Complacent Combustion

Friday, 2/06/09

Morning Weight= 213.0 lbs
Net Change From Previous Week= 0.0 lbs

Bengali Prime has had a bad week. It happens to all us, even to those in possession of the matrix. Even with the substantial amount of gym time this week, I had no scale change in weight. Although I do believe I may have put on a bit of upper body muscle mass, as evidenced by increased strength in the gym, that does not offset the failure to remove the requisite amount of body fat I had originally targeted. With failure however, comes the opportunity to learn, improve, and adjust accordingly.

As such, in order to reach my goal weight of 200.00 lbs by March 10th, 2009 (approximately 4 1/2 weeks away), the following modifications are to be made-

NEW STRICT TRAINING/NUTRITION INCORPORATIONS:
1. 3 Meals Per Day (Only 1/2 lb meat per serving or 6 eggs)
2. No greater than 10 grams of carbohydrates daily
3. 1 serving of whey protein immediately after resistance training, & another 2-3 hours after.
4. Incorporation of Intermittent Fasting 2 days this upcoming week.
5. NO ALMONDS OR NUTS OF ANY KIND!!! (Perhaps the most important)

This plan will be followed until next Friday, and its effectiveness evaluated therein. Today, I had chosen to have a free day. I am not going to become a train wreak diet wise, but I have chosen to be flexible and indulge in some long forgotten treats; These have included a morning Pete's Coffee Mocha & a chicken burrito for lunch.

Stay tuned, Bengali Prime shall bounce back Stronger.... & LEANER...

  2. intermittent fasting eh? what is that exactly? 2 days without food? or 2 days of caloric restriction? have you heard of the alternate day caloric restriction diet?... people seem to have a lot of success with it... see http://www.amazon.com/Alternate-Day-Diet-M-D-James-Johnson/dp/0399154930 and http://archives.chicagotribune.com/2008/feb/26/health/chi-0226_health_diet_rfeb26
    not saying i know much about this...but i read an article about the guy who made this popular, and it sounded interesting and doable.
