I apologize for the lack of blog posts this week. Its been quite a week of catharsis and random people popping up in our lives. The good part is that most issues solved themselves, so there was little effort on my part except to live through the experience, which was exhausting in itself.
So, for the past week, what I've realized is that even though I'm eating well, I think I might still be eating 'too' well to burn the fat off that's been sitting here.
I've been reading the Atkins book that is on the shelf for reference, but I mixed up some info, so I had been eating carbs here and there at dinner, and I think that is what has been delaying more results.
So from here on out, my carb intake will be further reduced. fruits too. Its just too many sugars that my body has to process first, to then return to fat burning, so I'm going to have to do my best to eat mostly proteins, and one cup of veggies/carbs per meal. Its going to hurt my will power a bit late at night, but I'll just have to snack on proteins and celery or drink hot water with lemon.
My weight is still around 158-160 depending on the workout. I'm plateauing at 20 lbs, but I know why... its been my carb intake I've been messing around with, but now that I'm confident that its been the problem.

To fill in the information that I'm missing, I think its time that I get the Paleo book...
Also, here's an example of how eating paleo can rip your body up in weeks!!!

| doesn't look like change, but I'm smaller overall |
 |
| flexing the abs really lifts the belly that won't leave! |
 |
| belly still there but shrinking |
 |
| belly pulls in when abs are flexed |
 |
| losing the handles and crease! |

As for today, just finished up at the DMV, going to drive down to Norwalk to sell the van, and then i'm riding the train back home. Hopefully, i'll get a good work out in before dinner, otherwise, it will be after dinner. Then, I should return to work outs in the morning, after I drop my wife off to work. Its a good system because then I'm guaranteed to make it to the gym by 7:30 AM.
I made some new shirts, so I'll have to post a pic of them soon.
Hope you all have a great monday, and get out there and...
DO SOMETHING!
