cheese and sugar burger adam............





LOVE YOU #CLEANDEZDOUCHEMAGOOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
 
So i was a bit dreading this weekend heading to the desert with friends, as we always eat a ton of shitty food. But i feel somewhat accomplished. Salad and steak friday night, saturday night burger patties without buns, and just eggs and some bacon for breakfast. No energy drinks or soda. did have a smore though... oops.

Going into the week feeling pretty good right now. Salad and chicken for lunch.

a Smore here and there, or a candy bar, or whatever it is......... is not going to kill you. especially if it's not in your regular routine diet.
hardest part is just getting your normal routine down.

keep it up CleanDezDoucheMagoosh!!!!!!!!!!
LOVE YAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!

Sounded like a good meal so I'm going to try it.

Edit: A little too salty but I can lower the amount of dressing next time. Besides that ,it tastes great. Would recommend.
Agreed, its a bit on the salty side. In the beginning I was using all of the dressing, but after a while I cut it back to about 2/3 of the packet. I also found that I preferred certain brand/stores caesar salad kits more than others. I didnt care for the brand they sold at my local stater bros or costco, but I really liked the one they sold at walmart.

Adam, I would also get the rotisserie chickens from costco, take them home and shred them up. You can make meals for DAYS using that stuff. I ate a FUCK TON of chicken and rice/veggies that way. I'd also like to add that Im a lazy robot and would/can/do make a ton of food at once, and eat it for the rest of the week. Im talking lunch and dinner every day for 4 days, and then do it all over again the following week.
The biggest thing that helped me was eating better (yet nowhere near perfect) and becoming active. Once I was in (or close to) a calorie deficit, the weight came off easy and I wouldnt feel guilty about going to Texas roadhouse and trying to put them out of business by eating all of their rolls on the weekend.

That is pretty much what i am doing now... Got a rotisserie chicken sunday and had it for dinner, and lunch. Its super easy and doesnt involve me having to cook as much. Just hope i can stick with this for months.
 
I too, have one or 2 days each week that i cook for 3-4 hours. if i have some time throughout any day, ill prep stuff here and there. but most everything is in one day. then im good for maybe a week. hah

its on repeat in my calendar, and now in my brain. hah

i swear, if i just stuck to ONLY whats on my meal plan that my nutritionist made me a year or so ago, and didn't eat anything else what so ever..... with how much i work out and shit.... i'd be fucking ripped. hah

my problem is, since im ALWAYS working out in one way or another, i'm ALWAYS hungry and eating little snacks here and there.
fuckmylife.


coolstorybro, i know, i know. back to CleanDezDoucheMagoosh and his cheeseburger Adam self...............
fucking Leehey
 
do you guys use any apps to track your food/diets?
Also where is best place to see what food are good/bad to eat?

I keep hearing the Keto diet is way to go... but then see that you shouldnt eat apples and bananas, which i always thought were good.
Unless you 100% commit to Keto it won’t do you any benefit. Once you get some carbs in your system your body pops out of a ketogenic state.

I agree. I switched to ketogenic diet a few years back because of peer pressure from Elliott and Jesse.

And it's the best I've ever felt. But, like mentioned above, you have to be very strict, very very limited cheat meals so you doint throw yourself out of ketosis.

Personally, I been so busy with family stuff, the last year or so, that I stopped exercising entirely. My sleep schedule has gone to shit (two month old baby at home), and I've been cheating on my diet way more than I care to admit. Lately I have been working on getting my diet back on track and hopefully my sleep schedule improves as the baby sleeps longer.

Life ebbs and flows, but that's no excuse to feel hopeless. I think the take away here, is whatever you decide to do, just do it consistently.
 
my cheap ass broke down and bought the keto app so i can track shit... Will be good to learn what everything adds up to so i can estimate it all in the future. Need to do more measuring servings.. Today i made salad, but adding it to the app i have no idea the weight of the olives i put in. lol

I have been getting a bit bored with food so i need to research more recipes. Right now i feel like i am eating alot of eggs because they are easy.

EGGS ARE GREAT! keep eating them!
 
I’m 6’2” and used to weigh 270 lbs about 20 years ago, never having seen the inside of a gym. I was a fat fuck to my core, eating out sometimes twice a day (so I was also broke). When I decided to get my shit together, I started eating those lean frozen meals full of bullshit, but low on calories and started using a Bowflex. I dropped down to 230ish fairly quick and floated around 220 lbs for many years. I started regularly hitting the gym in 2013, even if I didn’t know what I was doing for a few more years.

In January 2020 I was 223 lbs and decided I was sick of it, so I started intermittent fasting. I dropped 14 lbs. by the end of February, with my ultimate goal of getting to 190 lbs. I did intermittent fasting for about two years (got down to 191 lbs) when I decided to lift more seriously and thought it was holding me back. I’m now fairly serious about lifting, so me watching the scale hasn’t been critical. Given my current muscle mass, I’d guess at 185 lbs I would be shredded. I’m currently sitting at 205 lbs.

I mention all of this, as you’re on a long journey. In the beginning you’ll shed weight with even the simplest of changes. Eventually that’ll stop and you’ll have to make harder choices. Going against everyone else, I’d say weigh yourself often in the beginning. Seeing the scale come down will help your motivation. Try every morning after a pee and then average the weight at the end of the week. That’ll help offset some bad days and not have you waiting a whole week to figure out that you’re fucking up. Once you get down to a weight and have your nutrition and exercise fairly consistent, move to a weekly weigh in. Beyond this, take pictures as often as possible. I have exactly zero topless photo from my fat fuck days, but I now wish I had many.

Today I practice what I call damage control. I eat as well as I can when I can, not beating myself up so much when I stray, though overall I’m still roughly an 80% clean eater. I’m pretty solid with breakfast (save the weekends as I make pancakes or waffles for the family) and lunch, but dinners can sometimes stray. I also enjoy beer, but mainly stick to weekends for drinking. If you enjoy drinking, hold yourself accountable for exercise, e.g. I hit the gym 5 days this week, which earned me 5 drinks this weekend.

Everyone will have a different approach. 20 years ago I literally looked at my self, naked, in the mirror and said out loud “I wouldn’t fuck me” (think of it as my Silence of the Lambs moment, though I rarely skin ladies and tuck my dick these days). That lead to a hard change in me and my take today is still to never be satisfied with my progress. I forever want to look how I do after a workout. For functional strength, my goal has been to be able to put my daughter on my shoulders when she graduates from high school, so when I’m 49. Now I use the same goal with my son, who will likely be a 200 lb dude and I’ll be 56. Tough shit, it’ll keep me pushing hard.

For nutrition, I recommend a food scale and instapot. Without either of these, I’d be a failure, though over the years I’m pretty in tune with calories and food.

Here is my go-to chicken recipe:
900-1000g chicken breast
1 tsp each cumin, salt, pepper, garlic powder
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 cup salsa
1/2 cup vinegar

Mix together in instapot, cook on high for 20 mins, let naturally release. The chicken is then shreddable with tongs. Yields 4 lunches at 280 g each of cooked chicken breast. I eat this most days during the week.

My morning shake is as follows:
8 oz. water
1 scoop greens or fruits for vitamins
10 g cacao nibs, unsweetened
50 g raw whey
5 g creatine
32 g peanut butter
70 g frozen blueberries
70 g frozen strawberries
~100 g banana (1 banana, regardless of girth)

I just pulled the trigger and ordered an instapot after reading this. I've been looking into them for a long time, and typically throw meat in the slowcooker before leaving for work in the morning. But this would be easier for meal prepping after work if I've forgotten to set up the slow cooker.

Instapots are awesome. Theyre good in the desert too, can throw some stuff in there for a dinner and leave it.

Instapot is like a slow cooker on steroids, they have a ton of features.
