My workouts have been the same. That is, I have been working out pretty hard but nothing special. My plans to increase cardio have not come through yet b/c of my schedule, but I still intend to do that.

My strength is not great and when it comes to chest, poor. The combination of calorie deficit and a lingering shoulder injury holding me back.

Weekend:

Meals: My meals Saturday and Sunday were just as always. The only difference was Saturday night. We went to a party and a had a few beers and the diet was not fantastic, though not terrible. In order to not drink too much beer, I drank a good bit of diet Coke. I could carry that around and it would be assumed it was a mixed drink and I would not have to answer the "What's your problem?" question over and over. The sodium tooks it toll on my weight.

I weighed in at 292.4 lbs on both Sunday and again this morning. I was a tad disappointed today's weight was not better because my diet was very tight yesterday.

There was one somewhat interesting development in the Rebirth test. At the party Saturday night (which turned out to have a bunch of swingers, which made it interesting) my wife asked me about the "new stuff" I am taking. I expliained that I was testing a new product and what it was designed to do. She said she was asking b/c she said "you are definitely looking more cut."

She is so convinced that it is working for me that she wants to take it. I am trying to order some now so that I will have enough to share with her and complete the test.

She was pretty much in the dark about all of this, so I would have to say that this was pretty substantial evidence that Rebirth is working for me. I intended to take photos and measurements yesterday, but duty called.

OK...i realize the journal has sucked the last day or so. I just had to fire a guy:
  • he is a friend
  • his wife used to babysit for us
  • his father in law sits on boards/committees with me and is a friend and a client as well
  • his wife does not work so they have no income now

I am not a stress eater, but today was just not the day to diet. My partners and I had meetings all day and went to eat together, today was not the day to be a dick about where we ate. Not complete disaster, but not a good day dietings.

Suffice to say, we are testing the product ability to handle increased calories today!

We get hard-core tomorrow!

Geez... calling that a "stressfull day" is an understatement. I hope things work out personally between you and that guy.

Also: If you turn into a real glutton, double dosing the sesathin is apparently a very good way to keep all those extra cals from turning into fat.

OK...hard-core as promised today...here are my meals for the day.[list=1][*]Rebirth + 2 whole eggs + 3 egg whites scrambled (thanks honey!) + 1 scoop pro-complex (1/2 serving)[*]LC Lean Body + Sesathin[*]Rebirth + LC Lean Body[*]100% Whey shake[*]Rebirth + Pro Complex Shake[*]Pro Complex PM shake + Sesathin[/list=1]

Will take some fish oil to give me some added fat with each shake.

This will give me totals for the day of:
Cals: 1375
P: 68.2
F: 31
C: 38

A bit extreme but I will only do this one day to pay for past sins then get back in the 2000/day range.

OK, I didn't quit make it on this plan. Meal five became a spinach salad with a little chicken and a little shrimp. Not to bad, but I didn't log it, so the totals are off a bit.

Wake up Weight 5/6: 290.4

Personally, I think such extreme days every now and again are optimal for folks like you and I.
