Diet revisions: My weight hasn't moved much (3-5lbs in 3 weeks), and to be awfully honest, I didn't feel like I am dieting much.
Several things that were causing this: 1. Late night munchies - it was getting to the point, where I've been having trouble falling asleep. 2. Girlfriend and friends dropping by. It is hard for Russians not to set up tea with sweets for guests, so I always been keeping something in case friends drop by, and would often eat some myself (even worse we would also....extract...certain chemical compounds from..plants).
3. Unstable schedule.
Revisions: First things first, I broke up with my GF...just a bad match, despite her being good looking. Doubt I will hook up with Brazilian girls again...really boring to be around, silent and outright lazy in bed, and ... whatever. Happily single and go back to focusing on dieting.
2. I am starting IF 16/8 protocol from tomorrow. My diet definitely needs more structure. Will create a meal plan later as well. I will start watching carb intake - not Keto, but will stress protein more. This will also help with sleep, since I will be getting a good chunk of calories right before bed.
3. Getting up early has been a challenge, but I feel like I have to start waking up at 6.30 a.m. Have lots of work to do, and I am too tired by night.
4. Short food list: IIFYM sounds great on paper, but eating whatever you want just doesn't work for me.
From now on will stick to: Lamb/Beef - Cottage Cheese - Brotein Pow(d)er - Veggies (More carrots) - Bananas/Spinach shakes - porridge. Will unblock certain members in case I eat something else --- for a day, as a method of self-punishment
.
I got rid of all the sugar in the house, will stick to Stevia.
I designated Sunday, Wednesday and Friday for power lifting and mobility work.
Let's get down to business, shall we?
