I left the gym at 213 lbs today. That brings my total, so far, to 51 lbs in 103 days. I’m fucking proud. I’m fucking happy. I’m fucking motivated. However, I’m nowhere near done. My goal of 196 will be met. I think I will probably be about 192 when my 76 days in a row are over.

I don’t know what the future holds, but it will most definitely be highlighted by fitness in one way or another. I will never let myself go again. I’ve done things that not many can do. That’s impressive, coming from someone who wanted to be off earth about 6-7 short months ago.

Today, I want to live. I want to live in discomfort and continue to show myself that I can overcome anything. I want to shower in iCE water every day, kill cardio, destroy weights and blow through a 200 degree sauna. I want to succeed. More than anything, I want to help others.

I’m hoping this summer when I’m where I want to be and where I want to maintain I ca. develop a program to help others. This won’t be science. This will be my experience. After losing 70 plus lbs in 6 months, I feel qualified to help others. I feel OBLIGATED to help others. Others should have the feeling I have today. Stay tuned mutha fuckas. The best is yet to come.

190’s. Here I come.

Here I am, closing in on 220, from 264. I have about 69 days until Memorial Day, when I will weigh in at 196. Here I am, still not seeing much. I want more. I want to be shredded, yesterday. Not necessarily so I can look good on beach and feel great going out all summer, but because I never thought I could dk this again.

The last 4 years have been so uninspiring. So just blah, at best. At worst, the last four years were damaging beyond measures I will never know. When you develop a fairly intense hate for yourself, things can go awry quite quickly. Now I got 69 days to look in the mirror and, for once, NOT think about how I should have just stuck with it when it got tough. 69 days to succeed, be proud, feel good.

So for these days I will be at the gym, every single day. When April starts I will drop may calories and go to one meal day of meat, eggs and goat cheese. While I do this, my cardio will go up greatly. I will walk 30-45 minutes daily and I will lift harder and heavier.

When it’s all said and done, I will then begin my journey from 196 (at most) and more than likely a bit skinny, to 196 and 13% body fat. I will add muscle. I will lose more body fat. Most importantly, I’m having a work hard, play hard, kick ass summer!!!

Food I’m eating now.

Ground beef 85-15

Shrimp

Eggs

Salmon

Steak

Liver

Sardines

Goat cheese

Hot sauce

Water…..

Let’s fucking goooooo!!! Start!!

I’m not going to lie, at this point my whole routine is so set that it’s really not that hard. However, that routine contains HARD work!

I’m now at the point where it’s booby and belly fat, the toughest to remove. See, when you are 265, eating like shit and not exercising, weight comes off fast when you are super consistent with gym and especially diet.

My biggest flaw is a lack of patience. I know if I stay consistent, I’ll be where I want, EASILY. It won’t be as easy as it has been, results wise though. There just isn’t as much loose weight.

In conclusion, bring on the fucking GRIND!!

This month I will keep same routine and lower calories a tiny bit. In April, I may lift heavier and eat twice. Then the serious cut begins from May 1st to Memorial Day.

Get out of your comfort zone. START!

While the carbs settled my stomach and I felt a little stronger, I gained two lbs in 6 days. However, I was eating a TON of carbs 🙄. For the next week and hopefully through March, I’m going to eat mushrooms, onions, squash, beef, eggs, seafood, olives.

Hopefully this will be lighter on me and my weight loss goals and better on my stomach💩. I plan on losing another 15 by April 1st. That will bring me to 214, as I’m 229 now.

April will be stiff of legends. I will up everything and get under 200 by May 1st. Then I can just work on losing straight fat. No muscle.

Goals. Im obsessed with them. And I don’t care. 💪🏼. Addicted.

So, after massive success with meat, fish, eggs and some olives, suddenly I just couldn’t keep it in my system anymore. Diarrhea of the worst kind. That phase is over… for now.

Now the question is, what can I eat. Seeing that I eat once a day, which is very hard on me as is, I’ve decided to add in some low glycemic carbs since superbowl Sunday. Sweet potatoes, quinoa, squash, onions, mushrooms and black beans to be exact.

I figured I’d add a decent amount of carbs and try to throw some muscle on and enjoy my meals more, all while not exploding daily. So far it has worked. I’m still at close to a pound a day weight loss and no more 🌋💩🙄

I’m thinking I’ll taper the carbs down a bit but keep a similar diet through February. I’m 227 now, and down 37 pounds in 59 days. it seems surreal, but I’m putting in the work.

In March I will drastically lower the carbs again in hopes that it was just a passing 💩 thing. If not, oh well. I will eat some tasty carbs and work my ass off. Either way, I’m going to be 196 Memorial Day. No options. That’s just what it is. ❤️💪🏼

Til next time✊🏻

2-9-23

I feel like a fucking savage. Like a machine. I’ve never felt so strong mentally. Physically, I can feel my body getting stronger. In just 54 days I’ve lost 33 lbs, and it’s EASY right now, for me.

However, when I think of what I do from the outside it’s not easy. Here’s what I do right now. I will only add to the things I do in the coming months with different codes and different hacks. But for now:

💪🏼Wake up: 3am

Clean place

12 oz black coffee

16 oz water

Tongkat Ali

Fish oil

Vit d

Ice cold shower

💪🏼Gym 4am

25 minutes walking burning more calories every single day.

1 body part 3-4 sets, 100 reps minimum

Battle ropes 2 sets

Sauna 180

40 minutes

3 waters

Cold shower

💪🏼6 work

15k steps

💪🏼Food

Clean Beef

Eggs

Salmon

Liver

Olives

Sardines

Broth

Electrolytes

💪🏼sleep

7 hrs minimum.

10-12 bottles of water.

No. It’s not EASY. But after you start it becomes the ONLY way. After 2-3 weeks you will know no other way. It’s possible. Get tough for a damn month of your life. You just gotta believe in yourself. Obviously, you don’t need the same time frame.😀

I’m full go ahead and, although the sauna’s broke at my shitty gym, I’m locked in on succeeding. That’s a whole different issue that I just figure out ASAP, as I’m a sauna addict.

However, My diet has been on point. I have been doing 1 meal a day for the last 2 weeks. This glorious meal is at about 3:30-4:30 pm. It has consisted of mostly eggs and beef. I also have a weekly dose of seafood and organ meat (on which I must put onions). Usually, I will have salmon and liver as the extras but I also sub in heart and cod, scallops and shrimp maybe every other week.

Towards the end of January, I added in olives as a filler to add some flavor and some extra nutrients. I also have been seasoning my meat, eggs, seafood with camp mix and a little cayman pepper. Some carnivore groups and sheep say I shouldn’t, but I really don’t give a shit what anyone says. I’m going to do what feels best.

I’m down 25 lbs since December 18th, but I have plateaued a bit as of late. My body is getting used to what I’m doing. It is time to pick up cardio, lifting etc. this month. I will go back to boxing a few nights a week and lift a bit more and add some more steps per day. The sauna is a huge concern. I may just bite the bullet and join lifetime until the summer. God knows I spend my money on worse things. This month will be more about cardio, fasting, staying disciplined and continuing results. March will be about eating a little less calories and more fat. I just keep my body guessing.

Here is February’s diet plan:

One meal a day Monday through Saturday

2 meals 12-4 on Sundays.

Monday-Saturday:

Beef, eggs, butter, olives, black coffee, LMNT electrolytes, gallon of water.

3:30-4:30 window.

Sunday:

1st meal and daily routine stuff:

Seafood or organ meat, butter, black coffee, olives, electrolytes, gallon of water.

2nd meal.

Beef, eggs, olives.

Other things I have been doing is Ice cold showers, one when I wake up at 4 am and one after sauna. I haven’t felt warm water in a shower in about a year. If you are not doing this and you are tired all day, stop being a baby, suck it up, and DO IT!! Along with sauna it’s by far the most satisfying thing I do. It has saved my life to be honest. Try it. You will get used to it.

I’ve also been big on coconut oil on my skin after the gym routine. My skin has been great.

I’ve been more focused on getting 10k steps a day, since I’m really not a cardio machine.

I set up clothes for next day, make bed, do dishes and make sure everything is stress free for when I get home from work. It matters.

All this shit is easy now. Like an addiction, which I’m great at picking up, trust me. 🙄. However, it’s super hard to start. Took me 4 damn years to get back. One day at a time I’m present and ready to do whatever it takes to get to 196 on Memorial Day. I want to show people they can. I want to show myself, I can. Let’s goooo!!

I’m two days into this phase, down 24 lbs in 30 days and ready to gradually step up my eating and fitness activities. Here is the first two days amd next 28 days routine.

Wake up 3:45-4 am

12 oz black iced coffee

16 oz water

Ice cold shower

Tongkat Ali

Fish oil

Vitamin D

Gym 5 days at 4:35 am

Hill walk 10 minutes

1 body part. 3 sets of reps to failure

Pull rope 100 pulls

Battle ropes 2 sets to failure

Sauna 45 minutes

Abolene during your sweat and clean skin

Coconut oil for skin after

Minimum gallon of water

10,000 steps

One meal from 4-5 pm

Beef and eggs

Organs once a week with onions (only carb)

Sleep by 9 (easy)

See you at 196 muthafucka

As I sit in the sauna and reflect on the last 30 days, I have mixed emotions.

Why didn’t I start earlier instead of wasting 4 years.

Why cant I got under 240…Even down 23 lbs in 30 days.

Holy Fuck, I got this!!

Why am I still so tired!

Wtf am I doing with my life!

The mind can be a crazy thing. However, through it all, I get the fuck up ar 4 am and get my ass to the gym every day I can. I’m now eating one meal a day, consisting of about a lb of steak and 6 eggs.

Though I’m very impatient, it’s working. Results motivate me. When I don’t see results I go through the motions anyway. Every day. I’m coming out on the other side.

I will be under 200 lbs on Memorial Day. I will be 196 to be exact. It matters because I said I’d do it. I’m done failing. I’m done quitting. The only path I’m taking until then is the path of a fucking warrior.

See you in 30 days, down another 15!

This journey has been 7 years long. After a tough relationship, I got myself physically right. I felt like a million dollars physically for 3 years. mentally, I was absolutely miserable, working at a racist, scummy job for a year. Horrible.

After spiraling down physically, I went back to my old job that I loved. But… now I’m out of shape in body and kind and life is good on the outside. I love work. I love my life to this day. However , I hate being a fat fuck. It fucks with me every day.

Now I’m 100% back. One day at a time, I wake up and fucking grind. I’ve lost 18 lbs in 18 days. Mentally, I’m clear. Physically, I’m getting there. I see my goal of 196 by Memorial Day and it’s within reach. I’m addicted. This summer all my hard work will pay dividends. Time to really round out my life and live with a purpose. I’ll be back when this journey is and goal is done. 196

See you Memorial Day, mutha fuckas. If you are struggling don’t quit. No matter what anyone says. No matter how much you fuck up. Do NOT quit. Ever.
