Oh don't worry Tony, I understand. I hope everything is fine.
Diet and execise and all that is really looking super Diana! Keep up the hard work.
BTW, take your time on the pics. I am actually a bit shy as well. But that usually goes away once you post pics, lol. Anymore it's like second nature for me.

Well, today was my little cheat day so I had some chocolate and a little bit of ice cream (neopolitan) 
Also, my sister celebrated her 25th birthday today...it's amazing how times flies so fast, it's as though I'm still in the same day. She is my training partner, although we have 2 different goals, we are a great motivating team!

Mike: Thank you. My bike ride was fantastic...lots of up and down hills which required different intensities so I did interval training. My legs got a little swollen and they were sore afterwards! 
I love biking though.
Jen: I'm glad everything's good. No, at the moment I am focusing on saving up money for school and when I think it's time, I'll definitely go back to study Kinesiology -- I want to be a personal trainer.

good girl! Sometimes taking a year and getting your head together and off school is a great idea.. not to mention the money that you can save!
I'm thinking of Mount Royal College or U of C here in Calgary, but I'm not quite sure yet.
I'll definitely have a lot of money saved up, and I can also take some courses I need to get into a college/university. Though, it's mostly based upon relaxing and focusing on my training & work that I'm taking this break. Sometimes in school you're mind can go wild with all that mental thinking!

***Goals for the next 7 weeks 'till my birthday***:
~Eat clean without any cheat meals (this will be tough, but I will have a day or 2 in which I will up my calories
)
~Do cardio every day, 6 days/week
~ Weight train heavy 3 days/week
~ Include both Pilates & Functional training at least once a week
~ Drink LOTS of water (I haven't been doing so well these couple of days
)
~ When cravings kick in, simply resist them by listening to music or doing a hobby such as reading
~ Be determined and focused without any disturbances along the way! (work, STRESS, etc.)
These are my plans for the next couple of weeks. My goal is to shed bf -- if I'm lucky, I will gain muscle as well. BritChick has really motivated me with her before & after pics to get my butt in shape, and it's simply a coincidence that I have 7 weeks to my birthday so I'm hoping I can have at least half of her results when I reach that date! 
I will be more than happy to receive advice/comments from anyone on this forum.

Hi Diana, I couldn't agree with you more. Britchick really has to be considered a motivating force here in IM. Her before and after photos have also made a difference in me too. Also, you need to see JBL's (Jodie) before and after photos. You will flip out. Oh, and let's not forget Rod, Britts' husband...dianas05 said:September 12th, 2004

I have found that more people than I thought here in IM have been fatties before. Not like me, but still fatties...
I really like the way you have broken down your meals. Pretty organized. I will copy it and use it myself.....
Your goals are attainable and I will be behind you hoping that you do meet your goals in 7 weeeks...
I will check out other memebers before & afters as well...
Tony, I am hoping you will be my motivator because I've read in almost everyone's journal how great you're advice is! Heck, by giving advice to someone else you're already making me feel as though I can attain my goals.

I did say I'd be by here a lot to read and write, however, with us getting hurricane after hurricane coming our way, I was really busy and tired and unmotivated, all in one lump of coal.
I have been working out, but it's been tough. I will be by more often...
I do understand your situation, so if you get a chance I hope you know it will be worthwhile to post because you are my motivator (words mean so much to me!).
I'm glad you're exercising even with the hurricanes. I bet it's tough. I hope everything will be alright and you can go back to your daily routine.

I seem to reacll reading that yogurt pre/post workout is not recommended. I cant remember why.
Ill see if I can dig it up withing the next few days. Other than that good luck with all your goals, and you seem to have a great plan under control.

Mike: Thanks. I will be turning 18, but I sometimes feel so old, lol! I don't have ANYTHING in common with people my age. Basically everyone I talk to is older and mature.
I've always liked Pilates style of exercises. I love dancing so it correlates to one another.
Jill: Thanks for the support. Hmmm...that sounds interesting about yogurt pre-workout, but all I know is that I will be changing it anyways because for me it's not enough when I get back from work.

I really need some meal suggestions because I'm a bit bored with eating the same meals day in and day out. Any suggestions are welcome.
Oh - This I can help you with!! I have LOTS of meals and recipes!! What do you like? What calorie/macro ratio would you like? Any particular foods you HATE??dianas05 said:I really need some meal suggestions because I'm a bit bored with eating the same meals day in and day out. Any suggestions are welcome.
Fiber 1 pancakes, IM ADDICTED!!!!!!!!! Check the recipe section.dianas05 said:I really need some meal suggestions because I'm a bit bored with eating the same meals day in and day out. Any suggestions are welcome.
Or ground chicken breast. Cook in a pan like ground beef, and add taco spice. Eat with salsa and brown rice all mixed together, OR the chix, salsa, lettuce and ff sour cream----->TACO salad! I eat ground chix almost every day.
I like just about any clean food. I'm not sure which macro ratio to do, so I can't answer that. My calorie range daily is from 1,600 to 1,800. I'm looking for simplicity as well, just to let you know.
