Vlog #81: STEEMFAT: After 3 weeks of working hard I gained weight, lost muscle and added more fat. Hmmm....I need a change of plans.
Today was a big day. The super measuring machine in the gym would determine how much muscle I have gained and how much fat I lost.
I was very pleased with my progress pictures so I was sure that I would get fantastic results.
Couldn't really hide my disappointment when the machine measuring lady told me I lost muscle (-2%), gained more fat and weight (+1 KG).
For a slight second, I was overcome by that feeling that you just want to give up.

But no way. I only have nine weeks left to do something about it.
Apparently, I have not been eating enough carbs and protein to maintain my muscles. Looking for energy my body started to eat them.
I don't understand how that works. I keep track of my exercises and have been improving every week on every exercise. I would have expected them to have grown.
But maybe I went a bit overboard on the diet.
STEEMFAT is a journey to get in shape. I'm just going to have to find a new direction. And I will find it.
