Day 34

Hey all,

The scale isn't budging much recently, but that's all right. I'm still tinkering with my diet and workouts. Yesterday I introduced cottage cheese as the first dairy product I've had in a long time. I forgot how delicious cottage cheese can be, but I probably will only buy a tub of it on occasion, since I find that I get sick of it rather quickly.

Today's workout included burnout drop sets of bicep curls. Suffice it to say that my arms are pretty dead and probably will be for the first half of the week.

I really enjoy back to back lifting days on Saturday and Sunday. They leave me feeling strong and ready to take on the week. The weekday lifting sessions are slightly less relaxed - partially because I have other appointments and classes to get to, and partially because the weight room is more populated. I try to get there as early as I can (6am most days) to avoid the rush, but some days the rec is crowded even at that hour because of ROTC lifting.

Sidenote: one of my pet peeves is girls who talk on the cell phone while they walk on the treadmill. Ugh, I saw two girls doing that today, and I wanted to chuck their phones through the plate glass in front of them.

Anyway, here are today's stats.

Cheers!
