Welcome to my journal! First of all, let me just state that you will probably find lots of errors in my daily regimen. I train too much or don’t eat enough, but I’m learning. For the past 5 years I’ve programmed myself to eat only healthy food and drastically cut back on alcohol. I eventually accumulated every piece of gym equipment I could ever possibly need. So, I definitely have no excuse for slacking. I take supplements, protein powders, bars, and have relied on them since I turned 20. Perhaps it’s all in my mind, but I believe it helped me achieve my goals. I’m not a competitor, personal trainer, or anything of the sort. I just love working out and keeping my physique healthy, so if you decide to critique my journal try not to be too harsh!! 
| step 1: drink more water |

WOW...with the cardio and so little food...do you find you are hungry? Just asking b/c I think your pcalories are quite low. |

Originally posted by Canadian Virgo Drink even more water!? I'll try! (Man...that's a lot of trips to the bathroom!) No, I'm not usually too hungry...in fact I very bad for not getting all of my meals in everyday. I never claimed to be a fitness model. I'm 5'7" and 140 lbs (Goal - 130lbs) BF is 25% (Goal - 19%) |
After my workouts, I wait an hour before eating and always workout on an empty stomach, so that's more than 5 hours without a meal. Like I said I have a lot to learn! (Wow, I always wondered why I never had gotten any results.)

CV! Step 2) Turn that exercise equipment around and face it towards a TV!! How can you sit on the elliptical trainer (or any of that stuff for that matter) and stare at a wall for half an hour?! Id go nuts! |
I have to get used to eating more food, in fact what I'm eating now is a lot compared to usual. Another thing, I guess I'm somewhat fat phobic, because I don't have butter or flax oil. (On my list to get) I have Becel Margarine on the other hand...is that bad?

(On my list to get) I have Becel Margarine on the other hand...is that bad? Why Butter is Better Type of Dietary Fat Key to Heart Risk Trans Fat Much Worse for You Than Saturated Fat Anyways, I've had 2 meals so far today (won't post until later though) and I'm going to try to fix my nutrition. As for protein bars, I have 11 MesoTech (I only eat half at a time.) and 11 NitroTech currently stocked in my cupboard. This will be the last time I spend $50 a box on these. Yeah, I know...that damn Muscletech advertising really got to me!  |
Anyways, yuck.... emphasis on yuck! ---->| All margarines are made from assorted vegetable oils that have been heated to extremely high temperatures. This insures that the oils will become rancid. After that, a nickel catalyst is added, along with hydrogen atoms, to solidify it. Nickel is a toxic heavy metal and amounts always remain in the finished product. Finally, deodorants and colorings are added to remove margarine's horrible smell (from the rancid oils) and unappetizing grey color..." |
I'm not eating anymore bars this week!)
