What diets are you all doing?
I'm doing the Dr. John McDougall Maximum Weight Loss Plan.
Here are the basic rules from his website
The only exception I am making is that I will eat the remaining servings of whole-wheat pasta that I batch cooked on Tuesday. The tomato sauce on that has some added oil.
- Start each meal with a soup and/or salad and/or fruit.
- Follow the 50/50 plate method for your meals, filling half your plate (by visual volume) with non-starchy vegetables and 50% (by visual volume) with minimally processed starches. Choose fruit for dessert.
- Greatly reduce or eliminate added sugars and added salts. This includes gourmet sugars and salts too. If either is troublesome for you, you can eliminate them.
- Eliminate all animal foods (dairy, meat, eggs, fish, seafood).
- Eliminate all higher fat plant foods (i.e., nuts, seeds, avocados, tofu, soy).
- Eliminate any added oil.
- Eliminate all higher calorie-dense foods including flour products (i.e. bread, bagels, muffins, crackers, dry cereals, cookies, cakes), puffed cereals, air-popped popcorn and dried fruit.
- Don’t drink your calories (especially from juices & sugar-sweetened beverages).
- Follow these principles, eating whenever you are hungry until you are comfortably full. Don’t starve yourself and don’t stuff yourself.
- Avoid being sedentary and aim for at least 30 minutes or more of moderate exercise daily (i.e., brisk walking).
@Fox Tips on training plan to make massive gains?
Lost 30 pounds during 75Hard. 10 pounds down more then going for the gainz.
Program changed my life. Super grateful.
You know 75 hard is scalable right?Although I am not ready for this challenge yet, I was seriously inspired by the previous thread.
I applied some of the principles from the 75 hard challenge from 1st of February, and I have now managed to go almost a month without sugar, fast food and alcohol, as well as drinking a lot of water each day. Have lost 6 kilos during the process and I feel so much better physically and mentally.
Keep in mind that I have not worked out at all (except from I walk around 5-8 kilometres a day). From next month I will try to add a daily workout to it as well.
I hope I am not sidetracking this thread. Just want to thank you for inspiring me, and I can only imagine how far you guys will get by doing this challenge. If I can feel like a new person with just applying SOME of the principles from the challenge, you guys will feel like superheroes. Huge respect to all of you, and I hope to do the 75 hard challenge later this year!

Agree 100%. I'm on day 40 officially (56 days technically, due to forgotten progress pic on day 16). I had to adjust my diet cause I'm losing too much weight. I have dropped nearly 10 lbs below my target weight. I'm 5'8" and with the added muscle I was targeting 160 to 165 lbs. At my peak I was an unfit 190 lbs.The other one is food. If it is high-quality stuff (which of course it should be) don't be afraid to eat a lot.
I am naturally skinny so during the last challenge I was eating 2,500 calories meal packets a day, plus smoothies and protein shakes, plus eggs and oatmeal for breakfast, and sometimes a whole extra dinner.
You want those calories.
You all are really going to make me listen to 20 hours of audio to find where he said you can't do back-to-back aren't you....
Actually I've been trying to find the source, but I did find this

Thanks for this. I was waiting for someone to justify why separate workouts are "harder" than B2B.The point about having two separate workouts is that it forces you to:
1. make a little time management commitment multiple times per day where you say:
I've gotta do it today when can I do it?
2. arrange things that might come up in your life to still fulfill those commitments no matter what. You are learning that squeeze these two workouts in even if one workout is more convenient. Convenient isn't in the game plan of business or a committed person's life. You have to get it done because you made a commitment to the process. Two workouts, not one, is the process. This is supposed to make your life harder not just be a workout.
Who's to say what's convenient or not? In some situations two 45 minute workouts B2B might be less convenient than splitting them. Now, if you are deliberately going B2B to make it easier on yourself, then clearly you aren't getting the spirit of the program and likely won't get the full benefit. As long as you are consistently making yourself uncomfortable, then I don't see a problem with it.
