so much for the "no" sugar!!
I REALLy am planning on being good, starting tomorrow, after I see the trainers. I want them to kick my ass tonight!
I just feel unmotivated today. I have no lunch here at work....
!
I guess losing weight is like trying to do anything ... you have to want it. Maybe you're not ready ... don't know. I know the missus was like you ... start/stop ... go for a week, jump off the wagon. It seems that now she's ready to really get after it. She's been doing pretty good with the gym and her eating has really changed. From what she tells Donna and I, her meals are going very well. Like I said before, maybe having to answer to someone about your cheats will help. The missus looked at it from this view point, if I'm paying XX amount of $ to have someone create a meal plan, I best stick to it and be honest when I don't follow it otherwise I'm just wasting money ... and we don't have money to waste.

Hopefully she will be able to motivate you and guide you in the direction you want to go. |

I was checking out the LewisEstates one! pricyy eh
Then I'd say, about right, how much room do 3 people need. You need a kitchen, livingroom and 2 bedrooms.
Bigger the house, more to clean!!|
Originally posted by naturaltan that about 200,000 more than I want to spend on a house ![]() |

Wow ... what would you do with all that space and all those rooms.

Originally posted by Jill It was great to meet with the trainers! The had a binder, with atleast 100 pics of people they have transformed-there were even pics of a guy they trained who is now the 'muscletech' model!!!! They deff know there stuff. My bf was high-21.7%, they measured my wrist, and put this thingie around my arm, I dont know how accurate this is. They said the average active female is 20-25% bf. They mainly stressed the importance of diet. All the people in their binder changed NOTHING except their diets, their training stayed the same. They set me up on a meal plan, staring at 2100 cals, it seems pretty high, but Im gonna give it a go. (They are aiming for 2lb a weeks fat loss) Quite a few diff foods to choose from, I can even have skim milk and some diff cereals! (fairly small portions though) They are about counting cals, and not so much carbs and proteins, which I am used to-fats are to be kept to a very min. Cardio and weights are important as well. The more cardio the better-even if its just a simple walk, that is cardio. My tool that they use to monitor their/my progress is the scale. I should be weighing in daily. You wanna know something else they told me? The average GIFTED women can only put on approx 6lbs of muscle a year, which in turn is 1/2lb a month. Im excited yet scared to do this. The rigid-ness military style is going to be a lot of work. I want this to work mentally. I dont want to get stressed emotionally, and binge. Im gonna give it a try. |
I can scan it then send it to you if you want ?

hehehe

Watch out, wide load comin through!! I tried on some new jeans the other day, and the 3 way mirrors almost killed me. I was like "holy my ass got big!" Needless to say I didnt buy the jeans. Jean shopping is like bathing suit shopping, hell!
Im glad that they could help! and SEE your not fat!!!! I know I know skinny lil "fat" girls with 30%+bf!!!

Originally posted by Jill Thanks AJ! I feel sore already, my workout was short but it was tough! I did 7 flights of 240 stairs. I cant jog up all 240, maybe 3/4, and by the time you get to the top you are literally GASPING for air. I also did a mini hill 2 X. I go up the stairs several diff ways, sideways, 2 or 3 at a time-3 is like a huge lunge. Jog 10, walk 10, just try to switch it up. Last year I was doing 10-11X 240 stairs, I didnt want to kill myself today, tomorrow we'll see how I feel, Im sure I will be sore!

Im not even stressed about doing this "diet", even though I said a while ago that I have banished the word....|
Originally posted by Fitgirl70 [remember when you made that "note to self"? Try to be more dedicated like fitgirl?] Now I have to work extra hard just to stay up with you!!!! |
You are doing super!
|
Originally posted by naturaltan Stacey ... I don't know that I'd call it a diet persay. If Jill posts her meals, you'll see it's really a diet, more just a healthy way of eating. |
I can even have air popped popcorn and corn and peas and carrots and some cereals!
Thats no diet to me!

I have no doubt that you will reach your goals! it sounds like you defintly have a great handle on things with the trainers helping you closely like that.

Originally posted by sara do you count the calories from veggies? I'll have to look for this yogurt

Originally posted by Jill Im already sorta modifying it. I just cant see paying some one $65 to say, ya you can drop an oz of meat in meal 4-I can only eat so much. I will be talking to my gf who did the same sort of plan, and get her opinion. |
)
Home time in less than an hour!!!!
Jill.....how are you this morning? What's on the agenda for the weekend?
I dont know what Im gonna do with myself-ive never had 3 days off in a row unless Im gone on holidays! Granny's tomorrow
, planning to have a tiny cheat MEAL, thats all. Not a cheat day

Originally posted by JLB001 I know with me, once I cut sugar out, I don't really crave it anymore. |

Originally posted by Jill Hey Fitgirl-I work today then have the next 3 days off! I dont know what Im gonna do with myself-ive never had 3 days off in a row unless Im gone on holidays! Granny's tomorrow , planning to have a tiny cheat MEAL, thats all. Not a cheat day AJ-can you buy 5-htp in stores? |
|
Originally posted by Fitgirl70 I hear ya....I had a cheat meal last night, well kinda, I tried to have quesadillas, but the tortilla wasn't crispy so I picked out the chicken and steak.....I did eat some of the rice and beans though....to be honest, it wasn't really good |
|
Originally posted by atherjen LOL Im off too!!! Ive been keeping busy. this morning was awesome!! we sell 5-HTP at work. they should have it in the one in Edmonton too. Call and see. its pretty cheap. like 15$ |
Thanks for asking sweets!
Dont ya all think spliting the protein would be better anywase???????????
Happy easter all! Someone eat some chocolate for me!!!
|
Originally posted by sara Jill- do they allow you to eat protein bars? |
just make sure you won't eat
|
Originally posted by Jill Thanks Jodi! Having any treats today?
|
I'm glad that you can break up that protein with your meals..that was an awful lot!! 
JIllybean- you are such a smart woman-no matter what you say, I would never think you were a failure. we ALL deal with some sort of emotional imbalances and whatnot, and with a lot of ppl we try and let other things in life be more important first so we feel we can control something at least.. you are defintly on the right path sweetie, getting intouch with your inner self and what YOU truly need in life for self-peace and happiness is far more important than what we see on the outside. Your are truly a beautiful woman!!!
. 45mins of kick ass cardio-the only thing is since Ive been doing more cardio today my knees have been acting up. Went for groceries and other house stuff-bought some 'easter' chocolate and ate it! (since I didnt have a thiing yesterday..) Wallymart was a ZOO! What was I thinking!

...I don't get none.
I like postin pics like you do, its fun! Im gonna do it more often now!
The only thing about these makeover shows is that the people have such low self esteem, the need to fix the problem inside first, IMO. The still will have crapy husbands and low paying jobs even though they have big nockers and no gut!

I think I remember that diet.. I thought it was pretty crazy..
damn you must have a real nice kitchen!!!

Originally posted by Stacey I know..I wish someone had paid for my boobs..lol!!
|
My insides are what Im really focusing on right now. That was the biggest thing that I had to fifure out-healing from within. Unfortunately weight loss will come next. Im not gonna stop training or sit on the couch all day and eat crap all day, Im still pretty much on track. Ill still post my meals Im thinking.
Thanks for your concern.
