In an ideal setup I only give myself real sugar before/after workouts so beforehand I have protein shake, banana, and then start my energy drink on the way there and finish it during the workout. Then more protein and gatorade after. The pie was just thrown in because it was around, normally I would eat fruit but I had already eaten an apple and two bananas today which is more than enough. I like to give myself one good cheat meal at least every couple of days and try to work it in strategically, usually after a workout or a long day of work. It just involves a lot of personal adjustments, for example I got subway yesterday on wheat and instead of eating it all at once with a giant glass of milk I spread it into two meals with 8 oz. of milk each time, and those were my last carb meals of the day. After my carb cutoff I use things like cheese and ranch dressing fairly liberally, as it helps me get the calories up while the carbs aren't around so my insulin is low.

I may have missed this earlier on in your log but what would a typical days food intake look like and a breakdown in cals/protein/fat/carbs ?

i look forward to being done with football one day and getting into mma shape

I rolled one day of jiu jitsu at the training center and it was extremely fun. The best form of cardio I could imagine. I free rolled for 30-40 minutes with a couple different guys and only small breaks in between. I was completely dead afterwards. I have a new respect for fighters because I don't know how they can weight train and train mma and still allow for recovery.

Protein around 350. Carbs, fats, and cals I really couldn't tell you. I'm still doing 8 meals a day carb cutoff after the last 5 or 6 meals. I keep the framework the same and then I will take carb meals off as necessary. I add in extra cheat meals in when I feel depleted or when I notice I've lost a couple lbs (went on kind of a binge yesterday).
 
Yesterday I looked at my pics from the beginning of this log and was disgusted. That tells me I've come quite a ways. Physically I am ready for new pics to be taken. I think you guys will be impressed with the changes. Just have to remind my gf to bring her digital over next time and I'll get some more pics up.
