M.J.H. · 09-19-2004, 11:58 AM

Good training session yesterday, being sore is always a good thing. Diet is looking great as usual Diana. You definitely should get some physique pictures up though.

BTW, water intake is crucial, I need to drink a lot more I think. Everything is looking great though, keep it up.

COMMENTS: Got some great news at work today...since I work at a hotel, they need the employees here to know how to do every position. Currently, I am training to work at the breakfast bar and today the person who is training me (the one I will be filling in until Oct. 13) asked if I can fill in a position for someone else on weekends after Oct. She said she was willing to "fight" over me just in case I decided to take the job because the department I've been in before (housekeeping--I'm still in it though) wouldn't let me go just like that as I do a perfect job. I was pretty surprised when she said that, but it truly made me happy -- I work hard and give it all I got; especially with my training. It's a physical job which sometimes interfers with my fitness goals, but I have to work and save up money for college. Anyways, I thought I would share this.

Thanks Ivy! I'm definitely happy with my job, even though it can get tough sometimes, but the staff atmosphere is great! Everyone supports one another.

When I get done filling in for the Breakfast Bar position, I want to focus on my training A LOT more because it's very important to me and my results.

Besides...I LOVE WEIGHT TRAINING!

Vieope · 09-22-2004, 03:53 PM

I am sort of late but welcome to IM.
I´m Vieope if you haven´t noticed it.
Btw, why not change your multivitamin to not be concerned with supplementing with more calcium and magnesium? How many mg do you take for each a day?

dianas05 · 09-22-2004, 04:03 PM

Thanks Vieope!

My multivitamin has 150mg calcium and 75mg magnesium. Then the separate supplement have 650mg of calcium, and 250mg of magnesium. You see, I only take my multivitamin from Jamieson (to me it's the best brand) because of it's natural sources. I'll check if it has higher dosages, but I don't think they do.

What do you think?

Vieope · 09-22-2004, 04:11 PM

The UL for calcium is 2500 mg/d so you are fine, magnesium is 350mg/d, you are not exactly exceeding but you may get more from other sources so that maybe something that you would need to watch. No need to panic though.
