ive managed to cut down to 2 cups of milk for breakfast. snack on a

authentic german sausage in the afternoon with a little butterfat added.

( this sausage is pork/pork fat and some spicy spices like paprika ) no

fillers, preserves ect.

and really fill up as much as i can at dinner.

this is interesting in regards to hormones.

i read that scertain hormones being out of blaance is what can casue

receeding/baldness.

( my hair is real fine and is receeding from front )

wonder if there is any hope to halt the process

thansk for the update mate.

my physio is motoring along so hoping to start resume very light trainign

within 6-8 weeks if all still progresses to plan

then i can really throw myself at WD once i get strength/stability back

Hi ,

My main obstacle to the WD is working nights. Generally my Warrior Meal on

nights I work will be a meal before I leave, then a half hour of work, then

a

meal at work, then 5 hours or so, then more food when I get home. On days I

don't work I eat the meal as a solid block.

I've been using celery sticks, coconut oil, raw ACV in water, and coffee

during the undereating phase.

I haven't been to the doctor lately, so am not sure how much I weigh. My

crappy bathroom scale says I weigh 157, in which case I've definitely been

gaining muscle, but I don't consider it reliable.

I'm certainly making strength gains. Over the last two months, I increased

my 1-rep max on the bench press from 175 to 210. I'm doing weighted dips, 3

sets of five, with 40 pounds last time, and am increasing 2.5 pounds per

week

with no problem. I'm doing the same for pullups, but only used 10 pounds of

weight last. I'm doing arm curls with 55 lb dumbells now, and am increasing

5

pounds each (10 pounds total) every 3 weeks. I do them once a week, and

increase like this: 3 sets of 1 with 50 lbs, 3 sets of 2 with 50 lbs, 3 sets

of 3

with 50 lbs, 3 sets of 1 with 55 lbs, 3 sets of 2 with 55 lbs, and next week

I'll

do 3 sets of 3 with 55 lb, then move to 60 lbs. I've given deadlifting a

break to focus on the squat for a month, since my squatting has been moving

much

more slowly. I did 3 sets of 3 with 220 last. I'm doing them twice a week.

On Saturdays I do heavier weight with normal stance; on Tuesdays I do 10 lbs

less with a very wide stance and go very deep. Each week I up it 5 pounds.

It occurred to me that coconut oil would be good for the undereating phase,

since it needs little digestion and doesn't disturb insulin levels, from

what I

understand.

I've lost some fat I think, as I have a better six pack now, though I think

that's because I'm doing more cardio. (and some ab exercises). Cardio is a

great addition to the undereating phase, as it seems to help a lot with

keeping

hormones in order and controlling hunger.
