I hired GoPro to do my training, diet and supplementation. I'm hoping taking all the guess work and self-doubting out of the equation will help me here. We start on June 1. If I can't make it out of bed for the gym, well I guess I'll be going at night. No more skipping the gym!!

Go Rocco !!

Does Sapphire come with the program ? If so sign me up

Keep us posted, I have often thought of doing the same .

 

[Rocco32]

Alright ladies...tell you what. I'm finishing my tattoo this weekend so of course I plan on taking pictures. I'll take pics and post them this weekend. But you have to promise to at least pretend I'm not as hideous as I am

Please!!!! How many times did I tell you I wanted to use you as a Slip & Slide??

Saying your going to do something and actually doing it are two completely different things Tammy. Given my low self esteem right now the only thing that will make me feel better is if you come out here and have your way.

 

[b_reed23]

well...if it means boosting your self esteem...........

 

[Burner02]

Tam...you make house calls? Dang...all I got were inspriational CD's....

 

[Fitgirl70]

Nope, sorry -- I will make house calls if you're local, but other than that, you're going to have to wait until I come back to CO.

 

[Burner02]

Road trip!

Happy Hump Day!

Good lookin w/o BRother Rocco, keep at it!!! Hope all is well for you and yours my Friend!!!

Hey Rocco Sorry I've been MIA, but work and working out kinda eats up my sun, mon and tues. I was hoping your depression would be improving as your thyroid rebounded, but then I remembered it took me a long time to get over the depression and if I let things get too me too much I slip back into depression. I found the key is to stop dwelling on it and the things that get me depressed even to the point I go into complete avoidance of some things. Once I get back "up" then I can look at some of the isseues one at a time. Also completely focussing on something such as cutting or getting my weights up helps really helps.

As for pics...question is black or maroon bikini?

 

[Rocco32]

It would be a passion of humanity!!!

Thanks Angel, things are going well as expected! Thanks.

Thanks so much for this post Dev. I feel like somethings wrong with me as bad as I feel but everytime I try to change things....my attitude, habits, thoughts...whatever it helps for a few hours and then I feel lower than before.

And I keep being afraid I'm going to annoy or lose the friends I have here because of my being down but your post makes me feel much better right now. I think part of it is feeling completely alone and isolated with this, people don't really understand what it is I'm feeling or the depth of it. So this helped, Thanks!!

Oh, and definately black this week!!!

You are soo welcome.

I know it is so hard to describe depression. I would say I felt like I was falling into a black hole and just when I thought I had hit bottem another hole would open up and I would fall further. I also said I can completely understand why people with depression committ suicide. It is definietly an easy way out of the black hole. I got so bad my family would not leave me home alone for fear of what they would find if I was left alone for too long.

You are not alone . You have me and from my experience so far here, a lot of others here that will not leave you alone.

you have done 2 workouts this week so far, right? I have either a light blue bikini, or an orange/green tropical one, your choice!

Also, ladies...are we posting pics in the journals, or PMing them??

Hey Rocco, good job on getting some workouts in. Good choice hiring Gopro too. I know the man will get you results.

 

[Fitgirl70]

I was wondering the same thing B. It was my thought that we put our own pics in our own journals. This way, not only would the boys have something to look at, but we'll also have it there (easy reference point) to view later when we improve even more!

What do'ya think?

I vote for in our journals, but I will also toss out how about posting them in our galleries so it is even easier to look back at the progress.

 

[Fitgirl70]

Sounds good to me!

 

[Fitgirl70]

I think we need a Team Arch!

 

[Burner02]

Thanks Cow, I'm excited about it. I think I just think too much and end up spinning my wheels. I need someone to tell me what to do!
