You must have had more cheese than I did.

I went to the running room, I needed a zero lift pair mainly for squats and deadlifts. With a discount they were $170. The most I've ever spent, I usually get reeboks/Nike from winners apparently I should be proud of my deadliest, already lifting 95lbs only been doing those bad boys for 6 weeks, my arms are still like noodles though

I eat junk food whenever I like but so far it hasn't been too detrimental *evil grin*

The diet for cheese lovers is Atkins, especially if you happen to be partial to bacon too.

Confesssional: I often leave various house lights on over night, not necessarily on purpose, just can't be faffed. Neighbors must think we're mad. At least some are on timers. Note to self: sort it out.

Most powerlifters trained barefooted when I was into that sort of thing 20 or so years ago. Schwarzenegger can be seen squatting barefooted in Pumping Iron too.

Yeah, my trainer was getting me to take my trainers/runners off for squats but that was outlawed by the management, so now I have minimalist, zero rise or whatever they are shoes

I’m a sugar addict.

I’m addicted to sugar.

I hear sugar voices calling my name.

There I’ve said it.

Apparently Atkins leads to bad body odor. I'm with JerseyGirl although JG watch this:

I was doing well previously with cutting out sugar but since I had that chocolate I've been eating junk again, cake this evening. Poutine at lunch. Must show some restraint!

That's because sugar is a drug. Switch to 75%+ cocoa chocolate.

Where did you have your poutine, and was it worth it? That's my Achilles heel.
