Thats what I mean. I felt a little hungry but thought I ate more then I really did. Plus I went to bed a little early. Is this bad??

I guess that didn't make you feel better ?

 

[aggies1ut]

Yeah, Taco Bell was in sight and I did it on a whim. I need to eat alittle better though. Feel free to stop by and chime in anytime Aggie
Are you still living up in the same area??
Thanks!!

P.S. Your bro has a good name

I live in El Dorado Hills. I forget where you are though.

I think your cals are low because you need to eat more at each meal with a proper ratio of C/F/P and spend more time pre-cooking and packing your food. Do you work swing shift? This might also be messing up your eating schedule because your sleep pattern is different. Try to get into a routine if you can.

You might want to add fish oil caps. Pb is also good at your last meal.

I work graveyard. My sleep pattern is always changing on my schedule at the end of the week going from a graveyard schedule to a normal schedule. Been doing this for over a year now.
I notice though with lack of appitite comes lack of energy that hit me today when I was working out. I guess I need to force feed myself. I guess I'm too worried about cutting and thus might be doing some damage.
Thanks

Workouts looking good Matt. How do you like the commercial version of Fitday? Is it worth $20 over the free online version?

JD,
I like it alot better. Especially when I had dial up. I now have DSL so it doesn't matter, but it has alot more functions on it that I like atleast. I think its worth the dough.
Thanks!!
P.S. How are you doing??

 

[Rocco32]

Nice w/o buddy! Why are you switching up the BB Curl to the EZ bar curl for? Looks like your numbers are steadily going up (and reps)

I'm going to see if its more comfortable. I don't feel like I'm getting what I should out of the straight bar for some reason. We'll see how that goes. If not any better then back to the straight.
Thanks!!
