Just curious–why are you still doing cardio?[/quote]
Since adding cardio (I didn’t do much at all for most of the diet period) I’ve generally felt better, had better energy levels at work and whatnot. Most importantly now I’d rather eat more than do less.

If I didn’t know me, I would assume that as well. But absolutely not. I look forward to lifting weights, but the entire time I’m lifting I have to remind myself to stay motivated to do cardio after. I seriously hate cardio.

Hey man if I were you, I’d hire a coach right away. I know a few guys who are VERY good who will work with you for a low price. If you dedicate yourself to following their plan, you WILL stay lean and you WILL look better.
For reference, I was dieting on 230p/110c/55f training days, 235p/85c/55f off days for a while. lol. Hired a coach to help me reverse diet and all that jazz, and within 6 weeks I was eating like 220p/400c/55f training, 220p/350c/55f off. Had actually lost 1 lb as well. Just put your faith into someone objective with more knowledge and you’re bound to succeed.
Also, not to sound like your mother but you’re too young to be this crazy! You’re on the verge of disorder man. Seriously. I’ve been where you’re at and it’s not healthy. This hobby is supposed to be life-adding, not life-minimizing. 2-3 hours in the gym daily, crabby all day, no libido. Sounds like you’ve crashed your metabolism and picked up an eating disorder man. I’d highly highly highly recommend hiring a coach and finding someone to talk to (a friend, parent, counselor, psych). Sometimes talking about this stuff WITH A REAL PERSON (not on the internet) takes away its power over you.
Carry on though dude, you look good [/quote]
I’ve considered hiring Austin but right now I’m to scared financially to commit money to that. Not trying to get political but my company enacted Obamacare changed early so I lost 10-12 hours/week. I’m donating plasma, working 24-25 hours a week and living on my tax return until school is over with. I’m going to try to get a second job over the summer that pays well and if I can I’ll hire a coach.
I don’t really have a disorder. I go to the gym daily because I live pretty simply, and have nothing better to do in my free time. I don’t wig out on holidays and stuff when I can’t go. The way I look at it is that if I train every day when I have time, during final exams if I need to take a few days off It matters a lot less.
I’ve never looked awesome naked in my entire life. I want to in 2013.
Another option would be planning for 2000-2100 cals/day and adding 2 poptarts and a whey shake postworkout. Adding cals every few weeks this summer.
Poptarts sound awesome.
