Good job man…..feels good whenever you’ve had a long layoff, whether from health or life challenges, to get back in the groove and get those first couple of weeks under your belt. That’s when you start feeling the satisfaction of the pumps, the small gradual changes in body composition, and your strength starting to come back.
Keep killing it bro, you’ll get back to where you want to be. That steady progression is how we meet our goals.👍

I am feeling the changes. But feel so far off the guy who hung out with Branch Warren and Chris Bumstead.
 
Give it some time, stay consistent and that guy will be back soon!!

That is what I am doing. But it feels like such a fall from grace, to go from Hanging Out with the best to starting all over. But I will be back and better than before
 
I'm Sure You Will !!

How does your nutrition look ?
 
How does your nutrition look ?
Alot better actually since getting divorced. But for a while I wasn't eating at all. I was literally eating like 3-400 calories a day. I have to start tracking food again, but breakfast is normally 3 eggs scrambled with onions, peppers, tomatoes. Sausage links or patties, and grits. Lunch depends on if working or not, and dinner again depends on if working or not. But I have been doing alot of cooking. I will try to drop a few pics of things I cook now. But I will start tracking food again, and putting pics of food in my log again.
 
Just make sure you are getting enough Protein!!
 
Here are a few meals I have made since being on my own

One of my favorite meals !!
 
I always think I like salmon, until I’ve eaten it 3 days in a row and day 4 comes - I’m totally over it by then. Haven’t bought any the last couple weeks because of it honestly.

I usually just bake it with some Cajun spice mix rubbed on and it’s awesome when fresh or day two, especially with sushi rice & soy sauce.

I personally like and can eat everyday fish of any kind.
 
Yeah I say I could eat it everyday, I haven’t really tried Salmon every day, but I have had a cut that I ate Tuna in some kind of salad or whole grain sandwich for lunch, and different types of fish and vegetables for dinner, for 8 weeks. Have to admit that did get old, but I got shredded. I won’t do that one again…I felt great, but I do have to at least have some chicken.
 
I have been eating a can of tuna about every other day for the last month or two. I have not got tired of it yet.

Starting to increase the weight…..looks like a good workout. I’m sure you’re starting to feel that satisfaction of things starting to trend back to normal the way you seem to be progressing.👍
 
Another great looking workout!

Things are seeming to come back slowly
 
Think he means rocket’s blood mercury content from all that tuna fish lol

Yes this lol. Canned tuna is a great high-protein quick option & I always keep it around, but a very poor staple food choice due to the mercury elevations you’ll experience.

FDA says that 8-12oz per week is generally considered safe for routine consumption. So basically one big boy can/meal a week.

I have a 3.25oz can every other day so I should be good !!
 
So Sad !

Are you doing anything for your core ?
 
Yo, Iconic has an Ultra-hard logging opp up since Tuesday didn't know if you saw. That's some free gains right there. Don't know if you applied, I'm going to run their neuro-melatonin here in May perhaps (reduce my insomniac valium use).
