Pintoca's 6 months Cutting Results...

pintoca · Mar 11, 2005

Well,

After sadly having to change my diet (as discussed in this thread) http://www.elitefitness.com/forum/showthread.php?t=378315

I now have the results to prove that it is never a good idea to FIX WHAT IS NOT BROKEN!!!

Just to refresh your minds:

My initial stats, as of 13.09.04 were:

264 lbs
40% Body Fat (DAYUMMM)

158,4 lbs LBM
105,6 lbs FAT

After 6 months I am at:

207,7
25,1% BF

155,57 lbs LBM
52,13 lbs FAT

So results after 6 months of straight cutting are

56,3 lbs lighter (about 53,5 lbs FAT and 2,8 lbs LBM)

As usual, you can find the graph of this here:

I am bitching because until now I was pulling a very straight 10 lbs a month... not 6 lbs a month damn it!!

The good part of the history is that I've managed to keep my Fat to LBM loss ratio to 80+%

So, in light of this development, I have decided to start with my planned CTS diet RIGHT AWAY (well, not next week but in 10 days, since I am going to the CeBit the whole next week, damn that too). This is the only way I can start the CTS on April 1st @ 200 lbs, 22% BF (which is where I want to be by that time)

Anybody interested in the CTS diet I posted earlier, it's here http://www.elitefitness.com/forum/showthread.php?t=381640

Before I forget, this is an update to my monthly cutting log http://www.elitefitness.com/forum/showthread.php?t=375450

Hey maing, you may not have lost 10lbs a month, but you still lost a lot, which is very commendable - shit, it's awesome! plus you have learned something that works and doesn't work for you, which is INVALUABLE.

I have to agree on the learning part... Now I know that for me the way to go is cardiothon... The new program I will start will basically take this premise to the limit... Let's see how it goes in a month... (It might backfire and burn a hell of a lot of LBM, by which time I would have learned a new thing also!!!).

I just can't believe I had it 100% right the first time over... Tweaking is a pest!!!

The bitchin came when I realized this month was even worse than the infamous mid-dec mid-Jan period (which was jam-packed with goodies and dinners and sweets and all that is good stuff!!!).... Funny, December was my second best month: An indication it might be a good idea to eat more???

This is the real value in such a graph, to go back and disect what you did...

Pint -- I'm sorry but I think your progress is AWESOME!!

Learning what works for you & doesn't is invaluable -- something that will keep you on track for the rest of your life!! Down to 25% bf from 40%?? Wow!!

Good job!!

mm107 · Mar 11, 2005

Ya pintoca you might not realise it but your progress was amazing. Now i bet you it may slow down but i bet you wont let yourself fail and you will soon be in the single digit BF% and your goals will be met!
Goodluck@!

I dont know what your complaining about your cruising Bro, Its happening for you and I dont think you could expect any more. I still think 6lbs per month is excellent. Keep it up.

pintoca · Mar 11, 2005

new pics are coming together with the CTS.... 1 month old pics are already here:

http://www.ccfiles.de/pintoca_5months_before_after_feb2005.jpg

As you can see, Before: VERY big bunny... Now, not so big bunny, but still lots of room for improvement.. (we'll get there, and still before winter this year)

About the bitching, been thinking about it and it seems I don't really have a bitchin right... it's just you get used to your body responding to training in one way... Hey, I don't like my cheese moved either, so shoot me!!!

Thanks for all the support guys. This is what this site is all about!!!

That's a TON of weight bro, nothing to be dissapointed with there. Your attitude is perfect though, perfection comes when you are never satisfied!
