What the hell has happened to Fitgirl?

[Fitgirl70]

Ok.....8 weeks, it's the Heart of Texas, the one I was going to do....

8 inches huh???? MMMM.......


August 9th
Ok -- I actually got off my fat azz and went to the gym this morning! I'm pretty proud of myself. Only did 30 minutes on the treadmill w/ some lunges and some abs, but at least it was that.
I'm also having a Myoplex Carb Sense RTD this morning. I'm about to go get some coffee and have some eggs too (probably in about an hour). I am really going to try to do this and going to work at eating right and get back into my workouts.

Thanks for everyone's support. You all are such great friends. It doesn't matter what our problems or set backs are, you're all here and pushing for us to get back on the horse and get back to what we know best -- health and fitness!

M2: 2 cups of coffee, 2 eggs, 2 slices turkey bacon.
M3: Chipotle (black beans, chicken, lettuce, salsa) 1/2 diet dr. pepper, more water.
M4: (3:30pm) mini Detour bar and more water.
M5:

You know the Sherman is in Nov. If you don't make the one in Oct. you can shoot for that one. Gives you a lil more time.

 

[Fitgirl70]

Really?? Mmmmm....that does give me more time. Do you know when and where?

 

[Fitgirl70]

Not sure what I want for lunch. What would be better, Chipotle of: black beans, chicken, lettuce and salsa OR..... chicken caesar salad???

I need help and it's probably going to be one or the other since I have to go out to the bank at lunchtime.

 

[atherjen]

black beans, chicken, lettuce and salsa

go with that!

Tam, am I reading right, you may consider doing a show this fall??

hope your having a great day!

 

[Fitgirl70]

Yes Jen, you got it.....I was actually on track to do the Heart of Texas in October with my old trainer, Victor. Then Victor got called up for active duty and then started the domino effect at the gym and with other trainers........Gold's still owes me $1200 by the way.

Anywho....if I train really hard and get really strict with my diet, I think I can do it. We'll see what happens.

Oh, I went with that lunch -- It was so good

 

[JLB001]

Tamtam...its here in Houston. Nov. 13th. week before Nationals.....8 days after my hatch date! I'm thinking about doing it...would mean no cake on my hatch date!

 

[JLB001]

Chipotle....Craig has me addicted. I usually just get a tad amount of rice (like 1/4 cor less)with chicken, veggies and salsa.

Yummy stuff!

 

[Fitgirl70]

yeah, it really is good. I only get the bowl with no rice and extra veggies. Gotta lay low on those beans, you know they put oils in them when they cook them?

Hope you're having a spectacular day doll.....talk to you later. I think I'm about to go home....

 

[Stacey]

Hey Tam! Glad your back at it again honey!! I'm proud of you! Yum--all this Chipolte Talk. I drove past it at lunch today, but didn't have time to stop in.

Good Luck honey--You can do it. If I wasn't trying to get preggo I would go for the Nov. 13th show with you. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm???? I may just pretend like I am--then 6 weeks out make it stricter for me? Hmm? What to do, what to do.?!

Love ya girlie!~ Smile and have a great Tuesday!!!

Tuesday, August 10

I don't know about doing a show right now. I think I will forego the Heart of Texas and maybe do the show in Nov......just depends on what happens on the baby front with me too Stace. We are skipping the IUI this month -- financial reasons -- but will probably do it again next month and in November. I just want to get back to some normalcy in my life right now and get back to feeling good with my diet and workouts.

This morning was 25 minutes on cardio and upper body. I'd like to get back to a normal workout -- maybe tomorrow. I think I will start with Back!

Breakfast: 2 eggs, 2 slices turkey bacon, 2 cups coffee.
Lunch: chicken and steak w/ brown rice (a la Benihana -- only homemade)...yuumm!!
M3: Myoplex Strawberry Cream Carb Sense shake (25g protein, 5g carbs, 150 cals, 3.5g total fat

Hope everyone is having a great day!

 

[Fitgirl70]

I think the diet is looking a little better.

Now, I need to get rid of the turkey bacon and add some oatties I think.

 

[RoCk79]

Hmmm..turkey bacon is good....

How you doing FG?

 

[naturaltan]

 

[JLB001]

Tam!! You can do this.

I believe in ya chickie!


Pssttt......what color suit??? I'm shopping for more material this weekend.

 

[Fitgirl70]

I know I can do it. I have confidence in myself. Isn't it funny how you get something like "confidence" so quickly and out of the blue?"
Speaking of Blue......don't you think that would be a good color for me, Jodie? I like almost like an aqua color. Let me know how much to send you.

I was just telling myself this morning -- "I know I can do it, I know exactly what to do."

So........
Wednesday, August 11
No workout this morning, I don't want to burn myself out too quickly. I'd rather ease into it. Gonna go in the morning though and I plan to go Friday and Saturday. If my plans come to fruition, that will be 5 days this week.....good enough to start!

M1: Strawberry Banana Yogurt (I was gonna eat eggs, but ended up only having yogurt) and a Grande NonFat Caramel Macchiato.
M2: Salad from SouperSalad and water to drink. More water when I got back to work --- man, I wish it would just rain -- it is HOT outside
M3not a meal, I know) banana and a Diet Pepsi
M4:

 

[JLB001]

Your not gonna send me NOTHING! I need the practice on making them, so I couldn't take anything.

I'm getting more material this weekend. I'll take a digital of it when I get it. Aqua...a lighter blue?

 

[Fitgirl70]

Yeah, light blue.....I think that would be a good color....

And yes, I am gonna send you something. I have your address, I'll just send you a check....nana--nana-boo-boo

August 12

I am doing great I think! I got up this morning and was going to do a class at the gym, but got there a little after it started and it was full, there was no room for me, so I just did 20 minutes of cardio and did a back workout, a light one....then did a a little bit of triceps.

M1 - Post workout - shake w/ yogurt, skim milk, protein, strawberries and banana.
M2: veggie burger and a small salad w/ vinegar and a tad of oil, water to drink.
M3: I will have a Strawberry Cream Myoplex Carb Sense shake.
M4:

I will update more foods as I eat. I actually am about to go to our little cafe and get some oatmeal I think.
Hope everyone is good today......it's almost Friday

 

[naturaltan]

[greekblondechic]

[atherjen]

I was just telling myself this morning -- "I know I can do it, I know exactly what to do."

I totally think so too!

Have a great day Tam!

btw, aqua is very pretty!

 

[Fitgirl70]

Thanks Jen, I like Aqua.

I hope you have a great day too....

 

[JLB001]

Yeah, light blue.....I think that would be a good color....

And yes, I am gonna send you something. I have your address, I'll just send you a check....nana--nana-boo-boo

I won't cash it, plus I will tear it into tiny pieces and mail it back to you.

 

[JLB001]

[Fitgirl70]

[Fitgirl70]

Someone decided to put Smarties on their desk.......I had to have a couple, but now I'm done and I'm about to go grab my shake

 

[JLB001]

It's up to you. Both suits the same color or diffferent?

 

[Fitgirl70]

August 13

Hey everyone -- sorry it's Friday the 13th, but just think TGIF!!!

Had coffee this morning, no workout yet, going to go this afternoon.
About to go downstairs and see what food I can find to eat. Today is someone in our marketing department's last day and everyone brought food.
I will post what I end up having.

I ended up having 1/2 of a cupcake, 2 chips w/ spinach dip on it, 2 chips w/ 6 layer bean dip on and two red-pepper coated crackers. Not too bad, couldn't have eaten any of it, but that would be rude.
M2: Chipotle.....bowl, black beans, steak, lettuce and a little bit of cheese, water to drink.
I think I am going to go walking at about 3 or so this afternoon. I'm so lucky we get to do that here. We can just take off for about 30 minutes during the day and go for a walk outside if we want.
