The eleventh week of my 16-week challenge to drop from ~20% to 10% body fat has been one of slow progress.
I haven’t changed anything from last week; I still have 3-4 lean days of about 1000kcal input, with three meals a day (protein shake + one piece of fruit).
At this rate, I won’t make this goal, but I’m planning something more radical for the last three weeks. For now, I will keep the same system on weeks 12 and 13.
I did 3 out of 4 lean days, and maintained my caloric balance the rest of the days except Tuesday.
Ongoing summary:
- Week 1: 0/2 lean days, 0/5 maintenance days. 76.7kg -> 76.2kg (-0.5) 93.7 -> 92.5cm (-1.2).
- Week 2: 1/2 lean days, 2/5 maintenance days. 76.2kg -> 75.6kg (-0.6) 92.5cm -> 93.1cm (+0.6)
