Ate whatever I wanted.

Slammed my thumb in my car door Friday night, the nail is all black and the tip of the thumb is all blue, gotta love it.

Legs are still a bit sore from Thursdays session!! gotta love it.

Gonna be starting football in a couple of weeks, actually had a practice on Sunday!!

Should be PULLing tonight.

Ya tiz me,

No I am not going to start another journal titled "My New Found Glory". My personal shiat is coming along real well now, for the most part, just in case ya'll wanted to know. Decided im gonna take everything out on the weights, lift HARD, get stronger, and shoot for the look that I want. This means I MUST get my diet in check as well. Although I am still hanging round 178-182lbs.

I will start off slow since my strength levels have dropped like a school gals panties on prom night. Understandable since I have been slacking for a couple months (or more) now.

Im outa here, this thing will be updated at least once per week regardless.

No lifting today, went out right after work and didnt get home till very late. Got a fuken speeding ticket on my way home, only my second since ive started driving. Fuken sucks though $124 i wasnt planning on spending.

The night went pretty good though, even though it had nothing to do with training!!

Diet was pretty good until hunger hit hard on my way home.

Have you started reading NHE again yet, Eric?

**ericg** · 09-25-2002 11:06 AM

Ya man, actually sifted through it a bit yesterday. Soon, very soon, I will be giving it a shot. Before long (before next summer) I will be one buff muda fuka!!

**The_Chicken_Daddy** · 09-25-2002 11:10 AM

Good good.

You don't need to read the whole book. Ignore the chapters on anti-aging and training/lifestyle.

Focus just on the middle section on the diet.

**ericg** · 09-25-2002 02:43 PM

ya, i figured that much out!! just gonna read the "cutting" diet section.

thanks for the posting bro, thought i was alone for a while, but you cant hide anyways, i know where you and Fran hang out!!

There's a section on ANTI-AGING?

Didnt lift today, my diet was awesome till I went out with some friends. Had some buffalo chicken wings (well chicken fingers), and some beer.

The night didnt go to well. My mind is all fuked up, people pulling me in different directions, it totally sucks. Thinking sucks, too many thoughts at once kill me. Just have take it out on the weights later. The end of the night went better though, sat outside and talked with one of my good friends until 2am. Was a good conversation

All of you that have kazaa, DL the song "Bother" by StoneSour, its great, and i can totally relate.

thanks for listening to me vent!

later

**ericg** · 09-26-2002 08:51 AM

9/26/2002

Rest day again, legs will be hit on Saturday! I am actually looking forward to the pain.

Went out for a while last night and had a decent time. Fun watching drunk people dance around and try to sing.

**RedCharm** · 09-28-2002 04:35 PM

Even though I think you look great now, you work hard and will achieve what you are looking for sooner then you think! Keep up the good work, chat at you later.

RedCharm-

Thanks

All this going out though may set me back some, I need to get that under control, or at least keep it clean. My weight hasnt changed since I have started back, still at a bit below 180lbs. Think i need to lose about 20lbs to be perfectly happy (6 pak).

Had a good weekend. Today I dint do too much. I had a football game in the morning then I went and watched my nephew play soccer in the afternoon. When I got home I watched the PATS get their arse handed to them!! Gotta love that, not to many New Englanders can say that, oh well.

Saw this kick arse band play on Saturday, they sound fuken awesome. Was lots of nice hair around too so that was cool.

Started to read NHE (Natural Hormonal Enhancement) again. I think I may start this up sooner then later. My workouts seem to be getting better (as I am getting back into the groove) so now I need the diet to be dead on if I want to reach my physique goals. I am not sure exactly how much I need to lose. I look decent now, but I want to get that 6 pak showing. I weigh 179lbs now, and I dont think my mind could handle going below 160lbs, hopefully I wont have to.

Well today was supposed to be PULL day. But i got home and ate, then fell asleep. No big deal, will just train Tues, Wed, and Saturday.

Been thinking hard about my diet lately, made one decision for this week: I am going to keep things clean Sunday through Friday evening. Then Friday night and all day Saturday will be cheat time. I am wondering if this will still alow me to lose the fat that I want to lose? I mean its better than cheating Wed, Thurs, Fri, Sat right!! Oh and I am also wondering if I should try a CKD and have the 36 hour carb up on friday and saturday? That would mean NO carbs for the remainder of the week though. So if any of you diet experts have any thoughts please let me know!!

Diet looked like this:

m1 = .5c oats, 1serv whey
m2 = .5c oats, 1can tuna
m3 = 1can tuna, forgot the walnut oil
m4 = 9oz of steak, green beans
m5 = 4 whole eggs, 1slice cheese
m6 = cashews
