3rd week anpb diet, no results

[audiophyle]

i'm 19, 230 lbs. I'm down 6 lbs in water weight since i've started (i lost the 6 lbs in about 2 days so it is water weight)
I'm following the diet exactly as it's laid out except i replaced the whey with plain skinless chicken 3 meals a day to cut down on costs. I used the anpb calculator to work out all the numbers and I split the calories evenly over 6 meals spaced 2-3 hours apart. My first refeed I waited 2 weeks. I shortened it to every 10 days after reading that 2 weeks was too long so my next refeed is tomorrow. I'm eating all my vitamins, drinking a gallon of water every day and training HST. I'm adding in some moderate intensity cardio 3 days a week to see if that helps out, but other than that, i dont know what i'm doing wrong. any ideas??

oh yeah, no sugar added in the peanut butter, its smuckers all natural, the only ingredients are peanuts and salt.

You ate nothing but nasty-ass natural peanut butter for 3 weeks for nothing?

May god have mercy on your soul.

no problem for me, i could eat peanut butter all day every day forever that's one of the reasons i chose the diet over a regular ckd.

try lowering the calories by a couple hundred if you are cutting....

do a refeed first then lower cals. Your leptin levels might be hurting, were you on a restricted calorie diet before starting this one?

Well, technically its not the ANPB diet if you're substituting chicken .

 

[ZKaudio]

yes it is. read up on the diet.

Nope I was bulking, around 4000 cals a day. What is leptin and why would it be low? thanks for your help btw

well today is the carb up, I'm carbing up with about 2-300 less calories than the calculator says. Than tomorrow I'm going to drop my calories by 200 and hopefully with the cardio that will get things moving.
