Height: 5′ 10″
Weight: 157 lbs. (+3 pounds)
BF% (Tanita scale): 25% (no change)
Waist: 29″ (-1″)
Hips: 37″ (-1″)

I did clean up my diet quite a bit and started to ease myself into “The Zone”. I had plenty of cheat days though, and even my clean days had me eating a lot more calories than I’ve been used to. I’m not really worried about the weight gain, as my clothes still fit fine and I hit PRs all month long. I am surprised by the inches lost, I’m not sure if I measured in the same spots. My lower belly is “puffier” than it was last month, and my breasts too (maybe that will stay…). Since I gained weight but stayed at the same level of bodyfat, I didn’t gain all that weight as fat – I built some muscle. According to my math, I added 2.25 pounds of muscle, and only .75 pounds of fat; I think that’s pretty sweet!

So my weight is back to “average/normal” for me. I’m going to clean up my eating this month – go back to more lean protein and veggies, cut back on the breads and pastas. Bodyshape-wise I’d like to ditch that “last ten pounds” and increase my muscle mass. Performance-wise I’d love to be able to keep hitting PRs every week and really be able to lift something to be proud of at the competition at the end of the month.
