In the first half of this year, I shifted into overdrive. I was eating a clean, vegetarian diet and lifting heavy. I put on over 20 pounds and added 3 inches to my chest, 2 inches to my hips, and an inch to my upper-arms.
In June I cut my calories down from 4200/day, and I dropped lifting for more swimming and running. I lost 15 of the 20 pounds gained, and -- though I was pretty cut for summer -- I am pretty much exactly where I began last year.
For my new year's resolution, I am ending 3 years as a vegetarian and moving toward an ethical pescatarian diet (i.e. eating only sustainable seafood). I feel like this will allow me to get a better diversity of fats and proteins. I'll also be able find something to eat in situations where I have previously gone without.
The goal for this year is to put on 30 pounds and keep them. What are your goals for the new year?
