Crisis over, went on a bit of a coke/speed bender last night and dropped 3.4kg from Friday. I know it's not ideal but it will be interesting to see where my weight levels out at during the week.

I'm just waiting for it on biggest looser. Lines of coke between treadmill runs.
Sustainable over the long term too. I ran it exclusively for close to 5 years.
For what it's worth I still hit my macros on Saturday and Sunday. Went to the gym on Sunday too, my heart rate was through the roof
Don't plan on making a habit out of it regardless.
How does everyone go with their sleeping patterns while IF? I find 6 hours is usually more than enough, try to stretch it out to 8 where I can.

Been on the IF plan for about 3 months. I try to go 300cal under maintenance on training days and 500cal under on days off.
Seem to have hit a plateau at 88.4 kg .... Any suggestions?
I'm 38 (for a few more days anyway!) and I'm 182.5cm tall.
I've given myself a realistic goal of improving my body shape within 3 years but turning the gut into abs is harder than I expected. Again and suggestions would be welcome

What's your average calorie count over a week?

If you are weighing everything and have been dieting for a while 2 week diet break at maintenance.
I hit a plateau after losing 8kgs using IF, since then I've ended dropping my calories on rest days down to 1000 below maintenance (1600 cals low carb) and keeping calories at maintenance on workout days (2600 cals high carb). Ends up being the same number of calories consumed across the week but a higher carb intake which keeps leptin high and (for me at least) has facilitated continued fat loss.

Cheers fellas and yeah I have been counting calories for a while so i think a break is in order. My weekly calorie intake is about 12,000 nazzy ... Why do you ask?
Thanks guys. I know it might seem like its a late start to get into BB at 39 but I just love the chanllenge of pushing limits. I used to do it when i was younger with triathalon so i have a good work ethic so all your advise is greatly appreciated.
