I can feel the difference at 277 compared to 297 pounds. At 297, I had trouble bending over from a seated position because my belly got in the way, but at 277 I was able to more easily. I’m also able to kneel and stand more easily.

I displayed an image of my diet for one day from MyFitnessPal at a bodybuilding forum online, and someone pointed out that my macros were off. I needed to bring up my protein levels and bring down my fat for the day, so the next time I went shopping I bought some plain nonfat Greek yogurt and low-fat cottage cheese.

I’ve also started putting a scoop of whey protein in my oatmeal in the morning. I only eat one measuring cup of cottage cheese a day. I also bought some shrimp from Costco when I went shopping, and had it for dinner. I’ve been eating broccoli every day for the past couple of days. I’ve got enough so I shouldn’t run out before I go shopping again.

I’ve remained in the 270s.
