Tropez' Diary

Just throwing in my 2 CENTS!
Since you mentioned it I have found another thing, you lack a post-workout meal.(within the time frame of 30mins). You should replace lost nutrients within that time for optimal results. Don't forget carbs in pw. 60g carbs and 30g is good.

I have just purchased some Whey protein shakes to add for after my workout. I figure this will have the protein I need to build on the muscles that I am working out to feed them. So I should add a carb to that as well eh?

The Siriacha is more of an asian taste since I seem to make a bunch of asian style dishes. Is the Texas Pete different? More like a fried chicken type hot sauce?

Yes its more of a chicken type hot sauce. Very good. Make sure you check your label for amount of sodium per serving. Too much sodium is no good, and a lot of hot sauces have a ton. However, make sure you get the regular texas pete not the texas pete buffalo style cause that has a lot of sodium.
 
Saw you post on a different post...what happen to ur signature?!?! Still wanna know progress hopes its going good and get that signature back :p

Diet is looking better ;). Uh, is that white toast I see? Or 'white death' as Arnold says. Try to hit 50%carbs. 25% protein. 25%fat.

And remember Full Body Exercises do you GoOd.

My weight varies by a few pounds usually. I think overall it is going down. I did have a pretty poor weekend this past week and that screwed me up a bit. I am back on track now and going in the right direction. I think I just need to keep at it daily with a healthy diet and cardio at least. Weights are every other day at my current pace. I think I may be building some muscle underneath the fat (been doing weights for almost 3 weeks now) so that may make it look as if I am ganing. I will watch it though.

Thanks for checking out my diary and commenting. I keeps me going to know others are taking a look at my progress. Thanks again.
 
No need to change your Diet bro.

You are making progress and with adding the weights your body will adjust a little then get moving in the right direction again.

Keep it up.
