well overall the visit went great this weekend, But holy shit my brother-in-law can drink! Crazy f*cker drank so much last nite that he shat ON the toilet seat. He missed that bigass hole completly. He blamed it on the avacado rolls from cheescake factory but im more incline to think it was the 20 budlights he pounded. It was hilarious last night, and i took a pic, but now that the booze is burned off, I’m sure he only washed that shit off with water. I hope i dont get some weird kind of butt cooties.
Anyways… Ill be back to eating clean and exercin hardcore again tommorow,. I got my new diet plan from Alex; Ill post it after I email him for few clarifications.
Gonna start usin egg protein powder instead of whey since I think milk is what makin me breakout. Its more expensive, but so is medicne and dermatologist visits. Oh well, shit happens, just gotta roll with the punches. Be cool and have a great weekend! I cant wait to sleep in my bed after bein on an airmattress for 4 days

I think I may have discovered the culprit for my copmplexion problems. Have had skin like a teenagr for the last few weeks, and have been puzzled.
Well, since the in-laws have been down, been drinkin beer, eatin bbq, BUT not eatin tons of fat free cheese and no whey protein drinks… Skin is clearer than its been in months. I guess dairy is the culprit after all.

Gonna have company saturday till next thrsday. Drink some beers, rewatch the last UFC, have some laughs, and hopefully everything will go well… but by tuesday im sure ill be climbing the walls lookin for alone time, and peace and quiet! ** must . think . positive**
==============================
Somethin to look forward to –> I should have my new diet plan all made up for me by the time they clear out - so I’ll be able to transition right into it. I sent out my pics, data sheets, all that shit so Alex should get em tommorow or tuesday. In the meantime, I’m gonna make a point of lifting daily, even if i have a hangover, and a minimum of 15 min cardio daily. I’ll be back when everything settles down and the family invasion blows by. I keep bodsypace on the D.L. so I dont jump on here while I have company. Ive found that alotta people tend to be "energy vampires" when it comes to fitness type stuff, so I keep it to myself. Have a great weekend!!!!

On an upbeat note! I learned a long time ago not to bullshit myself when it comes to how I am progressing bodywise. Now that I am in the “normal fat guy range”, my results have stalled. I’m not willing to dick around and experiment on my own any longer. This weekend I decided to enlist the help of a proffesional that actual bodybuilders go to to for their contest prep. His name is Alex Azarian, I found him thru his sticky on the MD forum, and conversated thru pm’s about my situation; he is definitly a no nonsense, but very enthusiastic guy - advocates a low fat, mod-high carb, high protein. He wasn’t crazy about the diet Im following now, he said its “too hi in fat and too low in carbs and protein.” Im gonna send him an envelope with all my data, pics, current menu, etc. Then hes gonna write me up a regimin to follow, so Ill start that as soon as the in-laws leave next week. Pretty excited to have a pro helpin me, but the proof is in the pudding.. We shall see! If he can get me progressing again, it’ll be the best $100 Ive spent in a while!

Great week! Decided it was time to ratchet up the lifting seriousness, so I got a notebook and started keepin a journal that records, weight reps, sets, etc. Feeling alot sorer these days, now that I don’t cut it short, guesstimate, or drag ass thru the last sets. Been 6 days without refined stuff and since its outta my system, all the cravings are history. Cuttin them out also dropped my daily carbs and calories too, so Im lookin forward to the BF test sunday.
- 7am wake - Protein shake [2 whey (water)]
- 8am: 3 eggs, 1/2 cup oatmeal (splenda, cinnamon)
- 12pm: chicken breast, 2 fat free cheese, walnuts, broccoli
- 4pm: 1 hr pre-WO: weight control oats, Protein shake [casein/whey]
- PWO: Protein shake [casein/whey], small handful raisins
- 7:30-8pm: big can tuna, 1/2 cup cooked brown rice, green vegetable
- 10pm: 3 eggs, 4-5 slices turkey breast, 1 slice munster cheese

After my weekend “self-intervention” I’ve succesfully kicked my addiction to sweets (protein bars and fake ice ream) - and just in time, that shit was startin to get outta control. Luckily, I killed the monster when it was small so it wasn’t a big deal. Plus, Ive started watching Bizzare Foods with Andrew Zimmerman . That guy eats the most disgusting shit Ive ever seen. Great for curbing my appetite so I make sure I have an episode saved on tivo.
Since the refined stuff is outta my system, Ive noticed a few things: I’m not watchin the clock, hungry all day; I get sleepy at 10pm and am not rollin around all night tryin to fall asleep; and have more energy during my workouts/cardio.
Thanks for the jello and pudding ideas, they have definitly come in handy!! I’ve re-discovered gummi bear flavored jello (1 box lime + a red box)… Good stuff

Seems like when “cheat” carbs are NOT in my system, I dont crave em. But lately I feel like a cokehead when its gettin close to dessert time. More importantly tho, fatloss has been stalled lately. Looked over my fitday logs and at my daily food journals. Been chompin on alotta f*ckin protein bars and fake ice cream these days! I think my sweet tooth came back, and it bought a few hungry friends; My dessert food were starting to show up 2 and 3 times a day. NOT GOOD SIR!
Get yer shit together - OR- keep going and slowly get fat again…
Easy decision!!! I’m 86ing the fun stuff and get back to eating as naturally as possible again, so I can burn off the rest of this damn belly once and for all!!! Ill get back to havin sugarfree popsicles or throw together a protein drink when Im feenin for somethin sweet. If I remember correctly, the first week is rough, but then the cravings are history. Probly gonna be a cranky little bitch next week, but it’ll be worth it when I gotta start buyin smaller sized pants again. It’s time to grab the bull by the horns, then spin it around and kick it in the ass

the bike is still hangin in there; I decided to modify it on day 1 by putting a screw in the base, so the 2 pieces wouldnt slide apart while using it. Probly wouldnt be an issue if used on carpet, but itd walk after a while on my patio floor. Easy fix tho, runnin great. I pedaled my ass off this week after my lifting. Probly gonna do a BF test / weigh in tommorow, since its been a while for that. In my experience, the body is either gaining or losing - weight / bodyfat % is rarely in neutral

TOMMOROW is UFC!
Got roped into goin to a buddy’s house tommorow for UFC, so I can meet his new girlfriend. Sounded great last weekend when we made the plans, but Id rather just stream it from my computer, and not have to drive up there, bein polite, etc. Oh well, Its an awesome card, I’m sure it’ll be a good time. Gonna make sure to lift and do cardio beforehand, in case they wanna go to Duffys sports bar. Come to think of it…A night of budlight, chicken fingers, and violence in hi-def would be pretty sweet. Ok, 45 minutes cardio tommorow!

Been lookin for a low impact cardio that I can do and it finally hit me…Gonna huff it to walmart and get a sitdown bike so I can get on the daily cardio again. Postin this because I am stalling, I’m sure its a madhouse there tonite.
================ 2 hours later ===============
The deal is done and put together. Pretty painless process actually; After tax, the bill was only 130 bones. Took about an hour to put together but WOW. What a nice surprise - even with my big ass, the sucker is comfortable, feels solid and works like a champ! This is it
