Losing Weight with Starscream

[shilala]

I had Raisin Bran Crunch and worked around the raisins, Tyr. It provides an extra workout.

Two days off work and put on 4 lbs. Guess I overdid the "cheating."
It's coming back off, but I have the kids b'day party this weekend. I'll try to limit myself to one small slice of cake. The good news is I get to fire up a Kristoff Ligero Maduro from my sons b'day box.

I"m doing the Power90 program. It was the predecessor to the P90X program. It's a bit easier to do which is perfect for me since I was primarily a couch potato.

You rang?


Sorry I haven't checked in here for a bit, y'all. I overdosed at an all-you-can-eat seafood buffet down here at the beach today. Crab legs, mussels, oysters Rockafeller, shrimp, cheesecake, and whatever else. I ate at 3pm, and I still feel sick 10 hours later.

Still holding fast at 240 (although I'm probably gonna be up this week).

Just under 1300 calories today

Brkfst: Poached egg w/ tomato slices and multi-grain toast
1st Snack: Greek Yogurt
Lunch: Butter lettuce salad w/ baked salmon, black beans, onions, tomato, cilantro w/ a lime and olive oil dressing
2nd Snack: Banana and a slice of cheddar cheese
Dinner: Grilled chicken kabobs w/ zucchini, eggplant, onion, and bell peppers
3rd Snack: Almonds

Yeah... I'm trying to eat a lot during the day. Its a good thing I average around 18-19hrs awake per day.

Power 90 combines circuit training with both cardio and weights. So one day you do all cardio, the next weights or resistance bands, with intervals of high intensity routines, moving from one to the next with just a couple of breaks after each set. They focus on all of the major body parts. Their is also the ABRipper routines where you do all different types of ab exercises.

I"m just over two weeks in and can see a marked improvement.

sounds like you're eating like a woman tyr! (in amount of calories) You must be 180 lbs soaking wet!


Another lowest number for me on the scale today, woot

As I figured would happen, yesterday's weight was a mid-week dip. Back up to 219.6 this morning. The only thing I can think of it's water weight. Not like I ate a lot yesterday, not more than normal. Plus I got my workout and a 3 mile walk in. I actually find I like walking in the heat. Keeps me loose.

242.9 this morning. That's 30 lbs since I started.

I had a big spike too, Bob. No clue, it must have been the moon or something.

195.2 this morning.
The 90's seem awful slow, but I don't think they really are. I'm starting to obsess. I need to just forget about it like I have from word go.

Same here. I was doing good with staying off the scale, but that didnt' last. As long as I'm maintaining or going down come ever Saturday, then I'll be happy. Even slight rises shouldn't worry me as i know I"m building muscle now.

A fresh mozzarella, tomato and basil salad would be off the charts good right now. That should help you squeeze into your Wonder Woman costume.
