New Log New Log!!!Couldn't decide between "Discovering Red" - A Journey: *Bunny* Log - Red is my nickname since the Cancer & the new head of Red Hair is obvious
... Red is my alter, the new me, born again, etc ... but I went with my initial instinct 
Saving the ^^ for my book. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Dead Solid, Perfect” -
Dedicated to a lady who never gave up on me, or judged me … THANK YOU ... And NOT taken from the legendary golf novel of the 70’s 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Going to try to keep this as short as I can & to the point …
**NO SUCH THING in Bunny Land**Intro :
And so it begins, the long awaited dawn of a new log … RIP ~400 Page Bunny Log Hate to see it go, but it’s about that time. I am now 2 years out from my last Chemo, as of July 21st, 2006, which means I have less than 3 years to go for a remission declaration. 
Yee haw 
That date was also the last day I trained with any type of weights … 
. SO, I figured on the never ending journey to help myself find ‘the way’ , I thought hey, why not share my journey with hopes of Inspiring, Motivating & Encouraging others to do so as well… got me this far 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Stats as of Tuesday, August 08, 2006:
Body Weight: 163.2 lbs
BF%: TBD … Last measurement was ~ 13-14 % … Probably about 16-18% right now .. When my gurl gets back from Hawaii, I will get pinched with corresponding photos
Plan to take pics & get BF done every 2 weeks 
Height: 5’9" as of last measure
Pics: Soon …
Measurements: N/A Haven’t taken these in forever
Not really looking to ‘lose inches’ per se, just tighten up, re-shape & see my ab veins & 6 pack .. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Goals & Misc. Info:
* Be healthy & Happy
* Go back to school – after this, entertain the possibility of looking for a job that offers Group Health Insurance
* Finish my 3 photo shoots – These have been put off for SOME time now. If I count I have missed probably 3-5 opportunities in the past year b/c ‘something’ comes up or gets in the way: Not going to deal with that anymore. I do not have hopes of being a famous fitness model, just something I want to do for myself, accomplishments to be proud of & pics to maybe show the grand kids one day
Whatever else happens is a bonus.* Lose Body Fat, Maintain muscle – I can afford to lose some muscle, I hold onto muscle & build it easier than I thought.
* Keep diet clean as possible – I would like to make my cheat/reward meal once a week(end), hopefully set aside for spending time with my family & people that are dear to me. Alcohol hinders fat loss (for me), so that will be kept to a bare minimum, & reserved for special occasion.
*Do something everyday – Ck, thank you
Just get out there & do something, get moving, blood flowing, oxygen pumping .. SOMETHING … ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Diet & Training Info:
Supplements, Stims, Vitamins & Mineral’s (hey that kinda rhymes) : This will vary day to day … Check out daily log to see what I’ve added for that day
^^ This will change over time .. starting out slow
Split: I’ll be more than happy to share as soon as I figure it out. Right now my goal is do SOMETHING …
Diet: My base is 40/30/30. Going to try to keep cals 10-12 X bodyweight, but this may dip or raise about my 'range' depending on workout & if my body says, "FEED ME". I am currently eating things that I can stomach without feeling sick (Chicken, Apples, Egg Beaters, Oatmeal [slow cooked Quaker NOT instant], Extra Virgin Olive Oil). I have ZERO appetite so this is more like fuel the body than ‘feeding’ it. This will be updated to add more green veggies once I go shopping & I plan to incorporate a carb rotation to correlate with my training split that is *TBD*
Something I borrowed from another forum
I’ll give it back if/when I ever post over there & will be including in my daily posts Workout Rating:
Mental Day Rating:
Bod Rating: *Just added*
Overall Day rating:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*** I will do my best to update this log once a day or every few days. I will happily provide an answer (if I have it) to any questions, concerns, split questions, diet recommendations etc. that you might have. I will help in any way shape or form that I am able. Keep in mind, my knowledge & advice come from what I learned on here, practical application, reading, study & as from the opinions of others as well as my own … these do NOT supersede that of a medical Professional, unless of course, I become one
***^^ If this isn't obvious ... Nice disclaimer lol
