HCB's Journal, 03 February 2016

Happy Wednesday, Best Buddies:

Tweak, Tweak, Tweak. I focused on getting my NET carbs under 20 the last five days, and tried for a little more protein each day, and...The Idiot Boxes moved a smidge!

Today, I was in a range between 170.8 and 171.6 but will wait until I am solidly under 171 before I log my weight.

I lifted heavier at the gym yesterday - used dumbbell weights ranging from 20lbs to 40lbs, with other body weight moves and HIIT intervals on brief cardio.

MY CURRENT GOAL: Discuss changes with endocrinologist (SENT HIM A FAX ON FEBRUARY 1st), try for lower carb percentage, lift heavier at the gym and see caliper bodyfat move down in February.

MY LONG RANGE GOAL:
Body fat at 26% or less and scale weight in the 150's or less

NEW Words of the Week:
"Be not afraid of growing slowly; be afraid only of standing still.” ~ Chinese Proverb

I am dedicated, determined and diligent

Great work! Sometimes the body just needs a little nudge to get it to do what you want. Keep it going!

HIIT Training is awesome :)

Hopefully the weight movement down will stick! I'm thinking that it's especially good to see it after a day you did heavier lifting as that's something you'd expect to lead to a temporary gain due to water.

Was that cardio pre or post weight workout?

Yes, I think it was tweaking my carbs down and watching my protein, too.

@Mahjohn - I generally do 20 minutes cardio AFTER weight work.

Good for you hoping it continues to work for you. We all need the encouragement seeing those numbers go down no matter how slowly.

I'm so impressed with your determination and dedication! I suspect keeping those carbs low will help you out. Good luck...

HCB, you look amazing. I took a look at your pictures 3 times and thinking to myself, that is not the same person. Keep up the great work.

Hi, are you doing the Ketosis diet? I am. Wondering how it is going and what are your biggest challenges?
