When you have a body that is packed with muscle, it needs more energy to run efficiently - even when it is resting. A well-muscled body burns more calories than a body that is coated with fat. Because you have been working out, your metabolism starts to work a little more efficiently. Fat sits there, doing nothing, and seems to be like a magnet inviting a load of it friends to join it.
The more you train the more you can do. It is an amazing experience. It's a bit like reaching a critical mass. You often hear this in business. When you reach a critical mass of clients, your business becomes self-perpetuating. Clients get more clients for you. When you get to an ideal fat level, the body seems to burn up the excess fat without really trying. I found, with my journey, I lost a fair amount right in the beginning then it almost came to a stop. I was getting quite concerned but I persisted. When the fat eventually started to disappear, it just continued. The most amazing thing was, one day I saw a huge difference - yet a few days before I felt I was fighting a losing battle.
As long as you are honest with your intake of food and your training, you will win. You know when you have cheated. I certainly did, even though I would try to justify it. Accept it - resolve to better the next day, and move on.
Today’s food was fairly simple. I attended a breakfast meeting again, but this place gave me a limited choice, so I was rather starved even after the breakfast. Scrambled egg, one small bit of tomato and I had to leave a good deal of the bacon because of fat. There were sausages but they are so full of fat it is not worth eating them. You would have to do 2 solid days of aerobics to work that off. I couldn’t eat the other fried junk on the plate.
4 x protein drinks. 1 x chicken, baked potato and vegetables.
Loads of water.
