Where the heck have i been?
A lot has happened since my last post. Moving, applying to grad school, job hunting, new injuries, the list goes on and on…. I have managed to keep from going over 120lbs like I did after my 2008 season. I was 111 at my last show in July and I’m currently a soft 116. Not to bad but not where I want to be either considering I should have been about 107 at my show….
Injuries- something is wrong with my right ankle and my right knee and I am still experiencing chronic lower back pain but all of that takes a backseat to my most challenging injury= my aching shoulder. I hurt it back in April and I adjust my routine to deal with it but now its time to actually fix it. I will know after next week if I am having surgery. If so, no upper body exercises for 3 months!
That being said, I have to figure out how to get lean with only my diet. I figure these 3 months will be a good time to rehab my ankle and knee as well so I can come back completely healthy. We will just pray for my back 
Any suggestions for non-contest diet eating to get lean and stay that way? I know "don’t eat crap" and I won’t be eating any processed food or dairy. What else?
