QuanaB — Sat, 12 Jul 2008 06:20:52 +0000

Well Everyone i’m in week 3 of my training, with 17 weeks to go..I’m feeling good and i’m able to get through my workouts without wanting to cry, but it’s still hard.. My legs are tighter, but there still covered with this fat..In the morning when I woke up and I did my morning stretch, i just happenend to run my hand across my quad and i felt how hard it had become and i felt so good..All those damn squats were paying off.. "Asscretes" As my trainer calls them, Ass to concrete when it comes to squats..I really hate that man sometimes, but for 3 weeks i’m happy..I can’t wait until next month to see what i look like..Anyway everyone just updating…love u guys!!!!

hey everyone ,
today is day 3 of my training for my Nov 1st show..All i can say is " calgon take me away". I feel like someone balled me up and stuffed me in a small pickle jar..This experience so far has truely shown me how out of shape I am, and it also shows me that what is the point of not eating clean..I mean i love working out, but gaining 25lbs and have to lose it again, it’s a headache..almost a year of mc.donalds, kfc, all that crap was not worth it..Now i’m in the gym crying..but i will be ok i guess in about a week or so..right now i just want to scream..this will be the last time I ever have to deal with weight loss again..im done..soooooooooooooo done…

Ready Again after the storm

Hey everyone, well i’m back..My life has changed quickly as most people know. After the passing of my husband i decided to move out of ny. I will be going back home to st.thomas to rejuvinate. I will enjoy running on the beach, hiking, and whatever else i can do while enjoying the outdoors of the caribbean. But i will also be in a gym while im there..I will use my time there to get my body back together and meditate and decide whats best for my daughter and I. I just have to pray and believe that i can do this..So my bodyspace family you guys have to keep me motivated..i gained 3 lbs so i’m 158 still not bad.. I was eating like a dog for the last 5 weeks and i have to make up for the slacking off..Thanks everyone for all the loving support..

Ok everyone I have a problem, I decided I wanted to compete for november, there is a contest in New york, I don’t know if thats un-realistic or not, but I want to do it. My problem is I’m currently 5′8 158lbs. Now I have very thick thighs, large hips. what i’m confused about is, I wanted to gain about 10lbs of muscle, but that would put me at 168,where i don’t want to be. my original weight loss goal was 155, before i ever thought about adding some muscle. now that i’m basically there, i’m wondering, do i have to go down to atleast 145, and then add 10lbs so i can be at 155 where i want to be at..I’m not sure exactly how it goes. I weight train 4xs a week, splitting upper and lower. And i still have a substantial amount of bodyfat, actually is 27% and I don’t understand why. So should i be more focused on my body fat percent than anything else? please please help me…thanks.

venting

Hey everyone, I just had to release some anger. I have worked so hard on trying to improve my body, and there is so much negativity that i’m getting..People are like oh your too small, or your borderline anorexic which is stupid as hell, or you can’t be healthy and are you eating enough..Now I do get great compliments from a lot of other people but the negativity part of it, is just getting to me. I have a specific goal, I set for myself. I don’t want to be flabby, I want a beautiful, sculpted body, but people don’t seem to understand that. When i tell people I want muscle they give me this look like i’m crazy or something. I’m 5′8 and 159 from anorexic or crackish. Sometimes people don’t get it, and i guess they never will. My hubby loves it, so I can’t really concern myself with anyone else..Thanks everyone for letting me vent..It’s just one of them days..

Welcome!
