Week 5 Day 5
Well, Canadian Thanksgiving was on Monday, and I told myself from the start it would be my only cheat day. It was glorious - turkey, potatoes, gravy, stuffing, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie. The problem was, it got me craving more sugar and starchy carbs again, so Wednesday I broke my diet again without really even thinking about it. I won’t go into detail about it but, I felt extremely soft yesterday and still do today, so I think that’s enough motivation to avoid the sweets and heavy starches. I’ve definetly seen good progress in strength, as well as noticeable differences in the fitting of my clothes, haha. I’m glad to be back below 200 again. I think 205 was the highest I’ve ever been. Back when I was competing in BJJ and Muay Thai I competed at 185 lbs, so I’ve either put on some muscle, or fat, or both. Its definetly nice to be pushing my limits again, it brings back a nostalgic feeling almost… just this time I’m not throwing up from exhaustion… yet.
