4/15/

Pre-workout:
small banana
pb oat muffin I didn't mean to eat this much, but got caught up in work and ran later than expected

3 mile Run

proten w/blueberries

The rest of the day is going to be hard because I'm working the rooftop at the Cubs game...so I will probably bring another muffin and eat some fruit I will have to work on small portable foods that I can keep behind the bar!

GO CUBBIES!!!

Thanks guys! You are all so good for the ego

The rooftop gig is fun and I just do it when I can (I have a day job). My friend owns it, so it's a blast! The guys are good...it's strange working w/a ring this year...but they don't seem to care! I got pretty good tips today and on guy (older, just being nice) bought me a Cubs visor! It was sooo nice of him. Last year a guy (this one hitting on me) bought me this really cute little pink Wrigleyville tank top.

I've never gotten Jenny Garth...but I'll take it . And I think Stacey is prettier than Trista

I had some skinny cow ice cream

This day sucked, but I somehow convince myself that I've been eating too much and was unable to eat more

I feel better since I've increased my calories, but sometimes I think it can't be like this and I freak out....and I dont eat so much...it's a cycle

Hey Ladies ...I love Friday!

I had my last meeting w/the trainer today and she set up a program for me to follow. I will post it later, so I can get feedback. She tested my body fat and took measurements. I really didn't go down, except I evened out my legs (I had broken my ankle last Sept and one leg was stronger and larger than the other), so that is good.

But.......my body fat went from 18.2% - 15.8% In four weeks!!! My weight stayed the same...126.

This weekend we are going to my friends wedding in Lake Geneva, WI (about 2 hours away)...so I cannot wait!!!

Happy Friday!!!

Hey Cate!
Protein looks better yesterday Keep working on getting it up, I think 150g would be good for you at least

The Leptigen could probably take some time to get used to, just keep track of what you're feeling I'm thinking of trying some too, but it's so damn expensive and I'm just a poor college student

Good job on the run yesterday! Have you ever tried Spinning? I love it, I'm an instructor at my local gym and it just rocks. I'm about to go take a class in an hour
