Update!

Eating perfect takes it's toll.  I've been grumpy here and there, and unsatisfied with my food.  I have to try so hard to finish the plate of cardboard in front of me for most meals, which I've never had a problem with.  Before we get into the health stuff, I just want to take a moment to reminisce on the delicious food I used to enjoy.  This is what I crave most on the days where my diet drives me insane.

TORPASTAAAAAAAA!!

The place is even called "devine pasta-bilities."  How can you go wrong with something so hilarious and delicious?

Just a short update on my diet and workout progress...just to keep track!  Keep in mind I'm attempting to gain some size, while minimizing my fat gain.  I don't mind taking a little longer to gain some muscle mass if the secondary effect is that I still have a 3.5-pack.

Eating like this sucks, and planning my life around my workouts sucks too, but there's nothing better than making strides to further your progress toward your goal and actually physically seeing it happen.  You mirin'?
