The unflavored/plain rice cakes dipped in apple cider vinegar would give me that boost I needed right before a workout, esp. on cardio days.

Count your blessings. I will take that over 80+ degree weather any day. Another year where Christmas will be spent at the beach and making sand angels, when others will be enjoying cold air and snow and making snowmen, snow angels, etc.

Going to be around 50ish on Friday...last day to get the Z out. Might change the oil for winter storage if it's not too bad.

Yeah, I would’ve been impossible to be around in that same situation. That’s kinda where me and the wife landed. We decided to get serious again about our healthy eating in march so lots of seasoned baked chicken (so much chicken lol), lots of fruits and veggies. Only whole wheat if we eat pasta occasionally. We pretty much completely cut out all bread. Baked potatoes are a go once a week with a dash of butter and garlic, gotta eat the skin as well for 5he nutrients. We do 2 cheat meals per week (2 dinners, no full cheat days). That is usually either pizza or steak. We only eat red meat about once a week. Not the most hard core diet but it works and while strict, it’s not insane strict. In fact we feel so much better on it we actually feel poisoned after going out to eat or getting pizza once in a while so it’s like a delicious treat, but then your body’s like, nope, not again for a while. We started in march of 5his year and in 5 months my total cholesterol dropped from 248 to 160, and i went from little pot belly to a hint of a six pack at rest and a half decent six pack flexed. No cardio bc I fvcking hate it and i hardly ever leave the house (health issues). Unfortunately im only able to train once every 7-10 days bc of injury/health problems. Still hav3 gained 9 lbs so far this year after 11 1/2 years off being bedridden 90% of that time, in and out of the er, getting throat and lung surgeries etc, and only eating once every 24-48 hrs. I got by my body lol. (Currently 230 lbs, hoping to hit 235 by next spring). Seems like your moving into a similar type diet with your hybrid phase. Even though the whole world is poisoned at 5his point, I still think it’s slightly helpful to try eat organic/non gmo. It’s not a miracle or anything, but it’s a bit better. The biggest thing is staying away from processed and ultra processed foods, especially meats, ie deli meats, bacon, sausage, pepperoni (my cheat meal , all fast food, frozen ready to eat dinners etc. just trying to increase the amount of natural foods and decrease the amount of processed food is probably the biggest health improvement anyone can make. Sounds like we’re both doing that. Congrats btw on your 17.7” cannons. You inspired me to hit it harder. I’m only at 16.5” measured cold, am, flexed. Got to add two mor inches to get back to my best #s, but at this point it might be a pipe dream. Goal is to get to 17.5” by next Halloween. We’ll see if my health holds up. |

Oh, I almost forgot, speaking of fats…
I am actually on a low-moderate low glycemic index carb, moderate fat, high protein diet One gram of protein per pound of body weight from direct sources (not counting the incidental protein from veggies, nuts etc) Mostly Fats come from unsaturated, omega 3 type sources like a variety of nuts Already discussed the carbs. I think eating a higher amount of good fats and severely limiting bad ons like saturated fat, omega 6s (red meat) really helps, at least it does for me. I’m not eating enough carbs to fuel my body per day so the fat burning gets turned on and the healthy fats help with that. Not a full hard core keto type diet but like you, kinda of a hybrid. |

Yeah, it’s a requirement that you leave with a minimum of fvcked up knees lol. Mine are wrecked too. During MEPS they were so worried about everyone’s knees, (remember the duck walk test). If only they cared as much when you separate. |
