ok, lets try this again for reals

ok, so as of today, i'm going to try to log my workouts and diets more seriously so i can have something to look back on. Thanks John for the info. i think i now have the reputation of being the junk food king. The funny thing is i usually do pretty well with diet. i just happened to start blogging on the day i was in the middle of a junk food phase. i've had a lot of stress at work with some compliance deadlines and i've needed some feel good food since i don't drink or take drugs. The one thing i will confess to is not understanding moderation. i am an all or nothing guy. I've dieted on nothing but flax oil, water, and whey powder for weeks at a time to lose weight. I've also eaten 24 voodoo donuts in 1 day. See what i mean. i've never been able to just be moderately well. Thats why i was super fond of the body opus diet for many years. Written by Daniel Duchaine(he's dead now. probably from the diet he wrote about)It was a 70%fat/30% protein diet Monday through Friday and a 80%carb/20%protein diet saturday and sunday. i would do this for 12 weeks every year when i was a vain 20 something year old so that i was lean for the summer. It was the perfect diet for someone like me that was all or nothing and didn't understand moderation. I'm trying to be more moderate now that i'm almost an adult. We've been house sitting this week so ive been away from my fridge and i'm affraid of the stuff in the beaverton fridge. I was in meetings again today so the diet wasn't great but it wasn't total crap either. I only drank about 30 oz of water and too much coffee. My calf cramped doing a pistol squat today as a result.
