Diet and lifting

Today, I'm off from training .... So, on my mind is on diet!

Fortunately, I have been close weight , even with eating chocolate! Not that I've haven't made some sacrifices. I have to eat within +/- 200 calories a day, that's like cutting-out one latte a day.

Seriously, I have been doing a low starch/high protein/high fiber diet. I'm getting in about 1gram of protein per pound of muscle a day. Still, there exists a dilemma: I have limited calories to eat in a day, yet I need to get in a lot of protien. When faced with the choice of eating 200 calories of pizza or 200 calories of chicken, I'm probably going with the chicken.

Losing bodyfat is just a matter of strict discipline; ofcourse, easier said than done. Between spending time on a college campus and 40 hours a week in an engineering office, I dodge a plethora of free pizza, donuts, and girl scout cookies on a daily basis.

I'll write more on this later.
