…and I’m now the heaviest I have ever been. I couldn’t be happier. I feel like doing the happy dance. A few things happened since last entry: as stated then, I was attempting to moderate gains to 1lb each week, so I slightly reduced my calories intake. As a result, I ended up loosing 1 pound. I guess the teaching to take from it is that the difference between growing or loosing weight is too subtle for me, and it is very difficult to fine tune it. I can apparently gain weight while reducing my bf%, but that doesn’t mean I can train or diet for it. My point is, if I trim some fat while packing muscle it will be welcomed, but dieting to trim fat while gaining muscle is beyond my wisdom for now.

That said, I decided to go back to the diet and workout scheddule that allowed me to gain 2 pounds every week since december. After all, I still have my upper abs somewhat visible, and shouldn’t be too concerned about fat gain at this stage. Granted, I cannot conceive myself with a gut, but I can cope with a small pad over my lower abs. And I’m sure my abs dont’t show more just because… I don’t have much to show to begin with, so targeting the abs with good weights will enhance that too. Actually, I have noticed some improvement also on my obliques, so the mid-section seems to be responding quite well to the treatment I’ve been giving to it.

Well, it seems it is time for a new short-term goal now. I’ll go for 155lbs (70 kilos). I use the metric system, and in my mind, 70 kilos is my ticket out of skinnyland. Deadline is March 13th.

Now I have to go celebrate. Eating, of course.
