Catch 22

Whew, it's day 22 and I'm officially below 220, ok so it's not by much, but hey, I'll take what I can get. Still feeling good about all this. My mind is doing good and I'm sorta moto going through this, which probably the biggest hurdle I think everyone has when hitting the gym, especially when they start a workout program.

Today is also the day I take my progress pics. Didn't see much progress last week, but last week isn't the finish line, Friday October 2nd is. Just keeping that in my head.

Last night I had my dinner and waited a tad before hitting the gym. Took my preworkout and got there around 19:45 and left just a little after 21:00. It was just supposed to be a cardio night, but I added in 3 sets of 3 midsection exercises, crunches, side bends and hyperextensions. I know I shouldn't have done that, but I've been seeing some positive results on my mid section this week. So I'll be saving that for after my workouts as a bit of "sugar on top" of my workout. lol... Part of what I think has helped me with the weight loss is that I haven't been eating anything after I get home and I've been trying to limit my protein intake to lean meats and only using the shakes as a supplement as needed. This afternoon I'll study up more on when to be taking Glutamine and Creatine. Last time I studied up on them I think I was supposed to be cycling the Creatine for a a month and loading up with 1g scoops spread out throughout the day and then the Glutamine right before and right after the workout.
