Great to see other people as hyped about a cleaner lifestyle. And i will say i will drink 1 or 2 beers if i go out, which is maybe 2 nights a month and i only do that so i dont look like a fucking weird stalker hahah. Usually just order unsweet tea and sip on that. but other than that, im very strict. hell im watching the clock all day long timing and eating my meals every 2 to 3 hours on the button.

i know i drive other people nuts with this lifestyle always talking about it, planning meals etc. but, eating clean and pushing yourself in the gym changes your life, i nearly get sick to my stomach when i see these huge ass lines at the drive thru at mcdonalds.

Packing my meals in the morning gets me excited....its actually made me despise going out, which i need to do since its healthy having human interaction but i just dont want anything to throw me off course.

hell i tried to have a cheat day this past sunday...and i ate a burger and like 4 fries...first thing i got home i said, fuck this im gonna go burn this shit off (even though i know my body will easily burn it) so i hit the gym, did some HIIT and hit the weights...

almost like im heading down the same path as a anorexic but, fuck it! i look great and im happy....and when you can be happy in life, keep doing what you are doing

When I first started working out in March I was 230 lbs and had really no idea what I was doing. I learned a little about dropping weight and how to do it while remaining healthy. I dropped down to around 185 and then began getting serious about gaining muscle mass, and getting my body more muscular.

I was talking to a few people about what they take, and ultimately decided to use the Vitamin Shopp brands of Creatine Monohydrate and Cell Tech along with BCAA's. After using these for a few months I gained weight and became much leaner but felt like I hit a wall around 200lbs. After doing more research and finding out how much more annoying using this type of Creatine was, with the loading phase and just annoyance of taking it all the time I recently, about 2 weeks ago switched to BSN's Cellmass. I have noticed some results pretty quickly, with fuller muscle and lack of soreness. I have also been using NoXplode as well with the Cellmass and have enjoyed the results, and ofcourse the lack of a loading phase helps.

I was told in the beginning just to eat mass protein, stay away from carbs unless it was after a work out and followed that for a long time. Now after reading the book by Chris Aceto Championship Bodybuilding, I have learned alot more about what to eat, how much of it, and when to eat it. I am around 200 lbs so I try to eat around 275 - 300 grams of protein a day, split my carbs up evenly throughout the day with the most being at breakfast and after a workout. SO far with the new eating regimen and eating more around 5-6 times a day, with a snack here or there I feel alot better and think I am taking a step in the right direction in getting bigger, and adding more good mass.

Comments or suggestions by all of you are welcomed. Thanks

I feel so good now. I don't drink anymore, don't eat take out, and eat clean. I used to feel bloated after I ate and now I feel so much better.
