Yesterday was my first official "cheat day" on my diet. Of course that was mainly because it was Super Bowl Sunday. Who would want to try and diet during the Super Bowl?

it really felt good, after a week of being good and turning down my usual food, to finally get some chicken strips, french fries, and beer....lots of beer.

I made up for it a little bit today though. I hit the gym first thing after waking up this morning to burn off some of those Super Bowl calories. Cardio and weights baby. I also started a new workout plan today, a 12 week plan that I found on BodyBuilding.com that is supposed to help you "build your ideal body." Since that's the goal of this diet, I figure it's an appropriate workout plan.

The plan is actually part of a 12 Weeks to Your Future Physique plan that includes diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes. Since I'm sticking with the Slim-Fast plan for the time being I'm just borrowing the workout portion. Fortunately, all of the exercises are pretty basic lifts that I'm familiar with from when I actually was in relatively good shape.
