cindy's journal

[jenscats5]

I get stared at too at the gym -- I'm one of the very few women that lift weights & the only one (so I've seen) that do SLDLs.

When I first started going -- the Prison Crew (my nickname for this group of guys) would stare at me cuz I think they didn't think I could lift heavy, but now I think they're used to it.....

Don't worry about the amount/pounds you lift -- concentrate now on form, the increases will come....

i will prob. be around 1400-1600 cals by the end of today.

I think thats too many, plus its an off day.

Oh well.

Maybe i should go do chest today instead of tomorrow.


m1 - oats w/ 1 scoop PP

m2 - peantus

m3 - salad w/tuna

m4 - protein bar, i know iknow, WHY? WHY DID I EAT THAT?

m5 - chicken w/ broccoli and sweet potato.

or a pow shake

I dont understand why im doing so lukewarm on my diet?

im always like this, if i know that im going to go out drinking on the weekend my diet is super tight during the week to make up for calories, but if i know im not, i have little cheats here and there.

I never really get anywhere this way. Oh well. I dont want my journal to be depressing.

Its been cloudy and rainy for 3 days straight now and its starting to get to me. sigh.

keep the range 10-12 times your body weight... You're 140, that is fine

yesterday i did end up going to the gym, chest.
I prolly did too many things but oh well, i dunno what else to do, i almost did not go
today calves/abs
sat - shoulders
sun/off

morning cardio 20 min + 10 hiit, i really really think that is pretty hard, i cant wait till can do more, cuz right now im wheezing just plain suck

next week im gonna cut out condiments too, because i dont count those calories, and i really just need to cut em out anyways. i prolly use too much of that sugar free bbq sauce, and salsa, etc. I dont know why im tryin to hide the tast of my veggies neway. they tast good. so yeah.

Takes a while to get the habit of a particular way of eating started so it is just natural to you. But also don't cut out so much (unless you are in final contest preparation) of the stuff that makes your diet enjoyable. Just things in moderation. It also takes a while to figure out some alternatives to the "really bad stuff" that work for you.

You should spend some time looking at the recipe thread on the top of this board & the Diet board for some stuff that sounds good. I also really like the South Beach Diet book -- it has great recipes that fit well within the type of diet you are following.

And always keep your eye on where you are heading & not where you've been. We're a week into spring and summer is around the corner ....!

You're doing great!

Yesterday i did not make it to the gym, im building a new home, and sometimes that gets in the way off stuff......
but diet was good.
m1 = w/2c. oats + egg sub
m2 = 1 cup spinach + tuna + fruit
m3 = 1 hb egg + 1 egg white
m4 = tons of broccoli 8 oz. chicken, + 1 small sweet potato

so, today is like monday for me.
m1 = egg whites

cardio 20 min + 10 hiit. good times.

thats all i have so far today.

i lost 3 lbs last week. but thats normal. for me, i normally gain alot of water weight from drinking and then retaining water and then losing it again, its a cycle, but since i did not drink, im not retaining any water, so we will see again on sat what happens there. i am now 137.

i will for sure post pics and measurements after i take my pics on sat. i've been taking them each sat, but i really need to use up the rest of the film. okee doke. bye
