Well I am super happy, I got my body fat tested and droped 9 lbs and went from 25.3%bf to 21.9.  I am super happy.  I get it checked every 3 months.  All my hard work and diet is paying off.  

My goal is to get to 18-19% body fat by the next time I get it checked.  Maybe then i will get motivated to do my first competition or I can always wait.  One goal at a time seems to work best.  

Today I feel a lot better, I had a good food day yesterday and manage to stay within my numbers.  I also made it to the gym.  I was not planning on it but i got my butt in there.  There was a point in the night I thought I should just stay home.  I looked my self out of my car and it was cold as shit trying to get my keys, of course when I gave up I found my spare and my oldest daughter said, mom you should go to the gym a release that anger…lol…so I manage 30 min of the spinning class and 20 min on the stride.  I also did a little triceps and then went home.  

Below is my food log for the day of yesterday.  Today is leg day and I can’t wait to go to the gym already.  :)

Hello,
Well today I am not posting anything about my work out.  I did go to the gym on friday and saturday I barely made it.  I have been tired and with no energy it seems.  I am trying to stick things out but have been feeling down.  I hate this feeling.  I can’t seem to snap out of it, Ever since friday evening.  It didnt help that I messed up my diet all weekend and I was sick to my stomach.  
I spent most of my day cooking for the week yesterday and I didn’t even feel like it.  I kept thinking to myself, why am I doing this?  I know why, its just seemed like pointless and I was just tired.  8 months spending every single sunday cooking and cooking.  

Sorry, just venting…..

Good monring, afternoon or evening (depending on what part of the world your in) :)

Yesterday was a cardio day only. I went to the gym and did 45 min on the stride machine. Kept my heart rate between 130-150. It felt very long but I did it.

It was also a lower calorie day and I kind of messed it up at the end of the day. I was so hungry during my cardio and right after. I kept sipping on water and more water.

I had my dinner and a hour later I was just hungry and gave in to a granola bar. :(

Anyway, I am happy today is not a low carb day. I am starving. I guess somedays is harder than other.  I try to tune out my stomach and just deal with it.  

I have also been trying to drink more hot green tea and it helps sometimes.

Below is my not all that great food log, but it could have been worst.

Well good morning,
Yesterday was a leg day and I felt a little all over the place.  The gym was super crowded and I hate waiting around, so I did a lot of walking in between sets. I still don’t feel too good about my Romainain dead lift.  I don’t feel them as much in the hamstring area and I always feel like I am donig them wrong.  I have been told i have good from but i don’t feel that burn in my hamstrings.  Any suggetions on this would be helpful.  Comments on my work out will be good too…:)
