    My Journey 16 Weeks

    Well Today I figured I would start an online BB journal because my road to gaining was a trip. My weight didnt change dramatically but results show. I noticed my shoulders and legs getting bigger and wider in a good way.

    My clothes fit differently, and the reactions from the gym were incredible.
    My fav comment of all time was "Damn, what happened to you?"

    I never really noticed much of a change, until my usual shirts were kind of grabbing at my lats and my top half. So I said, hmmmm I must be doing something right. I am pretty happy with what I gained. But now I feel its time to cut it up! LOL

    Im keeping the diet the same for the next two weeks, but gradually taking stuff out of it. And adding more cardio to the mix Ive been doing 2 days so 4-5 or maybe even 6 will make me crazy But we will see how it goes.

    So far I have eaten my breakfast which consisted of
    4 whites, 1 yolk, 4oz turkey and 1.2 cup Oats
    (2Packets splenda) & Salsa for whites
    No cheating for 2 weeks!!!!!!!!! Enjoyed myself yesterday at wrestlemania
    Corona's and Pizza Hut

    My Current workout schedule
    Mon Cardio (But today Cardio and Chest)
    Tues Shoulders, Abs, Cardio
    Wed Off
    Thurs Back & Chest
    Friday Legs & Cardio
    Sat Bi's & Tri's
    Sunday Abs & Cardio

    1360 is better! but still - how much do you weigh out of curiosity- just want to make sure that you will be getting enough!

    Thanks guys I get mixed up so much. I posted my clients diet instead.! I will repost. I am getting ready for the summer so its CRUNCH TIME! Time to get shredded, right Adolfo? LOL But im following a diet similar to a comp style diet. Its preparing me for one I plan to do around August/September. The people at my gym said I should do one. So I said Hey! Why Not!

    So im currently semi-training and preparing myself for the one im doing in a few months. This is my current diet. The one above is for a client..

    Meal #1

    4 egg whites, 1 yolk
    1/2 cup oats
    1/2 sc. protein

    Meal #2 (post workout)
    Protein Drink: 1 scoops, 1 tbsp. dextrose , if not mix in gatorade.

    Meal #3
    5 ounces chicken (weighed
    prior to cooking) 1/2 cup black beans or black eyed peas
    1 cup veggies

    Meal #4
    Protein Drink: 1 scoops,
    1/2 cup eggwhite
    2 tbsp. flax meal
    1 cup veggies

    Meal #5 – 4 eggwhite omlette with lots of omlette veggies, 1/4 cup cottage cheese, 1/2 tbsp. flax oil or 5 fish oil caps.

    or, 1 can tuna, 2 cups salad, 2 tbsp. cider vinegar for dressing with 1/2 tbsp. flax oil.

    I got two big dudes watching me close, 2 of my fellow trainers at my job! So I feel good along with the support of Adolfo and the Project Physique team as well as u guys here at IM....
    PS. Atherjen,They are amazing and watching me closely. They are like my big brothers. So they know when im getting outta hand!

    WOW!! I'm so impressed

    I don't care who is helping you - if you're cutting, or should I say "Shread", from 114 there will be nothing left of you but skin and bones.

    Hello Jeanice. I am a New Yorker as well, where do you live, and lift?

    Anyway, I am slightly confused by this journal. Either I am reading it wrong, or you go back and forth in different posts saying you are already cutting, or are just wrapping up bulking. So which is it?

    I am also confused as to whether you are or are not competing. First, you said you are not, then, you said you had one upcoming. Again, which is it? Ot are you undecided?

    Will this be your first comp? Maybe I missed it, but is this bodybuilding, fitness, or figure? Is it one in New York?

    Lastly, I was curious about this bulk of yours, which brought you out to a shirt-popping 114 pounds. What did you weigh before that, what was your bodyfat levels before and after, and what do you largely attribute your success to?

    Keep up the good work.
