wow, ok... i took a nap and woke up to all these nice messages...

so, to answer some questions...

im not and wasnt doing any specific "program", just kinda doing my own thing i put together for my busy lifestyle and personality... i decided to eat at the minimum amount of calories recomended for a female, which is 1200 per day. i checked into nutrisystem, and aside from it being way too expensive, most of the meals looked gross... i came to the conclusion that nutrisystem is just about 1200 calories per day, so i figured i would do my own "nutrisystem"... i but whatever frozen diet meals that are on sale at the grocery store... i keep a stock of varieties in my freezer. i have my faves, and i dress them up a bit with fresh veggies and such... then, to avoid any plateus, failure due to not getting what i want, and allowing my body to kinda reset its self, i decided that every 2 weeks, so every OTHER SATURDAY, after 2 weeks of hard work, i would have 1 day of carefree eating. its not cheating because its part of my plan. i eat whatever it is that i want, in whatever quantity i want. i planned my family activities around these 2 days per month, so, like disneyland or knotts berry farm... then i can eat with my family without the world revolving around me and calorie counting...

for exercise, i go to the gym 5 days a week. about 45 minutes cardio and about 45 minutes strength training... i do whatever... sometimes running on the tread, other times walking... sometimes elliptical, sometimes stairmaster... for lifting weights, i do my arms, back, and chest / abs mon-wed-fri, and i do my legs, back, and butt tue-thu...

im on maintenance now, so, i have continued to stick to my low calories during the week, and then have free calorie days every sat and sun... i still log, so i know that my week average is just about 2000 per day... however, its kinda "zig-zagged"

i nap everyday! love my naps... i have a set nap time, and i get very angry if anyone disturbs me... i think napping is good for you, in japan, they take naps, daily... some employers even allow the employees a nap time to go home and nap... andf people in japan live long lives! wether im right or wrong, i dont care, i still love my naps!
