That is lunch for some of my friends here in the hills of KY.
I had some cake on my bday last week. I am a sucker for good German chocolate cake with no icing. I had to have a small piece. Diet or no diet, you still have to celebrate and live a happy life.

Down a total of 9 pounds. Recently got a scale that measures body fat and I'm hovering around 9.3-9.7%. Been procrastinating about getting a gym membership, need to get off my ass and do work.

I guess it's time for an update.
First the bad news. Pinky finger is still busted and now splinted and taped. ![]() And.... my grandmother (we are very close) fell and broke her leg again. She is 75yrs old and don't respond well to anesthesia. She had a mild heart attack and a collapsed lung during the surgery to fix her leg. ![]() And some good news. I have reached my goal weight +1, which puts me at 176.7lbs. I am also noticing a boost in strength and endurance. The workouts don't seem to be as intense as they once were, despite working to failure each time. I think next time, I will be up to 540lbs + sled weight on the leg press. Here is what I am easily pushing now (450lbs). 3 sets of 10 doesn't even feel like a workout anymore. ![]() Wife says my 6 pack is getting better. Oh! the wife is down 8lbs more and now I have to look into getting her rings resized. My overall mood is good but feeling pretty stressed out. I am holding up. ![]()

Hang in there Chris. Life can be tough sometimes but it sounds like you're doing as well as you can.
You and your grandmother are in my thoughts. |

Instead of going to failure why not bump the weight up and try to achieve 6-8 reps? Good progress as well. I've been sticking with my new routine as well but as it always seems I got sick and had to take a few days off, somehow I doubt I'll be doing myself any good trying to workout when I'm barely able to breathe as is due to a cold ha.

I think I need to eval my weight on more than the leg press, my gym workouts are starting to take too long.

I shoot for about an hour, give or take a few mins. Sometimes I go hard to shock the system, like that leg workout a couple of weeks ago. Those take a couple of hours, it's long but not terrible.

Well I haven't exercised in like 4 months so I'm totally out of wack as far as what sounds good. But I think I ran so much in the last 3 years that my metabolism is still trying to play catchup. There really is no other explenation to why I'm still sub 10% body fat with how many boxes of cookies I've eaten when not exercising. They say its an age thing but I'm not exactly a teenager anymore but regardless I plan on enjoying my flexible youth while it lasts

I graduated up to the big boy weight rack too! 90lbs is the smallest dumbbell on the rack. So I am up to 90lbs on the dumbbell chest press and row. ![]() ![]() ![]() Dang It!

Not bad, I need to start recording my weights but after being off for so long I'm still focused on form over weight. Your numbers are better than mine though ha.

I Will look into it thanks. I looked at greek yogurt that everyone says to have in the AM with some oats, nuts or fruit. Not quite fitting for my diet.

I'm surprised Sarah was the first one to say something ha. As for progress, so far in the past month I somehow lost about a pound but I'm slowly progressing and seeing slight gains so I guess I can't complain.
