Hey Ivy,

Long time no chat. Congratulations on achieving your goal, and I must say you have gotten fabulous results from this whole experience! Way to go!!!!

Can you tell me what split you followed for training and if you're still doing the same one? How many reps/sets for each body part?

I am ready to start my whole training & nutrition program so I may start a new journal as A LOT of things have changed these last couple of weeks.

I hope you continue getting the results you're looking for...I'll be stopping by here often to motivate you and to catch up on the "talk of the day".

Have a great day!

What, are we averaging 1 w/o per 10 pages in here

hey pal. i post my workout EVERY DAY. Sat i only did cardio and abs and even posted that. Sunday was off. But check backpages... don't be coming in here talking trash like that!

GoalGetter · 11-01-2004, 09:48 AM

I hate that i have to log in to fitday to use it, but they only have a PC version if i want to download it.

In my searches on the intenret, i found this:

Diet Sleuth and Health Tracker. For fellow mac users, just wanted to let you know i'm gonna try them out for a few days and see if they're worth the $34.99 and $9.99 purchase prices, respectively.

Hey GG

I just purchased Calorie King, it looks identical to Diet Sleuth. I tried the free trial for 2 weeks and it only cost me 19.99 to purchase. I love it, it's way better than Fit Day. Check it out at www.calorieking.com. I definately don't regret getting it

Let me know what you think. I'll be pissed if Diet Sleuth is better than Calorie King after I just bought it. Hey, have you tried your barley yet? What's it taste like in comparison to rice

Hey Diana! Thanks! I'm still a work in progress, but hell yeah - this has been the best thing I've ever done for myself.

My split:

Mon and Thurs: Legs and shoulders, abs, cardio
Tues and Fri: Chest, Back, Bis, Tris, abs, cardio
Wed and Sat: light abs and cardio
Sun: rest

Reps/Sets and Rest:

For legs and shoulders, I'd been doing four giant super sets, between 12-15 reps per exercise in each set. For chest and back, three giant super sets, 12-15 reps. Rest periods are 45-60 seconds between GS Sets.

Best of luck with your revamped training and diet -- Let me know when you start the new journal so i can check in on you!

What are your goals this time around?

Barley... it's not bad at all. it's mushier than rice. Think sticky rice or risotto... sortof. At least the way I cook it. maybe I'm doing it wrong. I like the way it tastes! I cook it in my hitachi rice cooker with garlic powder or my mccormick's salt free garlic and herb spices and like 1 tbsp of evoo.

DUDE. hold that thought. I will look into some cheap flights. Why the hell not. Damn. I've got big things planned for early next year but a ski vacation might as well become a part of it!!! Seriously. Am i flying into denver if i go there? or somewhere else?

and please don't think for one second that i'm kidding around! hahaha! I'm serious! i'll go!

Burner02 · 11-01-2004, 11:20 AM

Wahoo!
Yeah! Denver! I'm only a 45 minute drive from there. The resorts are only about an hour to 1 1/2 hour drive up the mountains.
Actually, lemme finish my registration and I will be qualified as a referring travel agent! I may be able to get you a great package deal myself! (plus, earn me some travel credits)

the highlight of my weekend was taht i had some desserts (brownies, cheesecake and rugelach!).

I read about your little strip club escapade! hahah!

I got my first private client as a personal trainer today.

Baby steps.

I'm psyched as all hell about it.

naturaltan · 11-01-2004, 12:08 PM

yeah ... it was quite entertaining. The dancers that night were only looking to do the required X minutes and get off the stage. So the ladies decided to create entertainment on their own. The bouncer was nice about it ... he asked that either we just sit down or leave because the dancers were complaining (which I guess they had a right to

) about costumers not paying attention to them.

Halloween at home was fun. Our daughter had a party before she went trick/treating ... she had a great time. We have many compliments throughout the night on the great decorating job we did. It was nice to hear ... and the Mrs. didn't even get to do half the stuff she would have liked to do.
