How much do you think salt and sugar influence water retention? What is it that makes you drop all that water?

While sugar isn't directly responsible for water retention, glycogen is nothing more than bonded glucose and water molecules that get stored, so in that sense, sugars play a big role.
Just finished my last meal for the carb up day. 9oz Cajun seasoned tilapia fillet, then treated myself to a PB&J on my favorite bread, Innkeeper's 8 grain loaf. I figure that on my carb up days, I won't cheat or binge, but will relax my dieting and take more of an IIFYM'esque approach.

Day 8
*sigh*
So today started off kinda shitty... I track all my workouts using the notepad iPhone app. Opened it this morning and somehow, that particular 'note' got deleted. That's the entire phase 1 of my routine (2 weeks) with all of last weeks weights, sets and reps logged. I've run the routine enough to remember the exercises, but I was somewhat guessing on last week's weights and reps completed. Not the best way to start a Monday morning. Anyway, here we go:
Decline Dumbbell Press: 4x12 (found out after the fact it should have been 4x8... oh well)
Set 1: 110lbs x 12
Set 2: 100lbs x 10
Set 3: 95lbs x 10
Set 4: 90lbs x 11
So I screwed this one up, overshot my target reps by 4. With that said, I'm glad I was able to complete the first set for 12 reps seeing as 110lbs is what I was planning to use for 8... so I know I should be able to get 115lbs for 8, maybe even 120lbs.
Flat Dumbbell Fly: 4x6 (this also should have been 4x8)
Set 1: 60lbs x 6
Set 2: 60lbs x 6
Set 3: 60lbs x 6
Set 4: 60lbs x 6
Superset
Pullups: 3 x failure
Set 1: bodyweight x 10
Set 2: bodyweight x 9
Set 3: +20lbs weight assist x 10
Getting better 405!!
Decline Dumbbell Pullover: 3x12
Set 1: 100lbs x 12
Set 2: 100lbs x 11
Set 3: 90lbs x 12
Superset
Chin Ups: (close grip, v-bar attachment) 3x10
Sets 1-10: bodyweight x 10
Note: really emphasized the stretch at the bottom of this exercise, i.e. came to a full hang on each rep
One-Arm Dumbbell Rows: 3x12
Sets 1-3: 65lbs x 12
Note: absolutely couldn't remember what weight I worked with last week and played it (too) safe at 65lbs. Might have been 80lbs last week, still can't remember.
30 mins of cardio

GB i noticed the sushi is on the same kind of plate as the egg breakfast. Dont tell me u made the sushi!!?!!!?!! U bought it and just put it on the plate to take a pic right?
-
03-11-2013, 11:22 AM #256
lol, sort of. I do enjoy taking pics of food... after all, food is one of my hobbies, lol! But also, I hate eating the sushi off those little trays... I discard the ginger and like to mix the wasabi into the soy sauce right in the middle of my plate and then just eat em' all together.
-
03-11-2013, 11:29 AM #257
^^ yeh i dont usually use the ginger but do sometimes. I fill a little cup with soy (low sodium) and then add a generous portion of wasabi and stir it in, then i drop my sushi in the soy and let it sit and then flip it over and do it again. Thrn i eat it! Mmmmmmmmm. M
I mite have to have some sushi here soon! It is expensive to fill meup on it though. Usually 40-60bucks just for mine.

Thx brother. I'm only eating it 2 days a week to keep from getting sick of it. On the days I'm not eating it, I'm having a top sirloin later in the day as I like to have 1 beef meal/day.
Today, instead of the pasta dish - 9oz rotisserie chicken and a PB&J sandwich on my favorite bread. IIFYM bitches, bahahaha!!

Sure as hell does come around fast!!
This past Sunday (re-feed), I stuck to a 'clean' diet plan, but am now planning to go with an IIFYM-esque approach moving forward on those days. It's the one day where I can be more relaxed with my diet due to higher caloric intake.
