up the fish oil to 6-8 a day...

on the ratios...you gotta figure out what's good for you...but if you look at most "leaning out" diets....carbs are tapered after breakfast.

I was going to ask you where your fat was coming from :D

If your really having a hard time with the diet I would say don't do it. I find alot of the time a person's mind set has to be in it or they will not see the results they want to ( not matter what type of diet ). So just wait a bit .

The actual taste of the food and the self discipline part wasn't the problem. I'm having trouble with the bad side effects.

Why so high with the fish oil?

Well I've decided this week is going to be a deload so I'm dropping the cals down to around 2200 NTD and 2500 TD. I'll see if the dropped amount of carbs helps.

6-8g of fish oil per day isn't "high". It's on the mid-lower end of the scale.

Volume Deload

BW: 186.2lb

Bench
bar x 10
135lb x 5
165lb x 3
185lb x 2
205lb x 1
215lb x 1
225lb x 1
235lb x 1

235lb went up pretty solid. I'm pretty confident I should have 240 or 245 (old PR).

Squats
bw 2x5
bar x 5
135lb x 5
185lb x 3
225lb x 1
255lb x 1
265lb 2x1

Felt pretty good. Could probably have 275lb if I warmed up correctly. 280lb is my old PR.

Standing Rows
165lb 5x3

I might just continue this as a 5x3.

Thoughts

Well despite a whole 3 day weekend of random shitty eating I still dropped a bit of weight. I'm thinking I'll drop another 1lb or so this week on the deload with the reduced cals... I'm going to get my lazy ass back on the tmill too.

I still need to adjust my diet. I think I may try a 40-20-40 (P-C-F) ratio and see if that helps my regularness.
