Tom's On a Recomp

[jaim91]

Oh also I've decided to cut out diet pop from my diet and not take an energy drink everyday.

I guess I'll just have to tell Sarah and Marilyn at SND to cancel their order of SF pirhana for you lol

boo to cardio. I feel you about the whole getting back into it thing. I remember what it was like doing the biking/walking for the millenium challenge after not doing any in the summer and then the bulk

e-mail tonight. So glad you're going to take it easy!!

 

[Tom_B]

LOL well, it's mostly the diet pepsi I'm cutting out. I just mean I'm not going to have a SF energy drink EVERY day .. maybe 5 a week or something (lol so practicaly everyday..) But I drink 'Rockstars' now, not piranha's! Rockstar is the same price except it's double the size, and double the ingredients!

Did cardio again today, actually wasn't too bad. Heart heart got up to about 170, fuck was I ever sweating!

Last deload workout and MY CHEAT tomorrow!!! Then Saturday and Sunday will be completely rest days and I'll be back at it on Monday for another 6 weeks.

 

[Tom_B]

FUCK YES!! I GOT A DATE TO PROM WITH ONE OF IF NOT THE MOST HOTTEST GIRL AT OUR SCHOOL!!

 

[Double D]

Sweet got a good date that sounds awesome Tom.

Try and stay out of those other forums and stay out of nonsense topics like that. Just seems to lead to trouble. Besides dont let things like that get to you, hell you know who your friends are here and who isnt.

 

[Tom_B]

Yup here she is!! (the one with brown hair)



And thats a BAD picture of her! It doesn't even truly show how pretty and tall she really is (or how fucking huge her rack is!! haha)

And yup I'm staying out of there. LOL the one time I ever post outside of the journal/diet/training section that happens!! Just my luck hahah

 

[Double D]

If single ya I'd definitly tag it. Nice work!!

 

[Emma-Leigh]

Yup here she is!! (the one with brown hair)


And thats a BAD picture of her! It doesn't even truly show how pretty and tall she really is (or how fucking huge her rack is!! haha)

Oh... don't I feel good being one of the only females to be reading this thread now.... Cause, you know... judged on our racks and all... makes a girl feel special...

 

[jaim91]

Oh... don't I feel good being one of the only females to be reading this thread now.... Cause, you know... judged on our racks and all... makes a girl feel special...

well put

Even as straight females, both you and I know Emma how "prestigious" it is for a guy to go to the prom with a girl who has a "big rack". It's a status thing.

Note: I say this because I'm jealous of her

 

[BulkMeUp]

Nice prom date


Just keep the psychic out of it

 

[Tom_B]

LOL Emma and Jaime I knew you were going to say that!! hahaha
But hey, in the end I am a male, and what does a male like more than a nice rack? LOL
And really if you think about it, I'm promoting healthly body image by saying that. Nothing nicer than a women with some Curves on her! mmm Tyra Banks probably has the ideal body, she's perfect! She's not some bone thin model, she's got curves in all the right places, and she loves her food! And theres nothing hotter than a girl who can eat! hahaha
Seriously though I love Tyra, she has such smoking hot body and a great outlook on body image and I think it's amazing how she's battling the media on what 'beauty' is. Me and Kerry sometimes skip school and go to my house just to lay in my bed, spoon and watch Tyra. Her and Oprah are our role models! bahaha we bring them up every day whenever we get the chance, even during classes! LOL the teachers are always so confused and they're like ' What does Oprah have to do with this?' hahaha

And ya Adrian I'm going to try and keep the psychic out of it, LOL I already told her that we'll defiantly be getting on each other at the after parties and she was like ' YES! ... if you haven't noticed I've already checked you out 10 times since we started talking.' LOL

Really didn't do anything .. lazed around, rubbed my bloated belly, cleaned my room, showered, naped, then went out for a few..

 

[Tom_B]

Just a bit of progress pics ..
i've decided next week I'll do what I've been doing, with the one refeed. Then the week after that I'm going to experiment and try more frequent refeeds.. (3x a week) . See what happens and if I get leaner...

*I tried taking a pic out in the dining room but the lighting was all fucked. It was really washing me out, hell it doesn't even look like I'm tanned in that pic! I'm completely washed out..
Then I tried in my sisters room, but it was too dark.. and I didn't want to turn the light on considering she's sleeping in the bed behind me, and I didn't want to wake her... But these pics give a general idea of what I'm looking like (remember too I just had those cheats the last two days so I'm kinda softer than normal .. weighed myself today and I'm only .5lbs heavier than what I was so that's not too bad.)

 

[Double D]

My computer is so shitty I cant really see those pics, so sorry that I cant comment.

BTWdont you hate deloads!!! I feel so worthless that week.

 

[jaim91]

1) Your abs are friggin' awesome. The pictures aren't so close, so I can't see the detail, but I'm sure it's there. If/when mine are ready by summer, we're gonna STEAM UP the BJC!

2) "But hey, in the end I am a male, and what does a male like more than a nice rack?" --> Umm...I'm pretty sure there's at least one thing a gay male appreciates more than a nice rack. Hence the gay part, lol.

3) PROTEIN BARS!!!! WOOO! The allmax ones?? HELLS YA!

DoubleD - LOL dont' worry the actual pics are shitty. I don't know how to get good lighting, or resize them. But if you drag the mouse over the pics and click it should be able to zoom and enlarge the pics..
Actually I really liked the deload (never though I'd say that..) . Normally I HATE having to rest/deload .. but this time I really didn't mind it. I think my body really needed it, and I was actually considering taking one more complete day off tomorrow .. but then the urge to deadlift took over hahaha

Jaime - lol why thank you. It's so weird to be referred to as 'having abs' let alone 'awesome abs' .. I've never ever had anything close to abs in all my life .. I literally store all my fat in my stomach. I think I sent ya better quality pics in the e-mail since I was allowed a larger file size!
LOL yes you caught me .. there is something that I like more than a large rack And yup the protein bars were Allmax !! I think I had 5 or 6 in total lol. I still have an entire box in the freezer though! hahah

Pretty boring day .. kinda sat around all day .. literally. It was so weird not having anything to do , or homework to get caught up on or anything like that.. nice, but weird.
Then I had to work 6 hours, and now I'm at home and have been watching TV for the last little bit.

Workouts start up again tomorrow!!!!

Omg It's 12am and I just got in .. I was at a psychic .. so fucking freaky. You guys would have no idea how dead on she was with everything .. like it was insane. I can post some of the stuff she told me tomorrow if anyone would like to know, but at one point she started to shake and couldn't breath and had to stand up and get away from me .. she said I have HORRIBLE anxiety attacks, and I always worry over them, and that my heart starts racing and that I get light headed and dizzy .. she said either tomorrow or the day after I'm going to get a really really bad one and that I need to stay away from stairs. She said I'm going to be so dizzy but I don't need to panic I just need to go sit down, open a window and just focus on breathing..

But anyways I need to get to bed! I probably won't be going to school in the am tomorrow lol, but apparently I'm friggin not going to university is what she said .. she said I applied to 3 universities (which I did) and that I'll get accepted into 2 of them, (one of them being Ryerson!!) ..but I'm not going to go, and I'll be getting into fashion / modeling.. I'm actually kinda stressed that she said that.

 

[Emma-Leigh]

Damn tom-tom!! Your abs are REALLY dropping fat like crazy - YAY YOU!! Congratulations on the glute-ham raises too!!! YEEEEHAAAAA!!!

Sounds like things are going fantastically for you at the moment!! (eeples - with the exception of the 'probably panic attack' in a stairwell in a few days?! )


Hope you got some sleep!!!

Emma - Thanks you Emma! It's crazy the kind of results I'm seeing from this type of training I LOVE IT!!

Adrian - I told her nothing! It was crazy some of the things she knew .. that crazy. Like for instane, me and Kerry were planning on going up to Moncton this Weekend or next to sneak into Triangles (the gay bar), I was going to get plastered drunk and she would stay sober and drive us home in my car, even though she doesn't have her license (I let her drive me car all the time anyways, she's good). Well the physic goes ' You and a friend of yours ... a girl.. someone with naturally dark hair but it's blonde now (kerry's dyes her hair blonde) .. are planning to go to Moncton soon .. I'm only telling you this becuase it can prevented .. don't go. Theres going to be a crash, theres going to be drinking and driving, even one beer is too many!' And then she kept emphasizing how even one is too many, and how bad the crash will be .. like near death type thing .. And then she knew random stuff like how my mom always sleeps in my sisters beds with them and not my fathers, and she told me that I go on a type of forum online that has to do with bodies.. and people encouraging others to build there bodies and be healthy. Like she knew I came to IM .. theres was a bunch of other stuff too it was just fucked!

Okay super super tired .. didn't have that panick attack today lol, so we'll see tomorrow. Night!
