 | Still not loosing  Hi guys,I've now been following my diet which I posted up for about 6 weeks now and have not lost any weight. I have gained muscle and am very happy with what gains i've made since I started training.It just seems that the bloody scales get stuck on the same number week atfter week.I am going on holiday at the end of april and really would like to get as much weight off as possible without loosing my gains.Any diet ideas ? I am sure its diet as I am literally working my **** off in the gym. Many thanks Paul |

If you're sure it's not this, and you're sure you've been following a strict diet without cheating, then I would suggest reducing your carbs even further. Raise up your protein slightly to help reduce/prevent catabolism. | |

  | Paul... lower the calorie totals! If you want to loose weight faster you lower the calorie amounts or raise the activity... again, doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result is... |

The only objective way to control fat is the calorie. The calorie is the currency of the body much the same as the £ is the currency of uk and $ to the usa. The calorie is a exact law which is undisputed by any person with even basic knowledge of nutrition (look on any food label) why you have never heard this before is because know can actually tell you how to understand this along with protien ..yes protien is directly related to muscle maintinace and of course increase. Again it is the application these 2 fundmentals that cause such confusion I will try to explain this.... You will need to do a few logical steps. Forget the amount of calories you should be having learn to check what you are doing first. Count your calories each day you will need a set of digital scales and caloire book...keep the amounts of food at 25 of 50 and 75gms this make seasy conversion in quaters halfs and 3quarters of the calories per 100 grams Count grams of protein forget how many you should be on. You can sort that at a later date the key is to forget carbs and fat cals or grams its not the right currency keep to calories and protein in grams This will become self evident later because if you control the calories then fat will become the greatest calorie condensed food and so eleminates itslef as the calories come down. Also if your counting protien and get it to where you want to (wheter its 1 gram per pound 2g whatever) you can only be left with carbohydrate.... so why count it ?? You then add all caloires up over 7 days dont feel all the foods you eat you weigh some have the content on the packets boxs etc Then add all the calories up over 7 days ......eureeka..you have you total weeks caloires if you now divide them up by 7 you get you daily calories exactly. Now simply reduce your daily caloires by 500 a day or 3500 a week There is your pound of fat with the protein intake at what ever yoiu want be it 100 or 200 grams a day freeze this protein amount in grams ie per meal You may be on say 4 x 600 calorie meals (30 or 40 grams or protein) and reduce to 4 x 500 and now you can see that any cardio is a direct deficiet to calories and can be counted as a loss in total daily or weekly intake ..........simple it is and simply it does. you feel lost at the prospect of have to check it all out. You calorie book is your bible you need faith in mathamtics and dont trust your own opinion hunger has a great way of letting us know we are right to increase calories. What you find confusing here i encourage you to research yourself it will be easier to understand kind regards vern what he means is | |
