Rain ruined it. Didn't feel like doing anything today so yea... you can tell by what I wrote down. Not much. Didn't eat junk though so I'm happy! Forgot to weigh myself in the morning... probably still around 185lb. Will work harder tomorrow!

Weighed 185lb this morning. I guess 185lb is my regular weight now since my water weight is gone. Hoping to drop to 183lb legitly this week. Gotta eat healthy without any junk! I'm striving for no cheat meal this week. My knee pain is back... I feel like I'm running too much. I should slow down on the running and try more Circuit training.

My shoulder pain is still there... I guess I gotta just wait it out? I'll have to check it out later. Didn't feel that great working out today because I didn't get to do my usual amount. Felt like I could do more, but didn't want to hurt myself by overdoing it. I weighed 184.5 today... felt great in the morning. I didn't run today because my legs are way too sore, and kind of got lazy as well xD I'll make it up tomorrow!

03/14/12 Day 3:Wednesday

9:00 - Went for a morning jog, about 20 min

9:45 - Breakfast: turkey ham omelette, 2 toasts, 1 apple

8:00 - Dinner: Naked Juice, turkey ham sandwich (peanut butter and lettuce), 1 banana

12:00 - Casein shake (1 scoop + water)

Visited UCSD today and walked A LOT. I felt pretty tired before I ate my first snack, which probably means I didn't eat enough in the morning. My eating schedule got jacked up because of the visit. Will work on eating a bit more throughout this week and gradually cut down. Weighed myself this morning and I was 186lb which is good. Hopefully I'll gain a bit of weight before I actually start cutting down actual fat because gaining muscle=natural fat destroyer.

03/13/12 Day 2: Tuesday

9:00 - Went for a morning jog, about 20min.

9:45 - Breakfast: 2 100% whole wheat toasts, 1 apple, and turkey ham egg omelette.

12:40 - Snack: 1 protein shake (1 scoop + water), 1 apple, a few sips from 30g protein naked juice.

2:30 - Pre-workout: granola bar.

3:00 - Went to workout, but wasn't really a workout. Fooled around with friends a bit. Kinda proud that I was still able to max 315lb on bench press. Tried to do 405lb on assisted incline bench press... but miserably failed haha.

3:50 - Lunch: 1 chicken Leg, and a bowl of salad.

4:40 - Felt like eating half of a chicken sandwich (avocado, 100% whole wheat bread, lettuce, tapatio).

5:10 - Finished the rest of the sandwich.

7:00 - Went to go do some actual workouts. Worked on Shoulders and Biceps.

Shoulders/Biceps Workout

1. This is kind of hard to explain... did supersets. 3 rounds of 3 workouts: 4 sets of Shoulder Press, 4 sets of Front Barbell Raises, and 4 sets of Bent Over Reverse Flys. Rest 10 sec each set, 1 min between each workout, and 1 min between each round. The reps should decrease with each set, so 12, 10, 8, 6.
2. Over the Head Cable Bicep Curls - 5x10 with 50lb.
3. Hammer Curls superset - 3x8 on each arm with 25lb and no rest.
4. Regular Curls superset - 3x8 on each arm with 25lb and no rest.

I was so tired from working out earlier, so I couldn't do as much as I did last time.

8:50 - Post-workout Meal: 1 turkey ham egg burrito, 1 protein shake (1 scoop + milk).

11:10 - Went for a night jog, about 20 min.

11:45 - Post-jog Snack: 1 Casein shake (1 scoop + water)

That's about it for today... I weighed 185lb in the morning. Dropping 3 lb in 1 day isn't good, but I'm guessing it's all water weight. I'm not too worried about it. My knee pain went away. I guess it was from doing squats? But my shoulder feels a bit weird and its probably due to maxing out today. I should probably be careful with using my shoulders. I didn't really get to eat a legit dinner today because of my messed schedule. I'll try better tomorrow!

Hmm... that's about it for my day as far as my diet goes. I feel some minor pain on my left knee, I better watch out and pay close attention. I'll see what happens next week with my knee. Hopefully it'll get better.
Oh! and btw, I weighed myself in the morning and I was 188lb. My ultimate goal is to drop to 175lb permanently in a healthy way, not the way I used to where I lost like 30 lbs in 2 weeks and gained it all back in a short while.
