so you probably thinking this is the not
start to a velocity PT video but we're
brunch now and try new things so this is
the thousand calorie a day challenge for
ten days been Greymon blonde in the
office I've challenged me to do thousand
colors a day for ten days I'm doctor
enter we're going to truck or some body
composition stuff see if I can manage it
I'm going to vlog as much of it as I can
and we're going to make it into a nice
video and just see how I get on really
so we're in my kitchen
it's Sunday the 15th of September the
day before I'm about to start it so I'm
starting it tomorrow on Monday
and I've just been too little and I've
stocked up on some supplies and this is
actually the food for the full 10 days
and there isn't a lot here really so
breaking it down a thousand calories a
day it's not a lot it's not under my
colors that anyone should really be
eating but it's a bit of a challenge
it's for 10 days it's going to be
monitored and we're gonna see what we
can do so I'm just going to stop the
video here and I'm going to show you
what food off actually laughter the
Sundays so here is all the food I've
chosen so it isn't a lot of food for 10
days if you look at it and break it down
and you can see here that I've chosen
some simple foods and it's going to be
very very say me and that's just purely
so that stay within those thousand
calories I'll put it all into
MyFitnessPal which we will throw up on
the screen at some point and just
showing that I am eating just under a
thousand calories it will not go over
and so breaking it down briefly we've
got some 5% lean beef steak mints we've
got some chicken breasts some veg you
have some broccoli and some sugar snap
sorry some potatoes and for the morning
we've got some
Oates the Tomatis that is going to go in
the in mints to make a kind of almost
Bolognese and then just some herbs and
spices and some fry laps or so to cook
everything in really and that's it so
it's going to be three male three males
three meals and it's going to be broken
down over the day so I'm going to try
and just do a morning lunch and then
evening meal with nothing in between my
plan is to drink plenty of water
throughout the day and just see how we
get on but yeah that's all the food
I'll be eating for the full ten days so
that's a challenge thousand calories a
day for ten days that's all the food now
I'm gonna cook it all up but first I'm
gonna head out for the day and then I'll
recap you with you this afternoon and
I'll show you we could get there
basically portioning it all up I'm
probably not going to cook it all now
because obviously we want it to stay
fresh and I'm not a massive fan of fries
and normal meals so how they cook half
now and then half and you know as we
kind of get on through the ten days so
roll of cooking close
[Music]
okay guys we've just finished meal
prepping I've done enough food for three
days I'm hoping there's none left over
if there is I'm sure awesome else in the
family too but let's check out what I've
made for the next three days so first
thing I made is some lean mint so the
Lehman's we showed looked at earlier
sorry and this is made with the passata
it's just to make it basically not dry
thrown some spices in there just to make
it a bit more interesting
next dark out sauce we've got some nice
new potatoes or baked potatoes and I've
boiled these let them cool and then I'm
actually throwing them in a in a hot pan
that paprika salt garlic and some passed
on there as well again bit more
interesting next is our second protein
sauce which is the chicken breast botfly
this just pan-fried it and again I've
run some barbecue rub on there a little
bit more solid bit more garlic and then
finally a little bit of greens though
ice and colorful like the right there we
go this is just our veg sauce so that's
pretty much it so those are the three
components and now I'm gonna go over
here and I'm going to box them up and
see what it looks like okay guys so that
is the meals all sorted out and what the
stop and you may notice that there is
only veg in four of the fire so it for
the six meals I'm not sure on a box is
going to be with the mince I've only put
it with one of the meals if it works and
when I do
next batch of cookin then I will
obviously include it in there I have got
quite a lot of a chicken leftover and a
load of mints as well so I will probably
either give that to another common but
or contradict myself and I'll freeze it
but that's it in terms of the meals
practice up so I'm gonna box mark now
and pop them in the fridge so just out
of interest and if you are interested as
well how much did it cost me so I'm just
gonna quickly I mean it's not a massive
calculation as you can imagine so for
all that food don't feel be able to see
that that's 33 pounds and fifty nine
pence it's not food obviously for ten
days and it's obviously not enough food
for most people offer anyone a thousand
colors isn't enough but just to kind of
give you an idea they'll probably be a
little bit left over as well from that
as well especially the mints I didn't
realize the packets are actually kilos
not 750 grams as one on the badly of
their new packaging a little which I
didn't see because I'm not very
observant obviously but yeah 33 pound 59
if anyone's interested and they're all
packed up done and that's a prep them
now for the start tomorrow and that's
pretty much it so I'll wake up in the
morning and I'll get my weight on the
scales first thing and then I'm so when
I'm in the office I will probably get
some body composition stuff so I'll pull
you up so my measurement stuff like that
and I'll kind of it my start point and
then we'll do that again
in the end of the ten days on day eleven
bit of a twist to the old thousand
calories a day for ten days but we'll
get to that in ten days
see you then good morning everyone
it's Monday the 16th of September and
today is a start of my 1,000 calorie
challenge over a 10 day period so sorry
only run in a video that I prepped
summer meals did I'm a shopping
yesterday works at our McAlary is
exactly what I'll be eating so I'm gonna
be stick to those same three meals every
day I got my weight this morning as well
I didn't video I'll get a picture cuz it
was early and everyone else in the house
is asleep and my starting weight is
thirty
Stone 11 pounds so put your bets in now
with the amount of weight I lose over
these 10 days and we have all got a bit
of a guess on in the office which we're
going to catch up with later and see
what the odds in the office think I'm
going to get to in terms of my weight
when we get in the office I'm going to
show you my three meals just to kind of
have a bit of a catch up with everyone's
guesses and we'll just kind of take it
from there really
I'll keep everyone updated with how I'm
feeling I'm still gonna train as normal
so that's not going to change your also
I'm going to keep everything as similar
as I can on now yeah we'll just see what
happens so just finish do my
measurements you saw very quickly in
that clip there just a quick video and
so just in measurements on five
different places of just in three points
around the waist in my chest and my
mouth I as well and so that they're
truck now it's obviously doomed so I'll
just do them again at the end of the ten
days and see if there's any differences
there obviously I've got my weight
though as well and that's obvious is
something else I'll be monitoring
probably that as I said earlier at the
beginning which I've done midpoint and
then at the end as well and I'll say for
the measurements really just wanted to
quickly go over the My Fitness Pal
because that's one reason to track my
calories and all that kind of thing and
so I've got it here in front of me I get
Brun and to throw up on the screen at
some point but basically breakfast is my
oats that's 200 calories and then from a
lunch that's what I'm gonna have my can
we have my chicken which about today and
then it's a broccoli some potatoes
afternoon some a third meal and the
evening is the the beef statement with
the the Passat and the potatoes again
some of those have got greens in some -
but I've account and fill up with
calories are also nice to smush in a
coffee there with a little bit of semi
skimmed milk as well so that puts me at
995 calories for each day so I'm
actually six calories under and I've
incorporated this oil that I've cooked
all the food in it as well I haven't
incorporated sauce because I haven't had
any if I do fall ill any kind of
throughout the week ten days
I can't just throw that in there because
I've got the calories but it will maybe
a little bit and it will be tracked but
that's pretty much the calories for the
10 days cool morning everybody it's
Monday no it's not it's Tuesday the 17th
of September I'm on day two of the old
thousand cars a day for 10 days
challenge feeling pretty good today I'm
just in Lincoln I've just finished up
with a learner it's just gone 11:30 and
I've just got myself I think it's a bit
of a cheeky Starbucks now only reason
I've done that is because I've got a
finish bit of paperwork and then head
back to the office I'm not going to be
back in the office till gone so I've
o'clock and I'm not eating anything yet
today because I've been traveling online
in with a with a learner so I've got
myself some some oats the the five grain
oats that they do a little bit more
color ISM I use love him a pot of oats
in the morning but it's one of those
things just making it work and I've got
myself a regular americano so all of
these together it's about 350 360
calories so a little bit more than what
I bet at this point but I'm just gonna
make those adjustments later on in the
day with my meals just grow a little bit
a chicken cut all over potatoes or
whatever it works best but yeah that's
where I match Tuesday feeling okay so
I'm going to eat this and I'm gonna get
back to the office just go back to the
office now it's now quarter to five a
little bit later on from a knife spoke
to earlier when I was at Starbucks at
lunchtime mister for lunch not got much
filming done today just because we've
all been really really busy in the
office today so not managed to get
anything filmed but as I said I'm not
going to film every second every day of
every day just because it's kind of
content how I'm feeling and how the day
is going that kind of thing probably
won't get any filming done tomorrow
either because I've got busy day and not
all of us are in the office either
then on Thursday we'll definitely get
some content filmed I'm just going to
kind of get filming of the guys and kind
of what they predict my weight loss
gonna be up to now I'm feeling pretty
good not feeling lethargic or anything
like that feeling pretty any Geoff
energetic sorry I've got one more meal
left for today which is going to be a
lower amount because of my Starbucks
earlier on today making sure I'm
drinking plenty of water which is key
thing to help and feeling full and
hydrated
but other than that feeling pretty good
so I'll probably catch up with you in
couple days
on Thursday hi guys it is Friday
24 September not video for a couple of
days just been really busy teaching
everyone else been teaching it is about
20 pass/no 20 to 7:00 in the morning you
just got to start with a client just
kind of on it's update things are going
ok I'm not feeling too bad I'm not
feeling that you know not what low in
energy just fill in a little bit
lethargic then so I'm just kind of going
with it and just keep eating my meals
keeping consistent drinking plenty of
water
I'm not manage to get the gals
predictions as of yet just been that
busy and I'm actually on annual leave
today so I'll probably catch up with you
on Sunday when I'm back in teaching
right everybody so I've been slack as in
recording content for this for the past
car five days the beginning did loads of
content which you're obvious is watched
last five days have been really bad I've
just been not busy up an in Birmingham
up in Stockton working over the weekend
a bodybuilding show which Bron another
clip of now and then I've just been that
busy and obviously my car's been that
low my focus and my attention just been
crap so apologies for that in advance
I did actually finish the the turn so
the thousand calories for ten days
yesterday is the 26th of September now
so I did my final weigh in this morning
again didn't manage to get a clip of
that because I was up a far this morning
traveling to Birmingham today so I did
get him await will never do wrong
I'm motto or what is 11 pounds just over
I was 12 stone 13 and 3/4 on the scale
so it's just over 11 pounds in 10 days
it's just over a pound pound a day I can
of why I expected we are at guesses
which said at film I didn't and Brannon
guessed 18 pounds grain guessed 10
pounds I was a green dress and I think
rimas 40 pounds been guessed 10 pounds
and I had
inkling it would be ten eleven pounds as
well so about a pound a day roughly it's
not surprising really if you kind of
think about that mark my maintenance
colors color is sorry around 2400 today
obviously like a 14 1,500 calorie
deficit every day other up with the 10
days it's a huge deficit to be him
obviously although that's not far you
could probably account at least half of
that to kind of just volume of food and
water weight and I would not recommend
it plain and simple I felt like crap
yesterday especially like nine-day 9 and
10 just really really lethargic found
myself being rocked a lot all the time I
was drinking like 3/4 cups of coffee a
day which usually I drink one maybe two
so it's not something I would recommend
definitely not something that's
sustainable and it's definitely not
something I would do again but it was
interesting to see how I kind of got on
with it I did do some measurements as
well earlier on and I've lost around an
inch and a half from all around my waist
like say the same chest was half an inch
I think but no nothing too dramatic was
just more the actual weight that was
lost which was which is exceptional
wouldn't recommend it as a diet to
anybody because it's yeah I'm just
wooden it's just not enjoyable at all
the brain is like 600 calories just a
function alone on a day so obvious an
average so you know I'm on being a
circle so that for 400 calories so yeah
don't do it don't try it
so there's actually a little bit of a
spin and a twist to this challenge so
there is going to be a part two
[Music]
to this video and we'll end this here is
part 1 I've just been doing some stuff
in the kitchen which will lead to part 2
which I'm going to be doing on Friday
the 27th of September tomorrow which is
going to be almost like a little bit of
a twist to the star if you like so you
will catch me in part 2 and you can see
what it's all about I've been in the
kitchen thanks for watching
