. Now I am hoping a “Porterhouse”
No daily porterhouse lol just happen to use that day as an example of my macro's break down. Probably safe to say that the majority of my weight came from years of a stationary job, and absolute shit diet of fast food, sodas, and processed sugars. I usually eat venison, fish, and chickens we raise ourselves. The breakdown is probably 40% venison, 20% chicken, 20% beef (all grass fed organic) and 10% pork, 10% fish.Just working on losing my belly again and building strength and muscle back up. The 186 goal is just a number I picked but realisticly i dont feel terrible at 190/195 and strong. Have been their in the past just let life make excuses for me the last few years.I’d love to eat a few of those items ! Youll get a slew of answers , but, I’m glad you posted up FOOD!. Now I am hoping a “Porterhouse”
Isn’t the normal daily food …? Good on ya about using a cup of Kefir, Kimchi, Kombucha, Sauerkraut, Black Bean paste, etc. Very good move. At 220lbs your calories aren’t so bad, but your looking to lose 34lbs! Do you want to lose pure body fat or just drop 34lbs total , that is the important piece of info .
When I want to lose weight, retain muscle; I switch things up . It has so much to do with your (past history & physical). Number one, take in 1.25-1.5g per lb of protein (sometimes a tad more), I definitely try to keep my red meat to a minimum (eating game meats) when possible. A good Modified Mediterranean diet goes a long way if your able to restrict calories and train hard ! Lots of good Fish/Shellfish, Lean Turkey/Chicken . Good luck to you .
I like what you ate , just not exactly (normal ) for weight loss. Hope that helps

Bcaa capsules help out a lot , beyond stimulants .
Appreciate you Max...the process is underway! Have been getting to the gym minimum 4x a week, 5 has been my goal. I will look closer at ingredients. Appreciate you taking the time to respond.Well.. let’s get you going Dirtyiron! I figured you didn’t eat porterhouse ED but… I had to ask . Lol. The diet you present sounds perfect . The best way to start is to just start . Anyone can take 45min out of their day 3-4x a week. Imo, I’d start working your way to either doing cardio around the neighborhood or hit the gym (start out at 3 days a week). Getting that first month under your belt is sooo important.
2 ways I know will help you lose weight and reach your goal!
1. No “enriched flour”
2. No “high fructose corn syrup”
Just by making sure you aren’t eating either of these , drops about 80% of the products in the store. Truly. Always look at the Ingredients and just try to pick food with “one or two ingredients “. It’s a lot harder than training but totally worth it . After about 3 weeks of soreness, being tired , you get a big boost of energy and feel good! Always check with your MD first, but I’m sure you know the drill. Optimum hormones and Max Health

you are using this a weigh loss diet? I'm 6'1 190. I was 230 in August 2022 and that was fat. I lost 40+pounds of fat and I didn't eat any of the things you listed. a steak yeah but 1 time a week. I was eating chicken and rice or potato 2x day, muscle milk protein I would not use. if you are using for meal replacement I think BSN low calorie protein(called edge) is great. I still use it everyday for my durning the day shake. an iso protein for post workout is what I ğrecommend. and go back to the BSN for a night time shake.
my best weight loss tips are to cut out bread and sugar, do a quick 5min warm up cardio before lifting weights to get your heart rate up so you really sweat. Less time in-between sets (keeps your heart rate up). keep reps between 12-15 for 2 weeks switch to 8-10 heavier weight for 1 week, then back to 12-15. end every work out with cardio. I used that to lose 40lbs in 4 months. it's do able.
Did something similar..it's Def doable.
Pretty close to what i have been doing. I will give the switching reps up a try. Right now i have been doing 15-20/12/12/trying for 10. Rest between sets is usually under a minute. I will add in the warm up cardio. Have some cardarine coming, hoping that will help a little with my cardio after weights.
Cardarine was in my weight loss recomp 2021..
I also forgot to tell you I was doing test e 250mg and 400mg Primo every 5 days. the fat was melting off.
that's impressive. I still have some minor belly fat that's just passing me off. it ruins me. I need to get rid of the last bit.
Appreciate it. In the next week or 2 i will be starting up again. Probably going to run 250-300 test cyp wkly , 300 npp wkly, 50mg proviron daily, and have primo ace tabs that i'll either run this go around or when i run hex the blast after this one. Got great results in the past from npp and know how i react to it so starting up again with something familiar seems like a good place to start.
