Going for a cycle

Looking good man, nice and lean. Has the scale gone up at all yet?

Cheers, I'm just trying to get my daily calories in the sweet spot at the moment. I was 79.3kg yesterday and today so I'm up 2kg in 10 days. I seem to be as lean as when I started, maybe even slightly leaner so I bumped the calories up a little bit today.  I have been eating a lot cleaner and I'm watching my sodium levels so that could have a bit to do with why my weight has increased but there isn't any visible difference.
