    So I am on day 10 of my prep phase, and I am still alive!  Some days seemed a lot harder then others but was proud that I stuck to it.  I fluctuated between 5-7lbs lost, but from what I understand the prep phase loss is mostly just water and its main function is to get your glycogen levels to where they should be to commence the CBL phase.  So a little about myself, I am 37, have a 1 year old daughter.  Used to do a lot of olympic style lifting before I had my daughter to train for a firefighter competition that I was in, but just recently started back into heavier lifting.  My brother-in-law told me about this book so I decided to give it a try.  I have done low carb for 5 days here and 5 days there, with clean eating.  This book intrigued me I thought why not give it a try.  The hardest part for me is the lack of fruit:(  Especially in the summer.  I love fruit!  And not spotted brown bananas lol!  But to trade in fruit for ice cream, I think I can make the sacrifice 😉  I train in the mornings before work at 5am.  I know its not ideal but it works for me.  So tonight is my first night back on carbs 🙂  Going to have a potato with dinner (and of course some protein) then a late bowl of cereal before bed.  I am hoping this program works for me.  Wish me luck!  Starting weight (after prep phase) - 140Goal weight - 135BF% - 18%

    good luck. I'm on day 4 & really looking forward to getting carbs back.How often did you weigh yourself during rep phase? I'm too scared to re-weigh incase it's not working!
