Like I said, designed to cut fat and hopefully look like she-hulk in several weeks I'm sure he would have put in more carbs in the diet if my day job involved more moving around than sitting at a computer for the majority of the day.

well if you wanna be a shehulk you better do lots of heavy training, just diet won't help haha.

 

[Quark]

All vague if you ask me.

Yeah that's true, but a change in diet will certainly help a lot. I have this horribly bad habit of binge eating throughout the weekend (for no reason other than "yay it's the weekend") and undoing every bit of hard work I did during the week, so I've practically lost nothing overall since my last trip. I've definitely gotten way stronger though which is nice, but yeah I got stuck/bored doing the same machines all the time.

tl;dr - Paying this guy a bunch of money and he will be checking so I'd better do what he says

I'm having troubles controlling myself in the weekend as well
and yeah, a good diet helps a lot.
I've actually gained 5 pound since I started to work out, but that's all muscle.
no idea about loosing fat though.

I gave up diet´s. They made me bigger not tall.

a diet that would make you tall after puberty would have to be a weird hormone diet...

 

[Koldawne]

OH...with stevia...

Not for me. I won't get anywhere near anything that isn't 'sugar'. Aspartame, stevia, nutri-sweet, sorbitol, HFCS.. all shite afaic.

We'll see if it helps.

Though I think I won't be seeing you this year. Or will I?

I only see Koldawne for sure, and AP and Zombi for sure.

 

[Koldawne]

It's an interesting question, isn't it?

I suppose IT folks tend to be among "the weird kids" - the same demographic also contains of a lot of metalheads. Joe Average and metal don't go that well together.

Yep! Most of the IT folks I know (me included) wouldn't be described as 'average'

So I don't need to take a wind shield for you to Dong!? You won't be blown away!

 

[Koldawne]

About to embark on a new diet plan drafted by one of the trainers at the gym. It looks a little bit scary - would someone please figuratively hold my hand for me?

Please tell me this trainer is a registered dietitian? or at least that they took into consideration your height, weight, sex, age and activity level when they figured it out... Sorry, I have seen too many people put on huge deficits with a million restrictions for no reason and with no training on the subject either.

 

[Koldawne]

ah, it was the same here, I never thought I could be a vegetarian, and than I just became one

I like meat.. and PIE!

 

[cetta]

Just got my diet plan from my trainer. All I can say right now is "crap that's terrifying "

It's gonna be hard at the beginning! It's always like that... but don't make the negative side overpower your target!!

this is karma, man!
I grew a beard for saying that!

 

[Koldawne]

There are two pie charts - one says carbs20%/fat31%/protein49%, the other says carbs25%/fat16%/protein59% and I can't remember what they were for exactly.

Needless to say it's not a diet I'd like to follow for too long. Just thinking about all that chicken and eggs is giving me a headache

No way in hell you need that much protein. A good guideline if you are trying to conserve your muscle mass is 1g / lb of lean body mass. I'm on 45% Carb/ 30% Protein/25% Fat. I've also lost 55 lbs in 8 months doing this without some silly diet that tells me not to eat a certain type of food. Sounds like they have you on some modified version of the Atkins diet which is not healthy or sustainable.
