Meals and today's workout look like this:

6:30am - 35 mins cardio

7am - 2 egg beaters 3 pieces turkey bacon, 1/4 cup low fat cheddar
12pm - 6oz flank steak, 2 cups green beans
3pm - 1 cup cottage cheese, 2tbsp natural peanut butter
6pm - 2 scoops ON Pro Complex
8pm - 6oz flank steak, spinach salad

That'll give me right at 1700 or so calories, 200gr of protein, and only 38gr net carbs for the day. 50/40/10 ratio protein/fat/carbs.

I'm about to wrap up and will go to maintenance as I'm right on top of my goal. I know Hrpii doesn't put any weight on those BF monitors, but that's all I really have to go on. I was 154lbs this morning and 7.2% BF according to the little gizmo. Once it hits 6.x% I'll switch to maintenance and just try to stay there and likely pulse carbs throughout the summer. My main concern was losing strength, and I'm happy to say that's stayed pretty constant, or even gone up a bit. Stamina is down but I can still bench 225 without too much trouble, so like I said early on with CFD I've found a method that seems to work great for me.

I'll continue to post updates until I hit that 6.x% number, after that I'll just encourage everyone else to hit their personal goals.
