Cheers mate, I live just outside the greater london area, in Essex.

Cardio: 35 mins of cycling pre-breakfast very low intensity.
Weight: 231lbs so down about 5 lbs from start of my cut 2 weeks ago, which is pretty fast loss, I'll attribute it to coming off a long bulk, T3 is still elavated.

Friend recommended that I record my diet as well so I can see what needs to cut back later on, if anything.

I set an alarm every night for 3 am so I can take Animal Nitro.
Meal 1: 12 egg whites
Meal 2: 10oz Chicken 60g oatmeal
Meal 3: 10oz of Tuna (I would actually rather eat shit, shame it ain't as nutritious)
Meal 4: 8oz Steak
Meal 5: 10oz Chicken 50g brown rice
Meal 6: 8 egg whites
Meal 7: 2 scoops of ONs Whey with water

No milk for 12 days, which is good I suppose as I was fuckin' addicted to it.

I make that to be just over 400 protein, 70 carbs 15 fat.

Back/Biceps/Calves:
It was one of those days when I can just tell it isn't going to be a great workout, and as I started Animal Pump again I was bouncin' off the fuckin' walls at the beginning. So I kept it light(ish) even for a cut and had a decent workout.

215 x 12

Also I read the Journey on the main page today, the one with Frank McGrath, as it's supposed to be motivational and interesting. Yet all I see is 18 weeks of bitching about life, not sure if anyone else picked up on how annoying this is; maybe it's just me.

SHIT workout two utter ****s, who I am getting banned from the fucking gym, ruined it. They were doing fucking deads in the one Squat rack and when asked how many sets have you got they replied ' alot so you might as well fuck off' then 'you shouldn't be here fuck off home' etc and all this bullshit which was unprovoked then after me and partner asking why they can't dead of the floor then told us they'd smash our faces and 'we'd better watch ourselves in the carpark'. Then spent 30 minutes doing 2 sets and spending the rest of the time on their fucking phones, I would have gone and got someone to kick them out right then but it was pretty busy and that would be such a stupid thing to do.
