I have not been a good boy ...

... but who is surprised? I just can’t quite lay off the sugar I guess. Well, I do try a different routine this time around: gradual reduction. What I have done over the past weeks is ignore my diet both in terms of quality, quantity and frequency. So I will try to implement a three step plan to get back onto the road of being healthy.

Step 1: Frequency My first action is to go back into the full-on omad dietary plan. I did allow myself breakfast and lunch for weeks now, and this needs to stop. So the first thing I do is to reduce the frequency of my meals back to one a day again. I have already started this and I am losing weight again. Once I stop losing weight just by eating only once a day, I will continue to

Step 2: Quality Here we meet the old foe, the nemesis, the ultimate evil: sugar. The white lord has taken his crown back, ruling over me more cruelly than ever. And now without the pathos: I eat and drink sugar again. Lots. And that needs to stop. So once I have reinstalled myself as a one-meal-a-day kind of person, and I have stopped losing weight from just that, I will kick the sugar habit again. Or try to, at least. Which means that for the time being, I do allow myself sugary drinks and food, so long as I only have them in the evening. Anyway, once I have kicked the sugar habit and stop losing weight again, I will move on to

Step 3: Quantity This I have not mentioned before, I don’t think, but it is an important part of my transformation nonetheless. Like so many people in the Western world, I am an overeater. Quite frankly, the amounts of food I consume are ridiculous. And I am often too weak to stop. When you get food in a restaurant, you are often faced with a plate filled to the brim, and we have learned to always consume it all and clean that plate. If I ever make it this far (meaning I have successfully killed breakfast and lunch and I have completely kicked the sugar), I will start working on smaller amounts of food per day. By which I mean: reduce portions to normal sizes instead of just eating everything within grasp.

Now, I realise there is a terrible discrepancy between my two main goals, which are to lose weight and to gain muscle, and I also realise that all the actions described above are very likely to reduce my weight, but will probably also halt my progress in the gym. I might therefore, in due time, change my diet again to complement muscle growth, and I am also considering a mixed diet of alternating between “mean and lean” phases, designating phases of reduced calorie intake for weight loss (lean phase) and increased calorie (and protein) intake for muscle gains (mean phase).

But first, let’s get rid of those extra pounds by exercising some discipline.
