Tony's Lifestyle Change

KataMaStEr · 08-16-2004, 11:19 PM

Don’t worry about it, NOBODY in here can say they haven’t had shitty days when they didn’t give a damn about anything. Just don’t make it a habit

Tomorrow hit those weight like if you life depended on it

When are you going to start tracking your carbs, proteins and fats?

**Jodi** · 08-16-2004, 11:56 PM

It's just a matter of waking of the next day and moving on.

**P-funk** · 08-17-2004, 04:12 AM

hang in there man

Sapphire · 08-17-2004, 06:52 AM

Listen Tony...

there are days where I couldnt lift a dumbbell if my life depended on it... we ALL feel that way sometimes!! It's normal. Dont sweat it and DON'T GIVE UP!! Relax... this a complete life style change NOT a diet. If you drank a smoothie, GREAT,hope you loved it, cause you aint having another one for a while!

Have a good workout today. You will feel better afterwards!!!

Hi All,

Thanks for the kind words. I really was down in the dumps yesterday. You have to understand, and Raul may understand it more than anyone here, Fidel Castro is a really bad guy and the guy now governing Venezuela is in the same boat as Castro. I don't want to see that beautiful rich country become a country that's so far in the 1950's that it's become worthless. I don't want my family to flee Venezuela the same way that they fleed from Cuba.
To resolve my mental "stupidity", I simply grabbed a book and read a bit and went to sleep. Sometimes sleeping on it helps. Also, sometimes, you get a laugh from the most unexpected people. Funny story, my boy Anthony woke me up like at 4:30 am. Yup, that's 4:30 in the morning. Anyways, the little Barracuda, as I have now began calling him because he likes shiny stuff, was on my bed, where my wife had put him to feed him while she went to get the milk in the kitchen. I was sound asleep and I start hearing someone saying: "ma ma pa pa" and grabbing for my chain on my chest (mind you he missed a few times and grabbed chest hairs instead

).I woke up looked at him and he smiled at me. I started laughing. I know it was early in the morning, but that will fix a shitty day quickly. I remembered what I had written last night and how down I was and started laughing harder. My son had never called my name, never said "papa", so I was pretty happy....

The truth here is that my kids and my family are the things that get me going.
Yesterday I had a bad day, but today at 4:30 am, my day started in a good note. I got off the bed and started preparing my day's meals. I even worked on my RR routine. The greatest thing about yesterday's debacle of a day, was that I woke up refreshed and ready. It also showed me that my mind is in the right track. I was upset because I hadn't been able to work out. A month ago I woulnd't have given a crap. I was upset because I didn't eat right. The cheat was so minimal that it didn't bother me. It was the fact that I didn't eat the meals that I wanted to eat, which also shows me that I am going in the right direction.
Raul, I had started using that great link the last couple of days before I left to NYC. Today I am going slowly at it....I'll be Ok there.
This is my what I ate today for breakfast:

2 slices of multigrain bread
1/2 oz of 2% cheese
1/2 cup of fat free milk
Nasty, nasty cereal. I am not sure of the name but it has to be good for you because it's just nasty (I'll probably post it later when I go thru my whole set of meals for the day). I added three packs of equal.
3 Fish oil capsules

Meal 2:

Whey powder with 8 oz of fat free milk
3 oz. crab meat
3 fish oil capsules...

I'll go into more detail later....

Once again all, thanks for the comments, they do help......

fantasma62 · 08-17-2004, 10:43 AM

Ok, before I do this, I am posting my RR workout.

Awwwww, the things you write make me just want to give you a hug! That's awesome about your son, I am sure you are very excited!

My Miriam says that I am huggable...

I created this journal not just for working out, but in reality it is for my new lifestyle. If I can post when things are bad, as I did yesterday, I can post when things are good. Anytime my kids do something good they make me smile, and when they are bad they make me laugh. Why? I remember my mom saying: "I hope that when you have kids they are just like you" (I call it the Parent Curse)

fantasma62 · 08-17-2004, 09:25 PM

Well, I did say I was going to have a good day today. I had a good day eating and I am dead tired after my workout (RR). In fact, I got much more tired with this routine than with power. I also noticed that I was a little stronger. During some exercises, I was able to lift almost as much today as I did during my Power routine.
Anyway, here is my routine for today:

DB Press:
7 x 30
8 x 25
9 x 20

Inclined Bench Press:
10 x 85
11 x 75
12 x 70

Flyes:
13 x 20
15 x 15

Pull Over:
16 x 15
20 x 10
I was exhausted when I first started with my pull overs. I didn't think I could do it, but I gave it a go. That's as much as I could lift.

I am pretty happy with my workout. I am no longer, looking at what I used to do and that makes me very excited to continue with legs tomorrow....

I'll keep on trying to see what I can do.....

**Jodi** · 08-17-2004, 10:58 PM

Just keep on adding until you have reached it. You will become hungrier over time as your metabolsim speeds up and will have no problem figuring out where to add it

It takes time to speed your metabolism up so don't rush it.

KataMaStEr · 08-18-2004, 04:09 AM

^ YUP, what she said

Sapphire · 08-18-2004, 07:06 AM

I am so proud of you Tony!!! You are doing awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously GREAT!! I get very tired doing RR too!! Less rest between sets.

I am doing shock week, did shoulders, tris and abs yesterday. LEGS today.

You are so lucky Jodi is helping you!!! She is great! Maybe add another meal? Go for 6? I just ate Fiber One cereal... and I gotta go to the

now!!!

Hi Cindy, thanks for the encouragement....
I just can't fit in another meal. I am so full all the time.....

Hi Jodi, thanks for the heads up. I didn't know I'd be hungrier. I am eating a whole lot right now and the fact that I lost all that weight the first week might be attributed to lack of calories right? It all came back the last two days in NYC and the weekend since I got here on a thursday. The funny thing is that I didn't eat that much, and when I did, it was a lot of peppers, mussels, oysters, shrimp and oh yeah

veal scallops and wine.....

Still, that was just my last night. The rest of the time was lots of walking and no time to eat....It makes complete sense. My metabolism slowed to a crawl while in NYC...

Hey Raul, as usual, thanks for the thoughts....

**Jodi** · 08-18-2004, 12:50 PM

You guys are sweet

I just try to help when I can.

Tony - It can take several months for your metabolism to speed up. Between eating healthy and working out it will happen and when it does....

Watch out hunger pangs.

greekblondechic · 08-18-2004, 01:18 PM

Yeah, every three hours I'm starving, and I think my metabo is slow!

Hey Raul, and no joke intended, Jodi has "revealed" to me many things that Doctors simply have never taken the time to tell me. Both in question and answer sessions, or the sticky. See, I have tons of respect for her because she has been in my shoes, just like the other Jodie (JLB001)

. They both have been able to surpass her problem with weight to become a competitor. That takes guts and that's something that I respect and hope to emulate...

Actually, for what I am understanding, if you are hungry every three hours, your metabolism is fast, because your body is asking you for food. At this moment, I am eating 5 meals where I feel literally stuffed. Jodi says that once my metabolism gets cranking, I will feel hungrier....That, believe it or not, scares me some, but that's one hill I will probably have to climb when I get there....

JLB001 · 08-18-2004, 01:42 PM

ewww....Hunger pangs suck the BIG one!

Jodi is right...once the metabo kicks in, you'll be hungry quicker.

fantasma62 · 08-18-2004, 05:37 PM

I have eaten the most ill, the most stomach wretching snack I have had in a long time.

So I go to the market and buy myself a little container with real crab meat. I am thinking, this has to be good. So I get to the register and the lady charges me $10 for a small container. I almost flipped, but I bought it anyway (wife would kill me if she knew

)
I got home and tried it, and it was really nothing out of this world, so I decide to add lemon and tabasco. It improved the flavor. This was on sunday mind you.
So today I take that to work to eat with my Whey shake. My first meal during work I ate the crab meat (again, nothing out of this world) and the cottage chees on the side. Not to godaweful. For my afternoon meal (after lunch meal) I was going to do the same and thought, hmmm, if I add a little Cottage Cheese to this it may be pretty good (you know, famous last words...), so I did. OMG, what a mistake that was. That was the most ill tasting mix I have had in a long time. Being the trooper that I am, seeing that I needed the proteins, carbs and fat, ate 80% of it. However, right now I think about that mistake of a meal and

.
Sometimes you make errors that are larger than anything you have ever done. I have cooked many weird things in my life and most of them have come out pretty good. This, not so good.....
Just a story.....

fantasma62 · 08-18-2004, 10:04 PM

Well, I don't know what this nasty mixture did for me, but I wasn't able to eat anything else and decided to hold back my workout for the day. I am feeling better now though...
I have been feeling, as kids say, yucky. Every time I think about that I get queezy. I am going to bed and sleeping early. The last few days I have been falling asleep really late and waking up really early, which is catching up to me.
Tonight I played with my kids all night, which to me that's better than anything in this world. No, I have not lost my focus. I just needed to rest tonight.
The only good news about this is that today was Legs, the strongests part of my body.
All in all I am pretty happy that I did this today and I'll be fully ready for shoulders and back tomorrow...
Hey Cindy, if you can check out my shoulder and back workout below:
Shoulders and back

Single arm dumbbell press
Shoulder Shrugs
Wide Grip Upright Row
Dumbbell Front Raises
Pulldowns

Good night all....

greekblondechic · 08-18-2004, 11:27 PM

No deadlifts?

Sapphire · 08-19-2004, 07:30 AM

[quote=fantasma62]Hey Cindy, if you can check out my shoulder and back workout below:
Shoulders and back

Shoulders
Single arm dumbbell press 2x4-6
Shoulder Shrugs 2x8-10
Wide Grip Upright Row 2x10-12
Dumbbell Front Raises 2x 16-18

Back
WG Pulldowns 2x4-6
CG underhand pulldowns 2x10-12
bent over dumbbell rows (do you know how to do these?) 2x14-16
DEADLIFTS (as per GBC

) 2 sets 2x16-18 (keep weight relatively light)

If pressed for time.. skip CG underhand pulldowns and do BODRs 10-12 reps, and deads 14-16!!

For my afternoon meal (after lunch meal) I was going to do the same and thought, hmmm, if I add a little Cottage Cheese to this it may be pretty good (you know, famous last words...), so I did. OMG, what a mistake that was. That was the most ill tasting mix I have had in a long time. Being the trooper that I am, seeing that I needed the proteins, carbs and fat, ate 80% of it. However, right now I think about that mistake of a meal and . Sometimes you make errors that are larger than anything you have ever done. I have cooked many weird things in my life and most of them have come out pretty good. This, not so good..... Just a story.....

I am feeling better now though... I have been feeling, as kids say, yucky. Every time I think about that I get queezy. I am going to bed and sleeping early. The last few days I have been falling asleep really late and waking up really early, which is catching up to me. Tonight I played with my kids all night, which to me that's better than anything in this world. No, I have not lost my focus. I just needed to rest tonight. The only good news about this is that today was Legs, the strongests part of my body. All in all I am pretty happy that I did this today and I'll be fully ready for shoulders and back tomorrow... Hey Cindy, if you can check out my shoulder and back workout below: Shoulders and back Single arm dumbbell press Shoulder Shrugs Wide Grip Upright Row Dumbbell Front Raises Pulldowns Good night all....
