So I'm not seeing a hell of a lot of difference, but then - I never do. This is mid-July to current (mid-August). All 15 lbs "lost" returned within days of my starting to eat again. XD

Did my best to remove some fur, but it's hard without an assistant. (Teeheehee.)

I just link you to the album, save myself some work.



I swear by The Beard of Odin I did not cheat at all. Not sure what's up with that. Getting bf testing redone shortly, and we'll see what it has to say.
 
Sometimes I'm convinced I have a metabolic "disorder" (see: extreme survivor genetics - maladaptive in a decadent modern world, but probably friggen awesome back in the day).

However, I happen to know that if I don't strength train (all other factors being equal), the weight comes off like nothin', so the only reasonable conclusion is that I am building muscle like a freaky mutant.

My strength did increase by 25-50% on most lifts in this period.
 
Your stomach is where I see the most difference in the side shots. Keep at it. You'll see change.
 
You're not giving yourself enough credit. I can definately see a difference in your pics. Whatever you do, don't be so hard on yourself that you give up.
 
I didn't check the pics yet but that's crazy you gained every pound back! I gained about 50% of my weight back lost doing PSMF which is almost the same thing from what I know.

Yeah. This is the second time I've tried a proper keto diet and both times the results have been terrible, imo. In contrast, eating more calories overall and tons of carbs (even dirty ones) produces fat loss and crazy strength gain. Kinda strange on the fat loss, but whatever. I've officially confirmed that I can pretty much eat everything I like, and just track calories. :D

Re: the other two - Thanks, but it's not encouragement I'm looking for. I would like objective feedback regarding the visual difference.
