Week 130
Wasn't feeling good (car sick and low sleep) so I cut my workout short. Still managed to increase on some lifts.
Very disappointed in my inability to resist overeating. I should be at like 188lbs by now. Recently I've also been procrastinating with my schoolwork like crazy... the complete opposite of doing something crazy like passing my CISSP in 5 weeks. Been doing some reading and there could be an underlying issue that is causing both. Has to do with reward pathways to the brain and stuff... low dopamine causes procrastination by way of lowering motivation. Low motivation makes it harder to resist food as well when cutting (think low will power!).
Low dopamine could be caused by lack of sleep and other things.
