Today was the first day I did the "overwhelming force" tactic. You can read more about it here.

Basically the gist is that you go all out with total force on something until you get it done. It requires a bigger upfront commitment, but in the end will save you time. Today was my first day using overwhelming force and I have to say it was a homerun, I smashed it out of the park. I made a schedule for what I was going to do for the day, and I followed it to a T. I made a list of the foods I was going to eat, and exactly when I was going to eat them. And I followed it up to a T as well. I think some things that really helped me was that all my clothes were lined up, my breakfast was ready to go. I just got up, ate a quick but filling breakfast and went right to the gym. I burned 840 calories in an hour (tieing my all time high, well actually breaking it really because it had taken me 1:05 to get 840 calories before). I went home and did some work.I kind of stagnated in the afternoon, but I was planning on it. So everything really just went according to plan. I went to the gym again the evening and burned 785 calories. Taking my total calories burned for the day at 1625. I had two good workouts, and I followed my scheduled diet perfectly. I am pretty excited about this day, but pretty pooped as well. Gotta go to bed soon!
