I need help, getting really pissed off !!

Nuke,

I've done the CKD diet and had great success with it. I've done it many times and if I'm not taking anything I'm usually good for 20 pounds in about 2 to 3 weeks. Lots of water gone that first week.

What I've found is that when I'm taking AS and doing the Keto diet that I have to be really controlled with my carb up. I was carbing up for 2 and a half days last summer with good results, but I was also doing 1 amp of primo a week and 50 mg of V twice a week.

New years I weighed in at just over 185 pounds (I'm 5'5"). I managed to add some muscle (I figure about 5 pounds) and still come down to 151 pounds for the weigh in of my first contest at the end of last April. To be honest I was eating too many calories to begin with and my weight had fluctuated between 170 and 180 until mid march. That's when I took it all under control, cut my protein in half (didn't loose any muscle) and dropped down to under 160 by the end of April. I also lost some water with diuretics.

Watching the scale is the worst thing you can do. We all do it and I'm one of the worst. Go by the mirror and forget the scale. It sounds to me like you're making progress. Less body fat and you say you're looking better. I don't think you can ask for more than that.

This summer I've cut my carb up to a day and a half and that seems to be working well. Can't gain that much strength but all the fat I eat keeps the muscle. I plan on knocking it down to just a day.

I also find that taking in some fats with your carbs will keep you from bloating up too much. I like toast and peanut butter (natural peanut butter). I also make sure I pick breads that have no yeast, sugar, or bleached flower.

Demetri,

When you cut your protein in half was this below the minimum .9 grams per lbs of body weight?

I have been on the diet for one week and lost only 2 lbs and may need to cut calories from somewhere myself. I currently weigh 190 @ 6 ft tall w/ 24% body fat.


12*190= 2280 total calories
lbm[143]* 4= 572 protein calories
carb calories= 30*4= 120 calories
fat calories = 2280-572-120=1588

protein grams 143
carb grams 30
fat grams 163

This is basically what i have been eating this week. What should i do to speed up the fat loss progress?
