Final Update:

Well after a week off of training during thanksgiving I decided that I am going to stop following the cut diet plan as it was starting to get into the final weeks of show preperation (which I am not doing). Sticking to the same routine for three months is starting to wear on me a little bit so its time to move on.

Over the course of 12 weeks I have gone from 217 lbs to 205 lbs for a total of 12 lbs of weightloss. If you consider that I was averaging 1 lbs of weightloss a week I would say that the diet worked perfectly. I am very happy with the results and how well I was able to stick to the diet. I have not noticed very much muscle loss so the diet delievered as promised.

On similiar note I have decided that I want to continue getting leaner instead of going straight into a bulk. To help me do this I have hired Chuck to write me a personalized diet plan and workout. This will be more of a lifestyle diet which enables you alot more food choices (there are tons of them actually) and the ability to have a personal life without completely ruining your diet. We are also looking to add some LBM at the same time, so hopefully everything goes well.
