Well I have picked next Wednesday as measurement and weigh day along current pic day. I have upped my calorie and protein plus I assume a little fat, via 2 more shakes a day.

My current numbers are these:

240 protein

95 fat

3220 calories.

I also am kinda pissed I had 7 drinks tonight,(over a 3 hours) 3 more drinks than I wanted to do but I am still cutting one day a week less with the guys on the drinking than I was doing.

Should i do any cardio at all?

Also let me know on the diet, does that look better?

I am only taking creatine and protein shakes for now with of course a multi-vitamin.

Damn I am pumped, my program has been going great. I truly think if you set goals(ones that are written down) it makes it a whole lot easier to get the motivation to met them.

Will post current pictures and extra info tomorrow, I am only a little over two weeks into it but feeling great.


Earth out....

Anyways I feel like I am making great progress for me, and can really see the need to follow the diet CLOSELY, that will be my hardest area to control/combat. I decide to take some measurements using my MYOTAPE

Weight is up by 1.5lbs(162), maybe two lbs it has been fluctuating.

That myotape looks cool. I gotta get one. My wife takes my measurements, & she's not consistent with pressure, etc.
Lookin pretty good. Diets are tough to stick to, but I'm goin the other way.
Good luck.

The tape is kickin, only think I have to to is put it away cause if its out I grab it and measure. Sometimes 2-3 times a day cause you never know when and extra 1/2" is gonna pop out LOL.

Sure, you can do some incline walking... LOW intensity cardio if you want (30 minutes 2-3 times a week)

Your body will let you know how it likes the diet
IMO That is ALOT of calories for someone that looks to be semi mesomorph.. If you start storing fat, you'll notice it and cut back... otherwise, enjoy the eating and roll with it.

Keep tracking, keep lifting
