    When I'm really tired I'm absolutely pathetic at resisting takeaways. The best way I can resist it is to just have a big plate of something healthy and drinking loads of water. One of the Oriental bastards got a Papa John's yesterday and it didn't make me jealous, though, so I reckon I've moved away from total fat shit mode.

    Actually, my mate brought up kebabs on Sunday and I had to do the big plate thing at 3 in the afternoon to stop myself from ordering one. Better than a pizza, though, I reckon.

    Been doing pretty alright since Saturday. Veg and mushroom risotto for dinner Saturday, a healthy(ish) roast on Sunday (loads of boiled veg, homemade onion gravy, homemade nut burgers and a few roast potatoes), aubergine, chickpea and tomato curry last night (with some awesome parathas) and tonight I just threw together my classic veg pasta sauce with some wholemeal pasta.

    Chorizo and beef sausage goulash tomorrow though .

    One thing I don't get about Slimming World is that pasta is free but bread isn't. Aren't they very similar?

    Bread is a different type of carbohydrate which isn't as energy dense meaning it doesn't fill you up as much.

    Not many breads aren't made with butter or oil in them either.

    You can have two slices of whole meal bread per day as your Healthy Extra though.

    Surely you want less energy dense stuff since energy = calories? You want stuff that has a large volume to fill up your stomach but doesn't have much calories.

    Also, they're both wheat based so I don't see how they can be particularly 'different carbohydrates'. That's sounds a bit pseudo-sciencey.

    Most normal bread is made without butter.

    The normal path I run on is about 6km (3km there, 3km back). Its a hilly woodland path and is of course rather muddy at the moment so more difficult than normal. Anyway, during the first half it was the usual stop-start effort, but on the way back apart from about 200m at the start I didn't stop once. I remember about 1km in thinking this is the longest I've run in a while and I managed to carry it all the way back. Could have gone on for longer, too. The last 3-4 days I've had so much energy when in the gym/running. I reckon its the giving up sugar.

    What a day. That coupled with handing in an essay without having to pull an all nighter and the Jaffa Cakes are still there from NYE.

    Had my first minor slip-up today. Forgot I'd agreed to go for lunch with a girl I work with before my decision to dedicate my life to wholesome eating, and ended up having a falafel burger (not too bad) with sweet potato fries (hm). Within an a couple of hours I felt so groggy and dehydrated and generally shitty. It has definitely made me even more committed to eating fresh, healthy food.

    Yeah, I think I'll struggle if I have to eat out. Luckily I can't afford much of a varied diet.

    Gonna try intermittent fasting in order to try and build muscle whilst losing fat. 3 day cycle like:

    Day 1 - Weightlifting first thing, 2,500cal-3,000cal over course of the day, 250g-300g of protein

    Day 2 - Pack in a lot of protein early on before cardio quite late at night, 1500cal over whole day, 200g-250g protein

    Day 3 - Hold off on eating for as long as possible then cardio in the afternoon, 1000cal throughout day, 150g peotein

    It's not really that much is it?

    Half bottle is 5 good house measures. I go through about a bottle a week, 2-3 bottles of wine split with the wife and about 8 beers. More if I'm out.

    I'm talking about a blend or bourbon or whatever with mixer.

    I don't go through straight whisky like that.

    Week in Jersey wasn't good for this. In all week writing an essay with food everywhere plus two nights out. Still gaining muscle, though. Started PPL this week.

    My desire to put on muscle seems to be outweighing the desire to lose fat at the moment, so I'm eating near enough the right amount of calories to sustain my weight. As well as doing weights first thing, I'll start doing cardio in the evening to shave off 500 calories a day. That should maintain a steady loss of fat along with the ridiculous amount of protein I'm eating. Even though I'm putting on muscle quickly, I know in the back of my mind its for nothing if I still have a belly.

    Whisky does go down a fucking treat when you don't bother about how much you drink. I won't drink a litre, but if I crack open a bottle with a mate before going out think we'll do 2 or 3 glasses, the bottle is pretty much always finished up (that does sort of fuck the evening though if you go on drinking after that).

    I'm also sort of on this train. Not really, as my strategy is to make sure I train 4-5 times a week at least and not bother too much about what I eat (because that never works out in the long run for me). But as a consequence, I do eat a bit healthier really. Just doesn't feel right to stuff down a massive burger for lunch after toiling at the gym for an hour. Except maybe on fridays.

    Since I'm hitting the weights a bit I dunno if I'm really supposed to lose much weight. I'd be happy to have lost 5 kilos come summer. So far I'd say I've gone down maybe 2 since november. Lost a little bit of the girth, like 2-3 cm maybe, as well. Though I don't look much different, I definitely feel a lot fitter. Been quite consistent with the gym about 2-3 times a week and about 2 sessions of cardio every week. The occasional jog as well.

    Just wanna keep this up really, that's always the hard part.

    I do eat healthily all the time, but its surprising how quickly the calories add up, especially when aiming for a protein goal. At the moment I'm aiming for around 300g of protein, maybe more to err on the safe side. I can probably cut calories from that. This PPL routine suggests 1 rest day per week, but I figure since I'm in London next weekend for a couple of nights I'll just use this week's rest day and double up next weekend. The weekend after my mate is here for 3 days, so that's another 2 minimum. I could go to the gym, but I'd feel like a bit of a dick just sacking him off for a couple of hours.

    I'm down as of this morning to 176.6 from 181.8 at New Yeaars. I was 215 at my peak when I graduated. I'm going on Spring Break on March 10, and hopefully will be able to get down to 165-167~ by then and finally be aesthetic.

    To those who have experience lifting weights: how long do you reckon I can carry on with a 2 day routine of back/biceps/forearms then chest/shoulders/triceps? The last four days I've done this and recovered fine and still making gains lifting. I'll be doing cardio in the evenings, maybe pop a legs workout in once a week if I'm feeling sore. I suppose just judge it off whether I feel up to it on the day.

    Listen to big tunes all day.

    Aren't forearms worked out by hammer curls? Obviously I don't isolate for them.

    Most things will end up hitting your forearms indirectly though grip/stabilisation.
