[fatboystick]

Looking good bro. I am trying to figure out why my pics arent working at my log. I'll try to start doing some videos as well. Keep it up bro!

[tatteredsaint]

dude dieting is pretty much eating a lot of the same thing in general but in my experience it's the best way to have success at it , I get burnt out on chicken n broccoli but I swear 2 days after my cut ends and I've over done the bad foods I find myself eating it again

sometimes just a lil break will help...also, just adding something to it or cooking it different can help to.

diet

breakfast 1 cup egg whites/1 cup low fat cheese

snack- nothing

lunch- nothing

dinner- 6oz turkey smoked sausage and 6oz chicken breast

the dead lifts today wore me out.. the fact i finished my workout at all much less have a good day is pretty amazing.. but even though i did.. i felt sick all day i still dont think i have fully recovered from my workout.. really taxed my body today.. feels good but feels bad.. i could not make myself eat today

oh.. got a scale.. 231lb as of this morning.. i think i am doing more of a recomp than a cut.. my lifts are going up and weight isnt going down real quick so i wonder if i am making some lean muscle gains.. and that is why my weight number hasnt gone down as much ????? thoughts....
