Member intro: Paul
Art director that spends too much time sitting and snacking and not enough time working out or eating right. I've made the decision to hold to the 4hb diet and start treating my body right.
Intermittent Fasting for 9-5ers
This challenge will introduce you a weight loss tactic known as intermittent fasting (IF). Don't worry, it's not a starvation diet, it's simply a m...
I am only 3.5 weeks in, but I'm learning this lesson as well. I will be avoiding sugary treats on cheat day from now on. My body seems to react be...
Cottage Cheese is the one white dairy food that is okay to eat. It's in the book. No corn, but carrots in very small amounts are okay.
Oh, hells yes! I see a great breakfast in my future!
I'm in the middle of week 4. Don't think I'll make the 20 lbs loss mark, but probably lost 10, which is a fine rate for me. Bought a Kettle Bell an...

Holy chili cheese bread! I'm amazed. And I think I'm slobbering a little.
Re: Is pink grapefruit juice OK for cheat day?
I'm a newbie at this myself, but I assumed that the grapefruit juice should be 100%, unsweetened grapefruit. Which is very hard to fine. I found Ocean Spray white grapefruit was the only one in my...
Thanks, I'll try that. I guess I was under the impression that I was supposed to push the limits a bit with the sugary stuff (Tim talked a lot abo...
Thanks! I'm looking forward to getting into shape. I want to hike up Mt. St. Helens next summer.
I have been teary too. I know from past experience with Atkins that the body takes some time adjusting to a new routine. This week I'm less likely...
Headaches, anyone?
Hello everyone! I'm beginning my third week of the SCD. I have had two great "cheat" days, I literally could not eat anymore at the end of each day. I may not have had a ton of sugary th...
Re: Day 2 and feeling really irritable
In my experience with different diets, including this one (I'm starting week 3) mood changes are normal, especially if you are making dramatic changes. The first week of SCD I was a complete space...

I heard Tim on the Nerdist podcast and went right out to buy the book. I'm no week two of the slow carb diet. Hoping for great results!
Hey it's been over two weeks since your last post how is the Occom's protocol treating you? I was able to gain a total of 17 pounds last month! Hop...
Doing Occam's even with the massive amounts of eating I have been able to stay the same body fat% or a tad lower than when I started. I'm about 10...
Re: Occom's: Increasing Rest Days
Well I loaned out my book so I wasn't able to read the context but from my memory I thinking of two instances of "rest". I know in between sets or if you are unable to complete a set res...
Re: Starting Occam's Protocol. Any advice?
Well if you want to gain weight you will need to lift some serious weight and eat correctly. This being the correct amount of protein and calories mixed with good carbs. For months I was not pus...
Re: How many reps (over or under) in Occam's?
It isn't about how many you do but the cadence of 5 seconds up and 5 seconds down for the 80-120 seconds and to failure. So if you can do between 8-12 in perfect form and you aren't failing you ne...
We both drink tons of water. My wife actually just stopped breast feeding this week and she will be starting pAGG as well. It is nine months since...
Re: Is 80 grams of L-Glutamine safe?:
I just finished the loading phase with no problems. I am going to cut down to 5 grams at each meal (4 meals a day).

Re: Non Cheat Day social drinks?
It depends on what your goals are, and where you're starting from. If you really want the SCD to work, follow it. You should avoid sodas anyway, diet or regular. Stick to water, and have them thro...

BLOG: 5 month only 12 pounds, please help.
Hi, I am posting for my wife. We have done the SCD for 5 months. We did take a break in the middle for about 3 weeks so more like 4 months total. She gave birth to our daughter on September 21 and...
I like having the ebook, since I can do a keyword search to find details that I can't remember.
Re: Dominant bicep smaller than subordinate:
Is your left arm stronger as well, or just bigger?
Re: Occam's @ Home
You can get elastic exercise bands that don't require much storage room. They come in many sizes I have a few that are thick enough to provide serious resistance (100, 200+ lbs). I got mine from i...
Re: Vegan is Hungry
I don't remember this much of the vegan/vegetarian tips from the book (if there were any)since they didn't apply to me, but I would think that your craving is from not enough calories or protein...
Re: Building Muscle without Gaining Fat Help
I agree that at 17 you probably ought to avoid most supplements. Following the SCD properly (including the cheat day!) will reduce fat, especially at your age, and especially if you are active. I...
