…Well hello ladies.

I realised late last week that I had forgot to actually weight myself and take new measurements of all my muscles. So I got around to doing it last night and I must say there was some bloody good news – in my opinion. Since I started with a decent workout routine and eating properly I have began to gain size.  For instance – my chest has increased by 3inches in less than 2months. In two-weeks of adding “arms” to the routine I have put on half-an-inch, my thighs have increased by about an inch and the weight around my hips has began to fall off.

I’m really happy today about the progress I have made in the last 6 weeks and I am looking forward to starting my full-body routine in July.

Where do I start?
This week has been fairly different. I have focused primarily on my diet – which is good. I’ve gone from barely being able to eat one meal a day of primarily junk food, to being able to eat at least two-if-not-three meals a day of healthier food. I worked out the best way to do it was to slowly cut myself down.
I used to drink absolutely litres of Coca Cola so I decided to just cut it down to one or two glasses, then one glass and finally replace it with water completely.  I treat myself to two “cheat meals” a week, but that’s due to the fact I go out for meals with friends. I have also removed alcohol from my diet completely.
As for as my workout goes: Amazing. I feel so good, it’s unbelievable – I hit all three workouts on time and I was able to improve in every workout again once more.  I am still semi-concerned with my arms though; they just don’t seem to be changing at-all. However, I have been reassured several times that they will improve given time. But it’s just really annoying – I wanted to be ready for this summer.
But I suppose Patience is a Virtue.
I am feeling mentally stronger, as well as physically stronger since I began working out. I’ve also began to wonder on the rest of my life and finally focused on what I wanted to do.
Three weeks into this and I am feeling great.

Hello everyone,  I am making my “weekly” blog, so that I can attempt to keep things updated.  Today was a better day than normal. I went for a light jog before I went for breakfast. I had some cereal, roughly 10gs of protein.

I had a simple lunch, (4) egg omelette with mushrooms, sausages and toast. I then just relaxed for an hour and did my workout. Three new personal bests and then a protein shake. I put too much water in I do believe, because it didn’t taste very nice at all. Then went back out for a walk, headed to the pub with a friend and had a half-pint. I am cutting out alcohol all together, in the next week and then just had Orange Juice. Went to the gym after and then spent an hour there with a personal trainer. According to him, I have my form as well as he’s seen for a long time. Which made me happy. 

Then came home and created dinner. Nothing special, it was just rich, vegetables and chicken but I used a curry stock cube on the rice to give it some flavour. Got rid of as much fats I could and maximized my carbohydrates and protein. It tasted pretty good, so I was happy with that. Then I spoke to my ex, we split up Sunday. We (I) decided that we’d take a break for a while and see where things stand in the future. I then got insulted and called everything under the sun, which placed a downer on my evening. It evidently seems that I only meet mental women and wasted 14months of my life on the crazy broad. 

Thought I’d get the blog sorted before bed.  Plans for the week: 
Stick to Rippeetoe’s exercise regime 
Avoid women as best I can.  Wish me luck.
