Weight 282lbs
This will be a short one I just finished up my homework and don't feel like writing much. It has been such a long day I almost can't remember my workout this morning. I went to the gym around 6am and did a LBW, not one of my best but not a bad one. I came home checked my email and got ready for work. Work was pretty slow again but sometimes it's nice when it isn't so hectic. After I got off my Mom came in to do a little shopping so I helped her out for awhile then headed home. When I came home I ate my 5th meal, worked on my homework and reading, and squeezed in another meal. Tomorrow I need to call Creighton to see if they can check my BF% on Friday or Saturday. I hope I am down to at least 25% or so we will see I guess.

Day -6
Weight- 284lbs
I woke up this morning and hit the gym did a little HIIT cardio, then went home and got ready for work. Surprisingly my upper body is not all that sore I really expected to be hurting. It is kind of funny how that works. Sometimes you think you didn't get in a good work out and your dieing the next day, then sometimes you think you had the best workout ever and you don't feel anything. Work started out busy and then kind of tapered off. After work I came home did some homework and watched some TV. I am really starting to get excited for my next official stating in less than a week. My second class ended Wednesday and I got my grades back, I got another A. I am just expecting the grading to get tougher soon hopefully I can keep it up for a year. Well I better go pack my meals for tomorrow I need to go to bed I plan on getting up early for my LBW tomorrow.

Day -7
Weight- Unknown
It is good to be back to posting after a couple of days off. I went back to the farm this weekend to work on tearing down one of our barns. We got a lot accomplished. There were a ton of antique tools and things that we removed to save we also took down the cupola and lightning rods, as well as the large door that they used to open to put hay in the loft. We were planing on bringing the whole thing down, but didn't have the right equipment to do it safely. So we will do that in the middle of July sometime.
I had a great LBW at my old highschool on Friday. It was so hot in there and no fans I thought about opening a window but working up a good sweat was kind of fun in a sick sort of way. I tried to push my legs to failure on squats like planned, but didn't quite get there. However I got pretty dang close, and my legs are crying today.
I woke up this morning and drove back from Iowa for work at 10 it was dreadfully slow due to the CWS and Fathers day so our manager let all the fathers go home around 2. After work my brother and sister-in-law stopped by to say hi and give me a gift. I had been talking about how cool it would be if they had a candle that smelled like fresh cut grass. Jessica told me they had them at Target. Of course I completely forgot to go pick one up, but they got one for me and it's great!
After they left I went to the gym and had a really great UBW and will be very sore tomorrow! Even though my weight isn't going down by leaps and bounds I definately notice a difference in my BF, during this time between challenges I have lost alot in my chest and gut. I also noticed my calves in the mirror on friday and they are starting to show some good definition. Slowly but surely I am getting there.
I have most of my major cooking done for the first part of the week and am ready pretty much for bed. I will wake up early again tomorrow and do my cardio before work.

Weight- 281lbs
This morning I went to 24 again with Dave what a way to start the morning. I walked in and signed the guest sheet like I did on Monday. The kid at the desk said, your ID please in a condescending tone. I assumed he was talking to Dave. I just kept my head down filling the info out on the sign up sheet he again said, YOUR ID PLEASE... in an even snottier tone. I looked up and asked are you talking to me? He said yes I need your ID. I didn't bring my wallet for some reason and told him that. Man he was annoyed! He then lectured me about how I need to bring an ID every time. I apologized and told him that they didn't request an ID the first time, I told him I could go home and grab it. Luckily he pulled some strings probably put his job on the line and let me in w/o seeing my ID. Dave and I had a great workout I hit a new high on bench first time I was able to break out he 85lb dumb bells in a long time. Dave seems to really push himself time wise I think he finished right around 47 minutes which is good. When we left the gym and got in the car Dave and I were laughing about the exchange at the front desk. Dave had a good explanation for why this kid was so rude. He was what some might call an emo or "emotional" kid he looked a little like a toned down Marilyn Manson, not your typical gym rat. Dave thought it was the perfect job for him because all through high school he was probably picked on or something by the "jocks" and now he could get his revenge by hassling them at the front desk of a 24 hour fitness. lol Oh well I am really tired so I am going to bed I have along day ahead of me. I don't think I will post again until Sunday since I will be back home but trust me I will be getting my workouts and eating done as usual.

This morning I woke up early went to the gym and did some incline HIIT cardio. It was a good session and I pushed through it nicely. I think however I need to up the speed on Thursday. I got lucky today I one of our KC visitors didn't show up so I only had someone sitting with me for about 30 minutes. After work I went to the pool for awhile, it got a little cool so I came in early. I did a little homework ate and watched TV. I also picked my Mom's new laptop up for her today and got it charged tomorrow I will load Microsoft Office on for her and bring it home this weekend. Tomorrow I am going to go to 24 hr fitness again and help Dave with his legs, while I do my arms workout.

This morning I woke up and went to 24 hour fitness with Dave and helped him through his first BFL workout. He did pretty good and I looked at his sheet afterward he was pretty realistic about his 10's whereas looking back at my first workout I hit all 10's (yeah right). Working out in the morning gave me so much energy for work it was really great. Tomorrow I will have a manager or staff member from the KC store sitting with me and listening in all day. It is not bad having them sit with you for an hour, but the whole day? Oh well it's just one day.
I need to get a new protein shaker tomorrow because the cap on the one I have now got melted in the dishwasher. I can't continue to use my thumb as a cap it doesn't quite make a perfect seal.

Today's post will be very short I have to get to bed so I can get up early and go with Dave to the gym and help him through his first UBW. Today went really well I ate well and had a great work out this morning before church. I even beat the employees to the gym I forgot the gym opened at 7 on Sunday's and was there at 6:30. So I took a little nap in my car before my workout. Work went well today and after work I played softball. We lost big time and there was little conflict with the umps but it was still fun.
