Notes: Overhead presses were my lagging lift this week.  3 reps at 115lb was the bare minimum for that third set, and that was all I had in me at the time.  Even that follow-up set of 2 reps was pretty hard.  Friday's workout I had to cut short because I realized halfway through that I hadn't done my timesheet for the week.  I also usually go a little too hard on leg day, so I thought it couldn't hurt to take it easy for a change.  Weight's back up slightly.  I've been adding more carbohydrates in the form of squash and sweet potatoes, and just flat-out eating a lot more food than normal (though just adding the carbs may have strengthened my appetite, it's a common problem for me).  I'll need to either cut back or just embrace it and go on some kind of Winter bulking bender.  I admit that the latter has a certain appeal, but that's mostly because it'll end up being an excuse for gluttony.  I'll likely just cut back on the sweet potatoes and switch back to broccoli and carrots as my go-to vegetables.
