Diet
I am finally working with John on my diet and it is great and it’s only been 2 days. It is nice to not have to think about anything for a change and he is having me do things I never thought about doing things on my own. Since I can’t give anything away I am just going to tell you my diet is 72g of fat, 386g of carbs, and 364 of protein on training days and 92g of fat, 243g of carbs,and 310g of protein on off days. I am supposed to have 2 cheat meals a week right now and I am loving my postworkout meal which is 3 cups of trix, 2 cups almond milk and 2 scoops whey. Absolutely beautiful…
Life
So my life isn’t frequently a bundle of laughs, but on occasion it has been but in all honesty this has been a very rough few weeks…
My type 1 diabetes is getting bad again and out of control leaving me feeling VERY sick and pouring insulin in with little to no effect only to run ridiculously low…found out recently someone that I have considered a friend has only been using me to help him progress diet and training wise to only mock me behind my back…my other friends have time and time again turned their back on me when I desperately needed aid after I had did them favors without fail…I was just laid off from my job…My car ran out of gas twice this week…I failde my math class because I missed a test because of my diabetes…I am over stressed…and sometimes the only thing that motivates me to keep going is my girlfriend and lifting and I am starting to realize those are the only to entities that care if I am alive or dead on this planet…
Sometimes I don’t even feel like I have a friend in jesus…
I have to become great, because I won’t let all of this to be for nothing.
