My hard earned MUSCLE is fading away!!!! I’m trying to get as much protein as possible  at each meal but it’s so hard!! Is their a supplement out there that helps keep muscle and burn fat instead? CLA or BCAA?? I’m not sure but if someone has info on how I can keep my mucle and burn fat instead I would appreciate your help! Thank you!!!

Today is LEGGY day and I can’t wait.

So This boy made me mad yesterday at the gym. Let me just get this off my chest.

This shouldn’t bother me at all but it did.

ok.. I’ll just let ya’ll know that I don’t ever go out partying, drink, clubs bars, whatever…it’s just something I don’t care for. And most guys my age do this so they think I’m a hermit because I don’t like going out. Well ok maybe I am a hermit sometimes and I like going to bed early and I just love being at home… haha whatver I don’t think it’s a bad thing. ANYWAY.. This guy, he recently moved to the area and I talked to him a little bit on myspace just wecloming him to my town! Well I saw him at the gym for the first time and talked to him a little before I left just asking how he was and he told me he had stayed at the club till 4 in the morning and guessed I hadn’t done anything (so what?) geeez and then he was like…"you already leaving you’ve only been here for 30 mins." (hour, punk!) he was then bragging how he had been there for 2 1/2 hours! goooood for you!!! ohh gah I don’t know guys are just jerks. haha That’s probably the reason I don’t go out.

i was expecting a better conversation…

I’m ok it just really got to me yesterday, and I was stressed from it! I’ll find a nice man one day. Just a genuine good guy. I know it.

Ok I’m going to the gym now!! I can’t wait.

Gosh I’ve been slacking! Dang Easter set me back a week… I got sick from jelly bellies I know I did. Becasue I NEVER eat sugar like that and I ate a friggin’ handful on Easter. Along with Banana Pudding and who KNOWS WHAT ELSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahaqhah I know it’s notttttttttttt funny but I was feeling pretty awful about it.

Soooo now I am starting strong again. I realized how baddd I want this and how much dedication and determination it REALLY takes. Geex I did know realize how great I feel when I eat clean! I love it. I miss it. It’s hard to start all over again. But it’s sooo worth it, I know.

I’ve been avoiding bb.com! Can you believe it?! All my motivation AND encouragement! Thanks for checking in on me! I love yall!

I can’t wait until Monday to work my legs as hard as I can. I’ll be sqauting 140lbs. YES I can’t WAIT to feel the burnnn.

I watched this show called "I can Make you Thin" and it’s really helped me. It teaches you not to eat out of anger or stress and challenges you to chew slowly and mindfully and to STOP when you feel full. I like how it works my mind ondealing with stress rather than eating… BUTTT… I’m afraid I won’t get all the protein I need to build muscle. I’ll make sure of it though.

After Easter I felt so fat. I felt like my butt was huge. hahah but I’m taking control. I can’t let a little Easter indulgence get out of hand. I am starting fresh, no more cheating mindlessly. No more random candies or tastes of new shakes at Sonic. All these things stand in the way of my ultimate dream to become shredded and buff.

Tanning. I need a tan. But I LOVE my skin. I don’t want skin cancer. And Amanda, there is a solution! Self tannner. I good self tanner. Happy times.

I’m so happy I’m back. I’m so happy I’m back on track, back on here, back into healthy eating. I’m so happy.

I can’t wait for another day! Thank you everyone who is my friend and wants me to get better!! THANK YOU

I’m feeling wonderful today so I decided a happy post is appropriate!

I’m feeling really good about my workouts, and I’m learning to balance sleep and work. I feel so much better!

A good night’s sleep is always a top priority. Before working out, and before anything else. Next three days are going to be long and tough at work but I’m ready for it. I’m going to make sure I get plenty of rest, food and stress relief anytime I can. Meditation and breathing really helps!

I’m making gains in my progress again, and a happy spirit always fuels it. I’m really happy with my legs from the past few days! When I slim up a bit, the shape really stands out and I’ve never had legs like this before. I love them! hahah I’m so happy!

Ok well it’s time to do a little homework, hope everyone had a great workout today! Keep it up!!

Crawfish boil! WOO HOO

Chest and Triceps today at 3! hooooray~ I love working out, it makes me a happy girl!! I’m going to kill my triceps today. Poor things.

hehehe I think I’ll do cardio today.

OHHHHHHH yeahhh baby. BURN THAT FATTTTTTTTT!

I’ll go at 3 so I can watch Dr. PHIL.

I love coffee.

I’m about to hit the gym, after my morning coffee. Back and Bi’s, baby.

I have a problem. Everynight I get up and eat in the middle of the night. and I barely remember it the next morning. Just the evidence reminds me in the morning. I usually eat peanut butter, but I’ve been reminding my dad to put the lid on real tight before bed haha it works, but then I just go to the frezzer and get the low carb ice cream. what the heck this is ruining my life!!!!! hahaha jk but I tell myslef everynight before I go to sleep. DONT GET UP blah blah.. doesn’t work. It’s been a problem for a while.

I know if I say no just one night! I will feel great about myself and want to feel that again. But it’s that first time that is hard. The only thing that had worked is if I physically lock my cabinets and fridge with that plastic tie stuff? but my dad got pretty mad about that. haha at least I’m not eating carbs.

Well.. we’ll see how tonight goes!!ugg. Maybe if I put a sticker on the ice cream I’ll remind myself to drink water and go to bed. I wish wish wish I could. I want it so bad. I need an outside point of view. My mind is tired~! JUST DON’T DO IT, Amanda~!

I had an awesome leg day, I did sqauts with 125 lbs on the Smith machine!! wooahhh. and I did deadlifts with 50 lbs on the EZ bar! heck yeah! and 70lbs on the seated calf raises! dang! MOVIN on up!! hahaha I’m very excited about this week because I’ve been sleeping good (thanks to Lunesta~) and I know I’m going to have plenty of high powered energy to BURNNNN!

I’m REALLY excited about Wed (back) because I’m going to lift 30lb dumbbells for one armed rows. Those are my favorite back exercises. LOVE EM!! oo I got to go to schoool I’m going to be LATE!!!

PEACE -Amanda

ANYONE! If I have a job, in which I walk/run my butt off (carhopping at Sonic), NON-STOP, 6-8 hours a day, how am I supposed to have enough energy to POWER through a good workout afterwards!?

This is frustrating. I cannot seem to find the right balance between working out and work!!!! Of course, the balance begins with what work does to me, and whatever strength I have left, I put into a workout…the best I can. Then EARLY (5am) the next morning, wake up and run again AT WORK until I cry from stress overload and still haven’t even lifted a single weight!!

THEN, I can’t sleep because I did not work out that day. (you know you sleep better when you workout) and it starts all over again, WITH NO SLEEP!!!!

GEEZ, am I supposed to work myslef to death? Obviously not, but I would love to exercise as hard as I work. I just wish I had more energy to workout everyday.

Maybe if I do light cardio after work on the days when I feel I have no energy, it will somehow give me more? I’ll try that.

ANY help? suggestions? advice, therapy? hehahaha I’m ok really, I just didn’t workout this week. But today is Sunday and I’m off, so I’m going to do shoulders bi’s and tri’s! and cardio. I can’t wait until the gym opens… at 12 noon. what the crap! hahah I wish it opened earlier. THANKS!
