Rest day. Finished painting my son's room yesterday. Today we'll buy bookcases and hopefully can stain it today as well. Love decorating so this is fun. Need to get groceries for our cookout tomorrow. The gym is open from 6-12am so I can get my usual Chest/Tri day in in the morning. Off to teach Sunday school today. Last one for the year. Can't wait.

Your gym was quiet today? My gym was packed...all sorts of people there that I don't recognize. I usually go in the early morning, but since the gym didn't open until 9 am today, there were all sorts of people there...the night people and the afternoon people I guess.

Have a great Memorial Day..and a wonderful cookout!

 

[Miss LeDix]

And are you trying to attach something?

 

[lina]

Hey Missy!
Thanx for visiting! Yes when I was leaving da gym around 9am, more people coming in as well. Boy was I glad they opened early at 6am today. Well I was trying to play around attaching an image but I didn't have time to work on it. Will try again!

Have a good Memorial Day too!

 

[lina]

[Miss LeDix]

My meals where all mini-meals today. Seem to work better than 5 big meals. Made me feel hungry faster and feel like my metabolism was more revved up. Although I didn't plan it, just ate with the flow, all clean, my macros worked out pretty good. Good day today. BBQ was fun, no booz for me though. No dessert. Nada. Lots of seltzer and 1 diet coke.

I must say...yours is nicer! You go girl!

LOL, panty supplier! Too funny!

You always sound so upbeat and fun! Great attitude girlie!

[butterfly]

Your meals look yummy! How do you find the time to cook so much???

 

[lina]

5 sex-full days!!! Wow your siggie is the inverse of Sosunni's!!

I sometimes cook everything in batches the night before. Otherwise I just nuke the hell outa food. Pretty tasteless cr*p that is not inducive to overeating , but I embelish with legal sauces like salsa, hot sauce, curry, etc.

How are today?

 

[tgkfour1]

Lina,
I appreciate the feedback in my post earlier today-

Killer workouts- would be good for anyone at this site.

I like the 5 day split you've got going for summer sizzle.

I can hear you cracklin & poppin from here. Don't kick your own ass too hard when you ain't measuring up. Just work harder next time & make it a good habit.

BTW Nice back "V" & delts in your pic.

TGK

 

[lina]

Hey TGK,

Thanx for dropping a line, the compliments and encouraging words!

Looking forward to knowing you better and learning from each other!!

 

[Stacey]

HEY LINA!
Thanks for the compliments honey!!
Your right about the tasteless crap we eat...I add salsa too for a little help!!

Have a good one!

 

[nikegurl]

Hi Lina - Your journal is AWESOME! It's so organized and complete! Thanks for the motivation.

 

[lina]

Hey Nikegurl!!!

Thanks for the compliments! Very sweet of you! I'm glad I'm motivating you!! Feel honored!!!

How are things with you?

 

[nikegurl]

going really well. just started my first tweak today. (no more carb ups and i get about 50 grams carbs a day now instead)

a good time for me to follow your example and log everything!

 

[lina]

Oh, so how long are you going do this for? Is this the final carbdown ?

I think that is what the folks at Beverly will have in store for me when I send in my stats and pics. They'll probably tweak the food and lower carbs. Usually for the last 4 weeks.
