Depends on what you’re looking for. PM me
Week 1, 5/20/12 - weight: 238.0, strength is going well
Week 2, 5/27/12 - weight 235.0, Strength felt a little low, but I wasn’t able to measure my food earlier this week, so I might have cut it a little low. Had a cheat meal wednesday. Also bought smaller jeans. What fruit do you want me to switch to this week?
Week 3, 6/3/12 - weight 239.8 Strength was good this week. You know about the cheat meal. Had kiwi for fruit, added about 1/4 cup salsa to some meals. That’s all that I did this week. Clothes still fit loose.
Week 4, 6/9/12 - weight 241.4. Strength was amazing this week. PR’d on everything and every day. This is a day early since I’m going to dinner tonight Black forrest pastrami reuben from Brents Deli. It shall be amazing. Last cheat meal was last wednesday, so 9 days ago. Clothes still fit loose. I didn’t have any deviations at all even while driving to California. I’ve also been really thirsty all week.
So are you trying to gain weight now?

That was the cheat meal, along with a cinnabon haha. And yes it did. I could barely itch my own ear when I was done 
Hit a post surgery PR on my squat yesterday. 335x8 no belt. Parallel box.
Also, I’m officially CSCS certified

Weel 5, 6/17/12 - weight 239.6. Strength is still going well, hit a pr on my squat post surgery this week. Had a cheat meal on Friday (4 slices of pizza, 1.5 chocolate eclairs). I’ve switched my routine to doing my lifting every other day and cardio every other day. Other than that everything is going well and my clothes are not getting any tighter in the waist.
Leaned out considerably. Shaving off that hair would improve the look too lol. I have the same deal.
1.5eclairs? Did the other half run away? lolz

Ha no, the lady only ate half of hers. So I couldn’t let it go to waste. Still haven’t received an email from JM yet. I sent him another follow up since I decided to have this weeks cheat meal early. Some mac and cheese I made and an ice cream bar. Woke up at 237.8 today lol. Hopefully I’ll get a response. I’ll also make sure to do the cardio religiously this week!
Diet is staying the same this week. We’re adding in a 5th day of training for chest, shoulders and upper back. He’ll tell me specifics tonight
Sounds like things are moving along well
Things are going very well. my evening weight is just over 240 now so I presume that by Sunday I should have a solid drop for this week
Congrats on the CSCS =)

Week 6, 6/24/12 - weight 237.6. Strength is good. I didn’t do any cardio this week at all except for a morning 7.5 mile hike in the forrest with dad. I also missed arms last week, so I did that session on monday and did this whole week from tue-friday so I had 5 sraight days. Also ate a little more fruit than I should have on monday, and had a small frozen yoghurt on wednesday. Still putting some catchup and what not on my food, small amounts though. Other than that things are obviously going well. Let me know what you think for this week. I’ll try to get some cardio (been really unmotivated for it lately) in, and stick with the new training sched you sent starting tomorrow. If I do start cardio I’ll have to do it before bed since I’m going to be waking up at 530ish for work starting Thursday, and I don’t want to get up much earlier than that I’ll also make sure that tonights cheat meal is more awesome than last week lol.
