I hope everyone had a great weekend. Mine was kind of crazy. Saturdat night we had a fishing tournament. It was an all nighter with totally threw me off with both sleep and food. I fell short on calories both days because of it. Back on track today though!

Tip 17 of 25

Learn how to be a great planner. If you’re always running around like a chicken with your head cut off and waiting until the last minute to do everything, you will eventually be forced into making bad food choices. Try to plan all your meals in advance for the day. Add all the food to your food journal BEFORE you even eat it. Plan. Plan. Plan. Then plan some more for what you are going to do when your plans unexpectedly fall apart! The more structured and calculated you can make your life the more successful you will be with your health.

Tip 16 of 26

Remember that everyone is different when it comes to diet and exercise. What works for one person may not work for you. Experiment with your macros and calorie intake. See what happens if you add 100 calories a day for a week. Sometimes adding calories actually induces weight loss if you are deep into a caloric deficit. Don’t be afraid of eating if you’re making wise food choices. Strive to achieve “complete control” of your food intake and learn how your body reacts to different foods, macros, exercises and whatever else you can think of. There are no hard and fast rules to weight loss and great health. You make them up as you go.

173.6, up .2 lbs
104 blood sugar
115/70 blood pressure
70 pulse
Body fat caliper 12mm, 22mm, 7mm = 13%, down 1%

Average calories for the last 7 days, 2839. I went over my target of 2800 and gained only .2 lbs. I am trying to add mass still so it looks like I need a few more calories to add half a pound a week. I am going to raise my calories for next week to 2900 and see where that gets me.

Everything is going well. Workouts going great on my new GreySkull program. I squatted a new personal best this week. It's not a lot of weight but its an accomplishment for me. On my last set I was able to lift 165 for nine reps. I also lifted 190lbs 11 times on deadlift. Like a said, not huge impressive numbers but that really does not matter right now as long as I am progressing and getting stronger, which I am!

I would also like so mention that my wife has been hitting the weights hard with me. She is doing so awesome. She deadlift 95lbs for 7 times and did her first real squats with a 45lb barbell this week. She knocked out 7 reps at 45 lbs on her last set. The most she had lifted prior to this was 25 lbs for 5 reps. She is also excited about the weight loss that goes along with lifting heavy weights.

It's been a good week!
