Im a potbellied pig
Yes I am. Im back to 126lbs….good and bad, good cus I am still lean, bad because I think its all just food in my belly. Im eating like a horse, maybe 2 horses. I’m still not 100% after being sick, but today was much better and my cough seems to be all upper, not deep chest cough. Couple days and I am good.
Tonight was to be abs, but I have a SLIGHT ISSUE WITH A MUSCLE STRAIN IN ONE UPPER AB DUE TO COUGHING. iT ACTUALLY WENT INTO SPASM AND i GOT A FEW KNOTS A FEW TIMES THIS WEEK. cRAP, hate the location of caps lock on this laptop. And if you see any jumbled letters, its because my lil tiny dog Sophie is jumping in my face. She weighs all of 4 lbs….cute as anything though, cant be mad at her.
Instead I did some forarms and tris and a little back which I abandoned after a few sets of rowing thaT MADE ME COUGH. I did some shoulder presses though. I just didnt want to exert myselkf with anything cardio-like. Not good to be hacking up a lung in the gym. Not alot for tris and forearms though….not a lot of exercises for those kind of muscle groups. Besides that the gym AC was not working or barely working so it was a little steamy in there. Im going to take tomorrow off and go Friday night. Also, going to go back on my sieon because I really need to boost my creatine intake. Its legal and it really does work, my strength will go way up when I start it.
Im sorry if I seem super critical about weight. Im not picking on anyone, its not like I find overweight people offensive or ANYTHING of that nature…….Im just worried for them….. maybe I want to save the world ,make a difference??? I understand food addiction is like any other addiction. But being here means we all want to change and improve ourselves…..its a start, stay with it!!!

The last time I was sick I strained some muscles in my stomach from coughing.It sucks.Please stop criticizing yourself about being hard on people for weight issues.That IS why we are here-to change.If someone misinterprets your voiced opinion, that’s too bad.They have a whole lifetime to get over it.I hope you recover fully quickly!

Nothing wrong with loving what you do…

LOL! You are not a pot-bellied pig and you are not hypercritical. Just post-(traumatic) competition-stress disorder right?
It is so hard to see all the hard-won striations and definition soften and disappear even though we know it really isn’t healthy to stay that way year round. I also think that each time you diet down it is a bit harder to maintain a sense of what’s normal - hah! not that we want to settle for what the rest of the world considers normal but our standards are a tad high, don’t you think? (for the best)
