16 weeks and Counting


(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)



Posted by: JLB001

Today marks 16 weeks until June 12th! This will be my first ever attempt at a Natural BBing show! I've done figure several times in the NPC, so thought I would try a different route this time before doing a figure four weeks later in July. The fun thing too is that Craig will be doing this show with me!! I am so looking forward to doing this with him. woohoo

In this journal, I plan to keep track of all my diets and workouts along with the weights lifted. Jon, the person we will be working with will see us every two weeks to adjust diets/workouts accordingly. I have been working with Jon for the past two years on just bodyfat measurements so he knows my body well and how it will react to certain things. Please keep in mind, that my diet isn't the norm. for alot of people that complete. My body does very very well with a low carb diet (under 100 per day) putting more Infuence on the proteins/fats, with a cheat meal about every three weeks or as needed to kick it back in gear. And don't be suprised if my cheat food ends up being a piece of cheesecake or key lime pie.

Today and tomorrow I do not plan to be eatting completely clean. The reason being that I am taking my 18 yr old son to Mardi Gras in Galveston tonight, then tomorrow is a get together at my house for the last Sex and the City Finale....Pizza is on the menu!

I will try and do measurements sometime this week but will def. have bodyfat measurements on this coming Friday. So I will most likely just post weight and those measurements.

I'm glad there is another person here that is going for BB as well. I wish you the best of luck.

I was going to compete in lightweight BB this spring but it was too much to handle all at once, moving, job, competing etc. So I will be competing this fall in a Nat BB show.

Enjoy your pizza

Im SOOO excited for you Jodie!! You have my best wishes!
It would be awesome if I was in Texas during your comp!

Cardio will begin back up on Monday am. Today's food so far:

Meal 1:
6 egg whites
2/3 c. oats with 3 tsp splenda

Meal 2:
Protein shake with fiber and glut.

Meal 3:
5 oz Tilapia
2 popovers
(I omitted carbs so I could have those as my carbs)
10 pieces asparagus

Meal 4:
Protein shake
w/ fiber and glut.
So far: 105 in protein, 58 in carbs, 12 in fat, 791 in calories.

I take a multi vitamin, Bcomplex, E and extra calcium, plus a thermo. If I do not have fish for that day, we do add in fish oil and flax seed. Otherwise dry skin and dull dull non shiny hair!

Now meal five....who the hell knows at this moment. I am hoping they have grilled chicken on a stick or something like that at Mardi Gras.


Posted by: JLB001

Girls/Boys.....I am gonna need some help! I have no clue on a song to use. Craig has suggested Black Cat by Janet Jackson...I love the song, but do ya'll have any other ideas??? And no...I will not be pulling a boobie out at the end of the routine! I won't have any left by the time I get to the show. Also......I have to get yet another new suit that is plain....what woudl be a good color??? I was thinking of just letting Bonnie make me one in whatever color she thinks.


Posted by: Jill

I will be here to support you 100% chickie! Congrats, and best of luck in BB!!!


Posted by: Jodi

I think a green posing suit would look great with your hair and eyes.


Posted by: atherjen

I was gonna say green too. just like the color in your avi Jodie. it goes soooo pretty!
hmm as for a song, that a tuff decision. I havent heard that one u mentioned, Im going to have to download it now!

Hmmm good song but it might be too fast paced. I've seen a few bb comps and you need to move into a pose, hold it a few secs, repeat w/ a different pose....I know you probably know that already though. IMO the best posing routine I can remember watching was this 77 yr old guy in the grandmasters class posing to "Bad To The Bone." It was hilarious


Posted by: DrChiro

we saw this 50 year old guy pose to "Mr Big Stuff"...he was in great shape and really looked like he was having a great time on stage....one of the best routines I have seen.

jodie does look good in green.....hmmm...maybe we can use the soundtrack to Shrek...or the HULK


Posted by: shortstuff

LOL Hey Jodie Kick Ass Gal!!!!


Posted by: greekblondechic

I think green too!!!

I dunno a good song, whats the requirements?
I wish you the best of luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Posted by: JLB001

Shrek? I don't want to look like a big green Lug!

Dark dark Green??? or a light green?

I'm wanting a good paced song, nothing so slow that it drags forever and ever! Those are just painful routines to watch! We want something that is gonna make people go...Hmmmm.

Greeky...I'm not sure of the song requirements, I am thinking nothing with cuss words so I don't offend any prudes or children.
Maybe something from hip hop, hell I dunno! I am horrible with remembering names of songs!!!


Posted by: greekblondechic

oh oh I cant decide, can you put your avi pic up in full size in your gallery maybe that will help? I really like that light green tank on u..but i dont really know what is more flattering under stage lights ive only been to one comp!!!


Posted by: Fitgirl70

Hey J, I saw someone once do a routine to Kung Fu Fighting. It was so awesome.

What kind of song do you want to use? Something funky, country, what genre? You know I've been thinking when I do my routine in the fall, I'm gonna use Harder to Breath by Maroon 5.
Either that or Youth Gone Wild by Skid Row!.


Posted by: greekblondechic

I guess my new fav song "in public" by kelis wouldnt work then

It has a good tempo tho, you should download it Im guessing a tempo like that would be about right? It has little pauses where you could hold a pose and then pop it out real quick I love when bb'ers do that! It looks so cool but im not sure if u will get what i mean cuz I dunno how to describe it


Posted by: JLB001

Greeky...I will see if I can find it to post.

Fit,,,something fun!!!! with an attitude!


Posted by: Fitgirl70

MMMM, do you have to edit it? How long can the song be?


Posted by: greekblondechic

It would be soo cool if you could use mya - my love is like whoa

my body's like whoa, my ass is like whoa

perfect! nothin wrong w/ a little self promotion right


Posted by: JLB001

Last night at Mardi Gras, I did pretty good!

One chicken boobie on a stick with sm dinner roll
then some brisket (it had too much fat, but I was so hungry!) w/ sm hamburger bun. Then.....dessert! A Big Fat Dill Pickle!
Attached is a pic of how many people where there! It was so packed you could hardly move! Of coarse the 18 yr old got lots of boobie pics. LOL


Posted by: Fitgirl70

Oh that pic takes me back....I spent St. Patrick's Day in New Orleans one year....it's their second Mardi Gras....it was so much freakin' fun!!

Greeky, I love that song, there is nothing wrong with self promotion....how about that one song (don't know who sings it)......"my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard, in their eyes, it's better than yours, damn right, it's better than yours. I could teach you, but I'd have to charge..."

You know which one I'm talking about?


Posted by: Jodi

Dark Green - Dark color suits look much better on stage than light ones IMO.


Posted by: atherjen

omg look at all those perdy neckalaces!!! Hope you had a great time!
dill pickle for desert eh? OK then Pickle Lady!

I need to do some downloading for songs.
from your avi, Id choose that shade of green too!


Posted by: Jodi

Besides, once you get all that tanner on and if you have a light colored suit, you may look like a neon sign.

I've seen both on stage and I just think the darker looks better


Posted by: JLB001

I was thinking the same thing Jodi. I have two tats that I cover, one on my lower back and one on my left hip, anything to light shows all the protan and Dermablend.

OMG..Fit. I heard that song on the way home lastnight. I wrote down some of the words so I could ask who sang it. Who sings that song??? But do you think Milkshake would be too...umm...?? LMAO

Ah....New Orleans...I love that pace, love the history and how unique it is. Lived there for a short time. Just went back last year with Craig. We had fun, but it was hard to have too much fun when your doing a show there! We pigged out at The POrt of Call! My fav. place in the world for hamburgers and baked potatoes! Then had beinets (sp?) at Cafe deMond after inhaling those burgers!


Posted by: greekblondechic

KELIS - MILKSHAKE
OMG That song is the best when it comes on in the club

and bein a greek girl I DO know how to shake it


Posted by: JLB001

hehe.....I have a J'Lo going on!

I can just see you out shakin it to that song!


Posted by: Fitgirl70

You have a JLo booty???

I want a JLo booty


Posted by: JLB001

I hate my J'Lo ass! It sucks. It's almost always the last thing to go on me. The butt, then the legs.


Posted by: atherjen

hey join the club. I have a big booty on me too!! maybe I should start to squat just the bar!?! hahaha buy pants is torture!!

I need to download that song!!


Posted by: JLB001

I'm so glad Craig is a butt man and not a boob man! woohoo

Jen..a J'Lo is good for contests...as long as it is tight with no jiggle!


Posted by: Jill

Steve is a butt man and not a boob man too! He always tells me he loves my 'big ol' booty'!!! (good thing cause I have a big but t and teeny weeny boobies!)


Posted by: JLB001

LOL....the amount of $$ I am getting stuck having to pay on my knee surgery would have purchased a nice new set of boobies. But that idea scares me. I'm happy with my silcone inserts that go in my comp suits.

You know...I have never understood why an "in-network" doctor would use an "out-of-network" surgery center. I'm waiting to get the bill in so I can be Ms. Meanie. Or at least see if they can re-file, etc. Plus I asked the surgery center several times before I had the procedure done for a ballpark figure, which noone there could give me. Kinda pisses me off. I feel like saying...Damn, least you could have used KY jelly before screwing up the you know where.


Posted by: greekblondechic

Shake it shake it shake it shake it

SHAKE THAT HEALTHY BUTT!

baby got back!!!!!


Posted by: Fitgirl70

My flabby inner thighs are the last to go on me. I've never dieted down like this, but when I got divorced (a long time ago -- long story) I lost A LOT of weight, got down to like 103 and still, my legs were just as flabby!!!


Posted by: Fitgirl70

I love my boobies.....I used to have teeny weeny ones too, until I got mine. My hubby likes boobs and butts. I have a nice booty I think....nothing like J'Lo, but it sticks out there -- Brad says I have a bubble booty.....now I'm just trying to lose the "jiggle"


Posted by: JLB001

Diet for today...I woke up late, like 10am but then didn't get in til 1:30 then bed at 2am. I need my 8 hours sleep.

Meal 1
6 whites and 1/2c. oats

Meal two
3 oz. sirloin with lettuce, tomato and 10 pcs. aspargus
1krunch lite bar

Meal three
will be protein shake with fiber

Getting up late throws the meals way off schedule. I'm kinda skimping on the carbs so I can have the pizza. I know...I have weird ways of reasoning things out.


Posted by: Fitgirl70

Hey, you know what I always say....

Reasoning is the key to sanity!!

Acutally, I just made that s*&t up

But it works, huh????


Posted by: JLB001

Fit...you'll see that as you diet each time, your body will react in different ways each time. It's really funny how it does that. This time when I gained weight back, it went to my kidney area and tri's!


Posted by: Fitgirl70

you know...the lower back (spare tire area) is where Brad always gains it. I gain it there too, but mostly it comes in my love handle areas and in the lower abs.


Posted by: JLB001

Today is offically one boring day!!!! It's cloudy out, looks like it is going to rain, I am hungry and can't eat for another 30 mins. Craig is working so he can't come talk to us, I'm sick of water...I swear I have gone tinkle 50 million times today and finally.....I am ready to go home and clean my apt. while waiting for Craig to come home.

Enough of my bitch moment.


Posted by: Fitgirl70

I hear ya J, I'm hungry too....luckily it's 6:00 and time to eat. I'm having leftover brown rice and chicken from yesterday.

Ooooo, I have news on my tshirts. I'm gonna go post it in my tshirt journal


Posted by: JLB001

Greeky...I am gonna have to get this CD http://www.kelisonline.com/ I like her music. LOL

hehe...I get pizza soon....


Posted by: JLB001

Oh no...I couldn't use her one song..."in public" People would look at me like what the hell?


Posted by: greekblondechic

So use it in private, Craig wont mind!


Posted by: jstar

You guys are cracking me up!

How about " I like the way you move" or "Shake your Tailfeather"....


Posted by: Fitgirl70

Good morning Jodie, how are you this morning? I'm hungry!


Posted by: JLB001

Fit! Eat some eggies and oats! This morning is good so far!

Jstar...I haven't heard the last song...but then maybe I have and just don't know it. I am the worst with names of songs!

This am, when doing cardio, I was listening to Pink...some of her songs would be good to use.


Posted by: Stacey

hey girlie!! Can't wait to follow you on your journey!!!

What did you think of Sex and the city last night? I'm gonna miss that show!


Posted by: JLB001

I thought the ending could have been a little better, but it was good! I taped it. LOL

did you guys have a good weekend? It was so pretty on Saturday!


Posted by: JLB001

Alrighty...The damage from yesterday's pizza and cheesy breadsticks have been tallied up! I was Ms. Piggy for sure!! oink oink!

meal 1
eggs and oats
meal two
3 oz. sirloin, lettuce, tomato, 10 pc aspargus,
meal 3 and 4
protein shake, 1 krunch lite with meal 4
also had jello before it set. ( I know..weird)
And.....then....PIZZA!!
5 slices chicken supreme on thin crust
4 cheesy breadstick

Grand total for Sunday.....
Calories: 2481
Protein: 187
Carbs: 249
Fats: 88

I better have one hell of a pump from chest workout today from all that damn pizza. today's diet is all clean stuff. No more junk foods until I get the ok for a cheat meal, but it won't be pizza.


Posted by: BabsieGirl

Girl,

You KNOW I'm gonna follow ya........I'm am soooo excited for you.

Okay, how often are you going to share your pics?

Kick arse sister!!!!!! WOOOHOOOOO


Posted by: JLB001

Babsie..maybe every two weeks. We have to meet Jon to do bodyfat at two week intervals, so maybe after we do that each time. I'm kinda excited about going Friday, but know the % is up there right now. I am thinking I have also gained some LBM so hopefully it isn't all just fat!!! If he says LBM is at 115, I am gonna be soooo excited! It would be a 5lb gain.


Posted by: BabsieGirl

Girl, you're going to be my inspiration.

Sweet. Does Jon make both your diets. I'm so so excited for you..........I feel like I just took some ephedra.............weird.......Oh, speaking of such.........Are you going to keep your supps a secret? Only asking because many of the girls I know who compete, keep everything they take hush hush.......... seems like no one wants to share the secret to success...................

Girl.........I'm with you all the way.....Even when or if you turn bitchy


Posted by: JLB001

I don't take much...Glutamine 2x a day, a multi vitamin, Calcium (since mik is a no no), E, extra C, B complex, right now using an ECA stack since they seem to think Ephedra will be the death of the World. Umm, 1 tsp. Fiber twice a day in my protein shake. I'll add extra fish oil and flax if there isn't enough in the meals during the day.

The last week or so, we add in, Potassuim, Dandelion Root and something else I always forget. It helps with pulling water out. Craig would know...It's some short little word too!

Ya I thought it was good--but expected more- I still cried my eyes out.
I'm glad she ended up with Big-and not that lOSER!!

I did have a good weekend--did nothing-it was great!


Posted by: JLB001

We basically did nothing too. At work wise. LOL Nothing fun happened here all weekend.

Cal-Mag? I have to take that.


Posted by: DrChiro

i think she was referring to uva ursi...another diuretic herb...cal-mag is a great thing to be taking too!

jodie doesnt kep ANYTHING a secret, you guys should know that by now..all you have to do is ask!


Posted by: JLB001

LMAO...gee thanks my dear sweet loveable boyfriend!

yes it was the uva ursi. I can never remember that stuff! I don't take the Cal-Mag stuff. I have no clue what it is.


Posted by: BabsieGirl

LOL......

Jodie is a sweetie..........Always willing to help out or show support.


Posted by: DrChiro

cal-mag = calcium and magnesium supplement.....you take calcium already but we chould add in some magnesium.....i take magnesium everyday...starting to take too much shit actually!

we'll get everything planned out after you met with john!


Posted by: JLB001

Aww...Thank you Babsie. I try, but I do have my bad days!


Oh ok Craig.


Posted by: BabsieGirl




Posted by: Jill

Was your pizza super yummy? My next planned cheat is gonna be pizza and chocolate! Dont know when though...

Only if you're a baseball player, wearing 4 layers of clothing and working out on a 116degree day for 7 hours with no water and no food!!!!


Posted by: greekblondechic

oh and dont forget obese!!!!


Posted by: JLB001

LOL. Ya'll are bad.


The pizza was yummy! I think I enjoyed the breadsticks more than the pizza. My next cheat? Hmm....not sure when that will be, but will most likely be a dessert of some kind. Like brownies, key lime pie, cheesecake, etc.....


Posted by: shortstuff

I am with you Jill!!!!!!!!!!

Jodie- man I wish Darren was like your BF in terms of working out and dieting, it takes to get to him to eat well.


Posted by: JLB001

The pervious BF would eat Taco Bell and pizza in front of me all the time! It was so wrong! He would never go with me to the gym either. Use to call him the Resident that resided on the couch.


Posted by: BabsieGirl

UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

My hubby does that and I'm like;

"HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <waving my hand in his face> I'm dieting over here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Thanks soooooooo much for your support darlin"

But then I thought........."Pfff....oh well, in the end he'll have to deal my mood swings when the dieting gets down to the nitty gritty!"

Seriously....you go from sane to Bitch............

The funny part was hearing him say it was all worth it


Posted by: greekblondechic

Awwww

yeah, I do that now, and I'm not even dieting for competition


Posted by: Stacey

ohh my hubby eats HORRIBLE FOOD In front of me every night Sucks--

Hi Girls!


Posted by: JLB001

I only go to bitchy when I don't get to eat on time. Then I usually can not make up my mind on what I want to have or anything. It gets worse if I don't have my foods with me and we have to eat out somewhere. Not good. I use to do a carb deplete...I would be in a lost state for two days! Me with hardly no carbs ( I'm talking maybe 20) was not a pretty thing!


Posted by: JLB001

Today's diet:

Meal one
Normal crap I always have

Meal two:
same ole protein shake

Meal three:
4 oz turkey
4 oz sweet p. (doesn't that piss you off when you go to the store only wanting a small one and they only have these HUGE 10 serving ones?)
lettuce and tomato salad

Meal 4
protein shake
1/4 c. almonds (purchased in the bulk food section)

Not sure what meal 5 will be

So far:
Protein:103
Carbs: 71
Fats: 27
Calories: 915
5 liters of water, with lifting will add in another 2. I swear I am a pee factory.

Tonight is chest..how fun.



Posted by: BabsieGirl

LOL..........

Meal 1 and 2 sound awful familiar.......:heehee:

btw, what is the nutritional info for 1/4c almonds? j/w!

Posted by: JLB001

Jen I will have to see in my old journals what the value is on the almonds. These are just plain raw almonds. (I think)

Posted by: Fitgirl70

Hey Jodie, how are ya today honey? Yeah, I agree with jen, nice bench!!!

I need to get stronger so I can bench that much. My chest is so sore from yesterday, so are my triceps.

Have a good Tuesday


Posted by: JLB001

I'm doing good today. Looks like it might actually be pretty out. brb...IT is here


Posted by: BabsieGirl

Hey darlin,

Glad you're doing well today. Nice work out sister!!! I'm so happy you're competing. You're going to do really really well. I just know it. That, and when you feelitng out of it you'll have someone to smack ya on the tush and get you back in line:eveil:

I'm still in "Awww" that the both of you are competing together. I"m jealous


Posted by: JLB001

He better do it too. He said he would, which Craig is very good about keeping his word. He's competed before in anaural shows and looked really good! I wish I could scan his pics to post! His legs just piss me off! Nice quads and HUGE calfs!!!

Babsie...That is that Mike davies one I told ya about....If anyone wants it...all they have to do is print this stuff out. They are killer! It's good because I don't loose my LBM doing it. I'm excited to see what Friday will be!


Posted by: ncgirl21

Morning!! Your diets and workouts look great!! I'm sure you'll kick some !! Good Luck!


Posted by: JLB001

Aww, thank you NC. I hope to do well, but ya neva kno!


Posted by: Fitgirl70

When is your show again Jodie? Where too?


Posted by: JLB001

It's in the Woodlands, which is just north of Houston. The date is June 12.


Posted by: DrChiro

hey...you talkin me up?
thanks for saying i looked good in my shows....hopefully this time around i'll look even better...it would kick ass if we both won our divisions...i'll start a journal next week..and see about getting some pics up...cant wait to see what John has to say (just wish i could meet with him in person friday so he could asses me...maybe i can go see him another morning)


Posted by: JLB001

He probably would. Just have to be with the chickens!!!!


Posted by: DrChiro

with the chickens?


Posted by: JLB001

You know...with the roosters??? They get up at the butt crack of dawn to crow at the sun coming up..........


Posted by: Jill

Your cruncie ice cream bars-can you have them while dieting for your show? Hows the dieting coming along btw?

i used to have a friend and her name was Dawn.....i used to kid her bf and say he always woke up at the butt crack of Dawn!

thought i would share that inspirational story with you kids


Posted by: JLB001

Hmm..HPD is circling over the apt. complex....This can not be good. It's freaking me out....BIG cirlces over us and the Kohl's parking lot.....Maybe they found the person that tried to break in an apt. at the next complex over.....They better be gone by the time lunch is over....they have 45 mins.


Posted by: JLB001

woohoo...they left!!!!


Posted by: JLB001

Jill...I'm not suppose to have icecream. But they won't hurt me this far out. They are very low in calories and carbs. Craig did get me some Sugar-free bullets which do not have milk products in them so I will snack on those all the way to the week before. So far the diet seems to be going along good. I know I have dropped a few lbs, but hard to say with Auntie Flow visiting the next week.


Posted by: ncgirl21

What's a sugar free bullet??


Posted by: JLB001

They are these.......


Posted by: atherjen

damn they dont sell those around here!


Posted by: JLB001

I'm sorry Jen. If I could package them up and send you a box without them melting I would. I was almost in a fit when the food store didn't have reg. sugar free popsickles (sp). I was dying to have something sweet...Then I saw those! It was a good night when I found those.


Posted by: atherjen

I can imagine. gosh, Im going to REALLY look around the ice cream section next time


Posted by: Jill

You and your pics jodi, I love em!


Posted by: Jill

aj, you can get sf popsicles at safeway! Usually anywhere!


Posted by: JLB001

I'm sorry. LOL Sometimes it is just easier that way.


Posted by: JLB001

I'm hungryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy......I can't have my shake until 5pm.

Umm, this am, we did 30 mins on the recumbent bike, then stretched. Tonight we are doing back.


Posted by: Fitgirl70

Can't you have anything? Some turkey, a small piece of chicken, 1/2 of a protein bar???

Have a great back workout tonight?


Posted by: JLB001

I just drank more water and a piece of gum. Craig brought me a diet coke...and he thought he was going to have a Snicker's bar. It was a Kingsize one....1 bar is 3 servings....I think he felt guilty because he gave it to one of my co workers. He said he didn't want to blow his half hour of cardio this am. He had a sm piece of choc instead.


Posted by: Fitgirl70

Awww, don't you love that about water? It has a tendency to make you feel full.


Posted by: JLB001

And go pee all the damn time!

ok...onto the back workout.

deadlifts (which made my knee sore so won't be doing these often) 4x15@45, 65, 95, 95

Reverse grip short bar seated rows
4x12@50, 70 ,80, 90

Assist. chins 3x12

Posted by: Jill

moo goo gia pan? Is that a word?


Posted by: JLB001

I hope so. It's on the Chinese food menu. Another good one is steamed chicken and broccoli. It's bad...we walk in, they know I am ordering off the menu and not having buffet. hehe

It's hard work but somebody's gotta do it!


Posted by: atherjen

HEY where did you get that smiley?!?!?!!? I like!!!


Posted by: shortstuff

MMMMMM HOw was the chinese food, I love it, am totally in the mood for some PF Chang's.


Posted by: Jill

Hey Jodie-I know Craig works at GNC-Do you or him recommend any fat burners or thermos? TY


Posted by: Fitgirl70

Hey Jill, I answered you about the Zantrex in my journal.....I gave you a link too


Posted by: JLB001

Sorry everyone...I have been busy today with work.

Umm....my thougths on the fat buners without ephedra...THEY SUCK!

Seriously, alot of people do return them back to the store.

Chinese was soooo yummy. I get it steamed so it is about the only thing I will have out. Had it for lunch today when everyone else was eatting chick-fil-a.


Posted by: Jodi

Can't you buy ephedrine in Canada? Not ephdra but ephedrine.


Posted by: Jill

Certain store sell 'ephedrine' produts, but they are behind the counter sort of thing. I think its illegal isnt it?


Posted by: Jodi

Ephdra is illegal, not ephedrine.

Sorry Jodie. Don't mean to clutter.


Posted by: Jill

oh. It will soon be though wont it? What do you recommend JODI? And JODIE, craig says that stuff is crap?


Posted by: atherjen

Jill you can still buy ephedrine in Canada. did you go to Popeyes yet??? they sell it on the shelf. pure ephedrine hcl. they should still have the 8mg, 300tab bottles left. if not then they WILL have 8mg-50tab bottles(new law in Canada)


Posted by: Jodi

Ephedrine is not crap IMO. It kicks ass. Ephedrine HCL, Caffeine and Yohimbine HCL. Great fat burning stack as well as energy stimulation.


Posted by: Jill

Do you stack it on you own? Can I not buy something with the 3 already stacked?(sorry about the whoring Jodie)


Posted by: JLB001

LOL...It's ok. Sometimes it is easier to keep it all in one place.

I would die without my ephedrine. Jodi you named my stack! LOL

Jill.....I think the other stuff just depends on what your use too. With me, it just doesn't seem to work. But then it could be because it doesn't have that kick in it that I am use too. I think if you do try it, it has to be combined with a good diet and exercise program to see results.


Posted by: Jodi

I just brought it over to her journal. Sorry, I hope you didn't mind the chatter.

I love the stack. I use just enough to give me stimulation without the shakes. I use 12.5G Ephedrine HCL, 100G caffeine & 2.5G Yohimbine HCL and I take it 4-5 times a day. I can't live without the stuff anymore

Tonight's workout: Arms

4X15@25, 40, 40, 50

Z-bar curls(standing)
4x15@50, 50, 50, 50

Posted by: JLB001

A cute guy for you Greeky! We need to find you one!

LOL Jill. I still have my sugar free bullets. I like those better.


Posted by: atherjen

Nice workout Jodie!!
I looked for those kinda sugar free bullets or ANYTHING similar today at the huge grocery store and couldnt find anything!


Posted by: greekblondechic

cute guys run from greeky


Posted by: JLB001

Jen..they hide them! They don't want us to have them, we have to hunt for them.. Just read the packages to look for the Splenda on the box. We'll get you some when you visit your sister!

I struggled with that damn workout. Craig wasn't there. Tomorrow is legs! ick....I'm still leary of going heavy so don't expect your weights on that one. I need to get back at my leg presses, before the surgery, I was doing 5 plates each side for 10 reps at a time. Doing one plate now kinda sucks!!!

Oh...try this! Jen, I knw you would like this one! You love to kill your legs!! Oh..this is on the leg press machine
Use a weight that you can start with 30 reps, then add more weight do 20 reps, add more weight and do 10 reps. Rest a min between each set...after the last 10, do 10 more at same weight, pull off some weight, do 20 more, pull off some more weight and do 30 more. Do the last ones without rest in between. K??
I know you can start with 3 45's on each side and go up to 5 on each side......


Posted by: JLB001

Not in Texas they wouldn't. We seem to have lots of them here. Or....we can find you an average Joe that treats you like a queen.

Hey Jodie, did you find a song yet??

I think so Fit. We are thinking of Mizunderstood by Pink. Just using the last min or so of it. But still haven't decided.

Oh the suit will be a dark green.

Posted by: atherjen

YAY!!!! I the green color!


Posted by: Fitgirl70

Oh cool J, I love that song......that is a good choice on the suit too. I love green too!!


Posted by: JLB001

The fun begins....Bodyfat is higher than I thought. Damn I feel like a fatass now!!! Oh well, shit happens and the goal is only 15 weeks away! But it can and will be done!
Body weight 141
Tri: 23
Bi: 6
Sub: 14
Supra: 17
Pec: 10
Abs: 14
Kid: 31
Quad: 42
Calf: 25
Totals: 23.9% which means LBM is about the same 110, which means I have 26 lbs to lose in the next 15 weeks. I want to go into this show about 115 to 120.
I'm sooooooooooooo pissed at myself for being the Ms. Piggy the past few months!

AUGH!!!! In Sept. (Just to show ya'll the damage my junk eatting has done!) I was:
Tri: 8.5
Bi: 2
Sub: 6
Supra: 4
Pec: 2.5
Abs: 3.5
Kid: 11.5
Quad: 20
Calf: 16
Bodyweight was 122 and 9% and still a week of dieting left. I think I was right at 8.5 or so the day of show and 120. This f*cken BLOWS!!!!


Posted by: JLB001

Time to go get the hair colored and cut. Maybe I'll have her shave me bald! That would be a few lbs. hehe


Posted by: Stacey

GooD MORNING JODIE!!!! I just checked my messages on my cell phone, and let me tell you ~~~ YOU MADE ME SMILE SOOO BIG!!!!!! THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH FOR CALLING ME AND TELLING ME GOOD MORNING!! I'm SO happy that I checked my messeges (I am VERY bad about not checking them for a day or two--haha)

THANK YOU SWEETIE!!! You totally made my day!!!

I hope you have a wonderful day And a wonderful weekend!!!


Posted by: JLB001

Your welcome Stacey. Just didn't want you to have a yucky day!


Posted by: Jill

Dont be so hard on yourself sweets! Now you just have to be a little stricter for your show. Good luck with all! The sept measurments were just before a show, right? Is it realistic to say that you could maintain those stats all year round? Just curious.


Posted by: butterfly

Here you are!!!

Thanks for pointing me to the right thread Jodie


Posted by: JLB001

Jill, realistically maintain those of Sept. I wish! My body is comfortable with the weight I am now. Usually offseason I stay about 135 and 18%. So this is high for me right now. But then I usually do not have this many months between being off either. I've just eatting too much bad stuff, didn't maintain hardly any cardio while being off and then having the knee thing.

Jon has all my food journals and my previous workout program, he'll be faxing my new one over this afternoon. He's already told me that it will not be any carb cycling, basically low the whole time with not much in fats except my omega's. He cut flax oil out because he does not want my body to work off that instead of my own stored fat. If I notice my hair or skin changing because of low fats, then we can address that at that time. Plus I have to up my protein intake because it has been a lil too low the past few days. We start back with 2 a day cardios tomorrow. 30 mins on the treadmill in the am, then 20 on the stair stepper in the pm.

Posted by: Stacey

Oh and Cheer up Jodie!! I know you will reach your goal girl!!!!


Posted by: Stacey

Posted by: JLB001

I just have to become the friggen cardio queen and strict diet to reach it. I'm just doing my bitching here.

Hey...I do have bright red short hair again! The idea of letting it grow, well.......that is out the window!


Posted by: shortstuff

You will do it, I know you will. Plus you are not alone, you have craig to cheer you on.


Posted by: DrChiro

damn skippy.....i am here for you as always baby!
(thanks for pointing that out shortstuff)

i cant wait till we are both about 6 weeks into this diet and doing our 2 a day cardio sessions...lets try not to kill each other ok....and i agree to listen to you bitch about your diet and cardio if you agree to listen to me bitch about the same stuff!


Posted by: Stacey

You two are adorable


Posted by: JLB001

Oh plz..............you know I am gonna bitch about it no matter what. If you start, I'll put my headsets on and turn the volume up. j/k Someone needs to invent that damn miracle pill that just melts it off so we don't have to work at it. Craig...can you get started on that?????

Great..two people, doing cardio twice aday.....Imagine the wash pile we are gonna have! I think that scares me worse than the dieting and cardio. Mounds and mounds of laundry.

Short..I will have Craig! I just have to watch him like a Hawk...he brought home a HUGE snickers candy bar the other day. Good thing was he didn't eat it.


Posted by: DrChiro

exactly...i didnt eat it....came close though.....no more moments of weakness for me!

i LOVE cardio!.........................NOT!!!


Posted by: JLB001

Ohhhhhhhhhhh Craig...Amber has a website. Under the links is a link to the same dr. your teacher uses. LOL I guess she makes it "legal" that way. Sad.


Posted by: JLB001

Oh...you girls should try the Pace LIme and Garlic Salsa!!! It's yummy and spicy hot!


Posted by: Jill

Laundry? Lets not get started: My gym clothes, work clothes lounge clothes X 2, cause I do Steves too! + Towels!! I seem to do laundry every second day!
