*SlimmerMe's Progress Log*

[Sgt. Hartman]

I am on hiatus for the moment.

Have a lot of activities going on and just have to partake in temptation for awhile and then I will jump right back on!
Mostly ALL pre-planned. And it started up Thursday night and is still in progress.....

Let me put it this way: I am acting like a teenager....

Awesome! I love to hear that even people on this board are human and like to enjoy themselves and have a good time occasionally.

LOL. Typing this while drinking ketel one with tonic and fresh lime - my favorite. It's part of my cheat meal, even though I won't eat for another few hours!

Enjoy yourself and have a good time Slim but get right back to business come Monday.

[qkcam]

Thanks qK...

[SlimmerMe]

I have GOT to get back down to business SOONER THAN LATER!

at least I have been swimming and going to the gym during this run-away hiatus!

The only thing I can hope is: hopefully my metabolism has gotten a kick start by getting sidetracked for a week thus might help shed the BF when I get back to a cleaner palate. Or is this wishful thinking? Curious.....

Possibly, but don't count on it. Depends on just how 'bad' you've been IMO. If you've been eating out of control, you may have added more bodyfat than the boosted metabolism will compensate for. Don't mean to be negative here, just wanna be realistic.

Just get back to the grind as soon as you can and don't look back, it'll do you no good anyway.

[SlimmerMe]

LOL! good to see you Standby~

Trust me I am not counting on it. Just trying to find something good to come out of this past week other than having the time of my life!

Note: I had a good day today. Very good as a matter of fact. My ruckus ways have calmed down a bit to say the least!

Not having a lengthy hangover would be good and no self inflicted injuries.....: P

My outside influence is BACK on the plane headed many miles from me!

WHEW!

BACK TO BUSINESS!

[Buddhabody]

Good to see your back to business. I'm following and wishing you more success.

[qkcam]

we all need a vacation from time to time and some good fun company! otherwise what's the point of working so hard if you can't enjoy it! I think it is great that you kept swimming and training.. sounds like the body was moving- and whenever the bod is moving- is always a good thing!!

Reporting things like this is REALLY good. When you take a week off (more or less) and your body does not revert back to old ways (gaining fat and halting progress at first chance it gets) it means that your body sees your current direction as positive and necessary. This is what GB is trying to accomplish when he refers to "nutrient partitioning" - creating a new priority for the body. Of course GB's case is different but the outcome is the same. Anyway, now that you know it is possible to take time off and not lose progress you are left with a couple of options:
1. You can put in the same effort and make better progress as your body seems to have a new way of dealing with stimuli (lose fat gain muscle)
2. Relax on your diet and maintain (you can relax on diet or workouts but I would chose diet as working out is what keeps your body set on gaining muscle and losing fat)
3. This option is counterproductive so I won't mention it...

Great job slim. Smooth sailing from here on out.

[gbrice75]

^^^ good post Twist and agreed 100%. Option 1 all the way for me. You forgot option 4 - hit it even harder and force the body way out of its comfort zone - that's what i'm planning to do over the next few months. I know Narko has the same thing in mind.

Congrats SM, good stuff!!!

edit - love the new avy!!!!

[SlimmerMe]

No kidding! LOL! Thanks Pit!
