Wow, I am totally not used to being this heavy. I have really been pigging out lately. Last night I went to a Chinese buffet, lol. That wasn't the greatest idea. I ate for about 90 minutes straight while I was there. Whatever, I should drop some weight pretty quick on low-carbs.

THATS THE WORD!!

Good Luck with this one hun, but I know you can do it. Like SF said- just try one thing at a time, and you know your training is right on so focus on your diet One little suggestion though- you need some veggies!!! 
Their low carb too babe!
I agree, stability is the key. I'm like you though, every week I change my diet or training routine. We both need to pick something and stay with it though. Good luck
Try as hard as you can to stick through the tough times because there will be plenty of them to come. We're all here for you! 
Now that's a hell of a drop in weight, dropping 10 lbs. on the same scale in one damn day! Talk about holding massive amounts of water yesterday, jeez. 
). Thanks for the greeting, by the way. It's good to see your training and diet is a bit more focused. Keep it up!
These help with fatloss believe it or not. And leptin, blood glucose, aids in the liver to utilize stored fats, depression, etc. Just a suggestion.

It is an efficient source of energy that will keep you able to work longer which will allow you to develop muscle more effectively. And more muscle equals accelerated basal metabolism.
But, clogged arteries are also clogged arteries. And no time in the gym is going to help that to any appreciable degree. |
you explain it better! Did you happen to watch Oprah yestarday???
See there- nothing to get worked up about!!!

Jen: Yeah I know what you mean, Jen. Bacon, sausage, and things like that are just 100% permitted on the diet, so I try and take advantage as much as I can at first. No, I didn't have a chance to watch Oprah. Was it on low-carb diets? Andrea: I am going to start eating more, that's for sure. I have just been busy lately. |
theres NO advantage to eating artery clogging, bad fats. No matter what damn diet your on!! smarten up!! tisk tisk

REAL organs on the show, the doctor talked about what happens to cause them to go downhill, your health, preventive issues, etc. btw, if you have time to eat everything else that you are then you have time to chomp down on a few vegetables. no excuses. |

If I am clogging my arteries and raising my cholesterol that's defeating the purpose of working out, etc. Thanks for bringing this to my attention Jen. No more low-carb for me, ever.

dear boy have I finally come across to you as making sense after all your countless attempts at low carbing it? wahoo.. but DO NOT start another damned journal. Life is about making mistakes and LEARNING and growing and moving on from them. Just continue on.
