Weight is up 3.4 pounds from last week--no big deal. I am not concerned. I will keep you posted.0 -
Whats the lifting split look like? And what styles of HIIT are you doing?0
-
busy schedule!
Re pics: unsure what phone you have but the way I do it is simple. I take pics with phone, upload straight to picasa using "picasa tool" app. Then I just go there on my puter and copy urls. Too easy

Split is just upper/lower and it's 2 of each per week. HIIT is treaddy running--sprints, walk. 1 min on/1 off. fun stuff, eh?
I have an iphone. never used picasa though.0 -
breakfast and a lunch/dinner I've been having

looks good
if you have a gmail account, you have a picasa account. Otherwise, there must be an app for iphones to do the same thing I'd think.0 -

Keeping my calories at a steady 2000 each day and going to monitor my march progress.0
-
Past 2 days have been pure cardio days--nothing intense, just slow and steady. Weigh ins have been good both days BUT today marks the beginning of progesterone (the I want to eat the f#cking house hormone). UGH! Wish me luck!0
-
Day 2 of progesterone--weight up ~2 pounds. Eats are good. Workouts are good.0
-
Progesterone is done--weight is at 110.6 this morning. Just monitoring to try to figure out my TDEE...been eating somewhere around 2000-2200 every day with 1x a week at ~2500 or so. We shall see what happens. Still kicking *kitten* in the gym...but i do have a huge blister that royally screwed up my workout this morning. I'll live.
How's everyone else?0 -
progesterone is only short term?
Quality maintenance cals
And I'm more than all good. Loving life!0 -
Chris--yes, it's basically to look at my estrogen levels indirectly. I have hypothalamic amenorrhea--it's a mess. So, yeah it 's over now. YAY, I'm glad you're loving life.0
-
Hope you can sort it all out And I can see why you are so against super low calorie dieting.
Hope everything is good with you too. When is Freddie back?0 -
I'm headed there this week--Friday! YAY! I can't wait. Thanks for the well wishes. I hope I can sort it out too. It's rather stressful to say the least.0
-
where is "there" exactly? Far from you? 0
-
Really far--we are on opposite coasts. 3 hours time difference. He's in CA and I'm on the East coast for school.0
-
I got 75 x 18 on bench today. weight is up, I'm constipated. BOO! Going to eat high fat, low carb, low bulk, lots of water, and hope that things get moving!0
-
would high fibre be better? lots of wholemeal? and a couple glasses of fibrogel or something?0
-
if i am constipated i also sometime use glycerol suppositories... work brilliant in around 10 mins0
-
I already eat a TON of fiber. It's not a lack of fiber that is causing this-it's due to my inability to run which always results in constipation. Really really sucks.0
-
Also, I'll still get ~40g of fiber today because I generally eat foods that are high in fiber. I'll see if I can find some suppositories at the pharmacy near my house.0
-
So, today is a high fat kind of a day. I finally used the restroom! YAY! Not great but progress and that's all I can ask for.
I've had 9-10 cups of water today (didn't REALLY count)...I'll have 2-3 more before the day is done.
My eats have included: eggs (4 jumbo omega 3 eggs), salmon (1.5 pounds), canned salmon, wild greens, kashi cereal, almonds, protein shake, and protein bar.
Here is my average calorie intake for the past 5 full weeks.
Feb 4-Feb 10th 2437
Feb 11th- Feb 17th 1582
Feb 18th-Feb 24th 2295
Feb 25th – Mar 3rd 1909
Mar 4th- Mar 10th 2145
Average: ~2075 calories
My weight hasn't been adversely impacted. That's awesome.0 -
