"Good luck. I would rather do carb loading, when you don't train eat less calories then when you train eat more On daily basis." I was thinking of intermittant fasting... Training in the morning so burning fat then only eating within a set window say 2pm till 8pm. Need to check my macros but looking at around 2800 calories a day. Ive not done carb cycling before, do you find it works well? | |||

"So what's the plan to make the transformation... Also..if your pictures are anything to go by, you've got a pretty advantageous starting position compared to many, I'd imagine..." My only plan so far is to start training again as havnt been in a gym since the start of the year as I hurt my back. Ive been very fortunate I havnt gained or lost much weight since then so you could say I was in a better position than some | |||

Seems to be working so far, im 4lbs down this week!! | |||

So needed to change it up a bit and get back on track. Hoping to shift another 10lb by mid September then I'll be back at the gym and I'll go back to what I was doing before which is not eating till after my workout around lunchtime. | |||

"Starving yourself......way to go! " It's not starving yourself. You just eat the amount of calories within a shorter space of time. For example between 12 and 6. Then don't eat again till 12 the next day. | |||

Yes I found that carb loading works good cos it wont allow your body to get used to the same amount of carbs u know, its called nutrition memory, that fasting you do sounds good as well and yes have mostly it all around ur workouts and morning. | |||

"I want to get myself fit, the only problem is I can't get motivated to do it, you see my problem is that I'm very happy with myself as a person, and deep down I don't feel like I need to change anything, so I just use the time I would use to go to the gym, to do other things, once I get started I'll be fine, it's just my self confidence is a barrier to getting started, funny how things turn out isn't it " Im the same, im not the most confident of people believe it or not. Once you get over the first hurdle of getting started you'll be amazed how quickly your confidence will grow | |||

"I joined a new gym today after being off injured for a few months. I joined up for 6 weeks to see how I like it there so ive decided to see how ripped I can get within those 6 weeks - I know about training and dieting and before anyone says anything to the contrary, people can make dramatic transformations within the same time frame. So here goes project "from shit to fit"" Go for it | |||

"If someone's just losing weight, it's worth paying attention to your basal metabolic rate, which will likely decrease, as the weight falls away. To the op - I think you'll do well in 6 weeks, if your photos are you currently. It will be great to see the results afterwards. I like high intensity interval training, which raises your metabolism for hours after your session finishes, thus burning off more calories than a standard routine. But I'm no body builder etc, I just love being fit." The only cardio ive ever done is walking to the gym and back believe it or not. Im certainly no body builder either I just want to look good in a pair of shorts. Ill make sure I take an after photo or two for you | |||

I find the principles really easy to follow and works brilliantly for me" I like IF, takes a few days to get used to having your first meal that late in the day, but after the first 3 days it's easy, just make sure you hit your macros in the evening. I find I have more energy and and get less headaches eating like this, plus you can change ur calories intake on training days to get better results. It's been proven to help increase insulin sensitivity, with a bit of hiit your on to a winner | |||

The more meals is because it would be near on impossible to hit ur macros of protein if u say needed 250g a day due to the body only being able to digest around 40-50 grams in on sitting! therefore obv needing more meals to hit the number required! if u can hit ur macros in 3 meals then happy days! | |||

That's right. I usually go for 230g protein aday, yeah eating 70g protein and 1000kcal 3 times is a lot easier. | |||
