Big Boy Optimus's Journal, 10 September 2015

Back on track with a lovely 2.7kg drop to bring my weight down to 114.5kg :D What's amazing is that I only started my fasting for weight loss again on Monday because last week's plan to start fasting on Friday had failed!

So Basically my week was as follows :
Thurs - Low Carb Non-Fast Day (Carbs kept to under 30g)

Fri - Ate whatever I wanted and stopped counting around 2000 calories at lunchtime!

Sat - Ate whatever I wanted and didn't count calories

Sun - Ate whatever I wanted and didn't count calories

Mon - Low Carb Fast Day (Carbs kept to under 30g) + Gym

Tues - Low Carb Non-Fast Day (Carbs kept to under 50g) + Gym

Wed - Low Carb Fast Day (Carbs kept to under 30g)

It seems that my experiments have given me a good blend of using Intermittent Fasting, 5:2(4:3) and Low Carb eating principles to get to eat what I want and still lose weight as long as I keep to those principles. Perhaps doing just 1 form of weight loss is too restrictive for too long and that's the problem most overweight people have in sustaining it. I hope my journal helps people :)

Thanks goes out to all my FatSecret buddies :) All the best in your journey :)

I knew you would have a good drop but you exceeded by expectation completely. That's almost 3 kg in 3 days. Excellent stuff!

Thanks LCFF :) I wouldn't count it as weight loss in 3 days although it appears like that. My weight was 117.2kg last Thursday morning and after that Thursday's low carb non-fast day where I had a hell of a lot of protein I had lost over 1kg by Friday morning. My unofficial weight on Monday morning was in the 116kg range and dropped to today's weight. Either way, I'm very happy :)

I've never been a coffee connoisseur, I'm a real teapot lol...but found a cup of Jacobs really kills the appetite and if I am really struggling then I will drink a big 500ml glass of water. It works!

Use the calorie bump from time to time. It seems to free things up. Just make sure it's from time to time. That's you? I thought that was Mr. Clean! ;) Actually, I kind of look like Beaker from the muppets. I should shut up now.

Thanks everyone :) As usual, I spent my Thursday eating out and indulging. My sister wanted to try out the food at a place called Mo-Zam-Bik. Starters was a platter of calamari, chicken livers, olives, pastry filled with chicken and pastry filled with prawns, some sauce dips and portuguese rolls. Then I has a nice basted 300g rump steak with veg and mash. Then came dessert. . . OMG!!! The menu said the Pembla Pavlova can serve 2 but that thing was HUGE! 3 of us ate it and could have fed another person or 2!!!! I would post a pic but I don't want to give people on here any cravings! I'll try to log all this on my food diary but im going to just skip the starters because I don't know the calories and weight of what I ate.

I actually had no idea who Mister Clean was so I looked him up and honestly S it was a mini version of you. Too funny. p.s. Glad you had a good time out today :)

OMW! I also had no idea who Mr Clean is and I googled him now after you said you looked him up :) lmfao!How insanely cool! hahahaha

He was the epitome of cool... for an advertisement character. You make it work, man.

I don't think we got the Mr. Clean character here in South Africa. He looks older so perhaps I'm his doppleganger :D
