Not sure I (or Brad Pilon) agree with your take on fasting though! :) Hi Mike, I think I’ve got it pretty well sorted now, just need the consistency.

I truly believe that when we try this or that nutrition plan it is never realistic and we can never truly stick to it. The Anabolic Diet has allowed me to be careful about what I eat Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and then I eat whatevver I want Friday, Saturday and Sunday. My only requirement on weekends is to stick to the calories and to be as close to my target ratios as possible. It works because it is much more relaxed than most plans. I know you still fast, but I strongly disagree with fasting (more so now than I did 200+ days ago when the topic was being discussed). The body builder's body needs fuel all day every day!

It's not that I stop for any extended time, but I do tend to go good for two or three days and then have a bad night. I tend to crave things at night time. I then go good for another few days and then have another bad night. This seems to be enough to keep me from progressing as I would like. Put simply I go two steps forward and one step back.
