Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) (Page 237)

Originally posted by jobaxas . The problem is we have become so insulin resistant with our over consumption of processed grains that now any carb can give us a sugar spike. So if you occasionally want rice be sure to have it with fat like cheese or cream to cut the spike effect

My new position is as an Advertising Consultant with a company called HIBU.  They sell Internet Marketing, Websites, Website Optimization, Direct Mail, ad's in local magazines, web videos, and yellow page ads.  

In the past, I had this exact position with a competitor of this company.  I did VERY well for myself both years that I worked for them.  

I am excited to get back into this line of work.  It is also a virtual position, only requiring me to go to the office once per week for a sales meeting.  

I start 8/12.

GO BRIE!

GO ME! (gulp....I'm all of a sudden super nervous!)

Originally posted by ponderingfox I swam 3600m tonight!  That's the furthest I've swum (swam?) by 400m.  We did 1800m before we hit our main set of a T-30 (swim for 30 min).  I made it 1550m in the 30 min.  And honestly, I felt good the whole time, which really surprised me.  I found the zone where distance doesn't matter, and tried to stay in it.

Maltodextrin is sweet, but many people find it not as sweet / doesn't have that icky sticky sweetness of the simple sugars.

I'm a bone head.  Is this the composition of maltodextrin?  And it's like honey?  Just want to make sure I understand the post. 

I haven't had maltodextrin (that I know of).  It's not sweet?

Nervous is good--works the willies out BEFORE the race

Also, the only thing you need to be nervous about is not strangling the race organizers

You'll be great! Have fun!

I haven't done a tri in 3 years.  I think that's why I'm so nervous.

Remember how I was considering NOT doing this race because of the race organization?  Yeah, I should have stuck with my not doing the race.  Went to packet pickup.  My registration was missing.  Fortunately, I could pull up confirmation on my phone, so I got a number.  But, I don't get a shirt or anything else that I should because I "didn't sign up in time and they might not have enough."  I can check in the morning.  Oh, and they didn't give me the swim cap I'm supposed to wear either.

TOTAL BS!

If I don't get a shirt, they are refunding me and I'm making complaints here.  I'm so tired of them.  I don't even want to do the race any more.

Originally posted by 4agoodlife BOOOOO!!!! So annoying :/ I've been registered for the wrong race and registered as a guy, but not missing completely. Hopefully things improve from here?!?!

The only funny thing about the registration screw up is that I'm #420.

 

And apparently no one got swim caps - we might get them tomorrow.  I assume the RD didn't order them in time.
