The Call of the Wild: The Results of the 35th Expedition
Sunday, January 21, 2024
Yes, in my first win of 2024, I lost 5.88% for a 15 lb weightloss! I did it through increasing my walking and lifting while upping my fat. In fact, this last six-weeks was the most fat I had as a high-fat carnivore...so, I guess EVER in a fitness context. You can check out the breakdown in the re-added Intake section of the site.
I was happy to see that I made it over the hump of 1 in my challenge to achieve the golden ratio. I also dropped down a jeans size, did not lose mass in my arms—still 16.5", and increased mass in my shoulders. Those handful of data points mean more to me than revisiting scale notches. It shows that the work I put in matters.
I achieved today's victory by a daily average context of 2360 calories with 87.2% of them coming from fat, thereby transforming my engine to run on—you guessed it—FAT, my own or from that 16.2 lbs of butter I had!
I wholly believe that our energy comes from fat and protein is for repair & maintenance. Our body HAS to have these two macros. As far as that other "macro," what we all know is actually sugar, eye-opening as it is, you don't need that ice cream truck in your life.
I added a bit to this site, including the fabled Tunes section, which features the soundtrack to The 35th Expedition: The Call of the Wild.
Now it's on to The 36th when I'll write another one of these posts on March 3.
I've now got to go live my next soundtrack...
