Yesterday was a pretty good day - I hit my protein macro, and only went a little high on fat and carbs. My deficit was very solid, and thus, I lost weight - and waist! My waistline is down a small but measurable bit. I honestly don't care about the weight at all - what I really want is to get rid of the fat, drop that waistline down, and maybe reveal an ab or two.

To that end, I've been reading a lot. There is a lot of crap out there. Half of the crap looks like solid info, but doesn't stand up to scrutiny. You can waste a lot of time scrutinizing :). During this period of exploration and examination, I found myself reading a lot about lifting weights, intermittent fasting, and a guy by the name of Martin Berkhan. Kingkeld mentioned him a time or two, I think, and I'd heard his name dropped by some other people I respect. So when I realized that a simplified weight-training program I was reading about was his (at least, it was his article), I started to think that maybe I had stumbled out of the desert of misinformation into an oasis of practical, usable knowledge. Berkhan is blunt and profane, but smart and knowledgeable, and doesn't seem to have any hidden agenda behind his info. He's not selling a fad diet or an Ab-Crunchinator, that's for sure! I really liked his simple approach to building muscle, and that piqued my interest in his LeanGains IF program.

I have had success with my LGLCHF approach so far, and I'm not going to change now. But I do think the success is more due to my increased focus on getting a decent deficit than the high-fat/low-carb angle. I might be able to incorporate IF without changing LGLCHF appreciably, but I'm not in any rush to do that as I need to read up on how to do it. Also... Ultimately I am about results, and since my current approach has been successful, it's earned another couple weeks. There's no need to change anything up right now. Maybe in a couple weeks, I will have read enough about IF and Berkhan's LeanGains program to figure out how to incorporate its tenets into my own program, but until then, I'll stand pat. And continue to lose :).

Anyway, enough navel-gazing.
