ATL weather --- 95 degrees & sunny as hell!

Back to the gym! 1 week to Chicago & gonna run a 1 week "peak week" approach just to drop some water & bloatiness so maybe I can pull of wearign some of my "go out clothes"

This will be somethign to the effect of:
- carb deplete starting today - Wed
- carb load Thurs - Fri --- light carb load - not crazy carb load
- water deplete Mon - Fri
- Also upping cardio, cutting back on training (mostly because my shoulders won't allow much) and cutting total cals down some.

Oh that's real simple. 2 ingredients:

1) 41 next month
2) no job for 4 months

Well done on passing the test and 95.5% - WTG. Cool idea too. Maybe if I quit being an accountant and became a bartender I'd actually lose the desire to drink

I enjoy relaxing w/ friends & a rum & Diet Coke, but I'm missing the sunset over the ocean view to really enjoy it. Otherwise I haven't had a desire to drink in several months. Cuts into my diet.... (Reality is that it takes me 2 days to recover...)

Hi Sassy
I am following your steps and sllepin in abit! LOL tody has been loke a honeymoon! Been in bed for all my mealsl, yes! with Beautiful BF at hand reach! Dang it!

You are living the life girl! I'd say I'm jealous but it makes me so happy to hear you being so happy - I'm not (If that made any sense...)

I actually made some hyuge strides toward getting myself organized to get my whole "move across the country" thing going. With the help of a good friend I got motivated & addressed a few outstanding items that need to be done to get my house "sale ready". Among them:

- fixed my garage door opener

- pulled down my xmas lights (from 2 yrs ago... ) AND the white duct tape holdign them to the frames of my front & back doors. Tomorrow I need to wash the dirt & junk off & touch up the paint where the tape tore off paint or left the sticky stuff on the wood.

- fixed my toilet

- working on a backed up sink as we speak

- wrote out a list of stuff to be done over the next week.

Conceivably I might be able to get the house almost 100% ready for market by the end of this week & work w/ my realtor to get the final stuff done next week. How exciting is that?! Then I can use the last week of June to scope out some work near the parents' condo, and actually move down there the middle of July.

Anyway -- for me these are huge items to have completed, and the rest is not all that bad - just needs to be done.

Now, about that job in CA.... (next on the list...)

Oh yea I did make it to the gym tonite and doing a simulated "peak week" to prep for the big trip to sit in the audience at the Jr. Nats!

Diet: -- same

Training: experimented w/ some ab work since my shouders are fukt. Otherwise:
- 35 min stepper - slow, sweaty, ass-burning setting

Re: Sassy: July 2006 - 41 & BB Bound

I have certain things I've just let go around my house the last few months - stuff would break and I simply didnt' have time to deal w/ it when I was working literally 100 hrs /week. THen I got laid off. I dont' do well when I dont' have a tight, stimulating, active schedule. But I've also been laid off for up to 6 months 4 x since 1999. It sucks the life out of you trying to get things taken care of. Its a very muckerfuthing slow process that makes it real easy to feel like no one else on the planet gives a shit and sometimes I even stopped. Sometimes I've relied on competition prep to keep my sanity. Sometimes I've had to stop competition prep because I just can't stay focused on anything. And all the time you are just sitting there burning thru your savings and getting older. Ask me again how easy it is to sleep in.

Anyway - enough of that -- I work in software product management & marketing. That's why I want to move to CA - tech heaven! Water! Mountains! Interesting people! NOT the Deep South! No Hurricanes! (ok so there's earthquakes..) I've done S. Florida. Not a tech area. Not into big cities. Spent 20 yrs living a 6 foot snow drift. No interest in living in the Mid West. AZ is too freekin' dry. TX -eh its an option but doenst' do much for me. What makes sense? CA! No guarantees, but I think the odds are in my favor & I just need a new adventure where I think the people will be more likely to be like me than here.

Anyway -- that's my plan.
