Since its a brand new year, I decided to start a new journal.
The name "recomposition" is going to signify my body recomposition. I am right around 228-232 lbs. now, and holding some flab. I am aiming for 215-220 lbs. and a bit leaner. So we'll see what happens. I am going to be keeping all of my meals, my sleep, and my training all in this journal. I am going to be talking about my supplements as well. But more focus is going to go on the basics---my training and eating. If I binge, of course, I am going to post it. If I get wasted, I am going to post it. I am not going to leave anything out of this one guys. Wish me luck guys! Last edited by M.J.H. : 01-05-2005 at 12:28 AM. |

Is 2005 reffering to the New year or the number of IM journals you have started??
good luck ![]() |

That was funny Patrick
![]() Mike- Hey seriously, a new year does call for a new journal! You've been doing great sticking with your last journal, let's see this one last the year ![]() |

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

You'll get to your target weight in no time. Once you get into the swing of things, it will become easier.
Good job on keeping that last journal too. This one was created with a new purpose in mind, not because of binging. I deem that a success. |

Patrick: No, but like you said, 2005 for the new year, lol.
![]() rock: Thanks for the support man, I am going to keep this journal for all of 2005. Just wait and see. I think that I have gotten past the whole creating new journals every time I turn around thing. Which is obviously a step in the right direction. Jake: LOL. ![]() I'm Trying: This is going to be my last journal until 2006. That's my goal. CowPimp: Thanks for the positive support man, I really appreciate that. I am really focusing on getting into the swing of things. Keeping empty calories like sugar and alcohol out of my diet. I am not being extremely strict with my diet, as long I keep my empty calories to a minimum. ![]() Last edited by M.J.H. : 01-05-2005 at 08:16 AM. |

dj_diablo: Thanks for stopping by bud, I appreciate the positive support. My weights are okay now I guess, nothing like they were in the past. I have been concentrating a lot on my form, and making sure I use a complete ROM, and don't use any momentum in the gym. I get tired of seeing guys throwing the weights around, so I want to make sure I am not one of them.

yellowmoomba: Thanks man, I am actually trying to bring up my lats, as usual. Even though I don't think that they're necessarily a weakpoint in my physique, I would like to have much bigger more developed lats.
tenxyearsxgone: I deadlift on leg day, bud. Thanks for stopping by. ![]() Arnie's left nu: Thanks for the support man, I appreciate it. Happy new year to you too, hopefully you achieve all of your goals this year. simbh: Yeah I really hope that 2005 goes better too, bro. Like you said in terms of the # of journals that I have, and keeping my diet clean. Thanks for stopping by. |

Jake: Actually every now and then Jen will text message my cell phone just to see how I am doing. I haven't heard from Andrea in the longest time. It's been months and months and months since I have heard from her. It's a shame they used to be such regulars at IM.
JerseyDevil: Thanks for stopping by man, I appreciate it. I really need to work on cleaning up my diet big time. Tonight I binged like some stupid a*s. I don't know what the f*ck I was thinking. Ate like an entire 1/2 of an ice-cream cake. ![]() sara: Thanks for the support! |

Yo Star.....
What's doing bud? I am back again after a hiatus because of my near screw-up with my rotator (therapist said I could train again, so, here I go...). Man, as usual, I wish you for nothing but the best in your quest to meet your ultimate goals. I'll be sitting back and watching you succeed.... |

dj_diablo: Thanks for the support man, I really appreciate that. My biggest downfall is definitely just the fact that my diet needs some serious work. Last night I pigged out on an entire 1/2 of an ice-cream cake. Talk about ridiculous. I feel so out of control sometimes with my diet. Drives me crazy.
Tony: Thanks for stopping by bud! I haven't seen you in a while. Sorry to hear about your rotator cuff. Hope that everything turns out okay. My training has been pretty good lately I guess, my diet is my downfall, though. I have been posting my binges here in my journal and its absolutely killing me. I am so used to just starting a new journal when I binge. |

Regarding your binging, don't sweat the little things. I don't know if this will work, but right before you eat that next spoonfull of ice cream cake, or the sort, the first thought that will come to your head is: "Do I want to screw up all the work that I have done to get to where I am?". Also, think back to all the work that you have done which you are going to basically piss on when you binge. Look at yourself in my image and see if you like it, because the truth is that I once weighed 195 pounds of lean muscle, then I pissed on all the hard work and now I have become Shamu, or whatever that Orca is called...... Think of what today is and what tomorrow could be if you are not careful. Always keep the firm belief that you can overcome any obstacle that you place in your way, basically because you were the one that placed it there to begin with... I hope this makes sense and helps you in any way... As I said before, I am here for you (more now than the last couple of months) and will be enjoying your success from afar.... |
