Post Velocity Diet - 2 weeks

It is two weeks now since I completed the diet! Here are my current composition stats:

Weight: 185
Waist: 34"
Neck: 15.50
Bicep: 13.75
Body fat: 21.9% (bathroom scale)
Body fat: 15% (Navy Tables)

So the numbers have not really changed since last week. This is great because I continue to eat about 2700 calories a day and it feels like a LOT! This is solid evidence that my metabolism did not tank over the course of the diet. I am certain the quality calories, lots of protein and frequent eating are helping to maintain and boost my metabolism.

I must have become addicted to the morning weight-vest walks (39lbs) during the diet. I still get in about two miles a day and really look forward to starting my day this way.

I have decided to train for the upcoming Tactical Strength Challenge in March. I have just a few weeks but it seems like a good idea to set some sort of physical goal after completing the diet and the TSC is perfect for this. I have baseline numbers from last year and hope to see improvement.
