Ever since I moved it's been hard to find the time to blog. Nonetheless, I've been keeping up with my goals I mentioned earlier. Weight wise I stepped on the scale at 145 lbs today! An all new record. When I was living at home, my weight would fluctuate but never really go up, but with my new diet and training regime it's well on it's way. I haven't gotten around to count my calories or any of that stuff, but I structure my meals around a few basic rules:
1. Use the food pyramid. When buying groceries I make sure there are proportionate amounts of each food group.
2. Eat healthy. I want to gain lean mass, not get fat!
3. Eat LOTS. I try to get in 6 meals a day, with each meal not being extremely large.
Here's typically what I eat in a day:
6:15 AM - Omelette with 2 eggs and red pepper, green onion, mushrooms, tomatoes, onions, ham and cheese.
- Bowl of oatmeal
10:00 AM - Ham, lettuce, and cheese sandwich
- Bowl of yogurt with berries
- An orange, or apple
- Handful of almonds
12:00 PM - Either pasta, or rice with chicken and brocolli
- Another fruit
3:00 PM - Tuna Sandwich
- Another fruit
6:30 PM - Rice, with chicken breast and vegetables on side
9:30 PM - Fruit Smoothie
And here's the graph of my weight progress
Getting in the groove of things

Lastly, I just finished week 6 of the MadCow lifting program. I'm seeing gains already, so I can't wait until week 12! Since things are starting to get heavy though, I started taking creatine again. Today was my first day so I will be on a 5 day loading phase this week!
