Calorie counting

You guys are the lucky ones, or it may be due to your intense levels of activity. I work a desk job mon-fri 9-5, but I lift weights heavy mon-tue, thu-fri, as well as play ice hockey 1 or 2 times a week... I would consider that a moderate level of activity... yet I need to monitor this stuff carefully or my fat gain gets out of control.

After gaining high levels of fat (10-15 lbs for a trade off of maybe 3-5 lbs of muscle) during last two years of bulking, I'm taking the macros very seriously this year to avoid the same mistake.

The health benefits of removing refined carbohydrates from your diet is a discussion for another day I think

Capoeira is my main source of cardio and muscle endurance/stamina. It's also the activity that most directly influences my flexibility. I'm always on the go!

Nah it will be worth it, do it

I need 1500 cals for the rest of the day to hit my goal of almost 3000. That would drastically increase my carbs and leave my protein very low for the day though. Hmm

Great memory! My XL thin crust pepperoni pizza will be devoured sometime tomorrow. My belly is ready!

A whole pizza once a week? What is this, a cutting diet?

Yep! Keeps the abs chiseled.

I just devoured 3 Chick-fil-a chicken sandwiches. It took all of about 3 minutes tops...


....and the machine keeps moving!

I didn't have time either... which blows because its hard enough to get 3200+ let alone when you are already missing the usual 600 in the morning.
