"30-Day" Diet Plan

BabsieGirl · 03-02-2004, 11:55 AM

LOL

I know that's hard to do. Just think about your comp darlin. Think of the set back. Not about how good it's going to taste on the way down.

I remember when I was dieting for my comps, every sweet I didn't like before, suddenly became something I wanted SOOO BAD!!! And WHAT WAS WITH THE PEANUT BUTTER??? I never ate peanut butter. That too became a craving. Be thankful you don't have kids. It was so hard giving them sweets and Ice Cream during those times. Ugh....I don't know how I survived.

I'm hoping the headache is from stress rather than my Lupron Injection. Headache is a reaction to it and I'm waiting it out for a couple weeks before telling my doctor about them. If I suffer more from the effects of Lupron more so than the benefit, I'll need to take NORETHINDRON ACETATE in addition. So far the headaches are starting in the evening and worsen as the night goes by, then it wears off around 10am or little later.

I do have a teenager, but he lives with his dad. OMG..it's bad when he comes to visit...He EXPECTs me to either make him pancakes, french toast or choc. chip cookies. Pure hell. Just not right.

I won't eat the choc. I can have lunch in an hour, which will be the last carb meal for the day. Majority of the bad foods are not in the house, so we are ok there. Have you tried Honey Peanut Butter?

It's yummy!!! I wonder how that would be in making pb cookies?

Hi Babsie!

I'm sorry you are in pain hun. I hope those shots do the trick and then you can decide when you feel up to having the surgery.

Sure we "slim down" together! I'm giving the carb cycling a shot. It's not super-structured and pretty simple to figure out. The no carb days stink but it's only 24 hours at a time.

Hope you are having a good day!

JLB001 · 03-02-2004, 01:50 PM

Babsie...are you gonna be going to the Arnie??

Rissole · 03-02-2004, 03:18 PM

Know what your sayin about the cravings Babs

I have been taking cromium to help, it works ok.....

Am upping the prayers for you too darling

OMG

I had no idea. I'm sorry if I offended you hon. WOW......... you look grrrreat mom!!!!! LOL, he expects you to? Tell'em it should be the other way around.

I know what you're saying though. It is pure hell. Temptation is so close at that point.

So, did you eat a tiny sliver of choc? Tell the truth! Just kidding. I know you didn't dear. I'm proud of you.

Like you, I tried to keep all the bad foods out of the house. But then good'ol grammy comes in and

NO SNACKS???? Got the guilt trip. I started out with those ice pops incase I'd ACCIDENTALLY "sleep walk" to the freezer during the night....

Then I got a grip and the diet was getting easier and easier. Soon, there was no more cheating.

Mmmmm PB cookies.

Evening J!!!!

How was your day?

Aww I'm sure the pain will go away. *gulp* I hope!

Okay. If all goes well with the injection and I have no side effects for the rest of the week, the diet is on!

tomorrow if it's nice, I'm going to hit the trails.

I was going to be working a booth. Then I got fat and had surgery so I'm out. Free will!

As long as I'm pain free, I plan on going for a little while. My PT may be working a booth. Not sure which one. A guy called him up Monday and asked. Said he'd pay him $500 bucks for Fri, Sat & Sun.....Not bad. I'm sure his feet will kill after the first day.

ARE YOU ARE YOU???????

JLB001 · 03-02-2004, 03:59 PM

I'm not offended at all! No biggy.

No..I didn't eat any bad foods. I'm eatting my turkey and broccoli right now. Just add feathers..

I can tell you're working through those awful cravings. It's tough and you deserve a nice pat on the back for sticking this out. Aren't you planning to compete?

OHHHH.....You have a beautiful family!!!!

We had planned to in Nov. But Craig has board preps this weekend. So not this year! I think we plan to go to Nationals since its only a short drive up to Dallas.

Your not fat! Just having some medical issues that are being addressed is all. You'll be back to your ole self in no time!

greekblondechic · 03-02-2004, 04:22 PM

I am craving chocolate right now

Anybody got some they can give me?

I thought I was going to get back into training soon. Looks like I'm further delayed than I thought. I need to get my cardio in before I turn into a whale and my goals go down the tubes.

Was going to do cardio last night but didn't. The moment I walked into the gym, my ovaries started to hurt REALLY BAD like they were swelling. It hurt them when ever I was to relax my ab muscles. So, I had to hold my tummy. After that I got this HUGE headache....just came from no where.................While I was there I managed to catch up with my PT and friends. It FELT GRRRREEEATTT to smell my gym. I know that sounds ill

But when you've been away for so long then go back, it's such a great feeling. And to see how much I've been missed and thought of. I'm going to try again sometime this week.

You're so right, I feel so much better about myself when I train. Our bodies need that both physically and mentally. Can't wait to start up again.

Aww, I wish you were here too OR, I were where you are. I love work out partners that have the same level of intensity. Calls for a great w/o

We'll have to set ourselves up with the same w/o then see who sticks with it or where our breaking points are....That would be FUNNNNN

Thank you for stopping in hon. It's great chatting with you always

Hey girl!! Just checking in on you! I know what ya mean about the "smell" of the gym~ I missed that place so much with my first surgery!! It was great to go back, and like you sometimes I would drive up to it, and then start hurting and have to leave. Take your time!

I miss chatting with you- I'm trying to catch up right now.

Tomorrow I am going to an interview & then running by my doctor. They want me to come in for a bloodtest b/c they think I'm pregnant!!!

Have a great night!!

Thanks for the multiple compliments Babs :kiss
Yes, thinking of competing May 25th

If anyone deserves a pat on the back its you

BabsieGirl · 03-03-2004, 03:08 PM

Hey everyone. Sorry for not posting in here today. My injection must be getting to me and I'm starting to get all moody. I may call my doctor tomorrow if this keeps up.

I can't shake the headache, stomach pain, nausea feeling and irritability....................I've been ignoring people at work also because I was feared I'd say something and hurt someones feeling or possibly piss someone off.

UGH -- my head feels like it could float off my neck. I'm wearing my glasses because I have blurred vision. Not too bad though. if I stand up my head POUNDS.........So I'm just a cranky ass Biatch today and I"m sorry for not responding. I've been in a mood.

I promise to try and respond tomorrow. Just seems like the Lupron thing is going to cause more pain that I'd like right now. I need to stick this out BECAUSE MY INSURANCE IS SCREWED UP!!! I swear a man must've written that end of the policy.

I hope you guys understand

I still love and think about you

greekblondechic · 03-03-2004, 03:12 PM

Aww babsie I hope u feel better soon and dont worry about us we understand if u r not feeling well

stupid insurance

Rissole · 03-03-2004, 03:31 PM

Hey Babs we all understand, there's really even no need for explaination.
Just dont get down ok

You da bomb gurl

MissOz · 03-04-2004, 12:52 AM

Bab's go and take care of...YOU!!! just focus and stay relaxed until you feeling better OK.xx

Stacey · 03-04-2004, 08:24 AM

Babs! Hey sweetie!! Of course we understand! Sounds like you are getting ALL of the side effects from the Lupron. I'm so sorry honey. I have to tell you that you sound just like my best friend when she was on it. She was SO mean to me, but I knew it wasn't the 'real her'--it was the medicine-- It does make you extremly moody- I had to deal with her for over a year on it. And She still has the endometriosis. However, she didn't have it in her colon like you. So don't give up hope- I'm sorry about the side effects- I know it really really really sucks!!!!

You are in my thoughts!!

Oh I'm sorry. Wish you guys could've followed through with your plans. There's always next year, right?

You'll have to let me know how the Dallas Nationals go.

Oh hon, I put on 50lbs. I look like a mess. Hopefully when I start feeling better (which feels like never at the moment) I'll get back into shape.

Aw thanks for checking on me. That's sweet!!!!

Yeah, I cannot wait to get back in the game. I miss everyone. I was talking to my PT yesterday and he asked when I was coming back and I told him next week. So, I'm gonna try it out again. See how it works.

Why is that? Why does the pain increase when we get near the gym??

That really puzzled me.

I miss chating with you too hon. I'll try to do better

COOL!!!!!! You have an Interview!!!! You're going to do FINE!!! Oh, and you'll have to let me know about the test results...That's if you don't mind sharing

We'll have to plan an IM Baby Shower!!!

Miss you

You're welcome darlin

COOL!!! So you're cutting now huh? You're going to do very well. Dont be scare hon. Things will be okay. When you're up on stage, show them judges YOU'RE WHAT THEY WANT......You need to have that attitude. Don't make funny looking faces! When you pose, you need to have that relaxed look on your face. I'd also start practising your poses and holding for 30 sec counts and increasing them up to 1 min. You need to work out the shakes cause you could be on stage for a LONG time.

Keep us posted hon!!!!! I'm excited for you.

Thanks hon. I hope I get to feel better soon as well. I just don't think it's going to be any time soon. I believe everything will stop 10 weeks after my last injection which is in May or July. I'm going to get worse

About the insurance, I'm thinking about calling them during my lunch hour. I want to know why they think people need to suffer on top of suffering before they permit extreme surgery. IMO, when it's needed and the doctor says it's needed.......THEN ITS NEEDED

I mean DAMN, if my doctor said I had time to try therapy that's one thing, but to be paying for health insurance and have them tell you, "Oh I'm sorry, but you need to do this first before we'll cover X surgery!" when they know the side effects of this stuff and knowing the extreme of X disease.................
