Try it... have 3/4 scrambled eggs/poached eggs and 3/4 grilled/George foreman minute steaks in the morning... by lunch time you’ll be starving (enough that you’ll devour yesterday’s left overs or a chicken salad even tho you’d prefer a chicken roll) then come dinner time have some carbs if energy is low but just a hand full literally... coupled with lots of water and evening snacks of nuts, fruit or zero fat yougurt and you’ll see the weight fall off. I don’t notice the change in energy with no carbs I just eat more veg to fill me up

Tbh ive always had a fairly bad diet such as fizzy drinks and fast food , So my plan is to start cutting down on all that stuff with the plan to cut it out completely (bar a cheat day here and there). My big thing is i never eat breakfast so id just wait till lunch to get food which always means i end up over eating because im so hungry. I totally understand what MNG is on about with the late night hunger and its the very same with me being the toughest part of the day where i start to get hungry and im like oh will i run up to the shop and get crisps/junk food or order a late night pizza/chinese (which i have done one to many times ha) Also the fact my parents own a restaurant and i end up going up there for food at lunch its so hard not to pick at the bad food :pac::pac::pac:. At least when i start my new job at the end of the month i will be more regimented etc. Even tomorrow i plan on doing a weekly shop for myself so ill have proper food for the week which will hopefully help me cut down on late night binges etc

Very rarely eat dinners early in the day unless I'm out for it I've started taking vitamin supplements and have a whey protein shake after my workouts. There Prob contributing feck all to my body and are all gimmicks but the barocca boost things are quite good adding a bit of caffeine if I need it
For people who are just starting to train, I don't recommend supplements. I think it is important to get as much out of your body, on its own, before trying anything. I was training about 12 - 15 years before taking my first supplement. This is of course excessive but if you get everything out of your body that you can first, you will then be better able to judge what the supplements are actually doing for you. It is also along this same vain, why I suggest only taking 1 supplement at a time. If you take more than one, who is to say which is working for you, all bodies react differently.
Diet I don't have a very complex diet. A diet to me isn't something you are on, or off, it's simply your eating habits. I don't keep track of the amount of fat, protein, or carbohydrates that I eat. My only rule of thumb is, avoid processed foods and eat as many whole natural foods as I can. I don't eat anything that is low fat, low carb, etc. because they replace the fat with sugar and calories with other artificial chemicals I don't want to consume. I try to eat things that are grown or raised. Fruits, vegetables, meats/fish, and grains. Grains being the smallest portion of those if I can. I keep my deserts and junk food to a minimum, but believe that now that I'm off the road, treats are fine as long as kept in moderation.
