Actually, that seems to be the way my body works. Most, if not all but 1 pound was water, I am certain. I have almost always doe it this way and not lost much at all. I will eat enough this weekend to bump me back up then the rest of the week will even it back out. It may not be the best thing for me but it seems to keep me happy.
Now before the Arnold Classic I will hopefully get down to 9%bf. I plan on going off my diet again for two weeks right around Christmas. I am just tryin gto figure out what works the best for me!

I figured most of it was water this week since just starting a "strict" diet. So next week you will probably lose how much? Just your experienced guess .

1 to 1.5 pounds. But I will stop there. Right now I am down to 124 and that is how much i weighed in the pic with the veins running through my abs. I don not want to compromise muscle either. I am trying to build my legs....My pecs are already fuller as is my back. I seem to grow pretty fast when I eat right and train hard. I will let you know how much I lose next week.

 

[Velvet]

Good afternoon Jeanie!!

Damn straight! BTW, I ate over 3900 calories yesterday I might do it agqain today I used to do it three days a week.
Actually, i did that on purpose. In my lean pics I had taken I had close to the same diet but less strict during the week and more sugar free stuff on the weekends. I went back to the "natural" stuff cause the sugar alcohols have way too much of a laxative effect when you eat too much. It's really not easy to be romantic with all of that going on
I have also been buy. I feel like I have been neglecting everyone here. I did find time to do some posting in a thread where one of the member was really pissing me off, though

Hey Jeanie!!!

All that chocolate sounds yummy....I had wayyyyy to much on Friday-there are like 500 mini choc bars at my work. I ate so many I ACTUALLY got sick Im with you on the sugar alcohols. I had 4 sf lifesavers yesterday and was sick as hell. I prefer the 'real' stuff

Oh-I am sort of cutting.(you asked in my journal ) Trying to lose some fat, and put on a bit more muscle at the same time.

Have a great day!

[Emma-Leigh]

Hey Jeanie!

Shhhh... Don't tell - I am sneaking onto the internet at work!!

I had the best leg workout today!

That looked like a killer of a workout!! But how the hell do you cope with those boring adductor/abductor/butt blaster thingies?? I hate those stupid 'girlie' machines!

I had a arse-whooping, sweating-blood, feel like barfing workout this morning too!! God I love it!! Nothing can compare to that feeling - best thing in the world!

I have decided that I am going to have 2 cheat days since I don't need to cut unitl it is closer to January (for the Arnold Classic). I am just mentally not ready to kill myself for nothing. However, I will keep my weight under control until then.

Sounds like a good plan. No use in killing youself with diet for any longer than absolutely neccessary.

Besides - this way I can also get the pleasure of eating vicariously through you!

Anyway, I hope you have a great day!

 

[Jeanie]

Sunday's diet was a ditto . I am back up to 130 It will be back down by Friday. I just am not feeling the pressure to kill myself right now to be ripped, hard and super lean. I mean, for what? But I will kick myself in the butt 12 weeks out form the competition deadline.
