Greeky gets serious!!!

PreMier · 02-04-2004, 07:15 PM

VIBE This is the stuff. Just take one ounce with a bit of water when you wake up. Its the best thing I have ever taken... and I have taken a lot of shit!

JLB001 · 02-04-2004, 07:16 PM

Your energy levels will pick back up when you get the right amount of food back in you.

Jill · 02-04-2004, 07:18 PM

Greeky, I have a funny story to tell you. Member yesterday the whole 'peanuts in the high cubbord?' My hon forgot to put them in their proper place, and he left them in the pantry, at 'my' eye level. I woke up in the middle of the night, looked for a snack, and ate a whole bunch of peanuts. YUM! ooops, i mean smack my wrist, bad girl.

greekblondechic · 02-04-2004, 07:19 PM

lol!!! *bends jill over and spanks her*

yes I take a multi, and JLB I have been eating sooo much lately!!!

Jill · 02-04-2004, 07:57 PM

**Jodi** · 02-04-2004, 09:39 PM

Greeky, I was wondering if you calculate your macros and if so what they were for the day?

greekblondechic · 02-04-2004, 09:45 PM

No I havent Jodi, I can try but since I'm not sure of my portions..

greekblondechic · 02-04-2004, 09:49 PM

BTW I just booked a trip to MIAMI for spring break in mid March

I want to get as lean as possible before I go!

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

**Jodi** · 02-04-2004, 09:51 PM

I don't mind helping as I've told you.

I am curious on your macros though.

greekblondechic · 02-04-2004, 10:22 PM

ok based on my approximations on fitday.com

1776 cals, 80g fat, 86g carbs, 182g protein

I ate A LOT today!!!!!! holy sh*t!

keep in mind these are based on guesses

**Jodi** · 02-04-2004, 11:00 PM

What is your height and weight?

greekblondechic · 02-04-2004, 11:11 PM

a lil under 5'7 weight not sure... should be around 148 but since i hold a lot of water often as high as 152..

**Jodi** · 02-04-2004, 11:37 PM

Then you should be eating approx. 1950 cals per day.

Yes, this is to lose weight. Of course this is an estimate and could be slightly higher or lower.

Your carbs are so low - no wonder you don't have any energy

greekblondechic · 02-04-2004, 11:40 PM

and this is after bumping up my carbs significantly..

greekblondechic · 02-04-2004, 11:41 PM

those cals seem awfully high..

**Jodi** · 02-05-2004, 12:11 AM

That is not too high by anymeans.

Your carbs are so low and to think you eat that low or lower everyday makes me tired

I don't know how you make it to the gym. You really need a refeed.

greekblondechic · 02-05-2004, 12:14 AM

I am trying to change things right now since everybody seems to agree I havent been eating enough

Lead me on the right path

**Jodi** · 02-05-2004, 12:19 AM

Sure but I need to know what your looking for.

greekblondechic · 02-05-2004, 12:20 AM

lose fat but not add muscle mass since i already have too much

**Jodi** · 02-05-2004, 12:30 AM

How bout in terms of diet?

What do your workouts look like? How much cardio do you do?

greekblondechic · 02-05-2004, 12:36 AM

Diet, I dont know..something that will work

lately nothing...too tired/lazy

used to be 3 day split weights, cardio 5x week for 45mins

Jenny · 02-05-2004, 12:59 AM

Yeay, Jodi is here!

Greek, listen to her and you'll be in spring break shape soon

Btw, have you ever been to Greece? I usually go there every summer, I looooove the Greek islands! Justin and I are going there for a week or two this summer

greekblondechic · 02-05-2004, 01:10 AM

Hey Jenny, Yes I'm very much looking forward to working with Jodi

I'm so frustrated and down about things lately

I just binged on peanuts peanut butter sugar free preserves cocoa and splenda, and I havent really binged due to emotions in about a month so this sucks.

Yes I've been to the island called Mytilini/Lesvos which is where my parents are from, thats awesome that you go, where are you and Justin going this summer, do you know?

It is so cute watching the days count down in yours and his sigs

Jenny · 02-05-2004, 02:08 AM

Aww, I'm sorry about the binge. I had a peanut butter binge yesterday too

It wasn't about emotions though, I just wanted peanut butter

I've been an emotional eater too and it's hard to deal with, I hope that it'll be easier for you once you're on a new diet. When you're on a diet with the nutrients you need you won't crave as much

You've been eating too little for some time and your body is probably screaming for food..

I don't know where Justin and I are going this summer yet, but I'd love to go to Corfu since I've never been there. In 2002 I went to Poros, an adorable island close to Athens, it was wonderful

Haha, yeah, it's motivating to change the numbers in my sig each day to know it's one day closer

atherjen · 02-05-2004, 04:47 AM

Greek, Jenny and Jodi are 110% right. hang in there hun, were all here for you!! and Jodi can defintly steer you on the right track!!

(did u get my PM yestarday?)

I get them at 7-11

trust me, shakes are better for ya (cheaper too!)

Today:

3/4c oats 6 whites
4 strawberries

broiled blotted chicken, salad, peanuts
half a mango

2 scoops protein 1 tbsp pb
more peanuts

celery 1 tsp pb

boiled chicken, salad 1 tsp olive oil

last meal - cottage cheese or eggs and 1 tsp pb

AGAIN NO WORKOUT OMG, I have gotten so lazy!

However, I do have an interview with a company I've been trying to get an internship at

*sigh* I am so bloated from eating a lot more than I'm used to, and not working out isn't helping..

It sucks how hard it is to make yourself go to the gym when you havent gone in a while...

I swear the more I read about thyroid problems the more I think I have one..

I'm sad..wish I was normal...

Thank you for the info sweetie, sticking with my shakes........haven't been hiding, just busy, hang in there babe, Jodi's awesome, she'll

you into shape, and you are normal babe, if your worried about your thyroid, get it checked, it will have an effect on everything.........Chin up honey, hope you get the internship, that would be a boost for ya

I get lazy too, discouraged, then I look in the mirror and cry

but I keep going, as you are, thinking of you sweetie

Stacey · 02-05-2004, 08:26 AM

Yeah Jodi is in here!!

HI Greeky!!

Your in great hands!! Keep your chin up and smile-- I go through the same thing your going through--quite often.. and I understand!!!!! I'm so glad you have help in here.
Don't u wish they could come to your home everyday and babysit you--lol--I know I do!!!

Your going to look hot in Miami!!!

greekblondechic · 02-05-2004, 08:30 AM

Aww Jenny u've been to more islands than I have

Yes Jen I bought tea tree oil gonna wait til the weekend to try in case I turn red as a beet

I don't know how to quite go about getting my thyroid checked, my blood tests came out normal, but a lot of sites are saying the blood tests arent always accurate

All I can say is crack that whip, I can take it

*HUGS* and

to my lovely ladies

What would I do without you guys?? (binge much more often!)

greekblondechic · 02-05-2004, 08:30 AM
