Per FitDay 2/20
cals 2459
protein 313g (

carb 39 g
fat 113 g

Is this OK mix?

I feel DEAD from 3 pm to 6 pm. I have had actually more energy on average but from 3 to 6, I am DEAD. Any suggestions?

**P-funk** · 02-21-2003, 07:32 AM

It depends on what kind of diet you are aiming for. Right now your ratio of protein/carb/fat is 51%, 6%, 43%. I couldn't find your stats. What is your current weight?

I have been out all day...boring tax seminar....

I am 6-4, probably about 300 now, down from 318.

I have given it some thought and talked it over with some trainers and think 260-270 lbs is a good lean weight for me. I just don't think I will be able to go below that. Who knows though.

Again, I appreciate you taking the time....

Pepper · 02-21-2003, 09:21 PM

I am shutting down this thread due to general disinterest.

I don't mean to sound upset about this, yall have been very helpful whenever I have specific question. However, this journal has become a waste of time. Thanks to all of those helped. My weight is way down and my strength has only suffered slightly. I am well on my way! My clothes fit better, my face MUCH thinner...and I owe it to what i have learned here.

**P-funk** · 03-05-2003, 11:27 AM

shutting down shop, eh?

Damn, I always read your journal.

This doesn't mean you are leaving the site all together does it?

Pepper · 03-05-2003, 11:36 AM

No! No way I am leaving. I am just going to quit the journal that few commented on. I certainly appreciated your input, you have been a big help.

I really enjoy the site, just felt the journal was not worth it anymore. You and a couple of others had made comments that I had corrected and just didn't seem worth it anymore.

If what I am doing fails or does not produce the results that I need, I may start again and solicit comments.

Don't get me wrong, I am not crying about not getting the traffic other journals get, hardly anyone here even knows me.

In a few weeks, I am going to get the courage to post before and after photos. I will track you down for comments then!

Pepper · 03-05-2003, 11:37 AM

I should say "current photos" not "after"

The after photos will not be until summer. It is a long road ahead.
