Still on

Pics and measurements for September should be coming within the week. I'm making progress. There's nothing dramatic, but my chest is tighter and I can see a difference. I may have to change my weight goal by the end of the contest due to my build but I'll wait at least another month before I do anything official. The ultimate goal of how I want to look isn't changing.

Today was a heavy workout day (I guess it makes up for yesterday). Thirty dips, thirty sit-ups, thirty curls at 20lbs (9kg) on each arm, and maybe some push-ups before i go to bed. Yeah, it's not really heavy, but it's a big jump from just doing the dips. Over the past few days I've been doing push-ups in addition to the dips to work the whole pectoral area rather than what feels like just one muscle. With any luck I'll keep on exercising more

Food is staying pretty much the same. Whole wheat bread, turkey, baby spinach, and mustard on sandwiches; salad with olive oil and apple cider vinegar; carrots, apples, and applesauce for snacks; lighter fare with fruits and veggies at restaurants. There's other stuff in there, but nothing too far one way or the other. The big thing is that I've eliminated most of the empty calories in my diet
