The best thing I can recommend is a two week fast.
6 Days only water, vitamins, and high sodium sports drinks. Eat a normal "raw" (grilled or baked meats, same for veggies) meal on day 7. Eat the same again if your stomach allows it. Then repeat. Of course this is (IMHO) for people under 50, no diabetes, no serious medical conditions...

Yesterday, I mixed up some nonfat Greek yogurt with some ranch mix and dipped carrots in it. Sometimes I'll do eggs and a piece of fruit. A big plate of plain potatoes is a another good one (you can eat a lot of potatoes for 500 calories and potatoes are extremely satiating).

Somethings that I'd suggest you fellas look into that have helped me with meal prep are:
A crock pot and a blender. You can make a few days worth of shit in the pot just throw it in there boom done. With a belnder add some milk, PB and whey protein you have yourself a nice morning shake and helps hit your macros. |

My target yesterday was 2500 calories but I only managed 1900. Today is my big day where I don't bother to count calories and eat what I want so I'll probably make it up.
I was disappointed yesterday when I was still at 218.2 lbs but I dropped today to 216.6 lbs, even after an up day, so I was pleased. |

Strangest thing (for me). I'm 71 now, 6'2" and weigh around 245. Got the dreaded Diabetes 2 nearly 6 years ago. About 4 months ago I started losing weight. Wasn't doing anything out of the "ordinary" - ate pretty much what I wanted. Still the weight was coming off. I went from 245 to 200 in the 4 months. Saw my Doctor, he couldn't figure it out - but was happy. Went to my Endo and she said the same thing - tested me for Cancer (My first thought as well) and nothing. Today? Weighed again - 198.........Naturally, I don't eat like I used to (Stomach is smaller) and I feel GREAT! So to hell with it...I guess that in 10-12 months I will just blow away.. Not knocking it, however. I'm thinking about writing a book titled "How I Did It"...but shit, It would only be one page..... |
