I don't use the word diet, I call it a permanent lifestyle change. Soon to be 60, ride 3 days a week (3 -4hrs each ride), do weights, punching/kicking bag during the winter and eat my fair share of fruits, veggies, protein, and dark chocolate. All day water, green matcha tea daily with my shakes. Should I keep going? 130 lbs and never been as fit. Don't want to bore anyone anymore so I'll leave it at that.

Eat/drink: Meat (everything that came from a mother), (whole) eggs, butter, bacon, fatty cheeses, water, red wine. Eat when hungry, to satiety.
Eliminate: carbs, grains (wheat, pasta, pastry), plants (fruits, vegetables), seeds, vegetable/seed oils, processed crap.
Have been doing this for almost a year. Look and feel like Superman with only 30min (bodyweight + high-intensity interval) training a week. "After" results match this guy's (read his story):

Great book referencing tons of studies:

Google "zero carb".

So you're basically on a ketogenic diet?
I've heard Dominic D'Agostino speak about this diet and I've read about it but I'm not convinced this diet is good for you long term....especially eliminating fruits and veggies. Dark veggies like kale and spinach will give your body far more nutrients than any meat.
I have been very fit, athletic and healthy my entire life and I recently changed to more of a pescatarian diet. Its working very well....feel great but I still enjoy a nice filet once in a while.

I use to test my bodies ability to take a beating regularly. Bad food, alcohol, candy, no exercise. Then i turned 40 12 months ago and changed my lifestyle.
No booze, no bread, no sugar drinks, working out regularly at orange theory fitness. Im 40lbs lighter and feel great.
Now put a skillet brownie desert with vanilla ice cream in front of me and I’m 39 again!

1. carrots. nibbleon them. keep bags of those chunky baby carrots in the frig. hungry? eating desire? eat those. super low cal, incredibly good for your stomach and digestion. makes your hands orange
2. cut 15% off your plate. whatever you order, whatever is delivered, immediately take 15% off your plate and toss it, put back in the fridge. that 15% alone is all you need and you wont miss it. if its on the plate, its getting eaten. i rarely leave anything on a plate and truth be told am not, if not in public, adverse to licking the plate clean<G>

What to eat is simple. Avoid processed foods. Effectively, avoid Omega 6's. It's that simple. Processed foods inflame the cardiovascular system. Analogous to scrubbing a toothbrush on your arm hour after hour day after day. When your cardiovascular system is inflamed, saturated fats and cholesterol stick to lining of your arteries. All these fad diets, vegan, ketogenic, blah blah blah, are all garbage. Cholesterol and saturated fats are only harmful if your cardiovascular system is inflamed. Then they stick. The human body was never designed to consume processed foods. That simple. A 30 year cardiovascular surgeon wrote an excellent article on this topic. Ever since i read it, I'm living proof it's true. My blood pressure is down, my blood work numbers are better than ever. And I am eating red meat and dairy galore. Feel like I'm 25 again.

I thinking restricting calories doesn't work longer term as your basil metabolism will slow down to compensate for the lower calorie level. I've lost about 30lbs since the middle of June by doing zero exercise (mainly because I've been so busy with my 2 jobs). I basically cut out 70-80% of carbs out of my diet, especially liquid sugar (vitamin water, gatorade, or anything sweet) and combo that with intermittent fasting where I only eat 1 or 2 times a day within a 1-4 hour period and stay away from highly processed foods. I not hungry at all and have done a few 3-4 day fasts without much hunger. No sweets and have had alcohol a few times since June. If I beat twice a day then I'll start out with 3 eggs with bacon along with a little hash brown then for my second meal I'll have some protein (meat, chicken, or fish) along with some salad then throw in some nuts along with some fruit. The only thing that I basically drink now is water, mineral water, and plain iced tea. If I exercised at all (which I'm planning to do), my weight loss and getting more toned would be even more amplified. The times where I eat once a day I have a big meal...something like Korean BBQ or In'N'Out protein style burger with fries and then some chicken later. My sweet treats are fruit and 75-80% dark chocolate with almonds. I can't image drinking anything sweet now because it'd taste like syrup to me now.
great job Martin!
Now have your lap times improved?
