Vai Fan's Log 'O Fun

I'm also gonna bag up some portions of protein powder and get some flax caps.

Took my suggestion I see. :D

But of course! Just got back from the store as a matter of fact!

Many thanks.
 
Vai,
Glad to see things are going well with GP's routine. I was just wondering why the flaxseed caps? Don't you have to consume around 14 caps to equal a tbls?
Anyway, just a thought!

Hey bud, thanks for checking in. Yeah, things are going really well with this routine MONGO has set up (he's heartless, just to let you all know)

What the deal is with the caps is that I've got a shitload of training and classes over the next six months that is required by my National Guard unit. So, I'm gonna be gone from home up to three weeks at a time until it's over, and need to do my best to keep the nutrition on track. So what I'm doing now is arming myself with things that are easy to eat/consume, no matter where I am. My packing list is protein bars, protein powder (portioned in baggies for ease) and bottles of flax caps.

It is SO easy to fall back into eating 3 squares a day and having my protein/fat intake fall into the shitter, but I wanna do whatever I can to keep the progress I've made so far. I'm also going to be without a gym for the most part, so I'll be limited to doing body weight exercises while I'm away.
 
Well you gotta do what you gotta do?

I understand! that's got to be pretty tough.
I am sure the wife appreciates you being away so much. I know mine wouldn't be too impressed, good thing I haven't told her alot about things coming up in the new year!
 
Yes sir. It would be too easy to just feast from the vending machines.

Well, the wife tolerates my patriotism, but doesn't always like it. She's a good woman, for sure.

Uh oh, what've you got in the hopper, pal?
 
Well, I work for a playground manufacturing company, and we just currently released a new series of products for skateboarders(damn hot trend).
So we have a major install in Las Vegas at the beginning of the New Year, Tradeshow in San Diego, Sales Rep meeting in Branson, Mo. That is just the start, I am sure once the spring hits around here I will be travelling alot around Ontario and Quebec.
I guess this is what you get when this is your little baby.
Not that I can complain. Las Vegas in January, San Diego the Weekend of the Super Bowl. Oh well! I have such a tough life, I know!
 
Hey that sounds pretty cool to me. Yes, I see 'em all over the place, damn skateboarders! Young whippersnappers.

Yep, we'll be expecting some beautiful stories upon your return. Take advantage of it too, bro, lots of people spend most of there life in the same place doing the same things. See as much as you can. Do as much as you can live with AND get away with!!

Why, thank you Perfecto! No real progress stats to report as of yet. Biggest accomplishment is that I've dropped 7 pounds. I haven't taken measurements yet, but know that I need to.

Thanks for checkin' in.

Vai - definately good taste in music! Although the Dixie Chicks??? Not much inspiration there unless you were looking at them! LOL! J/K! How long did it take you to loose the 7 lbs? That's great! Keep up the good work and you'll hit your goal in no time!
 
Hey Lean, yeah, those damn Dixie Chicks! Should I say, 'my damn wife!!'.

Okay, okay, I'll confess; being a musician, there are MANY styles of music that I can truly enjoy, but that is ALWAYS dependent on whether there is some kick ass guitar on it. I have no idea what most songs are about; I mainly listen to the music.

Any way, the Chickies have this one song 'Sin Wagon' that totally rocks out at one part. Oh yeah, and they are definitely smokin' hot babes.

The 7 pounds is over 3 1/2 weeks, and I'm really happy with those results so far.
 
Nice results! How much you want to loose overall? Have you been taking measurements? I think that's what counts, not just the W8. Increased muscle mass and loss of fat. Something like that. Ask W8 or DP or GP, they'll know. :thumb:
 
No, like a dumbass I haven't taken measurements yet, but I've got a note to do it sometime today.
It'd be nice to get down to around 200-205 from the 225 I started at, but we'll see how it goes. I don't wanna look like a bag-o-bones!!

I thought that when we started together you were at 229. Anyway, my goal weight for you is around 200 with both good size and nice cuts. Everything past that is just icing on the cake! Did I say cake?! You are not allowed to eat cake!

Damn you, GP! Why do you have to be so damn mean while helping me achieve my goals? Oh wait, never mind.

Thanks buddy! Who needs any freakin' cake...I got cottage cheese and protein powder and chicken and spinach!!! Yippee!
 
Hey Vai! Just thought I'd stop by to see how things were going.

Having trouble with the workout tunes? Now I like the Dixie Chicks but I'd have to agree that it isn't the best workout music.

I prefer NIN, Crystal Meth, Creed...

Butterfly, you little animal, you!! Nice choice in tunes! NIN!! Wow, I remember seeing them back in the late 80's in DC before they were nationally known.

Nice hearing from you. Things all settled in the 'new' house? I'd like to see some full blown pictures of your gym some time, too.
 
Do you mean the gym in my house or the gym we go to?

Finally got all the xmas decorations up... now we just gotta hide the containers somewhere.
 
Your home, of course. I saw some pix with the kitty in it. Wasn't sure if there was more to come.

Yuck! Get this, my crazy ass wife has a total of 14 Christmas trees up, no shit! The smallest is 2 feet, but we've got 7 that are over 6 feet tall...silly ass biatch!
 
14 Christmas trees?!?!?!?

Now that I'd like to see a pic of!!!
 
There's an idea! I'll try to do that over the weekend and then post them in the open chator member pics forum! How festive.

Awesome taste in music B'Fly!!! Especially Creed!!
 
Pretty geeked today. I began week number 5 under Mr. Gopro's tutalage.

I've dropped almost 10 pounds in 4 weeks, I'm regaining the firmness in my muscles again, I'm starting to see a little bit of vascularity (very little, but still exciting) and I'm increasing my weights during my workouts consistantly. Well, either the weight or # of reps.

Gopro is really kicking my ass in a good way, thanks a whole bunch buddy. Next year perhaps the wife will put up a 15th tree in your honor!

Well Vai, you have been a fantastic student. I couldn't ask for more. You are willing to learn, willing to listen, and willing to trust me fully. The results speak for themselves and this is only the tip of the iceberg for you!

And as much credit as you give me...YOU ARE THE ONE DOING THE HARD WORK AND YOU SHOULD BE COMMENDED! Keep it up my man and your goals shall be reached!
 
Way to go Vai!!!
