WW's New SUMMER Log ...

[WoNderWoMan25]

Yup, the referee or "hoooker" as Bunns called it I hope it gets here soon so I can see how it fits and how short/long it really is. I'm still not 100% if I'll be brave enough to wear it out. Did you get your Hooters outfit yet???

I am getting together w/a gf tonight and we are ordering our costumes. I need to go back to the site and check out the costume you ordered. Please update me when you get it!!

Yep, 35g is very low, but that is on non-training days when I don't lift. I did okay for 6 weeks on it but then started having a few late evening breakdowns with protein bars and such. It's the number given to me by the Cathy Savage nutrition program I'm using (based on my size, goals etc.), but I did ask if they could up it a little for next month. So we'll see what they say. On days that I lift, I get 100g and I think my body is so damn overjoyed that by the time evening rolls around, I seem to have enough power to get through my training. In all fairness, my strength has gone up & I'm looking more cut....sooooooo aside from discomfort and being cranky at times, I can't say it's not working.

Ok - your cycle makes sense to me... Today is my third lower carb day. So far, I've only had a protein shake, egg whites, some leftover lean sirlion and some broccoli. I am VERY tired right now and I'm having trouble concentrating at work. I am going to eat some veggies, take a CB, and debate on whether or not I want to hit the gym. I felt good when I went this AM but I'm dragging right now. Can't wait for my oats in the AM!!!

Have a great hump day!!

I told ya, I done good!! Chicken and shrimp and sushi and lotsa green beans. I think the big difference is: pre-workout and post-workout. I didn't want to throw up all over the place.

Just got an email @ work - "Nick & I are going to KFC, does anyone want anything?" I work with a bunch of fatties, man!! If nothing else, they are entertainment. Another boring day at work,

I am waiting for apartment pics, floor plans, etc etc....
