How did I feel?
To be honest I managed fine and felt full of energy. I feel particularly focused with work and on keeping this up long term. Didn’t crave caffeine or chocolate at all but there is still time yet. Really pleased with my diet however I would have and should have eaten a little more. Let see what tomorrow brings especially when I am fasting for 16-18 hours from 9 tonight.

My personal challenge to lose the gut in ONLY 21 days…
For those that don’t know me let me quickly introduce myself. I am the founder and proud owner of Northeast Boot Camp and FIT4U Personal Training, where my team happily helps men and women finally solve their fat loss problems here in Newcastle upon Tyne.
Now you know who I am and what I do it’s now time to share with you what this 21-day fat loss challenge is all about…
As a lot of you who know me I have just recently returned from a week in Ibiza. I am not going to lie to you… I HAD A COMPLETE BLOW OUT!!! But I did try my best to be good for 28-days prior to my crazy holiday. Check out my results and my before and after pics below.
Before: 198lb Waist 95cm
14 days: 191lbs Waist 86cm. Lost 7lbs and waist dropped 9cms
28-days: 186lbs Waist 83cms. Lost 12lbs and waist dropped 11cms
I think that I done pretty good if I do say so myself! As you can see the biggest change occurred when I followed my very own Rapid Fat Loss Detox to the letter for the first 14 days with know cheats however the following 14 days I was fasting 3 times per week for 24 hours but I didn’t follow the detox to the letter and did have alcohol and caffeine BUT I did eat healthy where the only thing I failed to avoid was chocolate. This could have completely ruined all of my results if I were to over do it however I didn’t, hence I still got fairly good results. This shows if you are good 80-90% of the time you still can lose body fat just not as fast as being 100% strict.
The thing is I was happy with the results but thanks to my holiday I have gained a few extra pounds and I HAVE NOT been so good with my nutrition since I got back from my holiday. I go away again on the 28th of August with the fiancée and I desperately want to be in good shape (even better than before I hope!)
The last time I done this I didn’t document much of what I apart from share the meals that I was having. This time around I plan on sharing with you ABSOLUTEY EVERYTHING. I will tell you how I am feeling (both good or bad), I will share with you the workouts I am doing, my meal plans as well as the food I will be eating daily and this will include recipes and cooking instructions. Basically I am going to follow my Rapid Fat Loss Detox that we give to all our clients and I am going to follow a training plan that is based on the same training principles we also use with all our clients.
There is one other thing… The last time I done this I detoxed for 14 days then I tried 24 hour fasting 3 times per week for a further 14 days. This time around I did plan to do 28-days of both detoxing and fasting (but only for 16 hours at a time with the odd 24 hour fast) while training twice per day at least 4 times per week (same as previously) BUT I was ill with a stomach bug for the first 2 days and as a result I struggled to have the willpower to follow the detox to the letter but I put in everything I could with my training.
So when I it come to my results there was… NO CHANGE!! Well this simply proves that you CAN NOT out train a poor diet! On the plus side it does show that I have trained myself so well and thanks to eating clean (most of the time) I have effectively re-tuned my body to deal with poor food and drink choices in the short term BUT I know if I were to carry on eating and drinking this way my body would sooner or later fail to deal with the ABUSE I would be putting it through.
I know I need to get cracking sooner rather than later because if I don’t take control of my weight now (I am the only one who can do this) my fat cells are going to get larger and they might even start multiplying, making it more difficult for me to burn fat in the future. To be blunt I refuse to be fat! Even if it is just a few extra pounds!!
So here we are again I am prepared to eat clean and train hard so that I am in the best shape ever for La Manga with the fiancée. Doing this means A LOT TO ME PERSONALLY so I am going to make a conscious effort to stick to my plan for 21-days starting TODAY August the 8th. Once I get back I will continue to eat clean with the odd cheat meal but I SERIUOSLY want to do better than my last attempt.
As far as “eating normal” I am going to make sure that eating clean most of the time is my eating normal. WHY? Its simple… the so-called eating normal that we are all familiar with is the cause of me putting weight on so in my eyes there is nothing normal about it whatsoever. It makes me tired, sluggish and miserable and this is not NORMAL for me at all. PERIOD!
So I have simply made a concrete decision that I do not want to gain any more weight and that it STOPS RIGHT NOW!

Unlike traditional dumbbells, the kettlebell’s center of mass is extended beyond the hand. This allows for a wide variety of ballistic and swinging movements. By their nature, kettlebell exercises build strength and endurance, particularly in the lower back, legs, and shoulders, and increase grip strength. The basic movements, such as the swing, snatch, and the clean and jerk, engage the entire body at once, and in a way that mimics real world activities such as shoveling or farm work.
