[Sapphire]

Hi Dave!!

Just saying HI!!! WoW! Your trainer is incredibly built!!! Those are some biceps!!!!
Keep up the good work Hun!!!

 

[david]

Just a quick note:

Day went well and I'm tired. I yawned while working out!

Anyway, I'm off to a fund raiser (music-oriented)

See you all later and we'll respond to the three posts I see above!

 

[david]

Back from the fund raiser concert! Sooooooo tired!

I wondered how I'd look up onstage with them and guess what!? I did! But it was more of an after jam session!

They all went out for Mexican food and beer. Guess where I am? HOME! Did not go!

Looks like I will be callaborating with them after all for studio work but not on the band's material. Other musical stuff. Should be VERY exciting!!!

Here are some pictures in the meantime.

Hi NG!!!

Thanks for those awesome pictures! When you have time, keep sending more! I love this one! I sent it to her telling her how cute her smile is and adorable she is! NOW she'll probably KICK my ASS and make me work out harder!


I was sent to our other facility to work in West Palm Beach and I have a traveling pass with Gold's. I saw her business card and also, saw her train others. Well, I needed motivation, inspiration and a no nonsense trainer and she fit the bill perfectly! I have no regrets to this point since training with her. It's funny you mention that because I train late and is her last client as well! Normally she wouldn't train anyone that late or on a Saturday afternoon! She made an exception because I'm doing really well and she likes my hard work and effort! I consider myself VERY FORTUNATE to have her and when I need her, regardless, anytime for anything! I love her! She's awesome!!!

Hi Sapph!

Sorry I haven't spoken to you in awhile but as you know, my schedule is nutty and will be until after Thanksgiving! But I promise, I'll be more personal and send you a regular email soon!

I am soooooooooooooo tired and must retire right now!

G' night or at least when you read this... Good Morning (early) to you!

 

[nikegurl]

good job passing on the beer and mexican food last night!

you're really on a roll. it's good to "see" you feeling good and training hard!

Hi!

It's not really hard for me to pass up Mexican Food. I don't really like it. However, the beer is good but I passed that up quite easily as well!

I haven't done my stats this week so I hope it will be a pleasant surprise when I get back from Orlando!!!

 

[david]

New friend! But not mine!

 

[david]

10 pm and I'm about 2 hours from traveling to Orlando!

Searching for sleep.................

 

[david]

In Orlando..............

Work out at Gold's in Tuskawilla (I think that's what they call it)

Went to Bob's Nutrition and picked up some supplements! Nice owner! Very kind!

Work out was tiring and I'm tired. (Probably from driving! ) Oh well, I'm not staying in Orlando and leaving tomorrow morning!

My Business that I conducted is DONE!

Who knows, maybe I'll stay one more day or so. All up in the air!

 

[david]

Side notes:

Nutrition- No complex carbs in the morning and really at all! It's killing me and no, this was NOT upon recommendations from my trainer. I have been unable to eat oatmeal, potatoes, yams or rice for that matter. My FAULT!

Talk about dizzy, lightheaded and fatigue!

ALL MY FAULT!

 

[david]

OK, another side note. Declined an invitation to a sappy restaurant due to it's high fatty content and skipped out on the beer as well.

Another note! I spoke to Lorraine Rosa over the phone! What a sweet voice she has! Maybe I'll catch her tomorrow at Gold's in Orlando!


Last note. I have to be in Hollywood, FL by 8pm tomorrow night! God Damn, does the road ever end for me??

 

[david]

Getting ready for the gym! Lots of energy today for some reason? Oh well, I'm gonna run with it!

Ooohh shit! I can go see Freeman today! Since the bastard didn't call me last night! J/K freeman! I wasn't going out last night anyways. I felt very light headed! BTW, your mall there in in Orlando, "Mall of the Millenia" kicks some serious ass!!! Too bad the PARKING SUCKS!!!

 

[david]

OK, just got in!

* 2 hours until I get the gym
* 5 hours until the show!
* Then, lots of sleep (until 8:30pm at least)

Notes: Met Freeman today at Bob's nutrition!

 

[david]

2 am............... not too bad!

Time to sleep now!

No notes at this time except tomorrow is Cheat Meal day! Excellent!

 

[david]

OK, so now that the road is temporarily over for me.... I can relax and concentrate more on the things that are around here!

Wait, I was doing some research and found that I could've have flown SW airlines for $100 rountrip./Rent-a-Car= $62

Let's see if driving was worth it or not.
* Tank Filled- $15 x 3= $45
* My time driving and not getting sinus infections from stinkin' orange trees in Indian River & Okeechobee county= $10/hr.x6- $60
* Tolls- $21.00
* Leased Car- $.10/per mile. Mileage total. 440 miles I think= $44
* Food on the road- Stopped 4 times at Grill places. Average meals= $8 so $8 x 6= $48

I guess I could technically stop right there because I've already determined what is better.

Flt + Car rental= $180 (I'm including dumb taxes)
Driving, Food etc.= $218


Next time (next month) I FLY

Now, I'm a little upset that I didn't fly!
Oh well, live and learn!

 

[david]

Off to my favorite little place! The gym!

Note: My calves are burning from the other day!!! Ouch!

 

[shortstuff]

Hello mister Geek

 

[david]

Mr. Geek?? That wasn't very nice!

"Mr. tired" or "Mr. Doesn't know when to stop and listen to his body" would be the proper name now!

Hey shorty! Thanks for stopping in. Sorry about the phone conversation we had the other night. I was so out of it! I am down now close to 40 lbs with Debi as my trainer. Freaking awesome but my mindframe is somewhat altered and I had two scares last week. My vision was blurred for 10 mins and I was getting light-headed after my second meals but I've made some adjustments to the diet. I called Debi like it was a 911 call!!!

Much better now and must get some rest. I think it's the music project that's boggling me! I have two practices/sessions next week (Wed. & Fri) that I'm not even going to train with Debi until Saturday!

OK, enough jibber-jabber.......... must go to the gym and when I come back, I'll check out your journal as well to get caught up! A matter of fact, I'll check out a few others!

PIZZA!! What is that all about??? I thought turkey and egg whites were your new cheat meal!! Does your coach know about this?


I haven't had a piece of pizza in probably over a year now.. except for the very small piece I ate with you.

Yes, it's funny you say that but I had discussed this with Debi and she asked me how much I had and I told her 3 slices. She asked me if I liked it and I told her, "naturally of course!" And, she further commented and said, "have as much as you like on that cheat meal...... (she stopped and thought) and then said, can you eat a whole large pizza"? I smiled and she cut it back to portions of 4 slices! LMAO!!! But, I've been really good because I only ate 3.

Now, turkey and egg whites as a cheat meal? Now, I'm confused!

 

[david]

Some notes:

Due to my fatigueness, dizzy & lightheaded feeling.

Two meals and one substitution has been added into my diet.

Mmmmnnn... more food! I'm starting to like this!
