I've always been so afraid of losing strength that I rarely try to lose weight except pre-tournament. In here, I'll be logging my efforts to lower my bodyfat a bit through diet, conditioning, strength training, and jiu-jitsu training.


For future reference:
Super high carb day (?c, 200p, 0f)
High carb day (400c, 200p, 0f)
Medium Carb Day (200c, 265p, 50f)
low carb (100c, 300p, 100f)

Hey TD,

Whats your stats? You say you got 200g protein and was 100 short. . .there are few people that would need that much IMO.
 
We all differ in what we believe are necessary amounts of protein, but on low carb days, i have to make up my calories somewhere and usually its in protein.

That being said, I haven't logged anything because even though i've been on for about 70% of my meals for the last few days, the others have been garbage. mexican feast, pancakes, chicken wings, etc.
 
There is also a difference between "needing" the protein and it being directly not good for you.
If i had to choose a type of calorie to eat more of, it would certainly be protein. Especially for losing weight as it costs 25% of the energy of the protein to digest, most protein is also more filling than most carbs and fat
