Thanks again, Dan!
Bought the "Think Thin" bars from Whole Food today. Tried them out in place of one meal and they are VERY tastey and for that price, they should've came with a free lap dance!
I was surprised each bar has 2.5g Saturated fat though, but I get some food is better then none.

Back from the Master's!
Bars worked well, but inside the Master's I had to eat what they had. I used the bars mostly when I was in the airports.
All is well ... back to the gym Friday!

Feeling good. I started to feel pain in my shins (shin splints?), but my Uncle is a track coach and made some recommendations for me in terms of stretching ... worked well yesterday.
Workout was tough (probably because I was off a week), but I had plenty of energy throughout.
Dan, the other day you mentioned taking measurements for BF%:
Chest -
Midaxillary -
Bicep -
Abdominal -
Suprailiac -
Thigh-
Calf -
Tricep -
Do you have photo's of were this should be done? I'm clear on the Bicep, Tricep, but not the others.

About the BCAAs, i don't take them before or after. I take them 30 minutes into my workout (1 tsp). I take my Whey 1/2 hour before my workout and then immediately after my HIIT.

Feeling good. Shins are feeling better. Bad head-ache all day, but probably from allergies since mine get bad this time of year.
Getting what appear to be stretch marks on my shoulders. Not sure where they are coming from, but they disappeared during my week off.
Consumed all 6 meals; however, meal 3 was a cheat ... chicken caesar salad since my boss took me to lunch.

Strectch Marks?
Hmm..I remember reading somewhere in the forums that stretch marks are a sign of muscle growing. Not 100% sure though

I'm not sure if you'd call them stretch marks, although they look that way.
I took a week off and the top of my shoulders were clear. I worked-out Monday, no stretch marks.
Wednesday, I take off my shirt pre-workout ... no marks. After the workout, I have VERY long and red marks that look just like stretch marks. This morning, they had disappear somewhat.
I'm concerned that it might be something I'm wearing that's aggitating my skin, temporary stretch marks?, or perhaps I'm popping blond vessels or maybe this is some kinda of bruising from doing my calf presses.

Well, I have high histamine levels. histamine makes things turn red.
After I do anything where I rest the bar on my body or have heavy contact with anything...I have purple-red marks...they go away later. 
Yup, that sounds like it! Probably from the calf machine because 130+ pounds rests on my shoulders.

HIIT 5 minutes, but on the bike because my shins are still killing me despite my efforrts to stretch more. Dan, I know doing HIIT on a bike isn't nearly as effective as running. With that said, should I double the HIIT times? Right now I maintain 85 rpm's and my "resting" pace is Level 7 and my "sprinting" phase iss at Level 14. My hart beatt still hits 180.
Full workout in 40 minutes

No, you are looking for intensity not duration for the moment...and you still have it!
The bike or even swimming is fine!
If that's the case, I'm sticking to the bike! Much easier on my knees and shins! I sound old, huh?! haha
I can be much more intense on the bike (even swimming) rather then running, not sure why.
