SBT's First Journal...

sbt2082

Plat Hero
Platinum
Ok I have decided that I am gonna start a journal...not because I have that drastic of goals in mind or anything but figured it would also be a way to keep myself in check too :) Still pretty new around here but I guess I have been posting for almost a month or so and figured I would give this a shot.

So here goes nothing... I would say that my main goal is to just stay toned and maybe add a little bit of muscle actually and I would also like to get to about the 14-16% range for body fat. Although I have learned that numbers don't matter at all and its more about how you feel about yourself! I change my workout around every few weeks that way I can vary the amount or reps and weights etc.

I am gonna try to stay on top of posting my diet each day as well as my workouts that way you all can help me anywhere along the way!!! Because of course the input is the only way to get some help and improve ;) It doesn't change too much from day to day though except that I have been trying to carb cycle the last couple weeks. Water consumption I would say is around 1 1/2 to 2 gallons easy (including what goes in shakes and oats)

CURRENT STATS:
height:5'5"
weight: ranges 132-138
body fat: was 18% about a month ago

Morning workout consisted of 45 minutes of the interval program on the Stair Master on an empty stomach of course and I will be going back tonight after work to do weights (back and biceps) which I will post later on tonight.

FOOD 4 2DAY
7:00 a.m. 5 egg whites, 1 whole egg, 1/4 cup oats
10:30 a.m. 1/4 cup oats, 1/2 banana, 1/2 scoop whey
1:30 p.m. 5 oz chicken breast baked, 2 cups romaine, 1/4 brocolli, 3 oz sweet potato
4:30 p.m. Smoothie- 3 strawberries, 1 1/2 scoops whey isolate
6:00 p.m. PWO- 8 oz gatorade, 1 scoop whey isolate
7:30 p.m. 5 oz chicken breast, 1 cup green beans, 1/4 cup bell peppers, 1/2 cup cooked brown rice
10:00 p.m. 1/4 cup almonds

*** If I forgot to mention anything that usually goes in first post feel free to ask or let me know*** :)

****Notes to myself***
Well today for some odd reason I decided to get on the scale when I had gone back for weights??? Why I have no clue? I guess since I thought my pants had been loser maybe I was losing but ohhhhhhhhh no.... I apparently gained 3 lbs :( Although I know in all reality I shouldn't even care about the weight and go with how I feel... so I am noting to myself to NOT llet myself be upset about it... and on a lighter note my spin teacher did ask me to sit in front row because she said I was a motivator for her to go harder :)

1. Go by how you feel because the scale can't feel the difference between muscle and fat. :heart:

2. :velvett: WOOHOOOOOOOO the student is pushing the teacher. :garza:

STEP away from the scale please....slowly and carefully so NO ONE gets hurt!! :velvett:
Take out your sledgehammer and kill it... You have to walk up from behind it slowly and do a sneak attack.... :smash:
 
Hey SBT! Great job on getting a log started :twirl:

Don't worry about those numbers!!!! I no longer own a scale, and I think I like it better that way. I weigh in 1 or 2x every couple weeks, but that's it...just to get an idea of what my body is doing.

:wavey:

Funny you say that... because when I was leaving that is exactly what I told my trainer friend LOL I said... hey, if that scale is broken tomorrow or smashed up don't come looking for me ;)
 
Diet looks great, so do your legs!

How long have you been training for? Do you find it easy to stick with, i.e. is it your lifestyle? Just curious :)

Hey Sbt.... sorry to hear that you're having trouble sleeping..that really sucks. :worried: My guess is that it is related to the diet. I had this problem for awhile too.... I think my body was waking up because it thought it was time to eat or something. Anyway, I woke up during the night like that for about a month.....it seems to be better now. You're body will probably adjust.
You could take some melatonin before bed. That has helped me.

Happy sleeping!!! :sleep2:

You might give OxyCalm a shot. I sleep much better now that I've been using it. I'm one of those people who constantly toss and turn at night. Oxy helps.

I remember the sweet HAPPY feeling that takes the mind over when its a high carb day :) It somehow seems to make up for the previous few days of H-E-L-L and CRABBYNESS... well at least I think so :)

Zack-ly ... :)

:wavey: Have a gerat day & rest of the week .. you are too sweet & thank you for all the time spent trying to cheer me up :rose:
 
Shit girl -- why do we beat ourselves up over what looks like "slow" or "no" progress --

Still say the relevant measures are:

- do you have more energy?
- are you sleeping better?
- do you LOOK better?
- the same pants -- how are they fitting over time?

Its not a dramatic process - its slow, consistent and then when you do stop to look (not just at the scale), its really amazing what the ol' bod & some determination can do!

Congrats on your progress -- def see the overall progress. And you are gifted w/ very nice calves! Mine are beefy as shit but they are such a beeeyotch to cut up.

Thanks for that reality check... you are very right though what is the most important is going with how we feel :)

To answer your questions...
-I do realize that overall energy has picked up (except on those low carb days LOL which also a BIG THANK you again for showin me some carb cycles)
-As far as my sleep, ughhh, its about non existent i think because I wake up every few hours
-When it comes to looks, well we are our own WORsT critique of course but I have been getting more compliments lately
-And yup the same pants (all my dress pants worn to work) have been fitting loosely again where as my jeans are tighter LOL because been workin on gettin a booty ;)
