I want to cut with you guys also, I have been on my doing the.. (low carb/ high fat/ high protein)Now I am on a mod fat, still low carb, and a high protein (try for 35g. at each meal..)~~& following a lot of the journals in this section and getting great ideas..and learning more and more everyday!
Anyway.. I am 5'5, I weight 120-122, I will get my bf taken at the gym this morning...
I have a very stong physique.. small waist, just need to work a little harder on my legs.. shed the little fat on them. I am thinking of competing in a fitness contest MAYBE! I just don't know If I have the guts to get onstage. All my friends say I should, that I would do great, but I'm shy!
There is a Ms. Fitness in Houston, this august though!?!
Sooo here I go~ And Please~ ALL COMMENTS & THOUGHTS ARE MORE THAN WELCOME!!!
Posted by: Princess
Also... I workout 5 days a week...sometimes 4!~ But this is the past... NOW I am going to do a 6 day program..and sundays will be rest day!
If you're doing legs twice a week...are you splitting hams/quads?
Posted by: Princess

Hi P! Welcome to the CSH
Saturday = Chest ?
DP
Posted by: Princess
Thank you DP!
I never train my chest b/c I have implants.. but I guess I can start.. it always feels weird when I train them!
Posted by: Britney
Princess, its doesnt matter whether or not you have implants. Think of how many fitness figures have them! You should continue training chest, even if it means lightly. Concentrating on Flyes more so than "benching." Do you have submuscular implants?
Posted by: Princess
Thanks Britney~ Your right, there are a lot of fitness figures who have them! I just don't want to look like a guy! I get thick fast up in my shoulders & Arms..
I'll just do them light
They are UNDER my Muscle!

P, You may want to try brown instead or "steamed" rice (assumption is white, not the cooking?), berries in your shake and more veggies!
You need phytonutrients!
DP
Posted by: Stacey
Dr. Pain~ Hey! Thank you for commenting in my journal.. please keep the comments coming!!!! I appreciate it!
I do eat brown rice when I'm at home.. that 'steamed' rice was at a restaurant w/ my mom.. soo no more steamed rice???
I Always put frozen strawberries (3,4, or 5) in my shakes.. I was out this weekend.. but refer to my other journals to see that I do.. OHH Can I add 2 cherries to my shakes??? I Tried this a few minutes ago (I'm at home now..with FOOD!!!) and It tasted good!!??? What about that???
I do need more veggies..totally agree...this weekend and Today was horrible in the veggie range!!
THANK YOU!

Oh honey, I'm so sorry you are not feeling well!!
Don't worry about that bagel babe, just let your body heal.. Is it another cyst? Maybe you should rest for a few days, stay at home and just relax..
Take care sugar, hope you're feeling better soon!
