731 days
2 years of logging. Every single day, I've been here. 6 years ago I hit my highest weight, 245 pounds. I didn't see myself as being that big, until I got my wedding pictures back. I broke down and cried over how big I was. Feeling tired and run down all the time, I was determined to make a change. Just by cutting down on…

What to expect the first week of a bulk?
I'm starting my first bulk in over a decade (first one was to regain lost muscle due to a severe knee injury). Any ideas on what I can expect?

What a difference a year makes!

Shoes?
What shoes (if any) is everyone wearing? I tried the first couple workouts in barefeet, and then I tried wearing my running shoes. What a difference! I can push so much harder:) I'm on carpet, and I was a bit worried about my shoes catching, but so far so good.
