Looking at my past week or so, I need to take in more calories from good sources. This will help me avoid cheats and put on a little mass. Last time I weighed myself I’m only down at most 2 pounds from where I started the challenge at. I don’t want to lose weight. I don’t necessarily want to put on a lot of mass either but I do want to increase strength. I think a little calorie increase will help increase strength and a little mass.
