A friend and I are going to start a month long cutting phase.  I have been working over the past 6 months or so to bulk up and get stronger and now feel that it is time to make a good effort at stripping off some layers of fat.  Why before Christmas would I want to do such a thing?  I am thinking that if I can go into Christmas in better shape than I currently am two things should happen.  One, above all else, if I start Christmas eating lighter than I am today then I shouldn’t blimp up anywhere near what I currently weigh.  But even better, I am hoping that after spending a month eating bland low-carb food shedding fat on a daily basis that when it is time to gorge on Christmas goodies I will be less inclined to want to ruin all of my progress.

We will see how it goes.  If I can seen any noticeable gain over the next few weeks I will be sure to post some pics.
