TEAM SKINNY 03/01/08 (March Madness) (Page 13)

Comet:

well I won't give up either... I have faith in you. So how do we close the gap (+3 lbs)?

And I wanted to be the first: Abbier-->>> Happy Birthday to you!.... Happy Birthday to you!... I won't finish I hate singing in public.

well i know what i HAVE to do,it is just a matter of ME doing it. i believe my diet is on track (mostly), but if you have looked at my logs lately i have done pretty much nothing. i did however go for a walk today, 4 miles in an hour and 10 minutes. but now i have a blister on my right foot. new hiking shoes and crappy socks are to blame. bike ride tomorrow.

and most of all i need to come up with a full body lifting routine, that i will do every third day. ideas?

ok, this week's weight: 277.4 (same as last week) weight went up then down, then levelled out again. I'm fine with this though, It's better than going up :-P

happy birthday dear abbier, happy birthday to you (slightly off key) :-)

hope you have a great day

Late to post weight 158 up 1 lb - did I mention that I was trying to loose weight Have company here all week - its really messing me up. Will try harder this week.

Pushups, situps, sprint drills, calf raises, lunges/squats, if you have dumbells--> throw some biceps or triceps and some back exercises (latissimus or for shoulder and upper neck/back) (for trapezius, or anterior/posterior/medial deltoids), shrugs. You could even use 1 gallon milk jugs filled with water if you don't have free weights. Filled with sand their even heavier.

happy birthday abbie

Happy Birthday Abbie!!! Have a good one!!!!

Does this make us lemmings?

I've always wanted to try those belly dancing shows...thanks for reminding me.

Good job Trey,  I see a 199 in your future.

Only in a good way Enders.  I would only lead you to a path of light.

Hey, now - be nice to Comet.

Happy Birthday Abbie!

He's just jealous because I won all that money.  The sacred E-mail told me so.

And welcome, new Folk!

I've been quiet 'cause work kinda sucked the last two weeks, but now I'm back - mostly to hassle Saling & defend Comet's honor.

No, really, Saling - I only tease ya 'cause I like you - just like the little boys that my daughter chases around the playground.

Why is it always me that gets picked on?  Woe is me!!  Woe is me!!

I think I had a wee success last night. I came back from work and I found a whole box (about 300g or so ) of my favourite cookies: Digestives with chocolate. Normally I 'd eat all the cookies followed by dinner but last night I had only 4 and then I didn't even finish my dinner. Ok I only left a small bit on the plate but I think it's good already. Also when I was opening the cookies I didn't really want them - it was more like the habit: these are your favourite ones you have to eat them. And after the last cookie I thought that they didn't taste as good as I remembered- could that mean I'm nearly free from my chococholism???

Also one good thing came out of me being so sick at the wedding last weekend: I didin't smoke!! And I was afraid it could happen- saved by the flu

This is what has happened to body composition since I started losing weight.

weight	BF%	fat lbs	lean lbs
190	0.38	72.2	117.8
150	0.18	27	123

This is what would have to happen if I tried to get to 10% BF and maintain 150

150 .1 15 135

Gaining that much muscle would be the hard part.....whew!!

Ceade:  It happens.  I used to drink Pepsi like water and now I could care less and drink a water instead.  Great job on not smoking,  Saved by the flu.

I haven't posted for a week or so, been on a very flat, never ending plateau, but down this week 1.6 lbs. New weight 246.6 that's a total of 26.4 lbs since October.
