Hi Everyone,
Above you can see the before and after shots from my time on the Elimination diet (I started on the left hand side and finished on the right)
Now, I didn’t change any of my exercising during the diet, simply applied the Elimination Diet and Information diet, as well as getting to bed on time.
Whilst visually the changes are not drastic ( I don’t have a great deal of body fat to lose) if you look carefully (and I will be using a far better camera next time I do this, you can see the major differences are in my posture, and also in the health of my skin. I also think I look a little leaner.
Believe it or not I actually weight 3lb’s more in the photos on the right (yep – after the elimination diet!)
What happened was that, because I was getting the nutrition I needed my body was able to create more muscle , I was also able to benefit from my training MUCH MUCH more.
I FELT much stronger, had far BETTER sessions, and had far CLEARER thoughts. I also looked alot healthier. as well as actually putting on muscle, so I actually LOOK leaner, but weigh a little more!
Please feel free to leave your comments on what you think about all this.

Wow – you can really see a difference in your arms and your abs.
I will never post pictures (ever) but I can see a big difference in myself as well – my jeans and coat are very very loose now, even though I have only lost around 2kg. I feel much better as well (especially concentrating at work first thing in the morning) and have kicked the coffee habit!

What do you replace the coffee with? I’ve tried to eliminate it but I just felt tired and sleepy all day, crashed early in the evenings and then I found it really hard to get up in the morning (and I get up at 8.30-9.30 in the morning for god’s sake as I live above the shop!) Or is it just a matter of getting used to not drinking coffee and all the tiredness should go away.
By the way, you should listen to your brother and get some fake tan.. Other than that – I can tell the difference in your posture, definetely, great blog, great stuff. Take care.

Don’t listen to them, you don’t need fake tan, you look like a manly English rose.

WoW John, I can see the difference in your abs! The perfect place to loose those extra pounds.
I agree with Yazz, you look great!
Looking forward to putting my before and after pictures on for sure!
