Livingloca’s Hot Bodyblog

Well, i have been working so hard these last weeks….. i realized that i finally have overcome the "diet mentality" which i have done since i could remember…. which is the idea of "i’m on a diet; off my diet, etc).  Yay!!!!!!  Its something women do, for those of you guys that don’t know what i am talking about.  Its the guilt that you get for "going off your diet"……. whatever that means.  I now eat clean and if i have a treat, i get over it and move on with my clean eating. No more guilt.  No more worrying about what i just ate.  In fact, the problem these days is whether I am eating enough!

 I have buckled down and realize that i am not eating enough protein.  For all the liftiing and cardio i do 6 days a week, you would have thought i would weigh 90 pounds.  Something is not working…….. and it must be that i’m not getting enough protein bc my eating is great and i don’t eat sweets anymore (another yay!!!)  So I packed on the protein yesterday, ate alot more food than i usually do, and this morning I somehow "feel" slimmer.  So, i’m trying to go on a cutting diet.  Does everyone cheat (besides their given cheat day) while cutting or is everyone super-duper strict and stay on it completely? 

I have gotten over jumping on the scale.  Kiss that baby goodbye.  I have been cruising through my sizes and am a size 4 (from being a size and am touching on size 2s.  Not my goal, exactly, but it feels good to make that progress. 

A personal trainer girlfriend of mine and I are going to a bodybuilding/fitness/model competition in early August.  Our first and hope to simply get some new inspiration to push my workouts even more.  Should be fun!
