Que's Journey begins

[que_66]

I mowed the lawn today, ate a cheat meal (Chinese food) that I'm still paying for and took the fat dog for a walk. Now I'm going to chug some pepto and head for bed. And to think that I used to eat that stuff almost every week. I still feel like I'm gonna hurl.
Consider that a lesson learned.

Half a bottle of stomach stuff & 4 rolls of tp later it's a pretty safe assumption that I won't be eating chinese food again any time soon. I feel like I've been run over. I don't even want coffee.

If anyone needs me I'll be in the bathroom. I'll be the one wearing the "IMADUMB*SS" hat.

Q honey, we ALL go through this ... it's part of the learning process & journey GF... It never feels as good afterwards, as it tastes when it's going down ... Just drink lots of water... please... for your body to release all the water & all the sodium in the Chinese food... until you float away ... Head up ... you're doing great

Well I managed to get some of the house clean during "bathroom breaks." LOL
I managed to go get some groceries and guess what I found?

Ezekial bread, 3 varieties. I bought the Exekiel 4:9 in the orange wrapper. Gonna give that a whirl. they still don't have soy pasta but apparently it's coming. Seems they are expanding their healthy/organic foods section due to so many requests. They actually have a refridgerated case now that's bigger than my closet!

I even bought a muffin tin and I'm getting ready to give those tuna muffins from the recipe thread a whirl too. Tuna Muffin Recipe

Ok, I'm off to the kitchen to remember how to cook and try not to burn the house down.

OK, girlfriend, just because I've been quiet over the weekend doesn't mean I'm not watching you

You've had such a good week, all that am cardio, muscle aches etc.

How's the morning protein working for you?

Chinese. Mmmm. For some reason, as soon as you clean out your system, wontons and beef with broccoli just doesn't go down the same way. What about that banana, PB and honey sandwich thing you were talking about? That might be the new cheat. Also, can't beat Glucorell and a gallon of water for easing the after effects of crap food.



So, enough of the nice talk. Get your ass moving woman. This new week has to be a repeat of the last.












But I still luv ya, lady Have I thanked you for my ass whipping? You're a big part of this whole process for me - thank you for being here - please don't stop

(1) OK, girlfriend, just because I've been quiet over the weekend doesn't mean I'm not watching you

(1) e-mooned ya again. I'm not having much DOMS and that concerns me. Either my body is beginning to recover quicker or I'm just not doing enough even though it seems like it at the time. I leave the gym exhausted.

(2) Much better thank you. I still have to tweak the diet and get some things shuffled around. I have some new foods to incorporate so I can get this stomach acid in check and not feel hungry all the time. I'm slowly getting more of the organic foods incorporated. They're expensive so I'm trying to choose wisely.

(3) I used to eat chicken lomein almost every week. OMG how did I ever survive with all that crap in my body?

(4) I was too lazy to go buy a bananna but the PB & honey spread on a whole wheat tortilla is AWESOME!

(5) Ya ya ya bring it sisterfriend!

(6) Ditto.

now make sure you get your fins up tomorrow for cardio!

I need a little guidance.

I have to adjust my workout routine. I need to pick up a 2nd job, weekends only for a while and I want to babysit the grandbaby 1 night during the week.

I still plan on am cardio 5 days per week but I have to get my gym time down to 4 days per week. I'm thinking a two day split of upper/lower body and I know I'm going to have to hit it hard on those 4 days.

Yes, I'll be ordering something for energy because working 7 days per week won't be easy. I'm not happy about it but I gotta do what I gotta do.

OK NELMS!! NELMS!! Get in here.....

What about adapting my workout? 4 day split, working bodyparts twice per week (I will also add a couple of isolation exercises for bis/tris). We have similar stats and goals...

Q - see link Nelm's Workout for Mermaid

 

[que_66]

Morning weight 157.5 ( friggin plateau)
I can tell I'm still bloated from the CFI (chinese food incident) so I'm be doing my best to keep chugging the water & get the chemicals flushed out.

Time for pilates

 

[que_66]

Well I survived day 1 of 2nd week of am cardio. I need to start stretching because I've noticed that I'm not as flexible as I think I should be. Looks like I'll be hunting a yoga video. I have PM Yoga on VHS but the dvd player is hooked up to the tv and I don't really wanna move the entire entertainment center 2 times a day to change connections. Might hunt down that switching station thingy that I know I have somewhere.








Merms....you better have them fins in the water by now... fins stretch to the left....ready: stretch,2,3,4........
