Live Love Lift

1 month down, 4 more to go.

So it’s been 1 month of building (lifting heavy, eating A LOT). Progress is going well, slow, but well. I just have to keep going and remember that in order to reach my goals it takes a lot of time and dedication! It’s around this time that I usually get off track and start eating lean or completely relapse and not stick to a diet/exercise regiment at all.  When you build muscle, you will also gain fat.  There is really no way around this especially if your trying to make the gains I am. I know this, but when I put on my pants and there a little more snug than usual I get that awful feeling I did when I was 13 and overweight. Afraid of getting fat! The average American starts a fitness routine in order to loose weight.  Well, I lost a lot of weight a long time ago, and now I am trying to gain muscle.  It’s hard to stay focused because of the time it takes to grow and the fat you gain.  Also, I have to eat SO MUCH! It seems like the more I eat, the better results I see. Sometimes I feel like I’m eating too much but I’m trying to gain, so allowing cheat meals is good. It will all be worth is when I have huge sexy shoulders, and awesome legs! I just have to keep thinking of my goals, and stay focused.
