    Day 23

    Off today. Woke up a lb lighter. Even though weight fluctuates a lot. I know I have not hit my cals last couple days so I need to get on that.

    Took bike in for service and had breakfast at a diner while I waited.

    Nice egg white omelet with chicken breast, avocado, and tomato. Pretty damn good. Multi grain toast and home fried potatoes for carbs. guess that's my cheat meal.

    Came home and just ate 1.5 batches of protein blueberry pancakes.

    I was hoping this was normal on cycle cause I thought I hit them hard enough.

    Day 25 Weight 216.4lbs

    OK so I lost another .6lbs over the weekend. I do not think I ever lost weight over the weekend when cutting. I hit my cals/macros right as planned. Think I may need to up the calories this week.
    May need to get creative with some foods. Maybe add natural PB. I am open to suggestions.

    Been weighing in every morning same time as soon as I get out of bed after bathroom.

    As of today progress is gain 12.4lbs (I believe about 8-10lbs was within a couple days probably water)

    Measuring waist every week and so far it has been constant.

    I am aware weight fluctuates with water retention, salt intake, etc. Will monitor a few more days and increase calories if needed.

    Johnny B the man! Feeling good. Actually think I am looking better. Since I lost 80lbs I had a lot of loose skin mostly in midsection but even arms and legs. Starting to fill out nice. I do not think I would ever look good at lower weight.

    Cycle going well bro. No major superman moment but strength increasing, muscles are harder than ever, and I am ripping through every workout!

    Weight gain is still around 14lbs no change this week. Friday I may up cals a bit.

    Eating is fantastic. I am never hungry. 100% clean so its a lot of food!

    I will post some pics in a few more weeks.

    Thanks for checking in bud.

    Yea I plan to take some to work. I cut it into large chunks (About 4-5) and nuked for 5 mins. It was a bit under done but I ate it any way.
    Probably depends on microwave so you may have to do some tests.

    Its going too fast. I am really enjoying the workouts.

    I woke up today 216.7lbs up 12.7lbs. I am pretty sure that at least 5lbs is due to creatine and another 5lbs water since this weight came on fast. i will be monitoring closely now to make sure weight keeps rising adjusting diet as needed.
