    Well, weight is up another pound, at 187lbs. I feel stronger and can see some definition in my shoulders. I still need to kick up the cardio, no excuses here, just need to do it!

    Did chest, shoulders, tris, and calves. Definitely felt stronger after a day of rest. I foamed rolled for a while and will prob start doing yoga now that there isn't anymore MNF! And I think there is a new Sunday class, yoga pants here I come!

    Might right leg seems to be getting worse but my left one is getting better. It as if my legs swapped places! Still making some progress in regards to the knots, and I have someone coming rub me down tonight.

    I started Paleo 3 weeks ago. It's extremely restrictive ( and I do cheat one a week) but noticing my stomach is flatter. Moving into fat burning from carb burning. It looks to be working. .

    are you eating lots of greens? With that diet you don't really eat many carbs right?

    that's why you have to change that calorie intake every 6 weeks or so. Move the cals up maybe carb cycle cut carbs add fats you have to just keep throwing a wrench into your metabolism cause it's going to adjust and 1,800 calories isn't going to cut it for long

    Yeah, I have been tinkering with carb cycling but never put forth enough effort in the past.

    May try cutting carbs out or just having some for breakfast (keeping them low). I love carbs!

    Wish these damn knots were gone, I want to run again!

    I like to change them every 4-6 weeks to keep your body guessing. Even if you only change them for a week or 2 it throws a wrench into your metabolism.

    it sounds like you are a bit carb sensitive right? Do you eat any fruit in your meal plan? Even just manipulating the carbs your eating at different times can make a difference. When are you eating carbs now?

    Yes I believe I am carb sensitive.

    Fruit is Minimal. Normally after lunch. Most of my carbs are in cabbage, kale and spring lettuce.

    those are not real carbs. Those don't even count cause it take more fuel for your body to digest those carbs then what is in them. Don't get me wrong you need those greens though. Do you eat any complex carbs at all? Sweet potato, brown rice, oatmeal etc?

    Not for the last 3 weeks. I can't eat grains on Paleo. Sweet potato is permitted but I haven't eaten since started. I did make spaghetti squash one week.

    I have a black one that has knobs. It helps but my legs seems to just go back to being knotted.

    I need a live in masseuse or woman that likes to rub and inflict pain!

    I believe I am carb sensitive and/or insulin resistance.

    I also need to go get my damn hormones checked! Last doctor told me I was fine and that at 33, I did not need to check my hormones because I wasn't have any erection issues. Still looking around a good doctor. Need to look into those Lab places and just pay for it. Work always gets in the way!

    I eat 1/2 avocado with 2 eggs for breakfast. I have some raw almonds for a snack. Very little fat in evening.

    I eat 3 meals and a protein shake before I go to bed.
