TweetBeen out of town and busy for a few days. Today sucked. Have lost some weight so i tried to come off my prilosec and had been fine for almost 3 days and then it hit me full force when i got to the gym. Happy overall though. My diet goal is currently just to kind of run a low key bodybuilder style diet and i eat more when I’m hungry and less when I’m not so much. One to two cheats a week. Consistent cardio. This is my favorite way to eat healthier because i know i can maintain it long term. I know i should probably be eating more greens and be on some vitamin and mineral supps and ill prob creep them in eventually.
