Re the log, Been there girl, why CK doesnt get here paper anymore, BUT I pop in every now and then to let ya'll know Im alive...

Now YOU, thanks for checkin in, I know youre super slammed and appreciate the time you take to update this... if everyone only knew everything you have been doing.... seriously yo...

 

[HiDnGoD]

I Have been super busy. obviously in the midst of switching careers, opening up a business, writing up client plans, trying to keep house straight, bills paid, and of course dieting down for competitions.
I never seem to diet down with ease.. always have to go for the most stressful things. Last year it was my mother on her death bed, working 2 jobs, and going to school and now all of this. It does keep my mind off of food and so not worried about me. I started this diet down with the intent of helping other's and I am still doing that. Actually more so now. I'm working one on one with quite a few people helping them achieve their goals whatever they may be. One lady I have helped drop 90 pounds and we have another 100 to go. I have 2 figure competitor's, and 3 beginner's to working out. Not counting massage clients. That's all I'm taking on until my schedule is finalized.
I have been having issues getting onto Elite from work and if I can get on I go to post (hopefully this will post) before I get the warning that this site has provocative attire, blah blah blah kicked off. Next few weeks my log is going to be hit and miss. Once I can 'kinda' settle things down I can log more.. hopefully from Home
I'm also slammed hard here at work lately as to another reason I haven't had time to work my way around little 'glitches' of getting on EF. Trying not to let my boss know I'm working another job, opening a business, and waiting for official word from physical therapy clinic as to when they would like me to start. So I'm just trying to get through each day and not focusing so much on the stress's. Though I think my dreams becoming more vivid are mirrors of what's going on in my life.

On the picture, measures, etc. front I have not had time. I know I have dropped body fat although my scale weight has not moved much. I was 156 this morning. I started out roughly 165 almost 8 weeks ago. So I have only lost 9 pounds, but my measure has been my clothes and they are falling off. For instance my jeans I have on I could barely get on, today I should have a belt on as they are sitting low on the saddle and I keep having to pull them up.
I'm really not so focused on the number game this year. I'm enjoying what's happening in my life and really not concerned with it. My diet is manageable I'm not hungry, my weights at the gym are still the same. Only things I notice more is stiffness which I have been ma rolling when I can get time between clients and stretching out really well.

As of this morning I'm just drinking some blueberry coffee enjoying my last minute here typing before the race begins again today.

I will get to my regular scheduled program here as soon as I can. In the meantime... Like Bunny said... you all can post up as well. The site has only slowed because there are to many lurkers and not enough loggers. EF doesn't pay my day job I do this not only for me but for all of you. Lately more so for you as I really have grown past the fine art of logging but still want to help other's. If you miss somebody not posting... post in their log like Hidin did in mine that you miss reading it. Maybe a few have logged for so long it seems monotonous to keep going when it seems like nobody is following. Sometimes the logger needs to know their log is making a difference. It's nice to get karma messages but why not put nice things in the person's log for all to read as well. Maybe some newb will pop in and see it and say,"Well this must be a good place to start this log is helping other's." It's a circle of life my friend's.
O.k. back to work...
I'll be logging more soon enough

I truly admire you, for having the courage to make the changes you are in career, while still helping others. And your advice & encouragement here has been very helpful to many.

Today BUSY
LOL go figure

I'm sore, sore, sore, and uhmm did I say sore?!??!
Legs are toasted from monday.
The leg day is like:
Leg press supersetted with walking lunges up and down an incline
Romanian DL's
SLDL's on smith
Weighted step up's
Seated calf raises super setted with donkey raises

Also I will admit it..... I have tried spinning again twice.. and although I'm not 'nutzzzz' about it... My butt actually did not hurt. So thinking it was a difference in bike and seats as to why first time I tried it killed the bootay and stuff for 3 days. Sooo felt like I got off from riding a bumpy horse for a week straight.
Soo been hitting up some spinning and step classes for a fun switch up.

Tonight is no weights just training client's.

Have no pictures I will soon. Body fat soon as well.
I can tell bf has to be dropping! Hunger is through the roof this week so far.
So adding in some cardio breeze now. Also added in the yohimburn lotion this week now that my BF is lower. In comparison to last diet down from here forward was when body fat started dropping faster. We will see... I'm thinking so since hunger is up and period has left the building already. Crazy mine goes away at around 20% or so.
I think my body likes to maintain about a 19-21% body fat for some reason.
Who knows. Anyway...
Off to a meeting wanted to drop in.

Thanks Hidnin and CK and BUNZZZ You are the bestest!!!

LOL go figure Im sure that is an understatement

I'm sore, sore, sore, and uhmm did I say sore?!??!

Leg press supersetted with walking lunges up and down an incline
Romanian DL's
SLDL's on smith
Weighted step up's
Seated calf raises super setted with donkey raises I think that would do it yes... do you see any issues with subbing Gm's for sldl if one, say, could not hold onto heavy weight and left it HANG, or PULL it?

Also I will admit it..... I have tried spinning again twice.. and although I'm not 'nutzzzz' about it... My butt actually did not hurt.

Soo been hitting up some spinning and step classes for a fun switch up. Do they have the cushions available? No cushion a week walking funny & BRUISES... a cushion 3 days LOL it's bee awhile since I spun, spinned, etc whatev.. lol yaya for fun switch ups, I still need to take the am spin class... debating it for months now at the new place

Tonight is no weights just training client's. so how many are you working with these days? I got 4 offers to train people.. Im thinking I should just get an easy cert. to do it 'legally' etc but I already have all the NASM and ace stuff for MONTHS now.... argh

Have no pictures I will soon. Body fat soon as well.

Well I'm not T but I think you could definately do the good mornings if you couldn't hold onto heavy weight, and we do actually have them in the plan they just fall on a different day ANd the spin bikes have come a LONG way since the ones even when I started the class a year ago and the seats aren't too bad nowadays... You could always come here and take a class or two... I know a DANGGGGGGGG good instructor

Thanks girl! I just never had bruises like that before it was hilarious I would totally come there and take you up on that offer ... if I can get days off work and NOT travel on days surrounding any big school events/tests ... learned my lesson on THAT one...
