After almost 6 weeks of being the lazy one and not watching my diet hardly.. I"ve been blessed with only gaining about 8lbs.. but losing muscle tone and gaining fat…. as of christmas at 630pm I had one last piece of fudge.. been 100% clean with my eating since and intend on continuing to follow that with the exception of maybe a 2 hour block on sundays where I can eat a few things out of the ordinary.. I’m going to log my nutrition on fitday just because I HATE, and thats putting it mildly, counting calories and stuff like that.. don’t mind keeping track of protein and will endeavor to get in 1 gm per lb of body weight.. and just watch everything else.. lower the carbs as my body responds very well to that.  workouts so far are 4 out of the last 5 days the one being Christmas.. yep totally off that day. 

Workouts will consist of different splits til I find what works for me.. I get bored easy with upperbody and seems always switch to doing legs in the middle.. been blessed by a good friend Train C and he wrote up some programs for me which have proven 2 things.. I work better with someone elses program and my arms can be defeated without me getting bored.. Thanks Train C (as I sit here resting my arms on the table because of last nights workout.) Dont lift heavy at this time as I workout at home alone and value my straight teeth.. but at this time I think 70lb bench is good enough for me maybe as time goes this summer I’ll join a gym or pick up more plates for my bar. 

Everyone needs a goal to get to where they want to be.. something to look forward to.. My goal is to be in bodybuilding competition shape by spring of 09.. don’t know that I’ll take the stage but dammit want to look like I can.. and if I put my mind to it I know I can do it.. so here goes… 369 days of clean eating and working out hard.. only 355 days til I turn 40 and I want to be the best I have ever been when I turn 40.. Going to look at everything as positive as I can.. as I told someone earlier I left 230lbs of negativity when I left my ex.. dont need to let more in.. I’ve found so much positive support on this site its amazing.. how good of "friends" we can become through these screens.. Princess YOU ROCK!! your my inspiration girl.. when I think about not working out I’ll think how hard you are working toward your triathalon and know that for me to go lift is NOTHING compared to the workout your doing.. Thanks !!  

ok enough babbling.. Come back and visit I’m going to try to keep a little better dialog going here.. Have a Happy New year and everyone.. step up and lets lift!!
