In order to lose weight and keep it off, it's an ongoing process - thus a lifestyle change, not a fad diet or temporary solution. What I told the wife is that once she reaches her goal, she can then ease up a bit on the meal plan and have moderated cheats.

amen! except i think for me, i need cheats now.. or else my body will start hating me again

Jill · 03-30-2004, 05:26 PM

Great post NT, thanks!!

I agree, but once again, I think everything in moderation is Ok-cheats just slow down your progress... I had a few mini eggs today and didnt binge! This whole food thing is slowly getting easier for me. THANK GOD. Of course it still is a daily stuggle. Not restricting has done wonders for me.

Thanks AJ, you are the best!!!

Lets not forget about the protein in the cheese, (we'll minus the fat he he) and all the fiber in the bran, go for my digestive system!!!

???Question???? for the smart ones.... Should I be taking glutamine??? Can I have a 'simple' explanation what it does, why / when I and should take it and how much? Thanks

naturaltan · 03-31-2004, 08:29 AM

When is your meeting with Donna?

Next wed! Did you meet them yet? Any opinions? Did I forget to mention I wanted to wear sandals today too?

Off to do armies-my least fav workout....

naturaltan · 03-31-2004, 08:40 AM

The missus and I go tomorrow to chat about doing a figure comp. I think I'm there for her just as reassurance.

I have no desire to do any type of competing. That takes waaayy too much dedication and counting and monitoring. And needless to say, it would be very difficult not drinking beer while playing pool.

The missus has been wearing sandals for the last couple of weeks, regardless of the weather.

jstar · 03-31-2004, 10:42 AM

Hi Jill

Way to go on not eating all the mini eggs! You have such restraint. I wouldve eaten them all!!!

ahh ha! that too! smart cookie!

errr I mean girlie!

theres sooo much controversy over glutamine supplementation. it a nutshell it is supposed to help preserve muscle mass, hydrate cells and boost immune system. If you take it, take 5g(1tsp) in the morning, post workout and then before bed.

greekblondechic · 03-31-2004, 03:11 PM

You had chocolate and didn't binge! THATS AWESOME!!!

Jill · 03-31-2004, 07:55 PM

Well my day started out great-first 2 meals of protein pancakes....Great bi and tri workout, and I got my hair cut and highlighted!!

I got some bangs cut, which I havent had since I was like 6!!! And my hairdresser straightened it, which takes me soooooooooooooo long to do myself! After my haircut things went down hilll..... Was starving, and I went to see my parents, my dinner was basically mini eggs, 1/2 blueberry muffin, and some of Baba's mini cinnamon buns

!!! They are sooo yummy! She made a bag for me to take home, but I couldnt do it, I left them at my moms, or I would have ate the whole bag!!!! What a crappy ass meal!

Then I had a ff sf creamsicle, turkey peperonies-really good for you actually-no fat or carbs, and a diet yogurt. Tomorrow is a fresh start. It was gonna be my rest day but I think Im might go do cardio cause I ate bad today. oh well!

atherjen · 04-01-2004, 04:54 AM

new hair cut!!!

sounds sooo pretty!!

oh hunny dont be too down on yourself for eating that... think of it as a lil treat. it wasnt really a binge, so thats progress! and you were able to control it!

Have a great day beautiful!

gwcaton · 04-01-2004, 06:03 AM

Morning Jill !

BabsieGirl · 04-01-2004, 06:56 AM

naturaltan · 04-01-2004, 07:53 AM

it must be spring as the wife had her haird done yesterday as well. She has two blonde streaks at the front (well, sorta pinkish because of the red dye) and a couple of blonde chunks layered under red ... it looks very cool.

Are you going to post pics of your hair Mrs. Jill?

Stacey · 04-01-2004, 08:18 AM

Jill · 04-01-2004, 10:10 AM

I hate my bags, they are annoying and keep getting in my eyes!!!

When it goes back to curly tomorrow it wont be a problem.

I am so excited, Steve and I are going to look at show homes tonight!! We are thinking of building another house-we've only been in this new on for a year but there are things I would change-Were gonna see what prices are like and then go from there!

naturaltan · 04-01-2004, 10:16 AM

Wow ... only a year and you're moving again. Where are you looking at? We went looking last weekend out in the Twinbrooks area. We figure we'll build a house we like as we don't plan on moving or upgrading it. When we pass on, our daughter can decide what she wants to do with the house.

What kind of house do you live in now? What kind do you think you might build?
