Just keep rolling with it and do not deviate or fall off the band wagon. Did you start red line yet ?



EDIT: You need to place a link on your website to IronMagazine.com if you want to put a link in your sig.

han, is pork somewhat acceptable since i dont add extra fat (when doable)

havent started the redline yet hon, still waiting on my blood work results....

also..was wondering...since right now i am still seeing results off diet/exercise alone should i hold off til i plateau?

and one last thing..my redline is in my car and its below freezing out. is that going to affect it???



I can do it

REdline question - ask in supplement forum I don't think it would matter.

Pork is fine - other white meat

Ride it out till you plateau DON'T BE CHANGING THINGS WHEN THEY ARE GOING GOOD

Congrats on seeing progress. just ride it and let things happen

1/2c oatmeal 1.5 scoop protein

4oz broiled chicken (blotted) spinach small handful nuts

1.5 scoop protein 1 tbsp pb

can tuna, salad, 1 tsp olive oil

1.5 scoop protein, 1 tsp pb

i feel so icky for missing the gym for two days again, hopefully ill make it in tomorrow..
no jello today! altho i dont intend on cutting it out..just didnt need it today..
no gum yay! thats a bad one i need to cut
i had diet sodas..but starting tomorrow no more..
bloating may be temporary, but i find it compromises my mood/self esteem/motivation..so its not worth it!
plus phosphoric acid

oh and now for some good news:

doc called said all my blood work results are normal, cholesterol glucose thyroid hormones etc

still recommends birth control pills to take care of some things.. but im REALLY scared of gaining weight...



I can do it

I WILL be a size 5.

Dont worry about missing the gym hun, its best to let your body rest when it needs it. dont want to put anymore stress on it when ill.
Congrads on the positive test results! must feel relaxing. as for birth control, could you request a low dose pill.. most the of the newer kinds dont seem to cause weight gain from what I am told.
Hope you see some sun today hun

Glad everything is okay! I too have some problems that only birth control can fix but am trying to give my body a break. So far everything's a mess I think that they affect everyone differently and if you are on a low dosage you should be fine

That's great news GBC The only time I took the pill was in my teens and that was the only time I weighted more than 90lbs, till I was 22.........I only took them for 6 months and said no more..........SEX. yeah right!!! LOL...........I always used the Rhythm Method, don't reccommend it but it always worked for me, except 3 times
