Hello diana , just thought I'd stop by and tell you to keep up that good work. You seem to be doing very well

. Sorry if my english sux a bit , it isn't my first language , althought most people at the university say I have a good english

Anyways , I know it's not easy to get back on track sometimes , but from what I've seen in your journal since you restarted your healthy way of life , it seems very good . Take it from me , I've been there just keep it up , and you'll be so very proud of yourself

Keeping in mind that all the Im members will be proud of you !

Good luck , once again

Egoatdoor · 01-15-2005, 12:13 PM

Hi Diana. Wanted to wish you luck. The training looks good. I like the pyramidding of weights that you do. And the daily diet targets of 1800-2000 looks right on to me for reaching your goal.

I know what you mean , its not always easy to eat within 2-3 hours. Depending on what you do. But I'm sure you'll find a way to squeeze it in your daily routine. When I'm in class , I just bring a crap load of food and I eat during my classes. Sure half the class looks at me but heck , I'm satisfied with my eating

Anyways , good luck with eating more frequently and keep up what you're doing so far , you seem to be doing very well

Hey Simon,

How's it going?
We'll see how things go today at work. I really hate it when I can't eat during these 6-8 hours sometimes.

I'll try my best though!

simbh · 01-19-2005, 08:26 AM

Going very well yourself ?

Just finished an 8am class , and I'm about to go to my other one ... It's freezing cold here , geez

I am beat! Got back from work at 4pm, and I managed to actually eat my meal! I'm happy about that.

It shouldn't be a problem anymore because I know it's the key to reaching my goal. I am determined more than ever!

It was freezing cold here as well (Calgary), but no it's above normal which is a good thing. It reached -35º Celsius excluding windchill.

Anyways, the day went pretty well except for hurting my knee on the slippery pavement!

Other than that, it was good. How about yours?

Hey Mike!

Glad to see you here.

My current goal is to stick with training and my current diet. I need to work on eating regularly because I have been literally starving myself these couple of months. Too much running around without eating enough. Someone would say I must have lost weight, but it's the complete opposite. Though, I have lost a few since I started and I feel much better as well.

How are you doing?

Training: Legs & Shoulders

Legs:
1) SM Squats - 40x12, 70x12, 80x10, 100x8
2) Seated Leg Press - 150x15, 170x15, 190x12, 220x10
3) Seated Leg Curl - 40x12, 70x10, 75x10, 75x10

Shoulders:
1) Front DB Raises - 7.5x12, 10x12, 10x11
2) Lateral Raises - 7.5x13, 10x11, 10x10
3) Shoulder Press - 10x15, 10x12, 12.5x10

Comments: I had increased some of the weight in the sets from last week...felt great!
