30lbs was too easy - I could definitely jack up the weight to 35lbs next time for 6-7 reps.

40lbX6
40lbX5 (failed on the 5th rep)
Overall, a really good workout. I don't feel sore yet, but it sometimes takes a good 48 hrs for the soreness to kick in. I have been jacking up the protein intake too, and I know that makes a world of difference in recovery. The scale says I lost 2 pounds since Monday, but I really just think its water weight from the carb loading that I do on the weekends. I probably eat more carbohydrates and calories between Saturday and Sunday than I do Monday through Friday COMBINED. I know exactly what it is, too, it's alcohol. Alcohol decreases my judgement so I end up doing the whole late-night binge which inevitably carries over into the next day. I have trouble fasting on days where I have a hangover, or days where I've had any alcohol the night before. To be totally honest, alcohol is what is standing in the way of my goal.... Why does it have to be soooooo good?! Pumpkin beers with sugar and cinnamon on the rim, octoberfest.....it is just way too good to pass up.
