Buff Bride Countdown

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




Posted by: Cate

Well....thanks to Babs and Eggs' encouragement, I'm starting a journal!

About me: About 5 years ago, I weighed around 160 lbs. I joinned Weight Watchers and got down to around 127-130, where I've stayed since then. I've always stuggled with being "skinny fat" -you know the layer of fat all over that covers any muscle you might have .

Currently, I am 125-127, 5'6" and 18.2% body fat as of 3 weeks ago. I've stuggled with my diet a lot. I have a horrible carb-tooth. And I am lacto-ova vegetarian, so carbs are lot of my diet. I also run or do other cardio 4-5 days a week and lift 2-3 days (2 w/a trainer). I also have a tendency to undereat. I did well on weight watchers, but I think I may have been eating around 1000-1200 cals a day w/one day off.

I am getting married on June 11 and I want to look buff in my strapless dress and in my bikini on the beach in St. Thomas

So ....here goes

Oh....I'm also taking the advice of TP and ordering Lepitgen Basic and Lipoderm -Y or Ultra....don't know which yet!



Posted by: greekblondechic

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am sure the ladies (and gentleman) here will have plenty of helpful advice for ya hon!

My recommendation is switching to complex carbs.. that helps!



Posted by: Cate

Thanks greek! Cereal is my HUGE nemisis.....I have to cut it out totaly I fear



Posted by: Jodi

Fiber One and All Bran w/Extra Fiber are fine for cereal. Oh and there is also Uncle Sam cereal as well. Any of those with L/C Milk is fine for dieting



Posted by: Cate

Thanks Jodi....I actually like both of those. I don't know Uncle Sam....will have to check it out.

Also, what is L/C?



Posted by: greekblondechic

low carb.. hood makes a product called carb countdown milk.. if u get Fat free its mostly protein!



Posted by: Cate

Cool! I need to make a shopping trip!



Posted by: Jodi

Yes, the L/C FF Hood milk is great. It has 12G protein per 8oz (1 cup) If you get the All Bran make sure its the one with called With Extra Fiber. I personally prefer the Fiber One because its sweetend. I love Fiber one



Posted by: greekblondechic

Old Fashioned Oats over Fiber One for me ANY DAY



Posted by: Cate

OK...I just ordered the Leptigen and Lipoderm-Y!!!

My plan:
Sunday - Friday: 14-1600 cals a day w/at least 125 gms of protein
and switch to all complex carbs.

Saturday is a day off, not to binge or anything, but to have a drink or two and just not think about food too much



Posted by: Cate

Workouts:
Sunday - off
Monday - cardio and legs
Tuesday - cardio
Wednesday - core lifting w/trainer
Thursday - cardio
Friday - core lifting w/trainer
Saturday - long run



Posted by: atherjen

your meal plans sound great! just dont go too low in cals! listen to your body!

Congrads on your progress thus far AND getting married!!!



Posted by: Cate

thanks jen!



Posted by: Jenny

Great idea starting a journal

Congrats on the wedding



Posted by: Cate

Thanks Jenny!



Posted by: JLB001

Much Luck Chickie!

Congrats on the upcoming Wedding!



Posted by: Jenny

Woohoo, that's a hot avvy If that is you your are one damn hottie



Posted by: greekblondechic

I wish I looked like that avi!!!!



Posted by: Cate

PLEASE that is my dream body!

Not too muscular, but VERY fit!



Posted by: M.J.H.

Speaking of low-carb milk, I tried some kind of soy low-carb choclate milk, that had like 10g of protein per cup, 4g of carbs, and 4-5g of fat and it was GREAT. I couldn't believe how good it tasted. I'll see if I can find out what brand it was. I am a huge milk junkie too finding some low-sugar high-protein milk would be great.



Posted by: Cate

Do find out MonStar.....since I'm a veggie, I prefer soy milk anyway. Although, I cannot stand it in coffee for some reason.



Posted by: Cate

AM workout:
40 mins cardio: 20 on rolling stairs, 20 on ellip w/arms

Meals:
oatmeal/yogurt/coffee

salad w/boca chicken pattie/green beans/avacado

celery/nat pb

Need to go shopping after work for other things. It's hard right now to get organized (but I KNOW I have to) because I am still living w/my roommate but my Fiancee lives in our new condo. So I live in both places...mostly at the new place on the weekends. We are so old fashioned

Anyway, I have to become a super planner to make this work!



Posted by: Stacey

Congratulations on the upcoming wedding & Marriage!!!! Awww St. Thomas is Beautiful!! That's the next place I want to go!

Good Luck with everything! Oh and the carb countdown chocolate milk is GREAT!!! YUM!



Posted by: Stacey

awwwwwww I married my Best friend Tooo!! Thats wonderful sweetie!!!



Posted by: Cate

Thanks Stacey.....I can't wait to be married. He is the best!



Posted by: atherjen

Today is my day off, food wise. I'm still eating well.....lots of veggies, but there will be some beverages tonight w/friend

I have not worked out today and may not at all. If I don't I'm going to do something low-key tomorrow, like swimming. If I run today, I'm off tomorrow. I'm feeling like I really pushed myself this week and I'm sore all over, which .

Met with the Priest today and we ran throught the ceremony....it all feels so real now!



Posted by: atherjen

Glad to hear that you feel you had an awesome week full of workouts!! Keep it up!! and enjoy the time out with your friend tonite!

are you having an inside or outside ceremony? lots of people or low key?



Posted by: Cate

Hey Jen - I think we will have around 150 people more than we expected to come since my parents and their friends live in another state. It's pretty formal, in a church with the reception at a restaurant (directly behind the church).

I need to take some before pics this week in my bikini so I can see my progress in 9 weeks on my honeymoon.

Weighed in this am: 126.4



Posted by: atherjen

Posted by: Cate

I am squishy (is that right?) on my abs and lower body.



Posted by: Jenny

You are doing great Cate It's so exciting following your wedding plans too Please keep us updated with all the details

If you want any help with diet or workouts, just let us know



Posted by: Cate

Thanks Jenny ....I love your new journal, great message!

Also, we have similar goals and time frames (61 days here ). I look forward to learning from you!

I would love some advice for a great lower body workout! I really build fast in my arms and my upper body is learner than my lower. I have lots of fat and no muscle def. in my legs....anyone???



Posted by: atherjen

Happy Easter Cate!

what are you currently doing for legs?



Posted by: Cate

Thanks Jen....you too

Currently, I'm doing my trainers routinue, but I end w/her next week. She does combo exercises...like sqauats w/push up overhead w/medicine ball. I do lots of squats w/the ball and some lunges. But I need even more. My arms have done really well w/her. I have done everything in the past, so Im pretty familar w/the equipment. I just need a routinue.



Posted by: atherjen

Thanks!

have you done barbell squats yet?
leg press?
dumbell lunges?
leg extensions?
leg curls?
calf raises?



Posted by: Cate

I've done the assited barbell squats (Smith machine??)
Leg presses (not the machine kind) w/realy weight
yes
yes
yes
yes

I just need to know how many sets/reps...all that



Posted by: atherjen

have you ever tried squats unassited under just the olympic bar? - if you dont feel comfortable with those- then go real real deep on the SM squats, until failure. they reallyyy help the booty!

ok as for sets/reps. If you want to build a lil more lean muscle then aim for 8-12 reps, 3 sets is fine per exercise. if you just want to concentrate on keeping the size they are but helping to lean down some then aim for 4-6 reps, and make it 4 sets. make sure its always until failure though!



Posted by: Cate

Thanks Jen- I'm not sure I can do unassisted yet. I broke my ankle last Sept. and I'm not super confident on it yet. I will try the deep ones on the SM.

I guess I want to build and lean down all at once..so the 3 sets?

Also, would you recommend doing all of those lower body exercises in one session?



Posted by: atherjen

ok then stick with the SM for sure until you feel ready to try the free weight squats. and make it 8-12 reps, 3 sets each.

no not all are needed, but vary them each week.. make squats a staple of each workout though. OH and forgot to ask-do you do stiff-legged deadlifts with barbell or dumbells? those are a must IMO
a workout ex:
-SM squats
-stiff legged deadlifts
-leg press or lunges
-leg extensions
-lying leg curls or seated leg curls
-seated calf raise or standing calf raise

See the pic



Posted by: Cate

Jenny - I know...the protein is my hardest part of my diet. I am trying to add protein powder to help. I am a veggie, so it's really hard. I could probably post some wedding pics

Posted by: atherjen

Great workout Cate!! hope your sore tomarrow!

I dont know how you all stay on that elliptical!! I walk off the darned thing!

what did you mix the oats/protein together???



Posted by: Cate

Thanks Jen....I can feel my legs here at my desk as we speak

I made the oatmeal w/more water than usual and a scoop of Grow...it was soooo gross. I ate it 'cause I needed to, but I may not do that again



Posted by: atherjen

I could NEVER make oats/whey work for me. it just turned to soupy icky slob. haha
Id much rather drink my shake and eat my oats

woooo must have been a great workout then!! have fun being sore tomarrow!



Posted by: Cate

I just updated my meals (on the previous page)....I was starving all day and now I'm sooo full!

Did my hard workout make me hungier than usual?? (that may be a stupid question). I ate a ton



Posted by: Cate

OK....so Jen tried to kill me yesturday , my hammies are screaming!

AM workout:
30 min on rolling stairs, put it on a workout, so it's not one steady pace.

egg whites/banana

A strange thing I noticed...I was starving yesturday, so I ate above my normal cals (by about 100+) and I was down a lb this AM!!!

The body is so strange



Posted by: Rocco32

Sometimes gotta listen to the body!



Posted by: Cate

It's a good lession rock!

your living today!! glad your sore!!!

and about being extra hungry- that just means your body was hungry for nutrients to heal and repair itself-i.e build some muscle!! glad to you listened to it and ate!



Posted by: Cate

Thanks Jen - I even took pics this morning and they don't look as horrible as I thought...not great yet. I have old ones from a while ago to compare. I was going to download them today, but realized I dont' have the software on my new laptop and my fiancee has the software ....so, alas, no pics today . I will try this week to get them posted!



Posted by: Cate

4/13/2004

1-egg whites/banana

workout (posted earlier)

2-oatmeal pb muffin

3-salad w/avacado and boca cx pattie/orange

4-GROW and water (not bad really)

5-pistachos/string cheese

6-egg whites/spinach/string cheese/salsa

I need more protein....will update!



Posted by: Jenny

Oooh, we're getting pics It's always fun to put a fave to a name
Meals look good, but you're right, it's lacking some protein Do you ever use protein powder? I wouldn't be able to live without it



Posted by: Cate

Yes, I'm chokeing it down right now. I like it blended w/frozen strawberries....I'm very sensative to taste.

Actually, I can post one right now.... our engagement pic. The others are "before" pics in a bikini and I was going to cut my head off



Posted by: Cate

OK...if you are still up, I've posted my Engagement picture



Posted by: atherjen

I agree with Jenny-try and get in a lil more protein girlie! I cant imagine how hard it is being vegetarian and trying. do you like cottage cheese?
how were those pb muffins??

OH MY GOODNESS, Cate you are BEAUTIFUL!!!! you and your hunny look sooooo great together!



Posted by: Cate

Ahhhh thanks Jen! I think he is a total hottie .

I am working on the protein thing....maybe I need to do 2 shakes a day? It is hard and my body totally craves carbs for some reason



Posted by: atherjen

he is a hottie!!! I need to find me one! lol

2 shakes/day would help bump it up for sure. and as long as you stick to clean carbs youll be fine! you already look great to me!!



Posted by: Cate

I've check out your pics...you should have NO problem finding a man

I will try 2 shakes....or maybe the pancakes that you posted. Do you have the values for those??? They were the sweet pot ones.

Also, is ww pasta bad??? I only have 1 cup.



Posted by: atherjen

aww thanks! but the guys dont seem to think so!!

hmm I dont know the calories and breakdown of those sweet taters pancakes. Tammy(fitgirl) posted the recipe in her journal for it. maybe she knows.

pastas not that bad in moderation, and your certainly not dieting for a comp or anything so it wouldnt hurt. 100%whole wheat. and even better-would be to eat it with some protein after your workouts



Posted by: Cate

Good advice ...maybe I should switch my meals around so I'm eating bigger during the day and a salad/protein at night.

I will get this!

AM Workout:
30 minutes training w/trainer

post-workout: protein/blueberries

pb oat muffin/string cheese

lettuce w/boca cx, red pepper, avacado, ff dressing

cot cheese/LC yogurt

will update....

and BTW...my hammies



Posted by: atherjen

what did you train this morning Cate? '

diets looking good. hammies still sore??



Posted by: Cate

It's hard to describe because she does full-body, core workouts...but I will try.

5 min warm up (jump rope)

squats w/medicine balls (w/handles) in each hands...as I come up, arms bend and over head with a jump. Concentration on my legs getting me up.

circle 8s with ball

balls in each hand puching pads (like boxing w/weights)

squats w/ ball pushing out

Repeat!

then abs (5 exercises)

Does this make sense???



Posted by: Cate

Hey Jen - I am having my last meeting w/this trainer on Friday. She is giving me a program to do on my own. It's been good because I've been doing some things wrong. I'm going to post it this weekend and maybe you could help me decide if it will help me with my goals???

She had me do full body workouts now, but I'm wondering if that is OK or should I do upper/lower on different days...anyway, lots of questions

Thanks



Posted by: atherjen

sounds like an intense workout Cate!!

definit dont mind helping-post up the plan that she gives you when you get it.
you might find that with a upper/lower split you will get better prog-just by being able to hit each bodypart a lil more intensly-and not such long workouts either.



Posted by: Cate

Excellent

Upper/lowers split means one each day right?

Jenny-really--LoL--thanks!



Posted by: Cate

Thanks guys! You are all so good for the ego

The rooftop gig is fun and I just do it when I can (I have a day job). My friend owns it, so it's a blast! The guys are good...it's strange working w/a ring this year...but they don't seem to care! I got pretty good tips today and on guy (older, just being nice) bought me a Cubs visor! It was sooo nice of him. Last year a guy (this one hitting on me) bought me this really cute little pink Wrigleyville tank top.

I've never gotten Jenny Garth...but I'll take it . And I think Stacey is prettier than Trista

I feel better since I've increased my calories, but sometimes I think it can't be like this and I freak out....and I dont eat so much...it's a cycle



Posted by: Jenny

Hey Cate! It's Friday

Don't beat yourself up about yesterdays low cals I do that too sometimes What you need to do is up that protein girl Why are you a vegetarian btw?

What's in store for you this weekend? Some quality time with the soon to be hubby?



Posted by: atherjen

TGIF Cate!!!
dont worry too much about yestarday-just try to eat more today! I agree with Jenny-you need more protein girl! maybe try adding in that extra shake like you thought.

haha thats soo cute guys buying you things! whats your hunny think of that?



Posted by: Cate

Hey Ladies ...I love Friday!

I had my last meeting w/the trainer today and she set up a program for me to follow. I will post it later, so I can get feedback. She tested my body fat and took measurements. I really didn't go down, except I evened out my legs (I had broken my ankle last Sept and one leg was stronger and larger than the other), so that is good.

But.......my body fat went from 18.2% - 15.8% In four weeks!!! My weight stayed the same...126.

This weekend we are going to my friends wedding in Lake Geneva, WI (about 2 hours away)...so I cannot wait!!!

Happy Friday!!!



Posted by: atherjen

OMG Cate that is SUCH EXCELLENT progress!!! Way to go!!!!! that means youve gained some muscle and lost fat! cant beat that!! Keep up all your hard work!!!

Oh well...will keep traking and see!



Posted by: Jenny

Hey Cate!
Protein looks better yesterday Keep working on getting it up, I think 150g would be good for you at least

The Leptigen could probably take some time to get used to, just keep track of what you're feeling I'm thinking of trying some too, but it's so damn expensive and I'm just a poor college student

Good job on the run yesterday! Have you ever tried Spinning? I love it, I'm an instructor at my local gym and it just rocks. I'm about to go take a class in an hour



Posted by: atherjen

Nice run!!! really sets the tone for the day eh? I love getting moving early!
I agree with Jenny-good to see you got more protein! try and get it up as you can. your doing super!!

Have a great weekend!!



Posted by: Cate

Thanks girls! I will keep trying to increase the protein. I love cot cheese, so I need to eat more of it!

Jenny - I have done spinning in the past, but not lately...maybe I need to revisit

Have a great weekend...we are off to Lake Geneva for the wedding



Posted by: Jenny

Oooh, is that Lake Geneva by the little town Geneva outside of Chicago?? Oooh, I love that little cute town! Justin and I were there in January (it's really close to his house) and they have little swedish stores and stuff there! So cute
I hope you had a good time at the wedding!

It was hard today because we were traveling home. But we did take advantage of the 80+degree weather and took a 1.5 hour walk around our new neighboorhood. We found all sorts of fun places to eat at and shop .

The wedding was a blast, great to see all the girls. One got married last year, and three of us this year! We drank and danced and talked weddings.....luckily there were boys there to talk of Vegas and football for my DF!



Posted by: Cate

Jenny - It's Lake Geneva, WI...not too far from the border, but up North past Kenosha.

Banana/cream of wheat/black coffee

Going out to lunch today, so I have to be careful...plus I forgot my leptigen in the car , so I have to take it after lunch and maybe after dinner???



Posted by: atherjen

Hope you enjoyed your lunch!!!

how was your weekend at the Lake?



Posted by: Cate

Hey Jen - the wedding so soo nice! The weather was perfect

I did well at lunch, it was a Chinese place so I had steamed veggies w/shrimp...no sauce Then I went and got my Leptigen from the car and took that, so I'm back on.

I do my weights tonight after work. I was going to post my 3-day workout, but I didn't bring it in with me....maybe I'll post it tonight!

How is you're day???



Posted by: Cate

cottage cheese/LC bread/skim milk

leptigen

Need to workout still today, but I did get a tan in! My first one...I love tanning



Posted by: atherjen

I love tanning too!!! did you go to a bed or lay out in the sun??

Hows today going for you??



Posted by: Cate

Hey Jen! It was a tanning bed of me....not sunny enough today ....I love the sun!

Just got back from my workout and am chowing on a salad I will post it soon.

How are you?



Posted by: greekblondechic

Yay I love tanning too, it makes me feel good even tho its bad for my skin!



Posted by: Cate

I know greeky....I probably wouldnt do it except for the honeymoon....and I love it



Posted by: greekblondechic

I justify it to myself by saying that first it relaxes me, it makes me feel better about myself, it helps me get some vitamin D, and it is like light therapy! So I think the benefits outweigh the risks, at least for me right now.

I'd rather be a happy tan person than a miserable pale person



Posted by: Cate

I like those reasons!!! Here is to tanning

Posted by: Cate

Thanks jen

I dont' like shakes unless I can blend them up w/frozen fruit...otherwise they make me I'm really sensative to taste But, I think I will be short on cals today, so I may do a shake later.

I feel like I didnt do enough weights today...what do you think?

Protein: 113 452 29%

I'm starving and snacky all day



Posted by: atherjen

nothing wrong with those totals girl!! glad to see you got in enough protein today too!
if your real hungry try eating more veggies! those help fill you up!

weights dont look bad, could have added another move(leg extensions, leg press, leg curls, etc) but really I dont see any probs with that.



Posted by: Cate

Thanks Jen - the seafood helped I love seafood! Although I do still feel like a when I see the calories over 1500!

I may add another move. The other problem is, my trainer gave me a program when I had my last session...and I lost it !!! I think it fell out of my book at the gym....so I only have one workout from her...this one I made up

I just want to make sure I'm doing enough!



Posted by: Eggs

Hey Cate!

Great seeing you do so well in your journal! Keep up that hard work, I know you'll do great Yeah, you want to make sure you're doing enough... but dont overdo it! Anyways, I hope the weather pics up again for you. I talked to my family the other day and it was like 84 degrees, sounds nice!



Posted by: Cate

Thanks Eggs! I hope I am doing enough....I see progress, but I dont have time to waste

How are you liking the Leptigen? I've been taking it almost a week...it makes me a bit gassy, but havent noticed much else yet...too soon, Im sure.

It's rainy today but it was sooo beautiful this last weekend!



Posted by: david

Hey Cate!!!

Oh wow! I love that picture of you two! You both look so cute and so happy together! It's dreamlike for people like me (but I try hard to stay single though ) but reality for you! That is such a great picture!



Posted by: Cate

Thanks David

I tried to stay single for a while as well.....but it just happened



Posted by: atherjen

Hey girl! hope you see the sun soon! rains no fun! we had alot of that last week!

I love seafood too! ALOT!! and dont feel bad for eating over 1500cals-thats not much really!

HAve a great day!



Posted by: Cate

Hey Jen - I dont feel like Im making any progress. Im hungry all the time, but Im not dropping weight. What would you say, from your experience, is the ideal way for me to drop fat and build muscle in the next 7.5 weeks?

I have 30min 3x a week lifing (full body) program and cardio 30-45 mins 4 days.

Any thoughts?

Posted by: atherjen

looks like a good routine to me! how many sets are you doing of each? just one?

hmm as for being hungry- is it umm that time of month or coming soon?
have you been eating enough veggies?
healthy fats?
getting your protein in?
those all help with appetite.
hmmmm and shouldnt the leptigen be helping with hunger?



Posted by: Cate

I thought it should , but it's not!!! I am inceasing to 3x a day on the leptigen to see if that helps. Its weird...Ive eaten a ton and I feel full right away, then I'm starving again! No. time of the month is a few weeks off. Maybe it's fat?? I wanted cheese and nuts all day

This is sooo bad, but I want to go back on Weight Watchers I hate being obsessed w/calories!

I do the full circut 3 times.



Posted by: atherjen

Ok that looks like a good circuit! follow it for a while and see how you do with it!

ahh girl dont get frustrated over it! Maybe try PM'ing Jodi or TwinPeak about it?! I wish I knew!

do you know how much fat you get each day?? that can really help keep hunger at bay... Id say make sure that you are getting enough- if your craving those nuts, etc sounds like your body is telling you what it wants!



Posted by: Cate

Thanks Jen -Im just depressed for some reason today and it doesnt help that I ate a ton .

I get on the average of 20-30% fat a day. I asked a question about it in supplements today and Jodi said to increase....so I'll try that now. It didnt help my cravings at all today, but maybe I need to take a 3rd dose?



Posted by: Jenny

Hey Cate!

Hang in there sweetie Weightwatchers do not create hard bodies, they create soft, thin bodies Don't want that do you?
You might want to raise your cals a little Try adding some healthy fats and see how you feel. I usually feel better and see the best results around 20-25% fat, but some people see better results with more fat





Posted by: atherjen

I totally agree with Jenny! weight watchers really isnt the answer hun! Keep you head up! I think that you need more fats too.. healthy ones of course-this is a big thing that really helps me, I could NEVER go low fat! maybe try adding some in for a while and see if that helps.

and hopefully that extra dose of leptigen will make a difference!

Have a super day!!



Posted by: Cate

Thanks girls...I needed that!

Jenny - I got skinny/fat on WW, so I know I want to be better! I want to be tonned and strong

Jen - How much fat should I try and get? I track on fitday. I am trying the extra dose of leptigen to see if that helps!

I lifted today....so I feel better. But, I stepped on the stupid scale ....dumb I know after I ate tons of pistachos last night!



Posted by: Jill

I prefer to step on the scale in the am, when it is usually less. My hon always likes to weigh himself before he goes to bed, when its always more!



Posted by: Cate

Oh it was the AM Jill...but I"m holding a TON of water due to all the salt last night



Posted by: atherjen

ohh dear..stay off that scale! they are evil sometimes and not a good judge of anything really!

aim for at least 40g fat. see how that goes.



Posted by: Jill

After a binge a few weeks ago my weight was up 9 pounds!

Protein: 95 378 27%

My protein is still to low, but the cals are at least under control

I've been eating some junk food lately, lf ice cream, baked lays....I need to work on cleaning it up for these next few weeks.

I am going home this weekend....lots of eating out, so I will do my best , but I will hit the gym on Sat!



Posted by: Cate

Oh yea....tomorrow marks 7 weeks I need to kick it into gear. Any advice??? I need results!!!



Posted by: Jenny

Some advice? Dump the junk, the baked lays and the lf ice cream. Go for natural foods and whole grain. Lower the carbs and up the protein
To tell you the truth, your meals are skimpy You need some more protein in there! What about an eggwhite/1 yolk omelette in the morning? And what happened to your whey?



Posted by: atherjen

ahhh no worries Cate- plenty of help here for you! you'll be in the shape you want to for your wedding!!!
I agree with Jenny- try cutting back on the carbs and increasing the protein- and no more lil bad snacks! those add up fast!



Posted by: Cate

Thanks girls!!! That is what I needed. I am cutting out all junk during the week and allowing a treat on Sat, my day off. I will start today, eat more eggs and my protein powder. I need to plan better!!!

I am off for the weekend soon....get to see my dress (haven't seen it since Nov)!!! My Mom has it and my first fitting is tomorrow. Maybe I will post pics.

I will do my best this weekend. We are eating out twice, but I know tonight is a seafood place, so that will be easy

Will try and pop on if I can....keep kicking my butt girls I need to be ready!!!

Yay!! I bet you look like a princess in that dress Aww, I wanna seeeeeee



Posted by: Cate

Hey David - how are things?

Jenny - that is what my Mom says!!!



Posted by: david

Hey Cate

It's getting really hot down here in Florida and it's not even July yet. I went to the beach hoping the water would be warm/hot but not yet.... It's still cool/cold and it takes time to get used to it. The waves were nutty and if you're not paying attention, more than likely you'll have your face down in the sand if not careful! Otherwise, life is pretty good!

I forgot to mention that I almost drowned in St. John's when I went there 3 years ago. 8 ft. waves not counting the underside! Then, the next day, it was gorgeous and went snorkeling!



Posted by: Cate

Only 7 more weeks from last Friday and I will be on the beach

Food has been OK today, but I'm craving carbs. I think I need to revamp my plan. I've started running again, so I needs my carbs!

But...no junk food!!!



Posted by: greekblondechic

I can't wait to see you in your dress!

Remember you can eat CLEAN carbs, like oaties, sweet potatoes, and brown rice

Dress up? Absolutely NOT!!! Khaki shorts and pants and T-shirt or casual button shirt are fine depending on where you're eating.

Of course, where "anything" on the beach of course.

As for women, Sundress, khaki or slacks are fine but never nothing ridiculous dressy. You can if you want to though!

I can't wait to see pics so I can bring back good ol' memories!

Oh, Cate, on my web site in the "Author Section", you'll see the view we had that overlooks Cinnamon bay. It didn't look like a nice day but it was. Strangely enough.

Posted by: ncgirl21

Hey Cate!! Only 7 weeks- Congratulations hun!! I'm sure you'll look absolutly beautiful!



Posted by: Cate

Hey Jen-

How do you attach pics in the journal (not to my gallery)?

The weather is still a bit cold, but sunny...so I wil bundle up!



Posted by: Cate

About the pics (which I will post)....my 1st pic (took pics when I tried it on) had some back fat over the top of the dress, when I had my fitting...NO BACK FAT!!! I am sooo happy about that!

Also, Jen - I want to start doing a 4-day split, what would you suggest would you suggest I do to max my time in the gym? I will still be running 3-4 days, varying miles.

Thanks!



Posted by: atherjen

how was your run girl??? Im wishin for warm weather too!!

to attach a pic in your journal when you hit "post reply" there is a box thingy that says add attachment.. hit "browse" and then serach for where you had it saved on your computer.. then hit ok. you may have to resize it if its too big.
if you have any troubles I can help resizing or post it for you.

thats SO awesome about your back!! your makin super progress!

as for the 4 day split.. each workout would probably take around 45mins.. no more than an hour at all(depends if you did abs or not).



Posted by: Jill

Beautiful bride to be pics, I cant wait!!!

Hey Jen -

Actually, I was wondering if you could give me what I should work on a 4-day split (sorry if it was confusing). What muscle groups and exercise options.

I didnt end up running ....it never go able 45 ...so tomorrow I must run!



Posted by: Cate

Here is a shot of my dress at my fitting last Sunday. Remember it's been in a box for a while and has not been pressed!
