well we have to enjoy life sometimes! or else it would get too boring and we would snap!
I hope I can come to watch and then chow down after!



Posted by: JLB001

That would be fun!

Ok, gotta run over to the office to get our new diets and workouts. Ya'll be safe!



Posted by: JLB001

Shoulders:
Arnold presses supersetted with front raises
4x15@20, 20, 20, 20 4x10@15, 15, 15, 15
Standing Lat raises
3x10@20, 25, 25(did 12 here)
1/4 lat raises
3x20@15, 20, 20
Seated Rear delt rope pulls
3X20@40, 50, 50

Cardio was 20 mins on stair master

New Diet for the next two weeks:
Meal 1 5 to 6 egg whites 1/2c cooked oats
Meal 2: 4 oz lean meat (no red), 1/2c rice or sweet pot., 1c. veggies (no peas, carrots, corn only green stuff)
Meal 3: 4 oz lean meat, 1/2c sweet pot. 1 c veggies
No carbs after this meal
Meal 4: 4 oz lean meat 2 c veggies
Meal 5: same damn thing or 5 egg white omeltte with veggies

lean meats are turkey, chicken or fish. no red meats at this moment due to the added fat content and no protein shakes.
Snacks: soybean pods(?) and sugar free jello, popsicles, etc. as wanted. Condiments are anything fat free with no more than 9g of sugar for the day. I usually just use salsa, so I am ok omitting this one.

Cardio: 30 mins on the treadmill in the am and 20 mins of the stairhell in the afternoon 6 days a week. (I know some of ya'll will think this is too much cardio, but Jon knows my body well and what it needs)

Haven't got the workouts yet, which I'm not too worried about those at this moment. Those should be here this weekend sometime.

ohhhhhhhhhh...how many ounces equal 1/2 c sweet potatoes????? I am thinking I would have to squeesh the spud in there to find out.

You are so friggin strong!!!

How come???

Walking on the treadmill? Or running? What incline and speed???




Posted by: Jill

I like to eat dijion mustard with my chicken. (not the kind with mayo mixed in) reg mustard is good too!

What kind of macros / cals per day are you aiming for Jodie?



Posted by: JLB001

I have no idea what the macros or calories are on this diet. I will have to figure the calories out. Craig will have to do the macros. I don't keep up with those. Craig says my protein is usually 1 per lb of body weight. I'll have to figure the rest. But I am thinking the calories are close to 1000 or so. My body clings to carbs and fats, that is why those are so low.

Ewwwwwwwwwwwww...Mustard. I don't like mustard.

Protein shakes are easy to digest, with actual food food, your body has to work at breaking it down, so I am told it helps with bringing the metabo back up. Dieting like this for me, the fat will begin to just fall off and I am able to function fine this low.

Walking only so far. This morning I had it at 3.5 or so for about 10 mins flat, then bumped it up to an incline of 8.5, then walked on a flat for the last 5 mins of the 30. I get to cruising with my headsets on taking long strides to hit the glutes, etc. Plus I walk without holding on to the rails, etc which requires more effort.

Hey Jodie!

Good Luck with the new diet. You're really in full gear now.!

wowie looks like things are really set!! I still dont know how you can function on such low cals. best of luck woman!

what are soybean pods?



Posted by: JLB001

I don't have a clue what soybean pods are. LOL Might have to go look at Whole Foods for them.

Ok..I added everything up, its not as low as I thought it might be. I did add my veggies into the carb totals. It breaks down close to this, depending on if we have chicken, turkey or fish and what type of veggies.
Protein: 146
Carbs: 116
Fat: 14
Total Calories: 1169

LOL, Jstar...that was alot of scrolling to read! Thank you.



Posted by: Fitgirl70

Good diet Jodie....I read that diet that you sent to me and I think it's pretty good. I think I might try it actually when my show gets closer.

Right ow, just eating clean and trying to stay away from junk, ya know.



Posted by: JLB001

I owe the new diet to Jon. I think all the food is getting to Craig. He is use to eatting what I do. Now he has to have 8 to 9 eggs and up his carbs servings to 1c and up his protein to 7 oz. The no shake thing is gonna be hard on him too. I swear he lives on those things. Now I have to be sure to have his meals ready for him for the day so he can take his with him to school. It's cute...he'll call asking what time is he suppose to eat and what is he suppose to have.



Posted by: Fitgirl70

Awwww, isn't that sweet??? Don't you just love that?



Posted by: Jill

Is craig competiting too? You guys should do a 'couples' show. That would be oh so cute!



Posted by: JLB001

He is doing the show as well. But I'm not sure if they have a couples thing or not.


this sucks....I have the urge to chew gum, but the gum is in my gym bag at the house.

Oh...get this! Shows how silly people can be. I have this resident that called the police on me because I will not walk his move out. First off...I am not a manager, I just lease. Second...I can't tell him if his apt is good or not because I am not a manager. Even if I did walk his unit, what I say doesn't mean jack crap either way. So he said he was keeping his keys til Monday when the Assist. could walk it...so, I say if you do that, she will charge you for those days beyond your move out day...He got really pissed and started yelling at me...saying he was gonna call the police. I told him, "Just send them in when they get here"



Posted by: greekblondechic

haha, people are such idiots!

a lot of cops are cute tho



Posted by: JLB001

I don't need one. I already have my sweetie.



Posted by: Jill

Are you working today jodie?



Posted by: JLB001

I was Jillie. I'm at home now trying to choke down chicken and 2c. brocolli, then wait 30 mins then 20 mins cardio at the gym on the stairhell. You wanna come with me??? hehe



Posted by: greekblondechic

I HATE HATE HATE the stairmaster!!!!!!!!!!!!



Posted by: Jill

Id love to be in texas right now!!!!!!!

Today is my rest day. My chest and trapies are sore!!!! But its salomn sat, I cant wait!

How do you cook your chicken?

??? Most people around here are eating 5 meals. I went to "6", cause I seemed to be hungry all the time. (lowered my protein per meal too) Any opinion??



Posted by: JLB001

I do my chicken the easy way. I use to use the George with it, but that became a pain in the rear to wash. I just cut the boobie up into bite size piece after weighing it, spray some Pam in a sm. skillet, heat it up and throw it in there. I add a little steak seasoning to give it some flavor. You can add onions and shrooms to it this way as well. It's quick and easy!

Its kinda icky here right now, cloudy and lots of wind. But not too cold!

Greekie...it's ONLY 20 mins. I'm still having to get use to it again. I should be glad it isn't the stairmill. That thing is pure hell.

Jill, if the six meals are working, stick with it. I know I start feeling a lil hungry about an hour before I have to eat again, but that is because the fats are low. I've never really tried 6 meals a day. Don't see what much the difference would be if your getting the same amount of foods, just smaller amounts more often. Should be better for getting the metabo going too.



Posted by: atherjen

awwww thats soo cute that you two are doing the show together Jodie!!!

stairmaster?



Posted by: greekblondechic

Jilly, if you are eating the same calories just broken into 6 instead of 5 meals, then it makes no difference, in fact it may be better because each meal is a mini boost to your metabolism and you get 1 extra mini boost, additionally if you are more satisfied you are more likely to stick to it and succeed

I think the reason most of us girls have 5 meals (aside from 1 less meal to worry about) is because on our lower than guy's calories it's harder to break up into satisfying smaller meals



Posted by: JLB001

I think I would if I had to eat anymore food. I swear I am gonna turn into a damn leafy green veggie or I am gonna grow damn feathers before too long.



Posted by: atherjen

I could eat 12X day easy!!!!! Im not kidding. my appetite is RAVENOUS! no matter how much freakin broccoli or boatloads of anything else, I am ALWAYS hungry!! food runs thorugh me like nothing. I dont know makes me mad!!!



Posted by: JLB001

Ummm....HIGH METABOLISM!!! now shhh....you make me jealous.



Posted by: JLB001

20 mins on the stairmaster complete! Set it on intervals and stepped tell my heart was content(NOT!)

I HATE WALMART!!! Too many people there all the time!



Posted by: atherjen

WALLYWORLD!!!!! lol yah I hate the place too well just when its busy! the good deals come in handy sometimes! heh

Id be dead after 20mins on that stairs-to-hell machine!!

I cook my chicken the same way, thanks to AJ! It is super yum in a pan with pam and spice! I hate cleaning the GF too-its the most annoying thing in the world-I try to use it as little as possible!

Oh girls, Im with AJ, I could eat 10X a day!! I look forward to every meal-even if it is chicken and shrooms

I love wallmart, sorry Im all about deals!!



Posted by: JLB001

Speaking of deals....I got a sports bra for $1!!! at walmart. hehe Also got a cute pair of warm up pants for $12. I need more warm up pants since I dress like I am going to the North Pole to do cardio.

Has anyone tried those Tyson bag white meat chicken? Pretty yummy.



Posted by: JLB001

AM cardio is complete! 30 mins on the treadmill. 5 min on 0 incline at 3.5, then bumped it up to 6 incline then 9 for 15 mins total, then back down to flat for the remainder. Took long strides that almost look like a lunge. Trying to target the fat burner range and not so much the cardiovascular range.



Posted by: greekblondechic

You look sooooo pretty in your new avi



Posted by: JLB001

Thank you Greekie!



Posted by: atherjen

Awww Jodie that avi is SOO PRETTY!!!!
how are you today?



Posted by: Jill

About your sweet pot question. 1 cup=200g=41C
SO.... 1/2 cup=100g=3.5oz=21C I hope that is what you were looking for. I had some sweet taters for din din so I had to figure out the math!



Posted by: Jill

Oh, I had a dream last night that I met you.



Posted by: JLB001

Me? Well you guys need to come down for a visit! You might not want to go back.

Jen...today was a boring day at work. All I did was eat diet foods, drink shit loads of friggen water and wish I was having something yummy instead! But it seems to be doing what it is suppose, since I have begun this journal I have dropped 5lbs. So it all can't be that bad.

Jill.. Thank you for the info on the spuds! I've been using a 4oz one so we aren't too far off from where it needs to be.



Posted by: greekblondechic

5lbs!!! thats awesome!!!!

Go Jodie Go Jodie



Posted by: JLB001

Greekie.....I still have 20 to go! I started at 145 (I think). I weighed late today after being at work all day and in gym clothes with shoes and it was 141, so I know there are a few lbs in there that are clothes. Oh...monthly visitor came too. My upper body looks like it is getting leaner, abs are showing more than last week, so its working. I don't use a tape measure often, usually just wait til Jon does bodyfat.



Posted by: JLB001

We did the stairhell tonight as scheduled.

Tomorrows workout should be as follows: Chest (condition)

3x10 Machine Bench press supersetted w/ 3x30 pop squats
4x15 30 degree flies supersetted w/ 4x10 squat thrusts
3x15 high grip pec dec supersetted w/ 3x20 jump lunges
3x10 Cable crossovers

weights used will be listed tomorrow. Craig will be taking his prep course for boards again this week, so I am on my own at the gym.



Posted by: greekblondechic

Awww..well you can check out the cuties since he is not around



Posted by: Stacey

Heya Jodie-- Just catching up on your journal!!
I love the Tyson bag of white chicken-yummy--and SO Easy!!!

I like Wal-Mart too--but I HATE going there when its Busy! They are building a new one by us--and I hope it stays clean!
Although I wish it was a super HEB!

I like that Stairmill thing-but Can only do 10 minutes of it at a time. That thing is pure hell.

Have a wonderful day!!!!



Posted by: Stacey

Oh ya- and thats nuts about that man at your apartment wanting to call the cops on you-what an idiot!!!!



Posted by: JLB001

LOL, Greekie...I would get in trouble for that!

Stacey...I hope you guys had a great weekend!!! Oh that guy about the keys...he's like split personality. When the officer should up...he was all nice, etc. Gave his keys to me and everything. BUT.....I still did not walk that apt. He has already called to schedule with the assist. today.



Posted by: JLB001

This morning I weighed...I'm down to 139, that was before getting dressed and before cardio. Basically woke up, tinkled and weighed.

I did my am cardio...silly treadmill. 30 mins. inclined it, etc. Same ole same ole....LOL



Posted by: BabsieGirl

I'm happy for you.

Hey....Wanna be my cardio coach?



Posted by: greekblondechic

Posted by: jstar

Hi Jodie,

Good job on your fat loss!

Where did you get that Tyson Chicken in a bag? Is it in the frozen section? All we have is fried/breaded chicken in a bag. I used to buy Banquet grilled chicken in a box and then they stopped making it



Posted by: atherjen

HEY HEY!!! Jodie! thats awesome progress so far!!



Posted by: Fitgirl70

Jodie, how are you? Looks like you are doing great w/ the weight loss and the bodyfat loss.

Hey I found out more about my show. It is Oct. 1 and 2 and it is the NPC Heart of Texas in Plano. Yes, it's natural (one of the requirements actually)

I talked to Prince Harrison, the promoter, today. He gave me the low down on it and I don't have to register/apply until July/August.......I still have plenty of time.



Posted by: JLB001

I swear this board died today.

Jsta...I found the bagged chicken stuff at Walmart in the rice isle, but another store I went to today had it by the packaged tuna. I took a pic of the bags. I found another breand today, so have to try that one tomorrow.

Jen....I'm trying to get this weight off! Kinda wanting to see what the bf% is nest week. I measured my waist, its down an inch, thigh was down 1/2 in and chest was down 1/2 in as well.

Fit...I think I am worn out today! Still have to prepare Craig's meals for him for tomorrow. I'm waiting on Average Joe to come on. The show your gonna do should be a good one. Lots of girls show up. Try looking at Steelfitness.com or MostMuscualr.com to see if they have last years show listed.



Posted by: atherjen

that looks like the Tuna we can buy prepackaged. never seen chicken tho. then again, Canada SUCKS!!!!!!!! we never get anything good!
is that chicken real high in sodium though?

WOW!!! talk about droppin inches! thats awesome prog woman!!! Keep it up!!



Posted by: JLB001

210 in sodium. I don't worry too much about sodium at this point. I don't add extra, but I don't watch it either. We'll end up doing a sodium load the last week anyways.



Posted by: JLB001

Tonight's lifts weren't anything special.
Cybex flat presses supersetted w/ pop squats
3x10@80, 90, 100
DB flyes at 30 degree angle supersetted with squat thrusts
4x15@25, 25, 25, 30 4x10
pec dec supersetted with jump lunges
3x15@40, 50(10), 40 3x20
Cable crossovers (these sucked tonight)
3x10@40, 60(6), 50

Then 20 mins on the stairmaster

food was the diet posted a few posts back, but had chicken, chicken, turkey and fish. Veggies green beans, green beans, spinach and more friggin green beans. Oh....soy bean pods are yucky tasting.




Posted by: Jill

Congrats on the progress Jodie! Why is it that some peoples bodies respond faster than others? Luck lady. Actually you are not lucky, this is well deserved considering the effort you have put in. Keep up the super work foxy lady!!!



Posted by: JLB001

Jill...I think each person's body respondes to different things, its just learning what works for you. If I did carb cycling like ya'll do, I would never loose a pound, My body clings to them like flies on pooh! Alot of what I have dropped will be water weight usually is the first few weeks, then it gets harder. It's just gonna be the being consistant and sticking to the game plan. It's weird...you can sneak little foods in that your not suppose to have when you don't have to answer to someone else, but throw a trainer in there that will see you every two weeks and it screws those snacks right out the window! They know when you eat something you shouldn't.

You're right, the site did die today....I tried to get on a couple of times and couldn't do it.

Anyway, I looked at that link you posted in my journal.....go see my responses. I'll check out that other one too in a sec.

It should be a good one.....boy, I've got a lot of work to do!!



Posted by: JLB001

Fit...it can be done! You have plenty of time. Are you going to do figure? Those girls that did that show are alot harder than they look in those pics.....


I swear...if I see another hamburger commercial I am going to SCREAM!!!!! It is soooo wrong.



Posted by: Jill

Hamburgers.....Im cooking cc meatloaf right now-shit I cant have any till tomorrow! No red meat for ya either eh Jodie? Your gonna be might sick of chix and fish in a few months!!!



Posted by: JLB001

Jill...I am thinking he might let us have red meat next time we go in. I would be happy with sirloin once a week! cc meatloaf? what's that?



Posted by: Jill

Cottage cheese meatloaf? Its Jodi's recipe. Basically ext lean beef or turkey, cottage cheese, oaties, egg, onions and spices. It is super yummy!!!



Posted by: JLB001

Oh.....I don't like cottage cheese. The curds gross me out.



Posted by: Jill

Do you know a substitute for dextrose post wo?



Posted by: JLB001

ok...I am gonna be real stupid here....what is it? Craig isn't home for me to ask...I can call and ask..He isn't answering.
Ok...Craig said that is the best, that you can buy just that alone. Says it is some form of sugar? He said any quick acting carbo would do the same. Mixing protein shake in gatoraid, slice of white bread, white potato, all the kind of carbs you shouldn't you eat but would be ok after workout.



Posted by: Jill

Thanks! Going to watch that new show "Eden" on fox!

Yeah, I think I'm gonna do figure. Figure and Fitness both have height classes and I, of course, would be in the short class. You have 1 and 2 piece suit rounds and no routine required with Figure.....which is good because I know nothing except how to do a little cartwheel......

You have to be lean, but not super hard, heels are required and you must be an amateur!
Oh, get this -- yesterday when I went to my local supp shop over by my office (haven't been in there since Vic and I started back in January), the guy there Jerry, whom I talk to a lot when I do go in said "Oh my gosh, how are you? (like we're best friends), I haven't seen you in a while, WOW! look at you, you look awesome."

I was so excited to hear him say that. He gave me a free tank top and we talked about NPC this Fall, he is probably going to do a show then too. This guy is jakked!!



Posted by: JLB001

Fit...trust me on this one...the girls are hard. They say come in softer, but they aren't soft. Most of the girls that did the Heart of Texas also did Bev's show in Sept which is one of the two I did last year. They had an additional two weeks to diet, etc for the heart of Texas. The girl that won short in that show was from Houston. I'll see if I can find some pics of her.

I've also done NPC, this natural bbing show will be a first for me.

Isn't that a great feeling when someone notices the hard work you've been putting in!!! Makes ya smile big all day!

Another thing to keep in mind is alot of these girls also play in the chemistry set. Which makes it twice as hard for girls like you and me who do not. When you start dieting down, etc...stick to it. It's twice as hard for us naturally. But it can be done!



Posted by: Stacey

Hey Jodie-- I hope you have a great day



Posted by: jstar

Morning Jodie!

TY for posting that Tyson pic. I will look for them next time I go food shopping. I've tried the chicken in the can b4 and yuk it was gross.

Congrats on losing those inches! It's nice to see your hard work and dedication paying off!

Do you take any supplements to prevent muscle loss during cardio?



Posted by: JLB001

Jstar...I don't take much...Glutamine 2x a day, a multi vitamin/mineral 2x a day, Calcium (since milk is a no no), E, extra C, B complex, plus my ECA stack also Omega 3. Trainer has cut out fish oil at the point because my body clings to any added fats.

I just basically continue to try to lift heavy the whole time. I really think the other morning when I wieghed before doing bodyfat, so I should have been 143. Lean body mass would have been unchanged from my bad eatting. I can pretty consitantly maintain that while doing cardio. I have noticed in the past that the last week I would drop 5lbs LBM, but the last time I dieted down, the LBM stayed the same the whole time even the last week.



Posted by: JLB001

Good Morning Stacey!!!!!



Posted by: Fitgirl70

I'm sure it is hard to get like that for us "natural" people.....I will definitely not resort to "chemistry sets".

If you can find the pic of that girl, that would be awesome, I'd love to see her.



Posted by: JLB001

K...let me go dig around.....hehe



Posted by: jstar

Fitgirl & Jodie = are you doing the same show? That would be cool

Jodie...I was just curious --that is why I ask! (Don't mind me! :wink. It is great that you know your body like that because it really takes the guesswork out of dieting...and who needs that? You already know what to do, just a matter of doing it. I am still trying to find out how my body responds to various amounts of cardio, training, carbs, etc...



Posted by: JLB001

It takes time Jstar. I've pretty much worked with the same people in the 2 yrs I have been doing this.

I don't mind you asking at all. That's what this is here for.



Posted by: JLB001

Good girl for me. Im dreaming of that little bag of candies right now!

Posted by: DrChiro

Narrow grip pulldowns
4x10@70, 90, 90, 100
Wide grip pulldowns
4x10@70, 90(8), 80, 80
one arm db rows
3x15@45, 45, 45(10)(I died about then)
Hyper ext.
3x20@10 (if I go heavier, my back tightens up and I end up having to go for deep tissue massage and adjustments)

20 mins on the stairhell on intervals. No cardio this am, slept in.



Posted by: greekblondechic

deep tissue massage

oh, oops, wrong kind of deep tissue



Posted by: JLB001

LOL....someone's mind in the gutter?? Greekie needs to get some!



Posted by: DrChiro

i got some this morning!



Posted by: greekblondechic



Greeky definately needs to get some



Posted by: JLB001

Hush Craigie



Posted by: Jill

Jodie-Is Craig a chiropractor? Why is his name Dr Chiro?



Posted by: JLB001

Jill....He has a few more months left before he takes his boards.



Posted by: DrChiro

i am almost a chiropractor....i graduate in less than a year (it is a 4 year post graduate doctorate program)....i am so ready to get out you have no idea!



Posted by: Jill

Do you give Jodie free massages with that shakey vibrator thing? (Why did I say that?)



Posted by: JLB001

LMAO....shakey vibrator thing? I'm scared to ask what you're meaning......



Posted by: greekblondechic

no comment



Posted by: Jill

That big rectangle thing about 1/2 the size of a phone book. My chiro used to use it on my back. Its a massager. Greeky always has sex on the brain!



Posted by: greekblondechic

Thats cuz Greeky never has sex anywhere else BUT the brain



Posted by: jstar

You guys crack me up I think I might be too young for this journal

At least you got Jodie's mind off food and onto something far better



Posted by: greekblondechic

LOL jstar, I am only 21



Posted by: JLB001

It was only short lived.....someone baked chicken in the office for their lunch. Now I am hungry.



Posted by: JLB001

OMG..Ya'll are babies!



Posted by: jstar

I'm hungry too

Greeky be nice to your elders or I am gonna have to whack you with my cane!

I wish I was 21



Posted by: JLB001

LOL....Hell I wish I was 24 or 21! Once I turn 40...I am gonna start subtracting years.



Posted by: greekblondechic

at 40 you can say its the 11th anniversary of your 29th bday



Posted by: JLB001

LOL. True! Hmmm...when I am 40...Craigie will be 29.



Posted by: Stacey

Hey Jodie-- Hope your doing great!!

And girl- I HOPE I Look like you when I am 40!!



Posted by: JLB001

aww, thank you Stacey



Posted by: DrChiro

Jill..that vibrating thingy is called a genie...it is just a masage tool to kep the doc from using his/her hands so much..i personally dont like it because it is just a shaking type of feeling, not a DEEP tissue massage.

I do give jodie massages actually, full body on my chiropractic table....and I think she is about due for another one!



Posted by: JLB001

Rut Roh...that means I have to return the favor. I'm so bad about doing one half ass.

It's called a Genie??? sounds like an adult toy.



Posted by: DrChiro

Jodie....just wanted to say thank you for all that you have been doing lately...especially now that we are both on this diet...it really does mean alot to me and I wanted to make sure you knew that!

(she is cooking, portioning, and packing ALL of my meals for the next day so that when I go to school in the morning all my meals are already prepared)

one day my abs will look like yours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Posted by: Jill

Lucky boy!



Posted by: DrChiro

I am lucky....and I DO know it!
(i hope she feels the same)



Posted by: JLB001

Your abs will never look like mine...nor will my calfs ever look like yours! Ass!!!

You girls should see his calfs they are HUGE!!! Little ankles with these horseshoe shaped things sitting on top of them. I'll get a pic of them tomorrow.

I'm just as lucky Craigie. Not many have a bf that opens car doors, wants to go to boring dr appts, walk the doggies at 6am, etc.



Posted by: Jill

Do you and Craigie pooh live together? How long have you 2 been datin for?



Posted by: JLB001

We do Jill. It was a yr on Jan. 9th give or take a few days depending on what Craig says. LOL



Posted by: DrChiro

i say Jan 7th...just to disagree with you...and since I am always right (except when you are always right)....we will go with jan 7th



Posted by: DrChiro

genie is NOT an adult toy...it is a professional piece of equipment used in chiropractic offices around the country

jackrabbit IS an adult toy...it is a vibrating/rotating massager used by horny women around the country

do not confuse these....hopefully i will never confuse them and bring the wrong one to the office..that would be bad...very very bad



Posted by: Fitgirl70

Me thinks me has missed lots o' sex talk......what is going on in here?

OK, ages....I'm 31, Greeky, you just need to go away...!!!! LOL



Posted by: greekblondechic

I feel so loved



Posted by: DrChiro

jodie...you are a cradle robber...you should be ashamed of yourself....bad girl!...you need to be spanked...so come here and I'll take care of that.

(i'm glad you robbed my cradle...lol)



Posted by: JLB001

OMG.... umm...no comment!



Posted by: Yanger

you two are funny lol



Posted by: DrChiro

i have gross dissection lab in about 20 min and we are dissecting vaginas (we did the penis last week...not good)

i really dont want to go...maybe if i keep referring to it as a cooter...or sugar bowl....and point to the clit and call it the love button he will kick me out of lab..sound like a good plan?

(oh and dont ask me why chiropractors have to dissect genitalia....i have no idea....for some reason we are just required to do it...just like we need to learn rectal and vaginal exams...fun times i tell you, fun times)



Posted by: greekblondechic

OMG dissecting a vagina.. thats sooo weird!!!!!



Posted by: DrChiro

yeah...kinda takes the fun out of it.

well on second thought...that isnt true...nothing really takes the fun out of the nanny!

Posted by: JLB001

Oh...I left it at home today. I will in about 20 mins when I walk home in the rain!

Well, at least he isn't telling us about cutting up penis's today. I got that story a few days ago.



Posted by: JLB001

Hmm...now Yanger has decided to venture into another girls journal. LOL You'll discover we are weird creatures....



Posted by: JLB001

Tonight's workout was Tris and bi's. It sucked. I think tomorrow will be rest day, then do shoulders and legs Fri. and Sat. Passed on the cardio tonight. Just really didn't feel like doing that, plus now I have to eat either eggs or more turkey. I don't want either! I would like steak or some pasta.
Staightbar pressdowns (on cable crossovers, which were much lighter than the reg. press down cable)
4x12@60, 80, 80, 90
Cybex Ext.
4x10@30, 40, 40, 40
kickbacks
3x20@15 (because some took off with the 20's)
Sissybar curls
6x6@40, 60, 60, 65, 65, 70
HS curls
3x15@35, 35, 35 (much lighter due to being at end of workout)



Posted by: JLB001

no cardio or workout today. Taking the day off to rest.
I am going shopping for work clothes, more food and then maybe start tanning. I'm sooooo pasty white!!! I hate been so pale.

Wow- you guys have only been together for a year? Ya'll sound like you have been together for YEARS!!!!



Posted by: JLB001

Just a little over a year. He might say it seems like forever.



Posted by: DrChiro

how about forever and a day!

actually it is hard to believe it has been a year....seems like just yesterday i was bringing you that stuffed doggy and you were packing for L.A.....(we ate pizza on our first date...does that mean anything)

LOTS have happened since then, some good, some bad.....but I am happy where I am right now....and VERY happy with who I am with!



Posted by: atherjen

awwww thats so cute Craig!

pale texans? is that possible? I wanna go shopping! hope you have a great day Jodie!



Posted by: Stacey

awwwwwwwww Craig thats soooo sweet of you to say!!! You sound like a great boyfriend, and I know Jodie is a great girlfriend!! I really admire you too!!!!



Posted by: Fitgirl70

Awww Craig -- you are so sweet!! I can't believe you remember the first date! Very few men can do that. My husband is one of them, which tells me that the two of you are in a class of "men" all your own.

Jodie....you are so very lucky girl!! If he ever tries to leave you -- you just tie him to the bed and only go in there when it's his feeding time. At least that's what I've threatened to do to Brad.



Posted by: JLB001

He was serious when he said we had (2)pizza(s). I was packing to go out to LA for a week. He came over that night. I called him the whole time I was gone (I think he was shocked). I think the whole time we have been dating we have maybe spent a total of a month apart.

Craig is a keeper. hehe



Posted by: JLB001

I have a confession.....Today, well all day, I had to go to this thing for work, well I packed my foods and took them with me. I ate their salad no dressing with my sweet potatoe and ground turkey...THEN I heard this thing yell, "Jodie....Jodie...Jodie....Jodie" from on the table. It was a TOOTSIE ROLL screaming my name!!!! I tried to hide from it, put a noise maker thing and a HUGE bag of popcorn over the top of it, but the damn thing STILL would not shut up! Needless to say...it jumped in my mouth. I HAD to eat it. Then things got worse.....Jon calls....I had to confess about the tootsie roll yelling my name. he was ok with it...said as long as it wasn't the whole bag or more than one. I felt better. Damn that was the best tootsie roll I have had in awhile.

Posted by: greekblondechic
