Knocked out 30 minutes on the athletic bike and played bball for probably 3 hours this weekend. I was gonna lift today but Im gonna wait to do it tomorrow, I'll have more energy. Diet hasn't been completely clean but I didn't completely cheat.

How much longer till you graduate?
I don't have the injuries to the delts as you have, but I also have to be careful w/ mine...usually do either DB presses or a cybex machine...bb presses would wreak havoc on mine...

Did 30 minutes of cardio yesterday. Watched UFC 74, had a good day. Today was just some stretching. Got some Red Acid from controlled labs, its a stimulant free, "fat burner". I think its more of a hunger suppressant but Im gonna give it a try to help limit my carb uptake since Im pretty carb sensitive.

Haven't checked in on this but Ive been pretty hectic with 19 credits and 20-30 hours working. My training has been great but weights have kinda been stagnant. I'm weighing around 243. Ive found to keep losing the weight I should keep carbs under 100 grams. Anyway Im try to keep posting again and spend less time in open chat or looking at pron.

Im bad at keeping up at journals but think this is my turning point, I basically gained back all my weight and alittle some. Ive examined my journal and eating habits and they are bad and not constant. So Im basically making a goal to be in shape to start training bjj in January. It always wanted to do but never had the opportunity or been in shape to do so. I'm sticking to one routine until at least January. Diet has and always has been the hardest part. I usually go so clean that I end up binging. Today I ate so much pure junk, I look at myself and it makes me sick. It reminds me of when I was 13 weighing 270 pounds. I thought I never would get like that but I certainly have, Ive let complacency and laziness overcome me.

My training routine will be based on the Westside for Skinny Bastards Part 3.

Much more to come....

Good to hear you are getting back in the saddle. I stopped lifting and eating right for most of this summer, and my strength and weight all went to crap.
