See its hard to eat everything that i’m suppose to cuz i have to eat at the student center. So my options are limited. Can someone tell me specifically what i’m doing wrong? I can lay out what I eat everyday because its basically the same thing at the same time i just need some advice. thanks!

I want to loose this extra weight so i started doing a little more cardio and cutting back on my eating just a tad. I’m loosing weight but i feel like and i think look like i’m loosing muscle to. How the hell am I suppose to loose the fat without loosing the muscle? This happens every single time i try!

I did shoulders today. I am having the hardest time building them up. I can hardly do 35lbs on DB shoulder press and on lateral raises i’m at 17 1/2 pounds and same with front raises. Rear delts…. well i’ll keep that to myself. I just can’t build that muscle. Any suggestions? They are so stubborn!

So life in general… well not my best week at all. We had to put my cat down today. That was a real low blow and I have to have class from 9-5 tomorrow and 9-5 sunday and the same next weekend. It really sucks. I just want these next few months to be over with.

So I used to have depression and it still comes up everyone now and again. It spawns from my body image issues. I know, this is a common problem but when an individual has it, that person does not take it lightly. I have severe problems with body image and I would like some help to lessen it. The more I like my body and see improvements the better. I just need help with the mental part first to have the motivation level to succeed more in this sport. Any suggestions? Its startin to get to be again

i did chest today. it amazes me how weak my incline is compared to my flat. On DB chest press I am up to 45s on each side. I did that, then flys, then moved to Incline Bench. Here I can hardly get 12 with 65 pounds but on regular bench I can get 12 easily with 110 pounds. I dunno. And it seems to not be going anywhere. Its just annoying. Then I did Incline flys. It was a easy day. Chest is fun:) Then I did some sprints and 15 min on the elliptical:) Have a great day everyone!

I love Mondays… back is my favorite to work. I did pull ups, bar rows, bar rows with a different grip, Pull downs, Low row machine and lower back machine. I was going up in weights for a bout a month really really fast and now i’m slowin down… I used to get really upset about it but I found out that it happens a lot. This is the time where you gotta keep going and not get discouraged. Can’t give up. If you did all the hard work would go down the drain. So I’m in a tight spot. My friend wants me to go to Florida with her over the summer for a week or so. I want to go but there will be no gym. Can someone who works out everyday basically go from all out to nothing at all? Has anyone else experienced that? How did you overcome it so you didn’t go absolutly crazy?

All I have time to write today is ABS JUST SUCK. Thats all. Maybe if I had a six pack my mind set would be totally different. Doing them again and again and not seeing results is a downer. But I know it’s my fault. DIET DIET DIET!

Sounds weird doesn’t it? But its what a lot of people stuggle with. I have a problem as well. I have had body issues my whole life nad it has been a threat to my life for some years now. I am better but I have problems with eating late at night. During the day i’m perfectly fine. But late at night it gets bad and its not like I eat bad foods, it eat healthy foods but lots of them. Any more suggestions? Can anyone relate? It would be nice to know i’m not alone. Overdosing on healthy foods, I have never heard of it.

So just to switch it up today I got this healthy pizza recipe out of a magazine. it has whole wheat crust, low fat mozerrella cheese i dunno how to spell that, pesto, corn, chicken, and portabella mushrooms on it and it was so good. It only has 350 cals for two slices and 10 grames of fat and 30 grams of protein and its lower carbs so it can be eaten later in the day. It was so good! And I can not cook so I was very proud of myself. But here’s the question…. how in the hell can you make spinach taste good? Any suggestions?

So today was shoulders and abs well did not happen. I’ll save them for tomorrow. I usually take sundays completly off but I did not ahve the motivation to do abs today. I did 35 lbs on DB shoulder press then on db side I had 17 1/2 lbs, front raises 17 1/2 lbs, db single rear delt just 5 lbs. My shoulders like to slip out of place on me. It really sucks and it affects a lot of my exercises on shoulders and chest. Then I used the ez curl bar and put just 20 lbs on it and worked out my traps. Twenty min on the stupid stairstepper and some step ups. An hour and half today. Not to bad. I have a problem with talking to people when i’m finished working out. It’s an issue not only because it wastes time, but since I lift then do some cardio, when i’m done… i really should be done and headed home to get some food. Oh well, it’s fun and makes me love going in there! Gotta go, tons of work to get done today befor everyone comes over for a movie night:)
