Decided to track my diet a bit closer, i will attempt to keep a daily kcals log.
Current plan : bulk 500kcals on lifting days , cut 500kcal all other days.

26 October 2012:

No workout.
Expenditure : ~2000kcals
Income : ~2300 kcals
So instead of cutting 500 i bulked 300 , FAIL!  :uhhhfacepalm:

28 October 2012:

No workout

Diet:
Expenditure : ~2000kcals
Income : ~1600 kcals
Goal was -500 , achieved -400, i will consider +-100kcals as goal achieved, finally!

So after tracking my diet closer the last 3 days i tend to conclude that i was seriously underestimating my caloric income, for years!  :uhhhfacepalm:
But this is actually good , because it means i have great room for body recomposition. This is gonna be interesting...
