Slow Carb Diet Weigh In

Here is an update on the decreasing the body fat percentage.
Down to 25.8% this morning. While t's decreasing, it's not dropping off as fast as planned.

The next tweak is ice packs on the back of my traps for 30min per day OR the PAGG stack.

Note: My cheat day is on Saturdays and I weigh in on Mondays

Slow Carb Diet Food Log

0800 Breakfast

Slow Carb Diet

Been a while since I updated people on my fat loss adventures. Last week I had decided to step up the fat loss regime. I moved on from the 30g protein breakfast. Which didn't drop any body fat for me. I was however eating my usual naughty snacks and treats during the rest of the day.

So as of Tuesday 22nd Jan 2013 I have been on the Slow Carb Diet. In summary it as follows.

1 No White carbohydrates (or anything that can be white)

2 Eat the same few meals over and over again

3 Don't drink any calories

4.No fruit

5.One day per week off (eat what ever you want)
For more info on the Slow Carb Diet, I'd recommend 'The 4 Hour Body by Timothy Ferriss'

Saturday was my cheat day and I went for it. I've logged my progress so far. I've not really lost anything significant in my first week on the Slow Carb Diet but I shall give it another week and see how it goes.

Days 10, 11 and 12 on 30g Protein Breakfasts

Day 10 - x2 scrabbled eggs with smoked salmon. Should have gone with 3 eggs
Day 11 - unflavoured protein shake (was running late)
Day 12 - 3 soft boiled eggs.

This far in, I truly feel I could maintain this lifestyle change after the 14 experiment. I'll measure up on the 14th day and see If I've lost any body fat.

The next experiment will be a 6 week challenge with HGS to see who can lose the most body fat. I will be using the slow carb diet as promoted by Tim Ferris in the 4 hour body.

Monday we take body fat readings. Me and Half Guard Steve that is. Think he will probably having a wager at work and rope another person in.

If you're up for the challenge, join us. 6 week only. Who can decrease body fat percentage the most.
