lol yea, best way for me to ease into a lower carb intake. Plus, my workout started Monday, and that dictates where in my carb cycle I should be.
63 miles is a hike... but I'll tell you what - if you're gonna go, make it worth it. I'd get 2 burritos:
1 - chicken and steak (ask for double the meat, i.e. full portions of both), rice (they offer white or brown, both cilantro-lime), black beans (or pinto), medium salsa (it's fairly hot... their hot must be REALLY hot), corn, peppers and onions, sour cream, shredded cheese, lettuce, and since you're not caring about calories, spring for the guacamole which will tack on an extra $2
2 - same as above, but go with pork and steak. They also have another type of beef, shredded... but I prefer the steak (cubes).
I haven't tried it, but heard their salad dressing (chipotle-honey) is amazing, you might want to ask for a side of it.
They also have tacos, etc. but I'd stick with the burritos which are amazing.
You guys are still talking about Chipotle. Now I have to go get a burrito.
I love Chipotle. I get the burrito bowl - without the tortilla, it's almost not cheating at all!
I'm at my hungriest time of the day. Looking forward to my meal at 7pm, which will be:
2 whole eggs
1.5 cup whites
3 slices lean Canadian bacon
red, yellow, and orange sweet peppers
mushrooms
onion
low-fat shredded cheese
green pepper sauce
Omlette style, plus a big glass of vanilla flavored unsweetened almond milk. :)
Cajun tilapia. Omg so simple but I bet so good. I'm trying that tomorrow. You shouldn't be jealous.. Your doing 2200 cals per day? Try 1500... And soon to be 1300. If you think you're hungry now haha, you'd keel over w/ my diet! Speaking of which, how'd the carb cycling go?
lol... i'm doing about 2000 calories/day for 3 days of my carb cycle (Mon/Tues/Wed), but for the next 3 days it'll be around 1600 calories (dropping 100g carbs for my 3 no carb days). Keep in mind I'm a 215lb male!!
I'll be able to answer the carb cycle question after I make it through the next 3 grueling days, lol. I ran this same carb cycle about 1.5 years ago though, so I've already 'been there, done that'. Sunday is my carb re-feed day. Gonna be epic! Still only 250g, but I'll make em' count. ;)
GB ill wait to ask How u feel until saturday afternoon!
Wat r ur workouts gonna look like the next 3 days?
Gbrice,i got 1 question,I'm on a cutting diet atm,and since i still go to school there is no good source of food nearby,so i usually carry 1 apple to eat while i'm in school,other parts of my diet are as good as they can be,except that part,i got no idea what else i could carry since i don't have that much money to eat chicken breast or other high quality meat in that time(parents are having trouble with holding up ,as plenty of money goes for my nutrition, i eat very clean in 4 out of 5 meals),i did notice nice progress in this 1 month , but i'm worried..will that apple(i know i shouldn't eat suggars) really slow my progress down?(I'm hoping in a week or two i can buy a protein powder so i can put some oats in it and have that as a meal while in school - i hope it will be better?).
lol! But ask again Sunday and i'll be on cloud 9. Already planning a nice big breakfast... oats, banana, toast, eggs, canadian bacon, etc. Also getting 2 trays of sushi from Wegman's... gonna be awesome! :)
I'll log today's workout in a few mins, as for tomorrow, you'll have to wait and see (although I detailed my first 2 week's workouts in a previous post). ;)
I really can't give you an informed answer without knowing your stats, goals, training history, etc.
Having said that - I don't think an apple will do anything, good or bad. If you can't eat during that time, then don't worry about it. Just have fewer larger meals when you *can* eat. Make dieting work for you. You don't have to alter your life to diet.
DAMN I wish there was a Wegmans where I live... Best market ever!
1st day of carb depletion... obviously no physiological effects yet, but I had a very lackluster workout nevertheless.
Day 4: Chest & Back
Flat Dumbbell Press: 4x12
Set 1: 115lbs x 11
Set 2: 105lbs x 8
Set 3: 90lbs x 12 (as you can see, I was unable to hit my target rep goal so had to make a pretty drastic reduction)
Set 4: 90lbs x 12 (yea, 90lbs might have been TOO drastic a reduction. It went up like butter both sets! ;) )
Incline Fly: 4x6
Sets 1-4: 60lbs x 6
Deadlift: 4x6
Had to skip this. My legs are DESTROYED from Tuesday's workout. There was no way I would have been able to push through heavy deads (was planning 395lbs). Hopefully by next week i'll be a little more adjusted to high volume and can hit these. I may do em' tomorrow if a) I'm feeling more recovered, and b) I have time)
T-Bar Row: 4x8-15
Set 1: 115lbs (plus negligible weight of bar) x 15
Set 2: 115lbs x 12
Set 3: 115lbs x 12
Set 4: 115lbs x 9
Close Grip Chins (palms touching): 4 x failure
Set 1: 10 reps
Set 2: 8 reps
Set 3: 7 reps
Set 4: 5 reps
Out of time once again... only 30 mins of cardio. GOTTA shorten these workouts by making them more efficient. It's a goal which can only make me better!!
u should over time be able to get them done as u get in better shape! if u could do it all the first time would it really be worth doing? :) (BTW i know u know both of these statements to be true already, just trying to be supportive ;))
Definitely, and you know I always appreciate the support. The time it takes to complete a workout is one of those factors that, when improved, will increase the intensity of a workout. People are always worrying about 'beating their last weight' at every workout, but the fact is that's unrealistic beyond being a newb. For instance, I repped 115lb dumbbells for 11 today. Next week I MIGHT get 12. Over the course of several weeks though, I doubt I'd be putting it up for 20 reps, or alternatively, putting up 125lbs for 11. What I CAN do is force shorter rest periods between sets, and/or try for faster reps (with proper form) - both of which are on par with adding weight/reps to a set, IMO.
I disagree!!! :D
i know it is only 4 days in but nice to see you sticking with the workouts.
i need a good swift kick in the arse over here!
Hahaha!Quote:

Feel the burn! Muahahha.
No but really though, enjoy those eggs!
I need some motivation today, so I started from the beginning. Thanks for sharing this with us Gbrice! I can sooooo relate to you feeling hungry. Keep doing the great job! I look forward to following along :)
You make me want to do better on my diet :)
Yep, quite a while ago actually. I thought we talked about it!?! :scratch:Quote:

Since I don't have any 'before' pics posted, I figured I'd at least post up my most recent pics (not ideal, just taken while in the gym) to give you an idea of where I'm at. These are from a month or two ago, but i'm pretty much in the same shape right now. I promise I'll post up 'proper' pics soon! :)
morning pal.. its a glorious day! :)
It is? It's cold and snowing here, I almost got into an accident with a tractor trailer this morning, and I'm fcking starving, adjusting to a negative energy balance, and still have today and tomorrow to get through with NO carbs!!
lol.... morning' to you to pal! ;)
