12 Week Transformation

12 Week Transformation


This past winter I participated in a 12 Week Body Transformation contest held by Bodyspace. The grand prize was something like $100,000 dollars. I didn't think I would win but I just wanted to do this as a way to keep track of my progress while dieting down for the warm summer months.


I started the contest weighing in at 189lbs  on January 30th, 2011. I'm not sure what my bodyfat percentage was but I would guess that it was definitely over 15%. At the end of the 12 weeks on April 24th, 2011, I weighed 168lbs and I'm guessing under 10% bodyfat. The drastic changes in my physique between the 12 weeks are show below :)

This transformation is amazing! It has really inspired me to do this. I am starting a 12 Week Competition to get shredded at my local gym. Would be awesome if you can help me out on one question: If I have to eat 500 calories under my maintainance to lose weight, which is 2200, do I have to eat this much inside my eating window? Say between 12pm to 8pm. Or do I need to go lower or higher?

If you are doing intermittent fasting, then you should try to eat that many calories inside your eating window.

Start with 2200 calories and gauge results from there. Let me know if you have any other questions I can answer for you :)

Thanks for the reply. I will stick to 2200 and will see how my body reacts to it. What would my macros look like, protein/carbs/fat?

Would the diet need to be low carb and high protein/fat?

I was going to aim for 230p/147c/83f but wasnt sure if this would be correct. I start the 12 weeks on Sunday so getting my diet sorted out would be awesome! Thanks.

The macros are up to you, but when I cut I like to do very low carb to no carb, high protein and high fat.

You can start with the carbs in your macros and adjust from there if things are going as you'd like.
