My 3 Day Diets

At the moment I’m on two types of diet, one were I eat fairly healthy and try to stick to my diet plan the best that I can and the other one which I call  my weekend 3 day diets. I’m certain there’s a lot of people out there who can relate to what I’m saying you eat fantastically all week, but on Friday, Saturday and Sunday your dieting go’s totally out of the window. The biggest reason for me being bad over the weekend is probably my social life and not being at work. When I’m at work I usually prepare all my food the night before. So I eat what I prepare which is usually good healthy food rich in protein, complex carbohydrates and low in fat.

Its Saturday today and I’m off in to Liverpool with the better half for drinks and a meal. When I go into Liverpool I always get myself a mixed grill from the same restaurant. This meal is calorie laden but the good thing about it is, its very high in protein which will help with my lean muscle mass growth. At the moment as well I’m loving Koppaberg fruit cider, it’s delicious and comes in many different flavors, my favorites are mixed summer fruits and cherry. They come in half litre bottles which again means they are laden in calories.

My weekend 3 day diet plan is doing my fat loss progress no good at all, but my life is going out and enjoying myself and a large amount of time this means going out eating delicious food and drinking lots and lots of alcoholic beverages. I know what I need to do to reduce my body fat percentage and I still firmly believe I will get to my body fat target of 10% before the end of the year. Will I succeed doing what I’ve been doing over the last few weeks , not a chance.

I know that I need to make sacrifices and maybe drink and eat less but these are pleasures in my life that I enjoy take them away and what am I left with. On the other hand though, since I have lost the 30 pounds plus this year my life has improved dramatically and I am enjoying going out meeting people again. Something that I absolutely dreaded at the start of the year. It’s all about finding that middle road, one were you can still enjoy yourself but still succeed with your weight and fat loss goals.
