Bread for gains

6/28/2014

0 Comments

 
Bread!!! That used to be my staple food back in high-school. I'd eat bread 3 times a day.. When I first started eating "clean", bread was by no means considered a good carb.. heck, not even a bad carb. It was just not a viable source for carbohydrates. I was off bread for so long, I didn't crave it, I simply felt like including it since it gave me such anxiety previously that when I had a slice, I would feel like I have "cheated" and binge.

This was yet another GREAT week!! Sunday right through until Saturday. Even though I did not track the snack foods I had at an event on Saturday night, I DID NOT BINGE. Not even once!! I'm in ecstasy! My weight ranged from 57.4 kg - 57.8 this week.

Thigh Gap? Like I give A shit

6/21/2014

Besides enjoying junk on Sunday and Monday, the week was fabulous! I hit my macros almost all the time, give or take 1-2g of carbs or protein.

I didn't feel as "wide" at my lower body, my hips felt tighter and my regular gym clothes started t fit perfectly again- with no love handles! More people gave me good remarks at the gym as well, so that gave me a little push in the right direction. I'm even starting to see a little thigh gap again, NOT that that is my goal, I'll be closing that gap soon enough with some muscle.

My weight was anything from 56.9 kg - 57.5 kg this week. I definitely feel like I got the hang of it.

Slowly increasing my macros

6/14/2014

0 Comments

 
A first! A GREAT week. I almost had no problem sticking to the set of macros. I have had two guys at my gym comment saying I looked great, not as "big" as months before, as if I have lost weight. I did feel happier. I felt happy with how shapely my body had gotten since 2013.

The scale fluctuated many times during the week, but I came in .1 gram lighter than the week before. My core felt tighter and I was pushing more in the gym.

My training program still consists of the 5x5 strength program, which I will be following until the 18th of July. My cardio is still basically non existent. I'll do a few minutes rope skipping or treadmill sprinting once a week or every two weeks. But mostly no cardio.

No Crossfit or cardio, Purely weights!

Having just started out to reverse diet myself in order to build up my metabolic capacity and be able to eat tons of food without gaining weight, I had some trouble sticking to the macros this week. Wednesday and Saturday involved little-lots of treats out of macros.

Regardless, here's my first progress photo for the week (1 June - 7 June). My updates will be as follow: 1 week following a set of macros (1-6 June), then a progress picture on the coming Saturday (7 June) of that particular week (the 6/7 days before the date on the picture, 1-6 June). I will describe my calorie intake and macros breakdown, as well as my training an nutrition for that week.

As of 1 June, I started on a 5x5 strength training program. I completely stopped doing CrossFit but did about 3-4 times a week bodyweight exercises at home with my brother (1-6 June).

I didn't change my macros since I wanted to see whether I gained or maintained my weight on this intake, since I was starting to be more consistent.

The Reverse Diet

6/1/2014

June 1st, Sunday, marks the beginning of my own reverse diet. After months of jumping back and forth, I finally got the hang of counting macros, being more balanced and including a wider variety of foods into my diet. Note that I am still not up to date with uploading previous photos (September 5th now), but here on out I kept note on what I did.

This does not really count as a progress picture, as it is my starting picture, my "before". I mostly take my progress pictures on a Saturday, unless I have to travel somewhere to attend a function or whatever, then I will take it the day before I leave or the morning of departure.

I don't think I followed a particular set of macros for most of the month May, this is the official day 1 of actually starting IIFYM and reverse dieting (although I have had / still will have setbacks).
