I feel so much better eating less. I can't stress this enough. Much less laziness throughout the day, I don't sleep through entire mornings, etc. Of course it makes weightlifting progress stagnate, but I think this should provide me motivation to only do very slow lean bulks moving forward if anything. I don't want to lose this feeling of being light and awake.

The mornings after which I don't fast I am just wide awake. Even if I wake up in the middle of the night, like 2-3am and go pee... I'm very alert and aware. Not dragging myself back to bed like a zombie.

Worked out at a different gym. Also had to work out while fasted (usually those are my rest days), yet I was still able to increase from 100x3 to 100x5 on the incline db bench. Goes to show how much it helps to have proper dumbbells to lift with, and a proper warm up scheme (lots of dumbbells missing at my usual gym).

Makes me wonder if, when I was at 100x5 at my current less than decent gym, would I have hit 100x8 at this gym?



Did not expect to drop another 2lbs. Probably due to lifting while fasting today - dryer than usual.

Had a bit of a re-feed after that 194.0 weigh in. Not sure if ill continue the re-feed the next day or what

Looks like my strength may have stabilized now after losing the glycogen.

hah nice @ the graph.

Haha yeah, i think it's nice to see numbers visualized for easy trend spotting. I'm guessing after the sharp drop in muscle glycogen and water weight, the weight loss should more or less slow down at about a pound every 4-5 days.

Ideally i want to workout every other day and fast on the rest days, but that can't work since my gym is closed sundays.
So i'll probably do just 2 completely fasted days per week and eyeball a maintenance eating day on workout days. Workout days consist of pre workout meal 8am (usually some whey, oatmeal, banana and coffee), post workout meal 11am (more whey, some fruits, cottage cheese, etc) and then dinner 6pm or later (varies, an actual meal and more protein)

Trying to avoid processed sugars and get in complex carbs and casein.
