stop the insanity?
i pulled up some old polaroids where i went from 221 to 183. felt great, but i had to give up way too much. eating only hardboiled eggwhites with a piece of whole wheat pita bread...to this day, i can barely eat cottage cheese. i mean it really worked, and i could jog multi miles, easy. i started dumb-bell presses with 15 pounders. i was weak, heavy, and depressed.
then i started dating a girl that lived life. happy as hell. some of you have met her, and you know what i mean. many insist i get off my a$$ and marry her. nevertheless, you know the dating process. i put back some weight, but i am very healthy. just 10 days ago, i stuck the polaroids up on the fridge, and i have been working out, and eating good again, not fanatical, just good. i like to think that my body reached "equilibrium". anyways, too much is too much. i can still push 85 lb dumbells (12 reps), and can jogg 3 miles easy, and i eat normal. 5-6 smaller meals a day. too much sacrifice is not living. i work out 6 days a week. 3 with weights, 3 with cardio. sunday is free day. zero tolerance for fast food. no micky D (well maybe twice a year)! just trying to set up a routine that i can take to the grave. eggs are sometimes better with yolks
