TweetI just read what I wrote and it was so damn long and boring to read Im just going to get to the point. Edit: This is still pretty long but I shortened it, really!
I quit my job as a bartender. I got a job as a "store manager in training" at a car place that pays really well and has great benefits. Most of you know that my diet and training have been good (well really good) the last 3-4 months. Im on cycle right now consisting of test/deca/winstrol and started it off with dbol. This job is a total change for me!!! I've gone from working 4pm till 10 or 11 pm in an air conditioned building with nice clothes on to..... working 7am-645 ish the last 7 days (Sunday was only 12-6) with no a/c or fans in work shorts and a polo shirt with tennis shoes on.
Honestly the 1st couple days kicked my ass. Its really hot (today was 102 degrees in the shop under the shade) and I sweat like something is wrong with me (all the guys ask why I sweat so much ), I guess its all the supplements Im on. I love working on cars and so far love the job its just very physically demanding. Im on a salary that requires 50 hours a week, didnt start till last Tuesday and had to catch up on hours. Also we dont really get breaks or even a lunch break. I kinda like that I dont have to take the whole hour break but no break kinda sucks. Anyhow one if us goes and grabs food for everyone and then we kinda stand around and eat it as best we can. The 1st few days I ate double cheeseburgers and fries all day after eating egg whites and oats in the morning and then going home and eating chicken, rice and greens.
The 3rd day I told myself that I shouldnt be eating this crap and made myself lunches for a few days. We have a tiny fridge that is full of stuff, so I had to go buy tubberware that would fit, all the stuff I had was too big! I have been cheating here and there the last few days but Im doing better now. Its really hard when you've been working for 8 hours with 3-4 hours to go, busting your ass and someone asks if I want a piece of pizza or some gatorade....ya know?
I need some better ideas of things I can eat on the go, so I dont get in trouble. Oh did I mention that the regional trainer's office is in our store? So nobody gets away with anything while he's there. You're standing around? Hes tells you to mop, take out the trash or clean the bays, ect......
This is what I've been eating the last few days
Wake up- protein shake
Take shower and eat eggs and oats before leaving/ on the way to work
Muscle Milk and and extra scoop of whey (about 50g protein total)
Chicken/Brown rice and a big salad
Muscle Milk and and extra scoop of whey (about 50g protein total)
Looked around the store for healthy snacks but had no idea so if I get hungry before I leave, I eat peanut butter crackers.
Then I get off and eat something balanced like Chicken/Rice/Veggies
Before bed I drink protein or have a spinach leaf salad with tuna and olive oil/ vinager
So any ideas? I saw some trail mix type stuff but the nutrition facts looked awful on the back. I think I was eating so good that I freak about eating junk. Anytime anyone offers me food, I eat it too. Granola bars, chips, pizza, a sandwhich, whatever....Im just starving for food all day, I think b/c Im using a lot more energy that normal.
I drink water all day long, I would say several gallons at least. We have those 5 gallon dispensers and I use a 12 oz cup downing 2-3 cups full everytime I get water which is quite often. I had some gatorade today b/c I was feeling ligh-headed and didnt want to pass out from the heat, yeah its that damn hot.
Also the other night I was all bummed out, thinking my body was going to go to shit from eating junk for 3 days when my chic stopped by... we hadnt seen eachother in a few days and about ripped eachothers clothes off! She told me that I was crazy about looking bad, that Im more cut than I was last week. Maybe b/c I sweat my ass off for 11-12 hours a day?
When I started the job last week I weighed 122.5 lbs (there is a nice digital scale in the stock room, why I have no idea) and the last 3 days I have weighed 118-118.5 lbs. I've only made it to the gym once in the last 7 days but am going to start going at 5:30 I guess before I go to work, just having a hard time adjusting to the new schedule.
Last thing the job isnt easy I get crazy pumps in my arms working on cars and doing it so damn fast! Im sore a lot when I go in and the biggest difference is in my quads and calves, Im thinking from bending down and laying under cars?
Sheeesh thats a lot, tried to make it as short as I could, just had a lot to say.
