Hello All,
I'm just stopping in to give you status update. Currently, I am reassessing my goals and deciding what works and what doesnt based on my past exercise history. I have decided for the next month or two to focus more on resistance training, however, I will still complete at least 4 cardiovascular workouts per week (spinning/running/Arch Trainer). I will complete a strength training routine for each major muscle group at least twice per week and follow a split training system. Although I will be watch what I eat closely, I will not be as harsh on myself as I have been in the past. The goal is not to make to 125 but to get back to 130 and tone from there. I will start posting food tomorrow.
Yes, the name of this blog has changed. My previous goal was to lodge myself into magazines such as Flex and Muscle Fitness HERS. I may still do that, but right now I am focusing on reaching my goal weight and finally finding the six pack that lives within. Follow me...

Well All,
Let's say I have been chillin since Friday. Not over eating not under eating..just chillin. I did workout Friday morning and played basketball in the evening. I did not, however, workout over the weekend. Let me at least tell you what I ate today:
B-wheat bread with pnb
S-wheat crackers with hummus
L-salad
D-580 cal mini pizza
Well, I could have gone with broccoli and sardines and not had the pizza but it has been sitting in the freezer forever and I didn't want it to go bad (are you buying that?). I think the comments related to me turning into a crackhead and "Your legs look like toothpicks" are going to my head. Quick someone tell me I'm getting pudgy.

Tuesday:
B-yogurt
S-pnb, wheat crackers
L-brown rice, broccoli, grilled chicken (Yummy)
D-chicken pattie, broccoli
S-wheat crackers/pnb, plain vanilla ice cream (Mickey Ds)
Exercise: Kick Circuit, Upper Body Weights
Wts: Assisted Pull-Ups, Chest Fly Machine, Tricep Extensions, Shoulder Press Machine, Bicep Curls (3 sets)
Comments: Not bad. Getting back into the swing of things. I actually enjoyed my lifting workout. Felt powerful and strong. Blame the ice cream on PMS but I think I made a reasonable choice (no chocolate syrup on it). The plan for Wednesday is 45 min jog, lower body, 45 Arch Trainer.

So, I have 21 days (3 weeks) left until pictures are due. At this point, what could I do:
1) I could lose 2lbs a week, which would equate to 6 lbs lost and 8lbs over all.
2) I could lose 3lbs a week, which would equate to 9lbs lost and 12lbs over all.
3) I could be lazy and do nothing at all, which would include not sending in pics at all.
Ummm....
I think I will go with option number to and get as close as I can. Now how will I do it:
1) Cardio 5 days a week (90 min). I can do it all at once or in 2 sessions. This is how I lost weight the last time mixing in strength training
2)Total Body Strength Training Monday, Wednesday, Friday. Lifting heavy but not focusing on just one muscle group.
3) I wont stick to the eating program exactly but will modify it. More veggies, less carbs, more protein and water, NO ADDED SUGAR!!
Alright! Here I go. I will need some cheerleaders for this one! Off to do some cardio.
