Day 63

Current Weight: 293
Approx Body Fat 32.6%
Blood Pressure: 142/82

Its hard to believe that the program is in the last 30 days. i have the insanity dvds and may try those next but i am also considering the p90x lean. I am unsure what is next. I have thoroughly enjoyed these workouts and this week was no exception. We went back to some of the starting routines and ill admit the difference is huge from the beginning   My strength is amazing and the push ups are no issue at all I actually enjoy them. I did however over train my shoulder this week and i am feeling a minor shoulder injury. i will be sure to work around the injury but while continue to press on. I admit i am saddened that i am in the last 30 days but i know the results i have will continue to build. The addition of the extra heavy weight band is amazing and my back is truly feeling the results. 

Diet this week was interesting. I found myself literally starving and craving really bad.  I have maintained very low carbs and caloric intake but i believe that was the issue. on the one night i did cheat the hunger went away and i felt more energetic. I think I am simply consuming too few calories and need to increase my intake. My body is slowing down with the weigh loss and while this may be normal I am worried i may be going into a starvation mode. with building more muscle I guess the body needs more energy.  I am going to make some adjustments this week and add some more lean foods to the diet. Also my water intake is still struggling, I need to really focus on that and do better. While I have improved over last week  I still am not at goal.

Supplementing is the same. I did add a new type of protein to my post workout and this whey based one actually has "revigor" in the mix now it is supposed to help with muscle repair, also this one is a little higher in carbs than my others but with the decrease in energy and increase in cravings I think it will work out ok. My bp is still slightly high and the body fat didn't move much but i still consider this week a success. I am just afraid that it is becoming routine and I may not be pushing as hard as I should. my goal for next week is to fix my water intake and push harder on my workouts.
