don't call it a come back

[nikegurl]

i'm a bit worried about that actually since i'm not usually hungry to begin with. but i think it might be good for me since my calories have been low for awhile.

how are you liking the carb rotation?

 

[Jodi]

I love it. How bout you? Once you get over the carb fear its great. Nice and easy to follow

 

[nikegurl]

i love it too. it's easy and we get a wider variety of foods. i'm not sure yet on results though - but that's my own fault since i haven't stuck to it perfectly. i think i'm in the groove now so we shall see.

sure looks like it has worked for leslie and you and TP though so i'm confident! are you liking your progress on it or too soon for you to tell?

 

[nikegurl]

ok - yesterday i got 4 1/2 meals in instead of 5. but i swear i'm getting better about this. at least i got my protein in.

today is high carb so i'm gonna go for 6 meals (don't want to miss a chance to eat Fiber One) and yesterday's calories were pretty low so i think 6 meals would be good. (i should make it - i ate at 7:30 this morning so i have time)

TUES 8/12 NO CARB

Meal 1
1.5 whey
3 fish oil caps

Meal 2

Hi there.

 

[nikegurl]

hey!!!! how are you.

it's been ages! lots has happened. i moved AGAIN in july but this is better. long story.

i'm trying carb rotation now too. today is high carb day and it's time right now for my fiber one. (i love that stuff)

 

[dvlmn666]

Doing good finally, alot of stuff is goin on. And I'm gonna be moving again the end of Sept. as well. Back up to San Jose. lmao

Housing has come down and I have some computer jobs already talking to me so might have a good job to go to as well.

hmmm, do ya like your new place? It has to be better than the previous one was.

glad to hear ya like the carb rotation. High carb days are cool. I just ordered some fo the Liptigen II to try. I took a couple months off while I was learning my new job as well as the drive was to far. But saved up the $$ and have a membership close to home now. So I'm back at it.

How have you been?

 

[nikegurl]

i've got some Leptigen on the way as well.

the new place is tiny but it's cute and i'm really glad to be there. so much drama (and all of it bad) right before i moved though. now i'm settling in again and liking the peace of it all. even have a good tan going from reading by the pool on weekends. i'm happy to be on my own again.

back to powerhouse gym again and glad to be there too. nice short commute to work (20 minutes which is the shortest i've ever had)

all is well.

are you glad to be moving back?

 

[dvlmn666]

Your tanning? lol, I'm still white as a ghost. And glad your back to the gym you liked and are familiar with. That's important.

Yeah I'm glad to be moving back. The job market is better now as well as housing prices have come down. That's the only reason I moved anyway. Plus I can do what I'm doing down here up there just as easy and for the same pay.

So yes I'm anxious, but gonna take this time to get back into the gym and into the routine before I go back there.

 

[nikegurl]

yesterday was high carb day. i have to accept that 6 meals just isn't gonna happen for me right now. i'm gonna go with 5 and stick to it for awhile and not even try for 6. (i'll keep protein up)

MEAL 1
1.5 whey
3 fish oil caps
cucumber

MEAL 2
3 eggs
3 egg whites
small pear
ton of Fiber One
3 fish oil caps

MEAL 3
5 oz ground turkey
brown rice (a lot. maybe 1 1/2 cups cooked)
peach
3 fish oil caps

MEAL 4
1.5 whey
3/4 c green beans
3 fish oil caps

MEAL 5
can chicken breast
MORE Fiber One

 

[Jodi]

NG - 5 meals are fine, you know how to do this. Just make protein higher per meal and on low carb days have 2 carb meals. High carb days 3 carb meals.

 

[nikegurl]

yep - that's what i'm going to do b/c i can actually stick to that!

Thanks, Jodi

 

[Stacey]

Looking gooooood girl!!

 

[nikegurl]

Thanks for visiting Stacey!

No Carb today.

Just got new protein powder - Syntrax Nectar. WOW. This stuff is delicious. Wish I could have it for all my meals (I'm not really joking - but I won't actually do it)

MEAL 1
1.5 servings Nectar (protein powder)
3 fish oil caps

MEAL 2
5 oz ground turkey
1/2 cucumber
3 fish oil caps

will update as I eat more!

 

[Jodi]

What flavor did you get?

 

[nikegurl]

Caribbean Cooler. I heard apple was best but this sounded the most appealing. I may still try apple but this one is yummy. Very cocounutty. There are bananans and pineapples on the label but the coconut flavor is strongest.

Did you get cherry?

 

[Jodi]

I have the cherry and I like it but I want to try the others

 

[nikegurl]

hey -here's an idea. want me to scoop out 2 scoops (or do you prefer 1 1/2 so it's a serving) and mail it to you in a ziploc sandwich bag? that way you can taste the carribean cooler before buying it. pm me if you want me to.

it's no problem if you do. most people like apple. i hate apple juice but i love apple flavor candy like jolly ranchers so not sure on that one....

 

[Jodi]

hehe thanks but the shipping will cost money. How much are they again?

 

[Jodi]

Actually you know what, why not. I'm gonna order apple soon I think so then I can send you some apple to try

 

[nikegurl]

by the way...i'd put the baggie in an envelope.

 

[nikegurl]

just sent you a pm, jodi

 

[nikegurl]

started the leptigen today. only had 1 dose so far. nothing to really report. didn't totally knock out my hunger (that's ok) or anything. i'm 45 minutes from next meal and while not starving i'm definitely looking forward to it. seriously though - not judging anything based on a single Tbs dose. just logging it.

by the way - doesn't taste to bad in crystal light lemonade (thanks, Jodi!)

today is no carb. will update when more meals have been eaten.

 

[Stacey]

COOL~ I was just looking on 1fast400.com site --reading about Nectar..and I was going to ask on here if anyones tried it!! Sooo you two like it!! Thats good to know!!

Have a great day girl!

 

[nikegurl]

i think it's really really delicious. i'm pretty fussy on protein powders too. like lots of people like optimum. i like it b/c it's a good value and quality but i think it tastes absolutely wretched.

the nectar is good. really yummy! crazy part is i only mix with a spoon and if there are a few lumps that don't dissolve - i just eat them. that sounds so gross but tastes good! let me know if you decide to try it and what flavor you go with.

 

[nikegurl]

i think i decided that leptigen takes worse than i first thought (i was trying to be so positive lol)

anyway...3 Tbs Leptigen today (will stick with this all week before maybe upping it to 4)

[Jodi]
