No. I'm doing the 3 day split that you suggested (if only slightly modified here and there).
"The Kiss of Death Mistake"
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Instead of Adductor/Abductor and weighted abs I like crunches better and they hurt more.
No go?
How is my blood sugar going to handle carbing? It'll go through the roof won't it?

You don't have to do the ad/abductor machines but if your knees start coming in during squats do them. Weighted situps are superior to crunches however.
As for your blood sugar. It shouldn't go through the roof since the last two months you've been working on insulin management. I know many type II bbers who have carb days without problems.
To err on the side of caution, do this and see what happens. Have three carb meals on Saturday (or Sunday as you wish) and start with very clean carb sources such as brown rice or potatoes. Monitor your bloodsugar and see what happens - if it gives you problems just keep it to that one meal - but you should be okay with more than that. If you're not then simply keep it to that one meal and be more meticulous with diet, etc (you're eating stuff like corn and beans which are higher carb).
Basically you gotta try it and see but if your blood sugar does go out of control then we need to readdress your diet and supplementation.

10-4 Boss.
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

As today is the last day of November I have weighed myself and the results are:
I'm down 18 pounds in 5 weeks!
Feeling good. Looking good.
Thank you everyone.

Very impressive, your dedication is really paying off. Absolutely inspirational.
Well done soldier!!
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Thank you Brother Positive.
Warboss,
Ok, I had 2 hot dogs with 1 slice of whole wheat bread and some mayo. Then I had one square of dark chocolate and my blood sugar was still 89 two hours later.
I feel guilty as fvck though. I like the challenge of finding new ways to minimise carbs in my lifestyle so I'm staying true. Why fvck up what's working?
Perhaps I'll start a low-carb recipe thread of my favorites for brothers who want to go this route.

Do you like that "DreamFields" pastas? I tried it once and my family said if I ever brought it home again they'd beat me to death. Everyone got sick off it. Now I just use an organic whole-wheat pasta with much better results.

Even if I wasn't watching my carb intake I would choose Dreamfields over regular pasta any day of the week. I love the stuff but now use it very sparingly.
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Labs today:
This morning in high anticipation, I went to get my 90 day labwork tests. I'll report back once I have the results next Thursday.
I expect them to be far superior to my last before I started this journal.
I'm still eating eggs, meat, cheese and sugar free jello and veggies. On Sundays I am allowing myself some carbs (but nothing drastic) such as a couple slices of whole wheat bread, some Dreamfields low carb pasta or sugar free chocolate pudding. Though I don't have the inkling for that kind of stuff as I've trained myself to love protein rich foods and vegetables.
Gym is going good and I'm down to a size 40 in jeans when I started I was having trouble with my 44's being snug. Chest and arms are fvcking blowing up to boot.
:cheer:

Good luck with the results, and congratulations on the fat loss.
Remember the fat is as equally as important as the protein though. You need it for energy. No sf-jello cup only meals.

I feel bad that Warboss isn't here to enjoy it with us
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
