Holy AB work girl! good to see you logging again!

Thanks, CK!! I even played on the Ab Swing after the ab workout, but I didn't count it because that machine is a joke.

It's so easy to fall off track on my diet and cardio without you all keeping me motivated.

I got a new mini kitchen scale from Amazon yesterday. It's friggin' awesome!! I was reading my old school scale WAY off.

I'm not feeling quite as butterballish as I was earlier this week. Thank goodness! I am still feeling a little plump, though.

6:15 - 10 pushups + 20 bicycle upon rising

6:30 - 4oz. Green Tea

6:50 - TM - 1 mi
I was planning on running 2 miles but my hamstrings are super tight from HIIT. I ended up speedwalking a mile, so that the long stride could loosen them up a bit. I ended up walking a mile in 13:07. That's almost as fast as I run it! Hammies are still tight but a little looser. I think I will do yoga instead of the treadmill on Wednesday a.m. next week. I need something to stretch me out since I don't do it on my own.

M1 - 7:45 - Protein bar (homemade), 1sc PP, 1multi

M2 - 11:30 - .5c FF cottage cheese, 150g Baby Carrots, 2T ANPB

M3 - 2:15 - 3oz. chkn, 2c baby spinach, 2T N.O. Lt. Caesar, diet coke

4:15 - peppermint
I caved. Why must the office keep a stocked kitchen of EVERY type of imaginable candy, snack, or munchy type food?

M4 - 5:30 - .5oz. cashews, 1sc. PP

Have a wonderful Hump Day everyone!

Can you provide a link to your new mini scale? I'm in the market for one. My dinky plastic one isn't cutting it anymore.

You're welcome! It's plastic, though.. it has more of a matte finish, unfortunately. I hope you like it as much as I do!

Depends. I do. Different nutrient requirements. On my non-weight days I just drop the carbs slightly that were specified around my weights to fuel me then. So then I would be slightly calorie and carb cycling (some days I fill those cals in with good fats if I'm hungry). You could even spread those carbs out more through the day if you wanted and keep your cals and macro's the same.

 

[Will2BLean]

What a great idea! I'll have to try it out sometime myself.

It was awesome! I can't take credit, though. I got the idea from a link Bunny provided. I almost fell once because my foot slipped, though! I was trying to look ahead the whole time instead of staring at the step.

Thank you! It makes much more sense than stuffing myself full of carbs in the evening for no reason!

Ahhh, live & learn...don't dwell on it too much, learn from the experience and move on. Plus I'm sure your body could use the re-feed

 

[Will2BLean]

Thanks, you guys. It totally wasn't worth it. Lesson learned.

 

[Roonytunes]

Thanks, you guys. It totally wasn't worth it. Lesson learned.

What I find about alcohol is ultimately it isn't the 2-3 glasses you consume but the munchies that come after it that are the problem. That's the lesson I've learned anyway. Now when I know I'll have a glass or two of wine, I remember to leave some macros left over, so I can come home & have a clean snack before going to bed. Also, eating before bed seems to help with minimal hangover the next morning.

Looking really good. Nice tan too

I'll have to try that. Usually I will alot enough calories for the drinks (usually lol), and I don't leave room for snacking. Thanks for the tips, Roony!

I can't believe how fast this year is going by!

Things to do after work:
*buy eggs and sandwich baggies
*run 2 miles
*pilates
*record Heroes for hubby
*boil eggs for this week
*laundry


6:45am - rise, 15 pushups, 30 bicycle
I talked myself out of running this morning and stayed in bed for 40 minutes longer than I should have. I'll just run tonight.

7:45 - .25c oats + ICBINB Spray, Splenda, Cinnamon; 5 egg whites

11:20 - tuna salad & spinach mixture. I WAS planning on having a sammich, but my Ezekiel bread was moldy.

1:13 - Green Tea

2:07 - LF cottage cheese, 1oz dry roasted peanuts

3:16 - cinnamon raisin bar

I'm extra hungry today. I don't know if it's a) I didn't eat enough yesterday; b) I'm bored; or c) I switched up my meals a bit (trying to lay of the PP). It's probably a combo of all three.

Good morning, Jamie Lynn and SBT!

I'm sitting here kicking myself in th butt for not running this morning.

 

[*Bunny*]

First of all excellent job on the squats & dips.
Your progress pics are great. Did you do side by sides? You lost at least an inch everywhere. Butt lifted, skin tighter, stomach tighter .. etc it's great.

Nice job will2. Looking awesome!!!

 

[Will2BLean]

Thanks, Bunny! I didn't do side by sides this time around. I plan on doing pics weekly (to keep me from slacking hehe), and i'll add those to these pics for comparison.

Is your cinnamon raisin bar home-made? If so, do you mind posting up the recipe? Sounds delish

Most def. I snagged the recipe from the O2 forum and tweaked it a bit.
It's in the recipe thread... Here!
http://www.elitefitness.com/forum/showpost.php?p=6795490&postcount=705

Once I use up all of this Splenda, I want to try them with stevia and lowfat cottage cheese.

Oooh, this sounds good....thanks!! Do you think I can bake them as muffins? Or does the consistency only work for bars? Also, do they have to be refrigerated?

I'm sure muffins would work. They may stick a little, though. I keep mine refrigerated in a ziploc baggie, and they're still edible 7 days later! When I take them to work (out of the fridge), they're still good in the evening.

6:30 - 15 ab wheel, 1 mile run/walk (not HIIT)
I couldn't get to sleep last night. I think I ate too much before bed. I ended up waking up 25 minutes late. I will change up my last meal today to see if that helps. Same thing happened Sunday night as well. I'm pooped!

7:45 - M1 - 6 egg whites, .25c oats + Splenda + cinnamon + ICBINB spray

11:45 - M2 - .5c cottage cheese, 1oz. peanuts, 1c CF earl grey tea w/ splenda

2:35 - M3 - .5 can tuna, 50g spinach, 1T Kraft Tuna Salad Maker, 1 WW tortilla, cinnamon raisin bar

5:35 - M4 - 1oz peanuts, 1sc PP

*run 1-2 miles, 20 minutes pilates*

m5 - TBD (probably chicken, green beans, and baked pot)

m6 - 1oz. peanuts

I found out that I'll have to do some promotional stuff on Thursday = several bars, usually several beers (which I'm not drinking! ), and getting in super late. I really have to get my rest in before then, or I will be one cranky mofo on Friday at my "real" job.

I am having one of those mad-at-the-world weeks. I just have the feeling where, well, where you feel the tables are turned against you, well, the small things anyways.. like, 2 of my favorite pair of pants breaking (the snap thing fell off), my favorite necklace breaking, getting pulled over for expired tags (I didn't get a notice in the mail due to a recent move) all since MONDAY!, and then there's one big thing...huge family crisis going on right now and everyone is falling apart. I haven't been able to sleep since last week... I've just been tossing and turning. Some stomach thing has me, well, running to the crapper all the time (TMI, sorry ), I've had to bust my ass at work and stay late, and to top it off, I haven't made it to the gym this week to work off my frustrations because of SO's basketball games. I could just scream. Okay, I'm done ranting. I feel a little better now.

M1 7:45 - .25c oats, 1sc PP, coffee

10:00 - .5c caramel corn (got a popcorn tin today at work. MMmmm.)

M2 11:00 - .5c LF cottage cheese, 1oz. peanuts

11:45 - 1c from popcorn tin
This is great comfort food, but I need to lay off it. Ugh.

have a great weekend.

I am not sure about the inside/outside grip thing, I think it has to do with elbows. I was told by my trainer just to put my hands where I feel comfortable.

Experts, get in here LOL

 

[*Bunny*]

Happy Bday dad!!!! Have fun tonight wiil2... You mean you aren't diggin the callouses? lol

About the grip, what is the most comf for you? I say stick with that. That answer will be user specific IMO

 

[Will2BLean]

Thanks, ladies!

No, Bunny, I'm not diggin the callouses... well, maybe a little because it makes me feel like I'm working hard.

As for the grip, outside is definitely more comfy. I guess I'll just stick with it!

Back to the regularly scheduled program... I'm sad the weekend is over, but I'm glad the fat fest is over, too. There will be a couple speed bumps this week: 1) hubby and I are going to Crapplebee's for happy hour one day. We've had this planned for a while, and since we never go on "dates", I will be cheating. Friday night we are eating fast food. We're going to a basketball game, and we're picking up junk on the way. So, already there are lots of cheats. I'm beginning to wonder if I should order some Sesapure for times like this.

6:30am 15 pushups, 30 bicycle upon rising
