]

ok well im getting my self back on track tomorrow after a week off diet and gym.......ive got 18 weeks to get my self super fit and strong.

overview of my plan for the next few month (subject to change as i progress) once college is over i will be adding mma back in the mix so it will change a bit in 8 weeks time.

im following wendlers 5,3,1 for my strength traininng, a mixture of running, rowing and skipping for my fitness/condition.

my diet is going to be simple, im going to eat around maintenance cals of 2000 with 1.25gram of protein per lb LBM, 0.4gram of fat per lb LBM and the rest of calories from carbs on strength training days.

20% below maintenance (cutting cals from carbs i.e from post workout) on fitness/condition days.

fast on rest day (sunday,only having water)

my food choices are going to be what i can eat regular, none of this bland shit etc, i will be eating whole grain, fruits, veg, starches, pro shakes, meat in curries and nice tasty dishes within my macro/cal guide lines.

and im going to have a cheat meal on saturday night.

i will adjust to lose 1lb a week.

monday-5,3,1 strength
tuesday- fitness/condition
wednesday-5,3,1 strength
thursday-fitness/condition
friday-5,3,1 strength
saturday-fitness/condition
sunday-rest

main goal is to get super fit and strong, i will be using heart rate monitor to gauge my fitness and my lifts to gauge my strength. ideally id like to lose 1lb a week BUT we will see.
