Mrs.S’s BodyBlog

I started doing the low carb thing and then on the weekends doing a carb load it has really helped for me to get started with my weight loss!!!!
I have been going to the gym about 3 days a week that all i can really do with my knee. a lot of uppper body and then some glutes and some leg stuff "like i said i get only a 15 deg bend and my knee pops out so only small stuff!
and i hit cardio after like 30 min on elliptical.
i feel great.
i did go get another tattoo behind my ear kinda on my neck. Two stars i am obsessed with stars!
I am trying to plan out my next surgery, i am really trying to prepare mentally and physically. screws and blots it really is going to be a ruff surgery.
I need to do it soon!!!!! the pain in my knee after just a day with the kids and doing bs stuff is killer.
A.

Had to say no to the diet my friend gave me did not flow very well in my mind. So i got back on here read up on everything i have been missing and i and feeling good and ready to get started on my new goal i set a goal of 170 did not put anything else in my mind as far as training just to get my weight down so i can feel good and get my energy flowing again at this point.
My knee is still very much an issue at this point i ca still only get a 15 deg bend out of it and surgery right now is not even a thought i can entertain. So i just cant do lunges and squats???? Whatever i can do about 30-35 min of cardio before it really starts hurting. And i can still dead lift witch is something i love to do so i will figure out a way to get what i need in post surgery just kill it on the legs to get them up to par.

I feel good, and being back on here not feeling bad about my knee issues makes me feel better!
hopefully i can keep my motivation high & keep on track.
Hers to new beginnings ppl.
peace, love and happy lifting woooo hoooo

Okay so i have had my knee surgery(not fun by the would not suggest 2 have). They did a lat. release on my outer knee and cleaned all inside i had chips of my knee every where the doc said and the grove that your knee would normally set in was flat so they had to carve me a new one(fun) Then my fat pad that you have in your knee for protection was lose so he had to take that out. He explained to my husband that every time i bent my knee it was like him biting his tongue. So yes the pain sucked before surgery. Now post op. hummm therapy is hard, i had the surgery on Jan 14 and i still can not walk with a limp. And i am dieing to get to the gym. But i know i miss something up if i go there and even try to hit back or any upper body . I am trying to remain so positive just preparing for when i get back to the gym( with my new knee). I am so happy that i will be able to exercises with out pain. Mentally knee surgery has been so hard you go from leg pressing over 170lbs to not even being able to lift you leg of the table. It really messed with me bad!

The kids have been amazing threw everything, also my hubby has been doing my job as mom and working two jobs in his spare time lol. Crasy he said i know you did alot but holy shit this is crasy i just wanna sit down lol. Healing and preparing is the name of the game right now. My meals have not been great but i have been trying. When in pain i just crave good food. i just want to get back up and running and tehn i will adjust where i need it.

My birthday is on the 21st and my goal is to be in my high heals by then(we will c)

Well i have had to cancel my gym memebership due to a slip and fall. I walked in to a store and they had a puddle of water that they had not cleaned up, and also they did not have any signs advising people of the water. Needless to say i slipped and dislocating my knee. I have had this issue in the past, but I have been working extra hard on my legs to help with my knee problems. This time i really f**ked it up bad. So there is no sense in keeping a gym memebership right now when i can not go in. A friends mother works at a law firm that has taken on my case. And now i am going to see one if the best knee doc’s here in my city so i can’t wait for that. I am just really hope i can get all my issues with my knee taken care of  so i can get back on the grind. My weight has gone back up I just seem to be out of control again. I am just trying to stay positive about what is going on right now.

Uggghh I am just sooo frustrated and ready for this time to pass! I miss my second home so bad(gym). When i left the manager gave me two shirts and and note saying i could come back on at my same rate when i am ready to. She said everyone was going to miss me . Only if she knew how much i really wanted to go tell the free weight and all the machines that i loved them and i would be back lol. God i feel bad for my husband who has to deal with me while i can’t go! Come on we all know how we get when we don’t get to go. He is such an amazing guy, he had to all the daily house work, take care of 3 kids, and work 2 jobs damn i am lucky. Never did he complain not once!!!!

Anyways just wanted to post what has been going on here.

My doc’s app is on Tuesday I will find out if there will be surgery needed or not.

I can not even remember the last time i was on here. I have been so busy with my kids and home that i do not even have time anymore to post and write everyone. Everything is good still going to the gym when i can, when i am not busy dealing with sick kids or there school stuff. diet is okay not the best but it is what it is. I have kinda stepped back on lifting so much with my layer of fat i have on my body now I am really starting to look bulky yeah yeah diet is key to change that so i have been trying to up my cardio & really watch what i am eating. Things are good i am in my own little grove that works for me so i am in a really good place now!

Okay so i have been going to the gym in the time i have not been posting on here. Things are good in the gym good gains and i push myself hard. Diet is on agian off agian i am so busy all the time that sometimes i just pick up things and eat them lol. But i have been able to keep my weight with in reason. Now i am not any where near where i want to be but i have been able to maintain. Now i trained recently with a trainer that said i just need to pick a contest and send my money away. UMMMM No, he had had trained my husband and I some time ago and was in shocked about how much I am lifting now. But I know that i can lift alot that is nothing new to me. I have everything in line to have an amazing body, i do not have to pay anyone to tell me what to do i know how to get to where i need to be. I just need to be acountable to what i am placing in my body, Crap food, drinks, you know the good stuff!

Okay so training 6 days a week 5 days cardio & 3 days weight traning added to the cardio. On the weight training days i will do 20 min cardio non training days it will be 1 hour. Yes i am aware that some ppl do not agree with the cardio for 1 hour but hello i will not be doing it for ever just while i am in the phase of geting leaner. I do full body work outs for now just so i can burn a greater amount of cals during my workouts.

Cals i will stay around 2000. Maybe more i might need more to help keep my energy up for all the cardio. I will have to gage it as I go

Suplements- Now i do take SP250 before weight training and that is about it.                  For 1 week now I have been taking Xpel water pills i will take them for anouther week and then I will not take them agian for 3-4 months Yes they work but you have to be drinking the water your body needs everyday. I take vit everyday at night so i dont pee them out. Water intake is about 11/2 gallons i want to be at 2 very soon but damn that is alot of water uggghhh. I hope i can get this done.

No time to lose at this point i have reach my goals.

 

 

With the new workout plan i have, I am doing great. My gains i know are up, my legs are looking good and my hamstrings are comming along i am really trying to work on them just to help my knee get even more stable so maybe i can start running. But that is along way away(my knee pops out of socket when i run every time).

Now this time around i am not getting on that damn scale. That thing is the down fall of my goals! My diet can be tweaked a bit. I am not always on point. I am thinking about getting hooked up with a nutrition coach. Not that i dont know how to eat but i just need that extra push in that area. I did really good on training sholders this week one of the trainers at my gym asked me to train with her so we hit sholders for a hour and a half. My sholders needed a good work out. Now is it better to train traps on a sholder day or on a back day?

I have an issue of over doing things. Now with some things this is good but with working out we all know that this is bad you goals will suffer greatly from this. For me i have to over do it when i go to the gym always and for the first couple of months you get to see amazing results and you get so addicted to it you push your self hard everytime. Foe me this is not good i made a plan with a new workout and when i layed it out for my husband with all the bodyparts for what days you know the whole thing reps sets rest time. It looked amazing i only posted on here what body parts were going to be  on what days. But I have it all writen up. I lost it for all last week i really stuck to it but this week i went right back to ****ing hitting the weights crazy like screw the whole this body part on the day thing. Cardio uhhh i did that but have slacked off now.

When i really sit back and look at what I’m doing in the gym, I feel like i am so scared to get out there on the bench press and do other exercise that i may need to be in front of others. It is so hard for me! I went from a 118lb woman to a mother of three at 280lbs. Yes I have worked hard and have gotten myself down to about 178 now but i have no self conf. it is gone poof out the window. **** this sucks i really just put this way out there. When ppl meet me they would never think i have this issue its a front. Damn it i wish i could just get out there on the gym floor and just rock it out and feel amazing. Not like damn do i look stupied or am i to fat to even be trying this move. Yep i have a lot of work ahead of me i know. I really just had to get that off my chest.

And I dont want a personal trainer then it is like it is not me time. It would become a must do and not just i need some me time right now thing. I love the gym it is my second home. But sadly i am faced with the thought i will never make good gains just working on machs where it is safe. I am an amazing mother and wife and i can build them up so high and they know that i am there #1 supporter, but i can not be that for myself(SAD).
