but I will change my goals every 2 months and I will change up my training at this time too, if needed, this will be done for as long as it takes 
If I find 2 sets aren’t enough, I’ll bump it up a set.........

...........Seems like the only thing I can keep down is H2O

........cardio, abs, butt, 6days a week, break up the UB and legs over 5 or 6 days, I like what I had then someone suggested over the phone about push/pull (?) working chest and tri's, not chest and bi's, grrrrrrrrrrrr, you would think I would know this better, I've done so much fuggin reading on this

Originally posted by CaptainDeadlift It's the little things in life that bring us such joy! Triceps will be weaker if doing them after chest rather than after back. I personally prefer back/tris and chest/bis for just this reason. If you're going to work each body part twice a week, I'd go for chest/tris together and back/bis together, ie, your basic push/pull split. Put shoulders with chest/tris in this case. |
I only want to work UB parts once per week, legs 2 or 3 times, and as you know, abs/butt 5 or 6, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, now I'm really f**king confused, simplicity is a must for me right now, it's easy for me to fuck everything up by switching things around and I don't want to do that this time, it will stop me from staying focused
|
Originally posted by CaptainDeadlift I just went back and reread the very first post in this journal. That split looks good for the goals that you just stated. It also looks simple enough. I'd go with that for at least 3 weeks and see how it goes. Then make adjustments if needed. |

Originally posted by nikegurl hi katie. here's an idea (i'm trying it too). every day just do the right things. if an entire day is too much go meal to meal. eat what you should when you should. go to the gym and give your best effort. don't beat yourself up about what you weight. don't wonder why you aren't lifting more. just keep putting one foot in front of the other. eventually you'll have enough days of eating right and working out "banked" that you'll be seeing plenty of progress and feeling good. don't dwell on what's wrong. try not to wonder what february or march will bring. just start "collecting" days where you did the right things for yourself and you're gonna get there.

Originally posted by nikegurl i never remember it myself but i'm gonna try. i've been "bitchin'" about how i look and my failure to stick to my eating plan for practically a year. if i had just taken the necessary steps each day instead of moaning and procrastinating etc i'd have made some major progress by now. last night when i went back to the gym i was feeling weak and depressed by how weak i'd gotten. but i'm just gonna plow forward and try not to think about that. if i keep going and doing the workouts and eating as planned one day i'll be surpassing where i was when i started slacking... |

Oh and good morning babe

Originally posted by hardasnails1973 Diet is looking alot better I would mainly stay with shakes pre and post workout, and may be one during the day time . Replace one of the shakes with may be a can of tuna fish or 3 oz chicken with some 1 TBSP safflower mayonaise or 1 tsp olive oil with some greens. and you'll be good to go !! get some variety in there. Ck out low carb wraps they rock with some chicken and some salsa be good to go |
and SALSA, awesome
|
Originally posted by Sapphire Mmmm low carb wraps! I am gonna look for those too!
|
, going to bed early tonight, I'll get some rest and see if it helps....
Can I have these on my diet, here's the NF. for 1 serving (3 rods)Cals 110, Fat 1g, Carb 22g, Fiber 1g, Sugars 1g, Protein 3g, it has corn syrup in it.
Hitting the sack early sounds good to me!!!

Originally posted by CaptainDeadlift Is that really enough calories? I know you're trying to lose weight, but that number seems excessively low. |
but it's alot better than 400 cals which is what I used to eat a day, I range from 1200 to 1400 now, probably should try and bump it up even more but it's taken me a 10 months just to get to where I am now, remember I was an undereater and stopped my metab for years, I'm just starting to develop an appetite again after f**king off this summer and not eating again, grrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I don't feel like I have been very consistent lately, working on changing that
|
Originally posted by Sapphire I think I want a day where I bump up my calories signficantly too!! YIPPEE!! FOOD!! Let's go out to dinner Katie!! ITALIAN!!!
|
I love Italian food, but pasta has sooooooo many carbs
|
Originally posted by katie64 No, I stay pretty much the same, I'm actually reading alot of others journals to see what I can add, I think I need to double my protein shakes (16oz.) and add oatmeal instead of the banana, post w/o........it's been a little off again this week because of not feeling well, and my body is in shock still from finding out my w8 Plus I haven't been taken my fish oil caps, which lowered my fat content I don't feel like I have been very consistent lately, working on changing that
|
Thanks for peeking in on me! I've been out of sorts the last couple days but I'm better today!
Lastly, NO COMPUTER after the kids are off either!!! Trust me, you'll thank me for that!
|
Originally posted by atherjen make those small changes as you can. they'll pay off all together. the oats would be a much better choice after training. the banana(fructose) is going to replinish liver glycogen stores first rather than muscle. adding another scoop of protein like you said is easy and not too filling. and try to get in those fishoil caps! need to get some more healthy fats in there! it takes time to get things right! your doing good!
|
Someone told me it's better to take fish oil on an empty stomach, it's absorbed better, what do you think???? Glad your doing better, I'll be so glad when this sickness is out of my house, my little Shauny is sick now........ I'm going to bleach the hell out of my house today, hehe, I use bleach on everything, even my dishes just my way of thinking and looking at what's in my head..........

Originally posted by david Hey Ba-beh! Good hearing from you (voice-wise) last night! I hope what I said "food-wise" helps you a little better. Hey, it's worth a shot and if all else fails, then you can revert back to what you we're doing! Also, my advice of eat first upon waking, shuffling the kids off to their destination and then, DEVOTE your cardio/workout for an hour or so. Guess what? You get to eat 20 mins afterwards! Lastly, NO COMPUTER after the kids are off either!!! Trust me, you'll thank me for that!NOW, what was that phrase I kept saying to you last night?? OK, getting back to YOU!!
|
Yep I even made a little schedule for myself regarding my daily routine, something about list 
they seem to help me alot, ever see the movie "Colored Purple" I think that's the full title, Oprah was in it, well one of the girls was learning to read so she had little notes all over the place with the word written on it for each thing the note was attached to, anyway, maybe I should do that, hahaha, I've always been a visual/hands on learner, know what I mean................trust you isn't that what all men say, LMAO, j/k
it's ok probably the last time.......... I know my plan(goals) don't seem to fit at a BB board, I probably don't even belong here but this was the first board I came to, plus my eventual plan is to possibly BB and even if I don't do it, I want to look like I do, and NO I'm not whining, just prioritizing..

Originally posted by katie64 Well I've had a real shitty weekend diet and training wise, always starting over after the weekends, that's my new mini-goal to actually make it through the weekend as planned.......I'm going to be off line for a few days, chat with ya when I get back, someone is coming to visit it's ok probably the last time..........I've decided to fast tomorrow (Monday)......need to clean out and meditate, I've actually never made it a whole day, I crack around 8pm, proabably should go to bed at that time, then I would make it, the meditation is something I've done for years, really helps me get centered, if I could only think of doing it b4 I feel totally whacked out. Anyway, I've decided to go back to my Keto, I'm sure alot of you don't think it's good for me but it works very well, I will carb up on Sundays as previously planned, my focus for the next few weeks will be on my diet, I will continue training, definitely cardio, but I will not freak out if I miss a day, my w8 loss is my first goal, training my body to get back in shape is my second goal, I know they work together but this is the way it has to be for me right now I know my plan(goals) don't seem to fit at a BB board, I probably don't even belong here but this was the first board I came to, plus my eventual plan is to possibly BB and even if I don't do it, I want to look like I do, and NO I'm not whining, just prioritizing..

TKD is carbing up after w/o, so basically I still have 25 to 50g of carbs a day, just at a specific time, which is still what HAN is having me do, I think my phone isn't ringing David missed talking with you too and the big bad wolf is gone and catch up on you all........

Originally posted by Sapphire ONLY 25 to 50 grams of carbs in TOTAL all day? WOW!! That is very low, isn't it? Do you get tired eating that few carbs?
|
Still doing the challenge with Buff, when I get back I'll re-measure and re-group at that time, but I'm will still eat clean, probably cleaner than I am, something about the sunshine, just kinda motivates me, plus my mom says they have an awesome gym in her building, she was telling me about all the equipment they have, so I'm psyched, she started working out about a month ago, and she's turning 62 in a couple of weeks, which I think is very kewl
