where are your calories at right now?
I still haven't figured out my macro's or total cal's or have a consistent diet as far as those things go.
It should also be noted that I have not lifted weights in 3 months. Unfortunately after hitting a low of 238 very quickly I upped my weight by binging on brilla pasta (protein enriched) mixed with chicken b/c my wife cooked like a an lb or 2 of it. It's one of my devils foods. I asked her from now on to only cook 1-2 servings at a time. I also chowed down on some protein bars on that day and one other day so as of tonight my weight increased to 244lbs.
Needless to say I am quite displeased.
As a result of that I have decided to add clen into my mix along with another lypo burning agent. I am anxiously waiting my written results of my bloodwork to see if I feel comfortable starting with the var before getting my lipitor from my overseas pharmacist b/c I want to up the dose but don't want to burn muscle. It seemed to me my bicepts were a little softer/weaker yesterday and that worries me so I want to get var into the mix to stop any muscle burning that may be happening.
On a positive note I made it through another weekend when I am surrounded by free garbage food and ate skinless chicken sandwhiches on ezekiel bread and natty pb.
It was a minor setback and I plan to redouble my efforts to get back on track. I plan to begin weight training tomorrow or tuesday to burn extra cals and prime my muscles as they haven't been worked.
I've got tons of energy from all the supps I'm taking but still need to take it slow with the weights until I get back into the swing of things. Looking at my enlarged stomach with the extra 6lbs I recently regained is making me sick (2 parties I went to as well with lots of social pressure to eat to be polite to the hosts over the past 4 days as well).
Even if my lipid profile isn't great I might start 13mg of var 2x/day just so I can up the T3. The clen should get to me within a week as well as the other product I ordered.
I know it's all diet but i have my wife working against me now b/c she's stopped going to the gym and knows my triggers and I think at least unconsciously she doesn't want me to get ripped due to jealousy of other chicks being into my bod if I accomplish what I intend to.
So a short term (less than a week) setback.
I want to save posting pics until I'm all wrapped up with the cycle plus pct for maximum effect. Again, my main focus is my mid section, I don't expect to gain much muscle in my upper body, etc.. but am looking to get trim as possible as a good jumping off point to build from. This will improve my health a lot, my self esteem, and I can lean bulk from there.
What do you guys do when your at a party and ppl are pushing food at you? My wife is Braziiian and the culture is such that people get insulted if you don't eat their food. Ultimately I have no one to blame but myself though.
I think I can drop 25 from my start weight and start to show some abs... but I gotta start working them with weights. This afternoon (unless i am dead, I need to getup for work in 2 hrs and have not slept yet fretting about my setback and trying to sort out a plan to move on from here so that might have to wait until tomorrow.
But I don't want to risk my health and I"m not going to see my lipitor for another month. bla, the downside of having an intl pharmacist.
I think i just need to be more vocal and firm about what I am doing, thank people for their food offers at parties (lots of brazilian family oriented parties) because my health comes first. I can't help it if they get a little insulted.
goodnight, hope the 2 hrs or less gets me through the day tomorrow lol.
And I need to pick up those wieghts, espeically for my abs.
Thanks for the support bro. I know it's the right thing for me. I did turn down desert but ate some stuff with mayo in it on both days and one day ate white rice. Both days I had larger servings of food than I ever make for myself. I did turn down the desert at least.
My wife is really kind of sabotaging my food plan a bit now, cooking 1-2 lbs of pasta (I told her to cook some pasta but with lots of chicken and garlick, and a little extra virgin olive oil, not too much pasta) is like waving a pizza under my nose.
Pasta is one of the 2-3 foods that put me at 295lbs where I was last summer. 7pm large serving of pasta for dinner and then another large serving at 11pm for example (smothered in tomato sauce from a jar) was something I ate like 4x/week.
So I hit a road bump and ultimately need to take 100% responsiblity for it myself. No one held a gun to my head. When I saw those 2 big tupperware bins filled with pasta and shredded chicken I should have picked out the chicken and threw 90% of the pasta in the trash!

Not to come down on you but your the only one to blame. Not your wife, friends or family. Do they physically put this food in your mouth and make you chew it ? Nope.
Your the only one holding yourself back.
Now break out your little DSM love doll and get your @$$ back in the game !
I'm back in the game bro! Thanks again for the support and I agree with you 100%. Maybe I cursed myself when I took my DSM doll off my neck (he's on a string necklace) and left him in my car when I went into my dr's office last Tuesday. I was concerned he might think I was wierd so just didn't want to deal with the issue of anwering any questions about it.
When I was putting the hole in it's head and putting it on a string necklace my wife told me "your scaring me a little bit, that's not normal" She told me that a few times lol
