    Big Dawgs Psmf Journey To 225

    Going to try a psmf style diet...to see what kind of results i can get.

    I will be monitoring my blood sugar daily...every few hours...will start bringing my tester to work with me so if i have a low blood sugar i can take something and correct it.

    blood sugar this morning-78
    weight this am 248

    this will be my diet for today (will vary depending on when i workout)

    meal 1
    2 scoops nitrean
    1 can tuna fish

    meal 2
    6 oz chicken
    2 scoops nitrean

    meal 3
    6 oz chicken

    meal 4

    1 can tuna

    Calories Eaten Today
    source grams cals %total
    Total: 1040
    Fat: 9 77 7%
    Sat: 0 0 0%
    Poly: 0 0 0%
    Mono: 0 0 0%
    Carbs: 8 32 3%
    Fiber: 0 0 0%
    Protein: 230 920 89%
    Alcohol: 0 0 0%

    (the above does not include the fish oil caps)

    supps taken
    6g fish oil 2g in meal 1,3 and 4
    1000 mg vitamin c
    vitamin b complex

    split will be as follows

    sunday chest and biceps
    monday cardio
    tuesday-back
    wednesday-cardio
    thursday-legs
    friday-shoulders and triceps
    saturday-cardio

    will try to do cardio after all lifting sessions also

    saturday will be the refeed day..at least check bodyfat was 18.6%...will take a new set of pics next sunday then every sunday after

    goal is 12% bodyfat...which i assume would be somewhere between 215-220

    i am hoping with the psmf that i can come close to reaching this close to the new year.

    Well man, good luck! IMO PSMF is the easiest diet there is. Cravings are a bit of an issue but just kick them in the ass and you'll be fine. As far as hunger, I wasn't hungry very often on it because I knew my next meal was either chicken, egg whites, or tuna

    Anyways, good luck bro, you should come close to your goal by New Years.
