Hey guys! Thank you so much for your help and advice!
I've taken some time to experiment now, and thought I'd do this one step at a time. I started eleven days ago at 68.4kg and two days ago I was down to 66.3. That's a 4.6lbs loss! I didn't think this stuff was gonna be so easy :D
What I have done so far is working as hard as ever with the weights, added a little bit of cardio after (tabata mostly) and a 16/8h split. I still eat pretty much the same stuff. So by reducing the time I eat I've lost 2.1kg. That says something about how much extra I used to eat before.
Now that I know that my body agrees with the 16/8h split, my next step is to improve the diet part. Eat BETTER, and a girl just can't get to much protein ;D
So far I just can't see anything negative about it. I have no hunger attacks or guilt about eating anything. This is awesome, because now I can skip breakfast and get straight to dinner (omglovesteak) :D I also drink a lot more water, which I was really bad with before. This is even more important now when summer's coming on and my epilepsy just don't like dehydration all that much.
I'm kinda scared to put up any weight goals, partly because I don't want the pressure, (with pressure comes difficulty) and also because I don't have that much to lose, everything that defines those super awesome muscles are just a bonus. I need to post a quad pic cause they look pretty good now :D
Thanks again guys! I really appreciate it, and I'll keep you posted :]
Ever since I first read this epic tweet I've been going up to the mirror with that exact phrase echoing in my head.. It's like you put everything I ever thought into words :D
FitJerk, I promise you that I will never ever be one of "them". EVAR. Here I've got a giant 2mx2m mirror in my hallway. Just outside the bathroom, so I'm always ready with the baby oil in the mornings.
The problem for me is that I live on the countryside and I don't have a driver's license (epilepsy), so to go to the second closest gym would mean an extra 30 mins there. By car. I really, really need to get that key.
And people need to work out with their shirts off too.
