Will do HafPaf 

are you trying to loose some fat or are you body building  

Jessica I've focused on fat loss and dropped over 35kg without much training at gym. Now I'm working out at gym to force my body to use up more calories. I can't really do proper body building because the eating required for fat loss and for muscle building are very different from each other. I have to stay in a calorie deficit to lose bodyfat and increasing my gym workout intensity will help me to break down more bodyfat. There will be some muscle growth but it won't be optimum growth that can be achieved by eating at excess calories and high protein daily. 

I can help you with a few stuff that can help you if you want to. I'm doing weight loss too and the stuff I'm doing is working I just have to keep doing it but every time I feel like giving up  

You can call me Alex did change my name a few months ago  

Alexa 

I'll send you a msg Alex. I'm pretty clued up with fat loss and body building but always love discussing with others.  

cool stuff  

Alexa I couldn't msg you because your journal is set to private. Pop me a msg.  

As long as you having a lean Protein like Chicken or Rump steamed or Fried in Coconut Oil and alot of Steamed Green Veg, don't worry.Have 100-150g Chicken or Protein source.Your starchy carbs should only be after gym.Avoid anything grain based or made with flour.They're not healthy 

does drinking lots of water help curb your appetite at all?  

Tabetha yes, water does help but everyone has different levels of a hormone called Ghrelin that controls your appetite so we need to look into what we can consume to help with the appetite at times.  

Omega 3 tablet in the morning and green tea kind of does it for me but I’m constantly hungry too 

consider eating every 2hrs.as snacks have 5g no salt no sugar peanut butter 

thickums I decided to make my own supplement and will be using green tea extract. I have an import company so sourcing ingredients won't be a hassle. At3yu24 I can't eat every 2 hours due to my fasting lifestyle but I can make better choices and improve my food intake :)

How was your body fat loss with intermitten fasting?I'm sceptical to try it after I read numerous times it can cause muscle loss 

I never measured my bodyfat but I went from a size 46 jeans to fitting into a size 38. There definitely was good fat loss which I could see by the way I fitted into clothes. I was a person who could never wear a slim fit T-Shirt and then became somebody who went and bought about 7 of them! lol. I also gained muscle while following a fasting lifestyle. Fasting helps your body create more growth hormone. Those articles that state that fasting makes one lose muscle mass are misguided. Body fat is stored energy and your body will first break fat down before ever breaking down muscle tissue. Only very long periods of consecutive fasting can lead to that and I don't think anyone following a fasting lifestyle ever goes 7 or more consecutive days without any food.
