Wow... Sandi... your workout is crazy with a vest & weights... how many sets and reps for the lunges, squats and step-ups?? Carbs are pretty low... Are you aiming for the high protein & fat and Low carb diet?? I read about it... It's for short term tho...

[AnnaCruzDC]

A vest!!! Ooh yea, I want to do that! Keep the great work!!!! You are so motivating!!

Actually I rarely use Pub Med. I could, but I just don't really think about it.

Hi, Friends! Yeah, a weighted vest!! When he told me I was going to wear it I was like.....are you serious??? I did 3 sets of 10 on each exercise. On the lunges was 10 on each leg! Let me tell you I am soooooo sore today!! I can hardly walk. LOL. My foods were pretty much the same today. Nokie, I am trying to go low carb till I leave for my trip in two weeks. I took the kids for ice cream at a local dairy bar and I had the most delicious sugar-free moose tracks ice cream topped with sugar free caramel syrup!! It was so heavenly I wondered how could it be sugar free??? Yeah, I know probrably loaded with fat but hey, a girl's gotta have ice cream with the kids on a beautiful night! This morning I did one hr cardio on elliptical at 5 a.m.. Tomorrow morning is training with my trainer. Ohhhh, I wonder what he has in store for me tomorrow. He just keeps making things harder and harder! Nite-nite, everyone!

[sandigirl06]

You're right, Brent, that's really what I meant. Or should I say better carb timing? Don't wanna stir anyone up!!! Seems to be what is working for a lot of others here, tho. You included!

Yawn....same ole food! I am hungry so gotta go get me a snack. It seemed I was hungry all day no matter what I ate! Maybe it was the workout??? Well, have a good nite, friends. As usual for this time I am exhausted. Sweet dreams!

[Fygle]

it was the workout

[feelin-great]

It seemed I was hungry all day no matter what I ate! Maybe it was the workout???

I get like that the day after a really tough workout - I workout at night so it usually affects me the next day... Counting down the days til Florida, I see

[sandigirl06]

Counting the days indeed, Joc! Oh, how I need this vacation!!! Has been a very long 4 months for me. Yes, i think my hunger yesterday was due to my workout. Those kettlebells are brutal!! Anyone ever workout with them?? Is a different kind of motion you use. More like a swinging or throwing rather than lifting or pushing. Everytime I use them I am VERY sore!! My trainer has informed me that tomorrow will be more of the same. Lucky me......NOT!

[Boss Man]

Where better to holiday than on Sandi Beaches.

Yeah, crap joke I know, but if I hadn't right now, when would I have?

[sandigirl06]

Yeah, Boss crappy but I get that all the time! I live at the beach!!! LOL

[Boss Man]
