    You'll be fine once you build up slowly to help yourself as best as possible espeically if you have recurring or old injuries. It is tough but keep the head up and you will get there in time.

    Hit macros and increased water yesterday. Weight is down. And then life bites gonna have to take it easy for a week. I figure a week off of lifting, have to modify cardio so don't open some unplanned sutures. Diet has to be tight.
    That's too bad. So soon. Don't fret. Do what you can.

    last time i weighed myself, over a month ago, i was down to 210. some would say, outside this board, that I'm looking good. real thin waist (my 36 waist pants feel real baggy at the belt line). but in here, we all know that represents alot of lost effort. In fact, i suspect, if i had a scale, that i'm under 210. alot of this weight loss was due to illness, and i'll be damned how difficult to get the weight back.

    thought i'd check in.

    how have you been?

    you guys miss me?

    Actually, I was just thinking about you 2nite...honestly. I saw your new accommodations and was wondering if there are any females working there. Seems like it would be "delicate" for a female to be holed up with a bunch of men for 3 years.

    I didn't realize you were THAT sick. I have no problem gaining weight...it's losing in the spots I want and gaining in the other spots. I know....picky picky picky. Stay well!!!

    My immediate focus is consistency in diet, H20 and training.

    I will post weekly progress / stat updates as well as major mods to diet, training, supplements. My starting point is 1400 cal; 158 g p/105 g c/ 39 g f. Cardio 4x per week. Weight Training 3x weekly.
    Week 1 Results
    Achieved Macros/Water: 6 of 7 days
    Training: 1 Weight/4 Cardio sessions (weight training unplanned hold for another week)
    Measurements: less in upr thighs/above knee/calves; all others unchanged
    Weight: Down 3 glorious pounds
    Notes: Need more food prior to late evening workout sessions. Less hungry when drinking H20 throughout the day. Carb cravings POST evening workout days

    Week 2 Plan
    Macros unchanged - 1400 cal; 158 g p/105 g c/ 39 g f.
    Cardio 4x per week
    START Austinite OTC Fast Loss Stack prior to workouts

    Glad I didn't delay another moment to start this log!

    Nice first week - even with the setback.
    Keep your focus and think about the changes to come

    Yes and this isn't for those weak in the knees...there are temptations EVERYWHERE. Hoping the Austinite stack steals my sweet tooth!

    Thank you!!! This weekend is going to be rough...Halloween parties are always fun but not diet friendly. Food should be ok; haven't had a good wine buzz in months....could be trouble...I will just have to add another cardio b4 and maybe even after. Not the best way...but a way.

    Hey GGR just wanted to check in and say good luck, keep on top of the diet whether you have to decrease training from time to time and the changes will come, stray away from the diet and it does not matter how much cardio you do you will gain..IMHO

    Thx Bass! Appreciate your support! I just started the stack and notice a difference. True test is tomorrow......normally eat every carb in sight after the late workout...I have notices a difference. Just don't seem to think about the carbs in the evening. I have high hopes for this stack!

    FFM, thanks for stopping by. I expect to have a few setbacks or learning opportunities, food wise...like this weekend. I know I can't possibly workout enuff to create the deficit, but it makes me feel better that I try to make amends so I jumped on the stair master and it made me feel better that I burned 600 calories.

    You are right...don't have to deal with something that didn't happen! Wish I had seen this B4 I enjoyed Friday and Saturday night but I am hoping to report double digit losses by Thanksgiving.

    Oh. Now I did not see that. I thought it was going to be a chocolate cake with white buttercream icing and maybe some pink roses. I see him as a traditional cake ordering type of guy! LoL.

    Week 2 Results

    Not my best showing.

    Achieved Macros/Water: 2 of 7
    Training: 0 Weight/3 Cardio sessions
    Measurements: I didn't bother
    Weight: unchanged from last week
    Notes: Not going to make any progress when not dedicated...duh. I make bad food choices when I am fatigued.

    Week 3 Plan
    same macros - 1400 cal; 158 g p/105 g c/ 39 g f.
    Cardio 4x per week/ Weight training 2x and Continue Austinite OTC Fast Loss Stack prior to workouts
    Need to adjust meal timing on late start shift days. Need to get more rest.

    Goal is to hit every macro/every day for one week and I do expect to report a loss for next week

    Even if it's an off day, just do what you can. Every effort leads to your final result/goal.

    Nice log Girly! Looking forward to seeing you reach your goals!

    Thx T. I have learned quite a bit in the past 3 years. Even today, how much more I understand nutrition and how my body responds. It's all good. I am a bit impatient. : /

    Nice Al. Do you like her music? I have her on my play list...alot! And yes I have been avoiding my update for week 3 but Al is onto me.......ITs not the best news and could be worst.

    No Change - Not even an ounce. I would be more disappointed then last week, but I am not for 3 reasons.
    1. The scale is not an accurate indicator of body composition change. Muscle weights more then fat so even tho my weight was unchanged, I suspect I have put on some muscle. Fat also occupies more space and seem my clothes are baggy in the butt/thighs. My booty has gotten smaller so there is no way I have gained fat.
    2. I noticed some definition in my arms and legs and back that I didn't have 3 weeks past!
    3. Several ppl asking if I have lost weight and today, the gay guy in my office say, "G Friend" are you losing weight? I said I am trying but the scale doesn't think so. He says, G friend, you ARE looking thinner. I ask where, He has me turn with my back side towards him and touches the spot between my waist line top of the gluts and says....right HERE!

    I did pirouettes down the aisle all the way to my office. That man has never made me feel so good!!! Just try to beat that! HA!

    I hit my macros 5 of 7 days but failed on the 2 days I start late and work out later so I am going to address this by tweaking meal times.

    Week 4 Plan
    same macros - 1400 cal; 158 g p/105 g c/ 39 g f.
    Cardio 4x per week/ Weight training 3x and Continue Austinite OTC Fast Loss Stack.

    If you would pirouetted by my office I would have gave ya a lil booty smack!

    Like I said before, you've done it in the past, I had no worries!

    Don't worry about that pesky scale if others are seeing it and you are feeling it!

    Happy for ya!

    That's awesome GGR!
    F the scale - you know that's the truth. It's hard for me too, though, to be honest.
    But pay attention to what you see in the mirror...and always count on your friends!
