Height 5'11 weight 215lbs body fat probably around 25 percent i'm really not sure though (body dysmorphia)
Diet is roughly 3000 cal a day. Breakfast i have been doing a few raw eggs a lot idk why. I also like to do a protein bar or protein shake with whole milk and a piece of fruit. Lunch is mostly baked chicken breast for lunch with rice or quinoa and tons of spinach salad with sweet peppers. I sometimes do red meat or salmon. Have been fairly good about eating whole foods other than canned tuna. Dinner Is also a lot of chicken / eggs / rice / quinoa / spinach salad. Doing a lot of fruit and kale smoothies as snacks I also eat cans of tuna a lot as snacks or peanut butter straight from the jar and tons of bananas.
The first two months of weight lifting I cut down from 250lbs to 208 lbs and then the second two months bulked to 218 lbs. Ideally i'd like to be around 200lbs and a LOT stronger with a better aesthetic. My biggest struggle is sleep as my job and sober living program only afford me 5 and a half hours a night 6 days a week. Compared to when I started (had never lifted weights in my life) I have come really really far strength wise in a short amount of time even if my lifts aren't huge.
Really appreciate all the positive feedback guys hope this log is sufficient
