Ashley - The pressure is ON for this weeks weigh in. So far I am thrilled with the amount of effort I put in mon and tues night. I'm holding out for an "OH YEA" moment next weigh in. Either way
GO ORANGE Also with BL and 24, I am ashamed to admit that I have been watching too much TV. At least all the good shows are already over this week lol. I've been meaning to edit my pictures, because when I load them they come up HUGE. Like with scroll bars because you cant see the entire picture without moving. Yea, its kinda minor, but pictures have been a sensative issue for me for a while haha.
Anyone know a good program to resize images?
Belly - Weather was pretty nice. I really prefer the outdoor hike than compared to watching TV on a treadmill. Within the next month I need to find some trails a little closer by, so I'm motivated to get out there and mix up my routine. And dont discount your walks
The hills in the area you live by are pretty steep, and if youre walking those thats freaking tough.
Tutti - Thanks for the encouragement
Last week I took it really easy, too easy, and my weight barely fluctuated. Shocking right? Well, so far this week I am doing a LOT better. Had a good sweat-fest both nights, came home satisfied I did some WORK.
Jericho - Thanks for coming by. I see you all over these forums, pointing people in the right direction with information. Its always nice to know people care that you are working towards a goal; its more motivation to skip that greasy food or pick yourself up and hit the gym. On that note, Super bowl party this Sunday. Talk about a test.
Ate great, this week I have started incorporating a lot more protein into my diet by subbing a peice of fruit out at lunch and instead having a boiled egg. Also having a whey shake after work out. Sure its an extra 300~ cals, but its also 50g more protein I think I was missing before. I'll try this for a few weeks and see if its beneficial.
USING MY STEAMER! Just squeeze a wedge on lemon over any steamed veggies, and its good
Glad I bought it.
Gym last night consisted of legs/lowerbody. Got all my reps in, and the final set I pushed until failure. Feeling good, and I feel my body responding to the workouts. Anyways, watched Sportscenter for 2 miles on the treadmill, and got a NICE workout in. I was surprised how much it got me sweating. Felt great to go outside where it was chilly.
Tonight Im heading up with a friend after dinner to the gym. Focus is chest/ab/back. I think its gonna be a raquetball night for cardio (which I recommend highly!) and then the ol weight room. Will update tomorrow!
