FUCK SALADS

I fucking hate salads.
I hate it.
But when I'm hungry as hell, DAMN THAT SALAD TASTES GOOD!!

I think it's some sick twisted way that our brain gets you to love stupid shit.
Every logic and rationale in my body says salads SUCK.
but after a few days of being hungry and salads satiating my hunger, I love the leafy goodness.

salads, it's a love hate relationship.

(I'm talking about that leafy crap, not like the fancy "mediterranean olive salad" or "tomato basil freshm mazzarella salad" or any pasta salad, because we all know that shit is goooooooood)

Self Segregation in the Gym

There's a shit ton more women doing Cardio than Men.
There's a shit ton more men doing Weight Training than Women.
There's a shit ton more women doing those classes than Men.

IS IT as simple as THIS!?:
Men want muscles.
Women want to lose fat.

Here's my thought:
Men want commoradorie and use weight lifting as a social time to bond with other men. Why not gather around a grunting activity?
Women enjoy the solace, independence, and mental rejuvination that a cardio exercise gives.

I like both. I must be a tranny.

Two Weeks

I went away for work for a week and then away on vacation for an additional week. Since I couldn't exercise anyway aaaaand it was vacation, I just said what the heck, let's EAT LIKE A SONNOVABITCH. I stuffed my face with pizza in a drunken state, gorged on fried fish, tacos of all kinds, burritos, chorizos and the all mighty churro! Ice Cream, Chocolate Mouse Cake, Coca Cola! Cookies, fresh and bagged. Twix, twix, and oh how I love twix. Porterhouse, half a chicken, carne asada, eggrolls, korean bbq, frozen yogurt!

I didn't eat ANY of this stuff while I was exercising and eating healthy.

FUCK IT WAS DAMN GOOD.

and so I gained seven pounds. back up to 200. That's not bad, but I think I lost muscle mass too. I can still do 120 crunches on that ab thing at the gym, but it hurt like hell. I can still run 2 miles comfortably. time to get back on the plan. I turn 29 in a month and a half, maybe I can get down to the weight I was at TWELVE years ago! holy shit i'm old.

plenty of sleep + no food + exercise at night= cramps and sleepy
little sleep + food two hours prior + exercise at night = cramps, feel like throwing up, and sleepy
little sleep + food four hours prior + exercise at night = headache and sleepy


Plenty of sleep + food four hours prior + exercise in the afternoon= optimum

Three weeks

One Week I was sick - so I ate a TON of food to get better, from chicken soup to hearty meals.
Second week I got better and I was back to exercising
Third week I had to go away on business and ate a TON again just because I was at home and with friends. lots of drinks, lots of late night food.

I'm back home now and I weigh the same as before the sickness, no more, no less. all that food I ate didn't go anywhere!?

I weighed myself on my mom's scale. I was at 196.5 with 20% bodyfat. I'm in the HEALTHY category now apparently. I skipped "Overweight" from the last time I was on that scale. I went from Obese to borderline healthy in two months. Way to go Ko! so now I have 39.3 lbs of fat.

It is interesting to note that the weight loss from the last time I was on this scale in early July has all been fat loss.

0% bodyfat is 157.2 (I'd be dead).
3% bodyfat is ~163 lbs (Very very very fit wrestlers)
7.5% bodyfat is 170 (highschool weight)
13% bodyfat is 180 (college freshman weight)

FUCK YOU THROAT INFECTION. I've conquered you. Now it's back to exercise, eating right and not a whole lot of social life.

sleep is important

People are already asking me 'How did you do it?'. I'm only halfway to my goal but I guess thirty pounds is good enough for a positive response. I used to be more humble about it, saying "oh, it was just eating right and exercise". I've decided to be more honest recently with a response of "I ate nothing but good healthy shit. Shit, did not touch this tongue the entire time. AND I worked out every single fucking day for two to three hours sacrificing dates, social life, parties, and personal hobbies, sometimes til 2AM if needed".

THIS as it turns out GOT ME SICK. the doctor said it was strain and my immune system went down. This week I exercised as intensely but added social time and personal projects back into my life sacrificing sleep. This destroyed my immune system and made me get a throat infection.
