BUCKEYE OPENER

Well I am going to have literally no time to post this weekend, so I might as well do it now while I'm getting paid, right?

So this morning I hopped on the ol' scale again and got something I really didn't expect... 179.5

Now, I have no idea how this happened but it seemed like just two weeks ago I was fighting tooth and nail with 190, then all the sudden I'm dropping weight like its no big thing. Which in fact, I am no longer. This is a good and bad thing, as much as losing all this weight has done both for my image and mentality... there is still much left to be done. I have almost zero definition in the midsection... and for some reason I STILL HAVE FREAKIN' LOVE HANDLES. Aggravating. But at least some numbers are going in the right direction and it is getting close time to start seriously focusing on my muscle building... which will mean a change in diet. I feel this is something I will have to ease into as it will obviously be more calories, and I don't want to over do it on my first few attempts. One thing I will have to start thinking about is how to plan my meals entirely different, especially since I will be going back to school soon. If I want to lift and successfully build muscle, I'm going to have to up my protein intake probably 5x what it is now, and I'm going to have to spread that through a day of short, small meals, approaching somewhere in the network of 2000-2200 calories of dense, wholesome food a day. It's going to be a helluva lot more challenging than forcing myself into the gym, thats for sure.

Anyways, I got Red Lobster endlesss shrimp tonight, Buckeye opening day tomorrow, and probably chillin' with my friends up in Columbus on Sunday... then my sisters birthday on Monday. Yeah, busy, and a lot of challenging scenerios nutrition wise. I gotsta go, have a great weekened everyone
