She killed me tonight, none of what I wrote down we did.
This is what we did instead....
10minutes on jacobs ladder
squats on a half ball holding a medicine ball 3x10 each side
lunges 3x10
jumping up on bench squats 3x10
lunges using bench and half ball 3x01 each side
ab thingy using roller going to floor and back up
My legs collasped from under me!
Her explaination of carb ratio:
something about holding water in the muscles or something. ahhhh, I can't remember. I am emailing her tomorrow to explain better, I was dead at the end of the workout and can barely walk, which is awesome, but I couldn't make out what she was saying.
She did tell me to lay off soo much whole grain bread, she said it was good cause I get my protein with it but could be the cause of the bloating considering I eat it for every meal right now (gotta go grocery shopping)
I actually emailed her right now.

Hey Ck!!!!! I just caught up on your journal!!! Geesh I have missed a lot. Your pictures look FREAKIN AMAZING!! OMG!!! What a difference from the last time I saw you!! You must be proud.
RE: headache... by any chance did you do upright rows or shrugs previous? or any trap exercise?? I get really bad headaches after working them. The only thing I find works for extended headaches like those are to pinch my trap muscle with 2 fingers. Like really hard until the pain is 8-10 on the pain scale of 1-10 10 being can't stand it pain. Keep pinching until the pain slowly starts to diminish.. and it will. I get a tingly feeling up my neck and around my ear area. Sometimes I have to hold the pinch for a good 2-3 mins. It's way better if someone else does it for you so that you can relax your arms. I hope that made sense.
I hope all is well.. and I will keep checking up on yah!!
Have a wonderful day... byeeee

Back is really sore now, moved 5 dressers up the stairs and furniture and boxes around the basement. So I am not sure if I can count that as my workout, it took 8 hours soooo

...supremely happy, in a "place" of profound and unspeakable beauty. A place where all are bathed in showers of unconditional LOVE. I am home, and before long, you will be too, and we will be together always. But until we embrace again, let me also share this with you... so that you can better understand those things that may trouble you the most:
I now know that the love I feel here was at all times on earth too, and all one must do in order to feel it, is to KNOW it is there. This love that shines on you now is there to comfort and console, to heal and restore, and to bring laughter and joy. You have set lofty goals for yourself and the challenges you've chosen are admirable, but with this love and the faith that you can do all things, even these noble callings will one day soon be little more than baby steps in your march to gaining dominion over every time-space illusion. You will prevail. Your dreams, as well as the obstacles placed on your path, are gifts given you so that you might sooner see this Light that now surrounds you.
Of these gifts, my parting was one. You need not be sad, for even now I am with you - though you must close your eyes to see me. The illusion of death presses one on to greater understandings, for only when faced with darkness can you begin to properly seek the light. A light that will reveal that there can be no endings, goodbyes, or sadness, without beginnings, reunions, and happiness, and that you and I are unlimited Beings of Light adventuring throughout creation so that we may rediscover the magnificence of our own divinity. We are Gods rolling like thunder through the heavenly landscapes of eternity, where there are only miracles, there is only love, and Everything is holy.
Before you on earth there remain infinite possibilities for the most fulfilling time of your life, in a universe conspiring on your behalf. The world is indeed your oyster, though your "work" is not yet done, and you will be happiest if you cling not too tightly to the past. But if you must, take solace in your times of sorrow by knowing that I am always there, that I will be at your triumphant homecoming, and that I too have prepared a place for you in a blissful celebration that is only just beginning.
For my friend
Muscles hold water intercellular after bouts of exercise because water helps to repair the torn down muscle that occurred through lifting weights. I don't get the high amounts of carbs she had you on.. maybe if you were a marathon runner or endurance athlete....ck2006 said:She killed me tonight, none of what I wrote down we did.

I know today is a rough day for you so I just wanted to stop in and let you know that you're in my thoughts 
I don't get the rationale behind the high carb allowance, but I will admit I'm friggin' jealous. I only get 35g of complex carbs on my non-lifting days and I try to be so creative to break that up into 2 servings.

I know what your saying, we have told him exactly what you are saying, I was going to phone the school anomoynously (spelling). I worked for a junior high as a educational assistant for 8 years with special needs children so I know all to well (fortunatly, and unfortunatly they either knew or didn't know they were getting bullied) my boy does, it is breaking my heart.
I will talk to him again and ask him if he wants me to phone anomoymously, cause he didn't seem to keen in the first place and hubby and I were saying he might not tell us anymore. But there needs to be more supervision on the playground.
We told him never to start a fight but finish it, the crying thing was totally unexpected. We are dreading monday for him, but just keep on telling him to suck it up and to act like nothing happened, if the boy starts bugging him again we gave him some good one liners to come back with.
The contact sport is a good idea, I like your thinking

I am not worried about the whole getting hurt issue, I hear what your saying. It is funny cause when I worked for the school board they found out what I told my son, and man were they mad cause no fighting is tolerated, but I said tooo bad, we can't be there all the time to save them so what are they supposed to do. That is what we told him, never start a fight, but finish it, even if you lose it will be better than running away. My husband and I just talked about it and he is one, going to start going to the gym with him and two we are going to let him decide which sport.
My boy wants to join the army, or be a scientist, or...lol
I was picked on a lot in the junior years. We moved a lot & I never fit in, always the new guy. My parents told me never to fight, so I got my asss kicked a lot. 2 things I've learned. If someone is calling you names, walk away. It doesn't hurt you & he looks foolish because he's ineffective. If someone is talking shit about you, or starts a fight you can't avoid, deal with it right there, or it will make you sick. If you keep running, that rep ends up defining you & it turns into a self fulfilling prophecy.
IMO, calling the school may help, but the chances are less than 50/50. Calling the persons parents is usually a better tactic, especially if you tell them that you're gonna encourage your boy to beat theirs. No one wants to know their kids are actively disliked for anti-social reasons.
Hope it works out well for your boy. I really feel for him. I was there for about 7 yrs, & it was not good.

Well I had another talk with my son. I am feeling a little better. I hope he is going to take my advice and realize monday is a new day, but i guess we shall see. I told him he has two choices, he either doesn't play soccer at recess or he does and puts up with it, (unless of course it gets physical) we gave him some good one liners to use if they start getting mouthy, mostly
" your momma's so ugly...." I don't know why he gets bugged, hmmmm, maybe cause is mom is a geek LOL, those were the only come backs I could think of.

Aside from the fact that I was always the new guy, all the kids in the areas I grew up where farm boys, or into sports. WE never lived on farms, so I didn't know diddly, & we were so dirt poor, my brother & I couldn't get involved in sports. Plus the fact I always wore my brother's hand me downs. It became so that most of the kids I played with were girls. Let me tell you, I had a LOT of fun. But my parents actually thought I was gonna be gay, LOL.ck2006 said:
Anyways, who knows why one kid gets picked on & the next one won't. That's where the teachers need to get involved, with everyone, & make sure kids are involved, & other kids don't bully. I'm afraid he's gonna have to get in a scrap or 2. That's the way it worked for me. I would get beat on & just cower, or run, 'cause I wasn't supposed to fight. When I started fighting back, whether I won or lost, I got more respect.

Some teachers supported me and others were like let them sort it out for themselves. But when you see a kid not coming to school, and I had to literally go pick him up and bring him to school cause his parents could of cared less it makes me sooooo angry.
he is the new kid too, this is his 4th school and he is in gr6 but we don't plan on moving anymore. Yup, that is what my hubby said in junior high he was the smallest kid and once he stuck up for himself he got more respect to.

and that is exactly what it is mean, I find, now again this is just based on my experience that kids with parents that aren't that involved usually end up with kids that bully, or I hate to say this really aggressive sports parents.

Awww I just caught up on all this drama. CK I would so be the type to go kick the bully's parents ass if their kid was messing with mine. I would go straight for the kids dad & wail on him ... Can you imagine the kids at school?!

I agree with the NOT calling the school thing......I got bullied too as a kid & when my mom called the school to complain, the principal had a talk with the class which made the torture 1,000 times worse.....
I remember in grade 3 & 4, there was this one guy who used to pick on me mercilessly. Beating me, tripping me in class. He even used to beat up guys in grade 6. The teacher used to give me a ride home, 'cause the guy would wait for me (she had nice legs, LOL). The principal tried everything, but the kid wouldn't stop. The kid's parents couldn't do anything. Other kids were afraid of him, so they wouldn't help, then they would join in sometimes also. Finally, one day, I'd had enough. I guess I lost it, I don't remember, but I remember chasing him home & him being all bloody. The principal called my Mom & everyone was actually happy about it. It was good that I stuck up for myself, but sad that he couldn't stop before pushing a shy passive guy into that kind of response. The poor kid actually got killed a coupla years later, 'cause he wouldn't do as he was told & his Dad backed over him with a horse trailer.jenscats5 said:
There were others over the years, but that was the worst, & the beginning of my lack of tolerance for bullies.
On the other hand, you have to watch kids that were bullied, because often they turn into bullies themselves. I did with one student in grade 9, but I realized what I was doing, sincerely apologized, & we actually became friends, of sorts. I look back with deep shame on this incident.
Sorry to hijack your thread.

On the other hand, you have to watch kids that were bullied, because often they turn into bullies themselves. I did with one student in grade 9, but I realized what I was doing, sincerely apologized, & we actually became friends, of sorts. I look back with deep shame on this incident.
Sorry to hijack your thread.
Your not hijacking my thread, I appreciate you sharing with me, especially with the situation we are currently in. It helps my husband and I to make decisions that are extremely hard to make.
Thank you for being able to share cause I know it must be difficult looking back. I know in grade 6 and part of grade 7 I was bullied and in the middle of grade 7 a grade 9 kid stood up for me and told the kid if you want to fight somebody, fight me and beat the crap out the kid who was bullying me (it was a boy) I was left alone after that.I had mentioned that I was on the road to sticking up for myself. This was all done with by the time I hit grade 10. But in grade 7 there was a girl who picked on me. She was tough, but she also knew that most boys wouldn't fight back. One day we were getting on the city bus downtown & she was ahead of me, she turned around & kicked me right in the plumsck2006 said:Your not hijacking my thread, I appreciate you sharing with me, especially with the situation we are currently in.

. People just stepped over me like I wasn't there. She picked on someone else later who had no such illusions of chivalry. He broke her nose. 
I got her back by "dating" her younger sister in H.S.. In this case, revenge was a dish best served hot .BTW, I don't talk about the bullying much, but it doesn't really bother me. It made me who I am today. Going through it today might be different, but back then it was a common occurance & it usually got dealt with by parents etc. That was the late 60s early 70s.

I was born in 1975 LOL hee hee. sorry
Nobody should have to go through what you did and for so long! However, I hear what your saying about how it made you who you are today.
I guess you didn't have any older brother's?!?! I have 2 that would beat the sh!t out of me and so when I went to school they toughened me up. I still remember the time on the school bus this girl would not stop (she had nasty @ss braces too I remember) and had a long braided pony tail down to her butt. One day she said something walked by me and I grabbed her pony tail and flipped her over backwards and told her I was going to rip it off, spit flying pissed off, she was screaming like a girl and crying. Then another time some girl would just run her mouth, and so I leveled her into a thorn bush (it was summer and she was in a tank top and shorts) well she was crying because obviously she was then wearing thorns. I didn't think she had enough when she walked out so I picked her up and literally threw her back in and push the branches into her. The third time was a guy and he just kept saying stupid stuff so I punched him in the face and gave him a bloody nose and he went crying home to his mother. I even delt with his mom afterwards and then she looked at him and said,"Nick, it looks like you deserved it get in the house." Then I got in trouble one day in first grade because the girl dared me to say the word penis out loud. So I just started yelling it and dancing around and then I got in trouble and had detention.HiDnGoD said:I had mentioned that I was on the road to sticking up for myself.

Besides that I never got picked on really and never got in trouble. Gotta thank having older brothers for something they instilled in me!
Well, I do have an older brother who liked to torment me, but our parents told us never to fight, & I thought my Dad was god, so we didn't. Plus, I really have always been to nice for my own good. I hated to hurt people. I wanted to hurt them enough to make them stop, but no more. Trouble was, whenever I did fight, I didn't know when to stop, or how to escalate. I just lost it. A year after the incident I mentioned above, I got picked on by a guy at Cubs, so on the way home, I nailed him & broke his nose. Trouble was, I ran away after. Well, he thought it was a lucky punch & didn't stop, so I had to fight him again, that was a nasty one. From then on, whenever I fought, it was all or nothing.treilin said:

In the swimming pool, I HATE swimming but gotta do it, the kids love it. All I can do is doggy paddle
Noooo lakes, the girls are STILL getting over that swimmer's itch, even if it was warm enough, I don't think I could bribe them to go.My son and I went over a million senerios of what could happen tomorrow. He is soooo worried. I though it wasn't bothering him, until just before bed he came up and asked me. I will keep you posted tomorrow as to what happens.

got all my stuff done, but I burnt my rice, tonights workout was kick ass!!!!!!! The gym wants me to work their part time in the mornings running the daycare and in the evenings behind the desk, I told them I am still waiting to hear back about this other job. Which I doubt I got but I give them a couple more days to phone then I am taking the job at the gym
My boy did fine today, thank goodness. They didn't really play soccer at recess they just took turns kicking the ball into the net, nobody bugged him or said anything!
