Soooooo with the begining of this year came yet another struggle with getting my yet older and softer self to the gym to get back into shape. This year a new angle actually eating a bit better to go along with it. I have started with just a regular circut workout. 15 min on the treadmill and 15 on the elypticall and then about a half hour on the free weights hitting all areas and always ending the night with a set on the abs. It has been going good so far and especially with the late hour shift I have to work. I have been eating a lot better although I still have my little bit of pizza about once a week with the kids, I will never be able to give it all up like some can. Why work hard if I can’t enjoy the things I like once and a while to? I don’t do Too many vegies at all, I just don’t like most of them due to either texture or simple taste . Yes I am the picky eater. But I do like a lot of fruit and make an attempt to work them into my diet a lot more. I like my chicken and rice and have recently aquired a rice cooker. My breakfast is a small bowl of shreaded wheat every day or an egg with a piece of wheat toast. Then I take some Jacked 3D pre-work out mix and some testosteone boosters before the gym. I do my work out then head to work and have some noodles for lunch. Dinner is usually around 3 am and consists of a small bowl of chicken and rice with a fruit and jello cup and a greek yogurt. I also pack either oranges or banannas for small snacks through the night. I head home and hit the bed by 9 am if I am lucky. I drink as much water as I can at all times. The biggest adjustment I have been getting used to is portion size as I used to eat big. I am getting used to the smaller portions quite fast and the time in the gym is already giving me extra energy. I will be moving to higher weights next week. I feel the energy building, now I am looking for the waist size to start shirnking. I will keep you updated on the progress and how it goes as I am sticking this out. I have a graduation I wanna look great for in may with a special girl I wanna impress and a date in summer 2013 that I wanna be my best for. Most of all I want to live a good healthy life without having to dig out from under over and over again. Fighting Weight here I come. Fighting in tournament again in my 30′s here I come!
