Bodyweight: 171 lbs.
Bodyfat percent: 14.8% (25.5lbs of fat)
Total pounds lost this week: 0 lbs.
Total fat pounds lost this week: .5lb (about .4% bodyfat)
This week I broke the diet at least once every single day. Also, I only worked out one day this week and it was only for about 10 minutes. In addition to this, I also stopped taking my supplements maybe half way through the week. So all and all, I did really, really bad.
When I say I ‘broke my diet’, I don’t mean that I ate lots of fat or carbs; in fact, my ratios for the week (despite not following the diet) were about 30% protein, 40% carbs, and 30% fat (and ironically, these are the exact ratios for the zone diet). But I did have either rice, bread, sugar, or milk at least once every day this week; which are all not on my diet.
It’s not that I planned to fail; but somehow when I drove back down to LA I dropped the ball and ended up eating out a lot (which meant breaking the diet). Also, I was really over tired this week from sleeping on so many different couches and I ended up forgetting to bring my supplements in from the car a few nights; so I ended up not taking them for most of the week.
Despite totally failing on the diet though, I still lost 1/2lb of fat. I’m happy that I was also still able to maintain my bodyweight from last week.
Needless to say, the next 4 weeks I’ll have to really fight to make it to 8% bodyfat. If I continue at the same rate that I’ve been going, I’ll be around 10.5% bodyfat at the end of next month; which will be 2.5% shy of my goal. In order to make it I’ll definitely have to start taking some fat burning pills, although I hate them very much (maybe I’ll get some without caffeine).
Also when I go down to LA next, I’m going to just restart my membership at LA Fitness. Then, even if I end up not following the diet when I’m there, I’ll at least be able to work off the bad calories.
It has become increasingly difficult to fit this diet regiment into my crazy schedule. I only hope I can hold on long enough to finish the next 4 weeks.
