I started off north of 320 and got down to 211 but at 211 I felt like I lost some strength in the gym as well as the energy was there, just not the same. Probably not the same amount of energy, not reduction enough to launch red flags, but 211 didn't feel as good as 220 or so. Several months ago, I attempted to increase my protein intake to hit certain targets. I re-introduced some sugar (by accident) and found it triggered my appetite. I hit the targets most of the time and before I knew it, I went from that 211 to the mid to upper 230's. The strength actually increased and the energy level returned. After a month or so I settled in the upper 220's. This past weekend I rode side by sides in West Virginia. I pre-made my meals and not intentionally but it turned out to be strict carnivore. No dairy. no sauces or rubs, just meat, salt and water from Thursday til Sunday. On Monday morning I had lost nearly six pounds from Thursday morning. On Monday I started drinking milk again, used some sauce on a steak and snacked on butter a couple three times per day. Before you know it, picked up a couple pounds as quick this week as I dropped it last week. It feels pretty good to know I have control of the dial to drive my own weight/health. Scott
