Am i missing somethign? what is this “mini feast and feast”?
The mini feast is a serving of flax, 3 Flameout, 2 fiber choice tabs and Metabolic Drive. THE FEAST is 2tbsp Peanut butter, 1 tbsp flax, 3 Flameout and Metabolic Drive. I’m calling them that because at first it seemed like a feast. Now it’s nummy.
NOTE: I’m reeealy needing to get some sleep in, so I’m shifting everything back an hour. Just downed my first shake, bed around 9 after zma and some bcaa. So today’s schedule is 7,11, 2,5,8 for shake and WAKE, 1pm, 6pm, bed for bcaas. That is all.

OK, that makes sense. I was just kinda confused. There are plenty of people out there (just see all the logs popping up every day), that claim to be doing the diet but have oatmeal, or other foods in their plan… umm ok… ya know?
Hey, you are on day 10!!
How you feeling? Getting tired of the shakes or still feeling strong? This is where I had to start changing the consistancy of the shakes while I was on the V-Diet.
If the consistancy is starting to bother you, make it in pudding form (less water), blend it with crushed ice (like an actual milk shake). I added 1tbsp of fat free, sugar free pudding mix to change the flavor. That was a nice treat 
B-3
B-3. I’m feeling fine, thanks! Well, small but other than that good. The shakes are really getting to be something I enjoy, especially the chocolate. The buttery finish is addictive. I’m noticing that if I put too little water in the shakes, they get all syrupy, kinda like maple, or limoncello.
Tomorrow is training day 5, so I’m anxious to see what goes up. the days reealy are flying, but I must ask on your v-diet, what did you do for the hsm? I’ve fritattias on the mind, artichoke, spinach, scalion, and some marinated chicken. Or rather A nice steak and some brocolli. Brocoli seems to be my repeat offender, as far as cravings go.
Ah, diet day 10
Shake and supps as per normal, but bumped back an hour as noted above. Workout report tomorrow.

I did, however have to preform a straight set for one round due to avalibility, but that just means I’ll get there earlier next time. Excuse is not a word I will know. Diet as per regular, updated in a min. btw, in the squat, there was a fun vein I saw come out of nowhere going to the elbow. that was a fun sight.

Looks as if you had a great workout. How long did it take you? Are you working out in the morning or evening?
B^3,The workout kicked my butt! I did it in the morning, bout 600 (Slept in for the gym crowd) and was done a little after 7. It took about 15 min longer than norman due to having to do some straight sets a time or two then moving on to the program, but all in all, about 45 min.
I have a confession to make to the v-dieters. Yesterday, I snapped. I was looking at the pictures, and the mirror, and was just plain infuriated. I do x and get y? So, yesterday, I went on a wee parabola. Technically, I should be out. I had my three strikes:
Strike 1. Diet cheating: 1/5th peeled avacado. (It was awesomely tasty, free, and substituted a serving of flax. Also, 300+ calories I was NOT supposed to have from Surge after my bright idea to train in the evening)
Strike 2. Somehow, The bright idea for killing my legs came about. I returned to the gym later that day, in the evening and after bouncing about the racks and benches, and doing sets til I lost count, down the rack style for a few, I decided to squat, jumpsquat, bw squat, and do the leg press a few times.
Strike three. I got in my nepa walk. I wanted not to walk. I decide to go to the treadmill and put in some time. 25 min of incline later, I downed some Surge and called it a night.
Captain obvious should step in for a moment and tell everyone that a brand spankin’ lesson hath been learned. ya can’t half ass your stuff. I thought Things were going smoothly, but if I actually want anything to happen, 100% is insufficent. I am kicking myself for:
1: no stopwatch, just my wristone.
2: Walks about the neighborhood, while good, are seemingly un-uniform. From now on, it’s treadmill readouts, and milemarkers. None of this hooey over “it feels like x.x mph” or well, my time’s up, i’m done.
3:Nutrient timing. No tolerances willbe given. +/- 5 min is all the leeway I am allowing. None of this close to or on the hour crap. 3:00 means 3. not 245, not 310.
Diet for today as per usaual. I do appoligize for the rant, today was awesome, and tomorrow I’m ready to crush the weights. There’s but one thing between my goals and I. Me. And that, that is el fin.
Training update, day counting and 48 hours til new pics. All this and more, Tomorrow. Adieu.

Well, I’m not sure weather it was a crash or what, but I felt gassed today, like i had no power. I’ll get in my nepa walk this evening, but to make sure, I’ll do it on a treadmill as per usaual, to obtain a uniform effort. Hopefully I’ll clear up later on in the day, but for now, today was a gutted gutless session. On a side note,Death handle is going down a little bit, so woot.
