I had an okay day yesterday. My diet was a little off, I consumed a few extra hundred calories. Again a cause of being at work, wasn't hungry but couldn't stop myself from grabbing little bits of food here and there. I guess you don't realize how much you enjoy food and in a sense are addicted to it until you take certain aspects of it away. I don't know if this shows that I have no will power but it is a bit upsetting. I feel like these little splurges of a few hundred calories here and there are what's really keeping me from shedding the pounds. I was 189lbs again yesterday morning. So I might have even gained weight this past week. I will say last week I started taking creatine again so I could have put on a little water weight. This is possible but in the past taking creatine I've never really packed on any significant weight just from taking the stuff. Hopefully it is a combo of the creatine and maybe some muscle gain. I feel like my upper obliques are really starting to pop out. I decided to start taking the creatine as this 6 days a week of training has definitely been taxing on my muscles. I can deal with it, but I definitely fine my muscles a bit sore and tired on training days and I am hoping the creatine will help out a bit with that.

Wednesday's training session was definitely a case of having some sore muscles all around. My entire posterior chain was still quite sore from Monday, and my legs were just feeling tired. This was definitely evident in my front squats. Although I put up some decent weight of 135x3 185x3 225x3 205x3 205x3 205x3 I barely made the 225 set which I was hoping to not have as much trouble from. My lower back was still a bit sore as well, and while it didn't push my weights down, during my uni deads and uni rows superset my lower back was on fire. On fire in a good way, not a hurt way, just that it was being worked really hard. So overall not a great day, but I got in the gym trained hard, and still kept my caloric intake to around 2500 calories which isn't a ton. Cheers.
