August 21st. Progress.
Ah, I am super sleepy right now, but I feel great!!! The past two nights, I finally did what I have been intending to do, and I wrote my workouts out before I went to the gym, and then kept track of all of my weight/sets/reps. I used to do this regularly when Heather and I worked out together, but haven’t done it a while, and I have been needing to and wanting to do it, so I’m glad that I did. It’s very helpful to get to the gym and already have a plan of attack and know exactly what you are going to do!! It also makes me stay and do every last set and every last exercise, rather than just doing a few things and then quitting. I have a pre-thought out plan, and so there is no excuse for not doing everything on my list. Because I had it all planned out ahead of time, I actually did a little more than I had been doing lately for my chest two nights ago, which was great because I felt like I finally wasn’t slacking off. And last night, I did my whole planned out back routine, and I actually felt so good that I wanted to do even more, but I stuck to what I had planned out ahead of time (don’t want to overtrain), and noted that I felt great still and had energy, so next time I may add in another exercise or some more sets.
I have definitely been eating better this week after a few very sloppy weeks diet wise, and my cardio has been extremely consistent, so I feel like I am making great progress. I am lifting heavy and hard, and I think the hard work is really starting to show!!! That’s why we do it isn’t it? To make gains, improve our health and physique, and then feel great about ourselves and the way that we look and feel!! I need to take pictures, which I probably will this week, of my back and legs so that I can see my progress as I go. I have been working REALLY hard on my back, and I plan to start working really hard on my legs, so in a few weeks I want to know that I am making strides.
Ah, and I have no idea what is going on in my personal life lol. I have been hanging out with Carolyn a lot, but she is pretty much 100% insane, and we are not dating or anything, just friends. I have been asked out a few times by some very cute girls at the gym, and maybe I will go out with one of them, I was actually kind of thinking about hanging out with one this weekend, except I know that Carolyn will feel jealous and it will be a weird thing. Mayah is doing amazingly well!!! She is so tall and thin now, I worry that she isn’t eating enough! I am spending the day with her tomorrow, so I can’t wait!!! I dunno what we will do yet, but spending time with her is my favorite thing to do 
. Ok, time for cardio!!
