See what happens when I take a weekend to relax? I miss out on all the action!
Ilene I am tired EVERY morning. Whenever I try and do my workout in the morning – it never happens. What type of red wine do you like? I love Merlots and the sweet chilled one – which I think is Tarragon??
Mindi Congratulations on getting married! My hubby and I eloped 5 years ago and one of the multiple reasons I did it was out of fear – that I would look fat on my wedding day (which I did). Sometimes I regret it but most times I don’t. We are planning on renewing our vows eventually probably for our 10 year anniversary or something and then I can have the big white wedding. Now you have extra reasons to work hard!
By the way I eat popcorn but usually on free days because I love butter and salt.
Sandy Food is where MOST of our issues lie. You are not alone girl! General staples? Oatmeal, rice, frozen vegetables, cottage cheese, yogurt, fruit, chicken, beef. All the basic stuff. Try and stay away from processed food and that is more than just junk food even what is normally considered ok. As for supplements I only take flaxseed oil, glutamine and glucosamine.
Jamie I can relate to how you feel – my husband is a hard gainer and he finds it very frustrating.
Meg Oh my hubby isn’t like that – he would NEVER push food away. He just opens his mouth and inhales and everything disappears. And he can’t eat ANYTHING in any quantity and not put on weight. Actually before he plays soccer if he doesn’t eat at least 2 bananas he can’t get through the game without getting dizzy. His metabolism is super-fast.
As for auditing – well it is a branch of accounting. My whole course is accounting.
Zilla Hi Erik!!
Leigh I don’t think it was anyone’s intention to ignore you – it is just that this is a very busy board and it’s hard to keep up with everyone. As for deleting your posts well that is your choice.
Amy What are you doing for the accounting firm?
Meow I have a 4-day split in my journal if you want to check it out. I would definitely CHANGE your lifting – it will give your body a new challenge and you won’t regret it.
Mel That description of your childhood makes me mad. I can’t understand parents who tell their children that they are fat – what are they thinking? I have a similar problem – the more I get the more I want. As for freeday – I ate enough caramel to sink a ship! Oh and a kebab and some mashies. I want a veggie garden!!!
Mox Muriel’s wedding is so funny and an icon over here. But actually we aren’t as stupid as the people in that movie!
My exam ewww it was awful. But it’s over now! Yippee!!
Deb Yes I was over at LCFs BFL forum. That’s why I asked! I think that there is some merit in low carbing and have been experimenting with it lately. By the way that IS the stepmill.
Beth How do you know if glutamine is working? You won’t be so sore that you can’t walk.
Adriana Sorry to hear about your migraines.
Tidey I used to send care packages to my husband when he was at sea. I always put in loads of food but also magazines etc.
Jayne Well I finished all my cooking last night and boy did it smell good. I hid that caramel in the back of the freezer so I forget about it until free day. WE will not cheat this week!! I just realized this morning that daylight savings is nearly over. Which way are we meant to go again?
Well except for my exam my weekend was cool. I spent Saturday afternoon just pottering around the house and then went to my neighbours for dinner. I slept in on Sunday and then Jayne came over and we worked out our menus for this week and then headed over to her place whilst hubby played soccer. I watched videos and infomercials whilst Jayne did her cooking and then hubby picked me up and I did my own cooking. I had an early night and woke up refreshed this morning for the first time in weeks! I am all set and prepared for a great week and soccer training starts this week so that should be good. Cardio from ****!
Hi to all of those that I didn’t address directly and I hope that you guys are having great weekends!
