Thanks for the links and stuff! And yeah I'm trying to eat more, but it's difficult for me to eat a lot :/. I always feel full really quickly, and if I try eating past that I feel really sick and like I need to vomit.

This is it. I think I look like a stick in the mirror once again. The bright side is I'm up 7lbs from when this happened last year--I was 163 when I decided to bulk last year, I'm 170 now.
The bulk begins. This time I'm going really slow so I don't get really fat--starting at 2700 and going up if I need to. I bulked at around 3500 last year and gained a lot of fat in a few months, so the max I'm willing to go to is 3000.
*Although I've decided that I'm a bodybuilder and I'm doing this mostly for the vanity now, I'm still gonna be keeping track of my main lifts and competing for SJSU. My lifts went down considerably during my cut, besides my bench. Hopefully I make progress as I hammer my delts because I am so insecure about my rear delts I swear
BENCH: 255 (up from 245)
SQUAT: 365 (down from 385)
DEADLIFT: 455 (down from 495)
TOTAL: 1075 (down from 1125)

My numbers have been solid recently. I'm about a month out from a meet on October 26.
I've been benching 195x8, 225x3, 210x6. Squat 305x8, 325x6, 345x3. Deadlift 425x6, 445x3 (still struggling, my form is way off from practicing conventional so much and I've been trying to fix it).
Aiming for 260/395/515 (1270) at 181 at the meet. I'm positive my deadlift will shoot right back up once I dial down my form.

All 1RM
BENCH: 225
DEADLIFT: 350
SQUAT: ??? (I don't squat. No good squat rack.)
OHP: 100 x 8, so probably 125? 135?
Considering these numbers, I'd say I'm pretty close to the 1000 pound club.

Gained 4 pounds in 2 months. The ideal bulk is real (0.5 lbs/week). Sitting at 177 as of 10 minutes ago.
Squats have been going okay, bench going better, deadlift going pretty badly. My last few sets:
SQUAT: 330x6, 4 sets
DEADLIFT: 405x8, 3 sets
BENCH: 225x3, 4 sets, 215x3, 1 set
11 days out from the meet. My goals are still 260/395/515, but I'm a little worried about my deadlift. I'm gonna do a few 1RM tests this week and then deload to see where I'm sitting.

Benched a few singles today, I was going to open at 225 for the meet but I think I'll go to 235. 225 was super easy even with a decent pause at the bottom, 235 went up slower but it wasn't hard. Also for those of you with trouble locking out their bench, I recommend paused half-reps. Did 155x5 of those with a 3-second pause and it was pretty tough.
I'm gonna try to open 445 deadlift, probably 345-355 squat.
*Deadlift singles earlier this morning. 425 was startlingly hard, but I probably just did something wrong when breaking it off the floor because 445 was easy enough. Squat singles tomorrow, hopefully I can open 355 or higher considering I did 330x6 on Thursday.
**Switched to low bar and put up 385 with a belt, so that's what I'm gonna open with. Everything below that felt super easy, and I didn't lose much speed on 385.
FINALLY HAVE SOME NEW MEET GOALS
BENCH: 265
SQUAT: 425, realistically if 385 is 90% of my max, and I think it might be even less than that
DEADLIFT: 485, not feeling good about it but we'll see
TOTAL: 1175, but I will go for 1200 even if I'm not so confident in my deadlift. My bench and squat are on point right now so I have no doubt I can set up a good total with them.

Two weekend backpacking trips in the last three weeks. This was an unseasonably nice weekend. Soon the cold sets in and I wonder what the hell I'm doing every time I hike. 32 Miles between the two trips and an awful lot of Clif bars.

Third place. Not bad, but I'm really upset because I choked really hard on my deadlift.

Pros: I've had some serious results and people who haven't seen me in a while can't believe it's the same stick-thin guy they knew at the start of the year.
Cons: Food is ruling my life to the point where I feel overwhelming guilt if I eat something outside my diet plan. Yet I still eat it.

Srs though, tested my 1 rep max for squats for the first time ever today. Managed 150kg and stopped. I went through 110,120,130, and 140 to get there so I was getting tired.

I went from 55x8 to 75x8 on incline DBs in a few months. Seems to be transferring over to my flat barbell bench, since I did 200x4x8 with some effort today. Meet in January. Hoping for 275.
Also I've been doing a lot of work for my shoulders recently. Once a week I'll do OHP 5x5 and add 5 lbs every time I can successfully do the full 5x5. I do 3 push presses for every rep I fail otherwise and try the same weight the next week--I'm on 120 right now. Then I'll do complexes of push press-power jerk-split jerk to failure. I can get up to like 185 on that, but my jerk technique is shit so I'm hoping to improve rapidly once I fix that.
