I think today was the cleanest I've eaten from morning till evening. Also, it helps that all my fish was defrosted by this morning and ready to throw in the oven. Cravings still dominate my thoughts but I'm working through it and constantly looking at a list I made to remind me of what my goals are and the benefits of being in control.

This was my first time doing Front Squats-EVER! I'll admit that I didn't feel as though I'd be able to perform this movement correctly so I watched as many videos that I can possibly find before I went to the gym. My first two warms consisted of a few reps with just the bar. As it turns out, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I always watched others in the gym do it and I would wonder, "how does that NOT roll off of you?" At any rate, I added weight and I immediately felt the difference. If it wasn't for the pressure I felt against my shoulders, I'd want to do FRONT SQUATS only for my quads because...that's where I felt it the most...IN MY QUADS. I stayed at 185 and I'll see how 205 feels next week...maybe even 225?

I looked up a picture of a "trap bar." I have seen it but never tried it. Unfortunately, it's not at the gym I went to today.
