No change for a week

Submitted by thefatman on Wed, 05/12/2010 - 14:36

There is no denying now. It seems I have hit a platou. The bad news is, I did not lose any weight for a week. The good news is, I did not gain any weight for a week.

So I'm stuck.

The solution, per Dr. Gatza is to change something, like eat less carbs.
Obviously I will see what can I do.

My daily calorie intake is still around 1500 Cals per day.
I still have some slight heart burn here and there but not as bad as before.

Some pain and suffering

Submitted by thefatman on Sat, 05/08/2010 - 19:17

I have hurt myself wednesday on the bench press. I was on a divided bench, and the bottom of my spine went into the hole, while arching to push up the weight. Stupid thing to do. It hurt so much, that I had to skip Fridays training.

Then on top of this I have stepped into my twizers and made a deep gash on the bottom of my rigth feet. So now I can't sit, and have a hard time walking. Arghhh...

We are getting creative with the food I can eat.

Submitted by thefatman on Thu, 04/29/2010 - 14:06

I have run out of TotalShake 1. This means that only regular food for me from now on. If you can call it regular...

After some food testing Dr. Gatza concluded that the following food types are bad for me:

10002 - Healing a bad bruise

Submitted by thefatman on Sun, 04/25/2010 - 15:15

Something happened to me, that I thought would never ever happen.

Don't laugh, but I fell out of the bathtub.

I never understood that if someone was taking care, how can they fell out of a bathtub taking a shower. Now I know. Or to be more precise, I still do not know how, but I have the proof that it can happen to anyone.

I've broken my 10lbs barrier

Submitted by thefatman on Sun, 04/25/2010 - 04:07

I've broken my 10lbs barrier.

Today, at weigh-in, I was 336lbs. That is an 11lbs decrease from the 347 starting point.

The diet plan have changed slightly again. Now I can have 3 "chicken meals" with up to 5 shakes, but I almost never take all 8 meals a day, so most likely I will have only 3 shakes a day.

Beside the slight diarrhea and an ever decreasing heartburn, there is not much else to report on this front.

Initial reaction to total shake

Submitted by thefatman on Fri, 04/16/2010 - 00:13

What is Total Shake?

Total Shake is a liver cleansing and body nutrition formula that cleanses the liver and through that the body, without the "roto-router effect" that some intestinal cleansing systems use to "rip" toxins out of your intestines.

To quote the man behind the Total shake:

Getting started - all over again

Submitted by thefatman on Mon, 04/12/2010 - 15:26

The last few months I have put on some upper body muscle, but my knee injury seriously preventing me from any lover body excercise.

I have my usual aches, but my bigger concern is that I still do not seem to lose any weight despite the training and hard work I put in with the help of my friendm and trainer, Iain.

He is the one who, came up with a new idea. We will be testing a different system, to see if we can boost my metabolism.
