David G. — 4-Week Aggressive Fat Loss Plan
Medical Strong Program · Tirzepatide Integration · 6–7 Training Days/Week · Coach Larry Williams Jr.
🥩 Daily Macro Targets — 2,300 Calories
| Macro | Daily | Calories | % | Per Meal | Why |
| PROTEIN | 175 g | 700 cal | 30% | ~44 g | 1g/lb body wt — preserves 139.8 lbs LBM |
| CARBS | 256 g | 1,024 cal | 44% | ~64 g | Training fuel for 6–7 day/week schedule |
| FAT | 64 g | 576 cal | 26% | ~16 g | Hormone health + satiety; lean sources |
| TOTAL | — | 2,300 cal | 100% | ~575 cal | −700 from TDEE of 3,001 |
Why high carbs at 44%? You're training 6–7 days/week. Low-carb diets crash performance, spike cortisol, and burn muscle. At this activity level, carbs are not optional — they're the fuel that makes your training productive and your fat loss real.
💊 Tirzepatide Guide — Dual GIP/GLP-1 Protocol
What makes Tirzepatide different: Unlike semaglutide (GLP-1 only), Tirzepatide targets both GLP-1 AND GIP receptors. This gives stronger appetite suppression, better insulin sensitivity, AND better muscle preservation than GLP-1 alone. It amplifies your fat loss without adding muscle risk — IF you keep protein high.
Week 1
Pre-Tirz.
174.5 lbs
−0.9 lb
20.3% → 19.9%
Normal appetite — Tirzepatide not yet active. Diet does all the work.
Follow the 2,300 cal plan exactly. Hit 175g protein. This week is about building the habit so the drug enhances a routine, not creates one from scratch.
Week 2
Building
173.0 lbs
−1.5 lbs
19.9% → 19.2%
Appetite beginning to drop. You may notice less cravings, quicker satiety, or reduced food noise.
PROTEIN FIRST at every meal — eat it before touching carbs or fat. If nauseous: protein shake instead of solid food. Do NOT skip protein to manage nausea.
Week 3
Active
171.2 lbs
−1.8 lbs
19.2% → 18.3%
Full suppression building. Decision fatigue around food lifts. Cravings diminish. Eating feels effortless.
Let Tirzepatide do its job. Stop when comfortable — even mid-meal. Prioritize sleep and hydration (electrolytes daily). Keep training intensity high.
Week 4
Peak
169.1 lbs
−2.1 lbs
18.3% → 17.3%
Peak suppression. Hitting protein may take deliberate effort. Fat loss accelerates.
Minimum floor: 130g protein / 1,200 cal — never go below this. If appetite is very low, use shakes over solid food. Schedule the Week 4 InBody re-scan.
⚠️ Tirzepatide Side Effect Protocol
| Side Effect | Management |
| Nausea (most common) | Smaller meals; avoid fried or fatty food on injection day; ginger tea or ginger chews; protein shakes over solid meals |
| Constipation | 1 gallon water daily; fiber from veggies at every meal; psyllium husk or Miralax as needed |
| Too full to eat | Protein shake first; then cottage cheese or Greek yogurt — high protein, low volume, easy to get down |
| Loss of appetite | This is the medication working. Still eat 3–4× daily. Minimum floor: 130g protein / 1,200 cal |
| Fatigue or brain fog | Add electrolytes (LMNT, Liquid IV); increase sodium slightly; ensure you're not undereating calories |
| Injection site reaction | Rotate sites; inject into subcutaneous fat (abdomen, thigh, upper arm); use room-temp medication |
🗓 Weeks 3–4 Meal Plan · Tirzepatide Active Phase
By Week 3 Tirzepatide is fully active. The food obsession lifts. The need to constantly think about your next meal — gone. When you're done with a meal, you're done. This is the phase that feels easy. Let the medication work. Focus on protein. Keep training. Sleep 7–8 hours.
Meal 1
7:00 AM
Protein-First Morning
420 cal
P: 50g
C: 30g
F: 10g
2 scoops whey protein in milk OR 5 egg whites + 2 whole eggs
Tirzepatide may suppress morning appetite — shake is easier than cooking
½ cup oats if you're hungry; skip if still full from Meal 4 the night before
STOP when comfortable — do not force the oats if appetite is low
Meal 2
12:00 PM
Protein First on Plate
570 cal
P: 55g
C: 60g
F: 12g
6–7 oz chicken / turkey / lean beef — eat this FIRST before touching carbs
1 cup rice or 1 cup potato — carbs are still here; you may naturally eat less
2+ cups any vegetables — broccoli, zucchini, peppers, leafy greens (unlimited)
If Tirzepatide makes you full: finish protein, leave some rice — that's fine
Meal 3
3:30 PM
Shake or Light Snack
270 cal
P: 38g
C: 28g
F: 3g
If training today: 1 scoop whey + banana — still fuel the session
If not training and not hungry: Greek yogurt ½ cup + ½ cup berries
Tirzepatide suppresses afternoon cravings hard by Week 3 — check in with hunger
Minimum: get protein in, even if it's just a shake — don't skip protein
Meal 4
7:00 PM
High-Protein Family Meal
570 cal
P: 52g
C: 57g
F: 17g
6–7 oz any lean protein — salmon, chicken, steak, ground turkey, shrimp
½–1 cup starch (rice, potato, pasta) — let your hunger guide portion; smaller is fine
2 cups vegetables — roasted, steamed, or stir-fried; fill the plate with these
If Tirzepatide kills dinner appetite: eat protein first, even if it's just 4 oz
Week 4 Check-In Protocol: Schedule your follow-up InBody scan. Measure waist, chest, arms, thighs. If you've hit 169–170 lbs with LBM maintained, the plan is working perfectly. Bring these numbers to your prescriber when discussing your next Tirzepatide dose adjustment.

David — your InBody tells me everything I need to know. You've got a strong foundation: 139.8 lbs of lean mass, solid skeletal muscle, and visceral fat that's already in a healthy range. You're not starting from scratch. You're refining.
The 175 → 170 goal is completely achievable in 4 weeks. What's even more exciting: with Tirzepatide, high protein, and 6–7 days of training, you're not just losing weight — you're recomping. You lose fat and the scale drops, but the muscle stays or even grows. That's how you go from 20% to 16% body fat without losing your physique.
The plan I've built is aggressive but sustainable. You're eating real food — eggs, chicken, salmon, rice, potatoes, oats. Nothing is banned. Nothing requires you to be miserable. The 700-cal deficit creates momentum; Tirzepatide magnifies it; your training anchors it.
You're busy. I know that. That's why Sunday batch prep is built in, meals are simple, and the pre-workout is a shake and a banana. This plan fits a real life.
The only thing I need from you: hit the protein. Every. Single. Day. 175g is the minimum. Everything else is negotiable. Protein is not.
Let's make these 4 weeks count. — Coach Larry
