242 days to go

Bodybuilding is such a mind fuck. Today is an off day...I know I don't have to lift, I know that the rest is just as important as the training, yet I STILL want to just go to the gym and do some type of activity. Oh well. On this off day I reminisce of my first competition...much of the training was done up north and when my family saw my weight drop rapidly a lot of people thought I looked terrible. "Emmaciated" was used quite a bit. Interestingly enough I had almost the same amount of muscle on me just a whole lot less bodyfat from when I was 200 lbs. Although to sympathize not many men have a 27" waist!

So on this off day I will have another low carb/low fat day. My calorie intake will be around the 12 to 1500 mark. Hopefully that'll help get this lower ab fat off damnit! Diet will consist of three things...protein powder, chicken breast and maybe a steak for dinner...like I said every nutritionist's nightmare :-)
