As much as I love going to the gym and want to see the pros, watching for hours on end all weekend while in Vegas just doesn't work for me. So we plan on maybe seeing a couple of prejugding shows. The rest of the time will be enjoying Vegas while on the Jodi thrill seeking tour.

Can we go on the New York, NY roller coaster and bungie jump off the Stratosphere?

 

[naturaltan]

You can bungee jump off the Stratosphere? If so, you can bet Jodi, NikeGurl and I will be in. And I believe we're doing the coaster ... are ya with us?

 

[naturaltan]

Do you have the link or recipe for strawberry cream filled crepes? Those sound really good.

 

[Julie7Ulie]

I'll check with the bf/husband/other half, but I can almost guarantee we're there!

Since when can you bungee jump off the stratosphere? I've done the rollercoaster and the Big Shot but I never saw bungee jumping.

No I haven't. Thats like really close by to where I work though. Maybe I'll go try it out. I've been to Tewksbury, Methuen, Derry, Manchester, Merrimack and Nashua.

 

[Julie7Ulie]

Where can I find Coconut Oil?

Bread & Circus and Wild Oats are ALWAYS sold out. I didnt realize it was such a hot commodity

 

[Jodi]

Which Wild Oats do you go to cuz the one here in N. Reading has it all the time. Thats where I get mine. Or the A Market in Manchester but thats too far away for you.

 

[Julie7Ulie]

I tried the one in N. Reading / Andover

I have no such luck.

I'll try again today.

 

[Jodi]

I was just there yesterday and they had it. I buy the Spectrum brand in the clear glass jar

 

[Julie7Ulie]

Cool, Thanks. Thats on top of my to-do list.

There is a steak house here (two in fact!) that serve the best baked sweet potato's you can find! They are great with a steak!!!

 

[Jodi]

Lucky!! The only thing I've ever been able to find was Sweet Potato Fries. Ohhh, how I love those except well, there fried.

Im officially stupid. How could I forget baked sweet potatoes?

Can you believe Ive been boiling them and mashing/cubing them the whole time?

[Jodi]

1/2 C. Oats (that I forgot earlier )

You would have been better off skipping the oat. Don't try and make up for them in your last meal of the day. If you wanted to add it to an earlier meal fine but I wouldn't have had it in the last meal. Only time I do that is when I'm carbing up

 

[Julie7Ulie]

I thought so. I felt GROSS after eating all those carbs so late.

6/5

Pilates

 

[Julie7Ulie]

Body Fat as of 6/5

The guy at the gym did this really fast, but even if its a couple digits off, its still depressing.

I also wonder what my body fat was before I got to IM.

Age - 24
Height - 63"
Weight - 145
BMI - 25.7

Body Comp (3 Site skinfolds) - 24.7% fat
(Sum of skinfolds = 67)

Lean Body mass is supposed to be 110.
I have 35 pounds of fat. Thats a crapload of fat stuck on me .. help me get it off me.

So how fast does all this muscle that I have burn the fat?

 

[Jodi]

Every pound of muscle burn up to 50 extra cals per day. Build more muscle, burn more fat

Did he happen to give you the actual skinfold numbers? And how fast are we talking? Did he measure eat site twice their suppose to? I would like to see the numbers. Those are what you should use to monitor, not the overall number. Most don't know how to figure the % right anyway.
