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!

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!

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

[sandigirl06]

Hi, Everyone!!! Well, no I wasn't in Fla all that time. I wish! haha. We had a fantastic time!!! Key West was beautiful and FANTASTIC! We did sooo much. Snorkeled on a coral reef, rented a wave runner, drank, ate and BEACHED!!! Got back last Thurs and went right into the holiday weekend and beached some more right here on the lovely Jersey shore! We are lucky enough to live only 20 minutes from the beach. Resumed work and workouts on Wed. Man, that was tough!! Soooo, while I was away and some time even before I was not really paying attention to diet much. I just got so burnt-out on the food. However, when I got home and back to the gym I was surprised to see I only gained about 2 lbs on the scale!!! I am trying to regain control and doing ok although it's tough and cravings are brutal. Yeah, I give in sometimes....uuugh! Today I did one hour ellip cardio. So now that my hubby is back I have bumped up my hours at work. Yeah, gonna be tough with the workouts but I have to do it. No more lazy mornings on ShapeFit when the kids are off to school. I will try to post in the evening. Well, I hope you are all well, having fun and progressing in your workouts!!!

Good evening!!! Monday...was a long one. Started out with a training session in which we did some weights combos, push-up variations and these crazy sit-ups on the incline bench where my trainer took a resistance band, wrapped it around me under my arms and held it behind me while I did my sit-ups. Think giddy-up! LOL Was very tough!! Then we did kickboxing and I went to work, came home, made dinner and did dishes. Just now sitting down and I am beat tired!!! Today I did pretty good with my food:

4:45 a.m.-protein shake w/water
5:00 a.m.-workout and kickboxing w/trainer
6:15 a.m.-protein shake w/water
7:30 a.m.-omelette
blueberries
10:45 a.m.-2 lf string cheese
1 oz peanuts
1:30 p.m.-1 cup chic broth
steamed shrimp
green beans
4:45 p.m.-2 hardboiled eggs

7:30 p.m.-grilled salmon

Tomorrow will be another long day.....cardio first thing then work. So what are you all up to?? Seems like it's been a bit quiet around here. I hope you are all enjoying good weather and having fun!!!

[sandigirl06]

Hi, everyone.....thanks, Joc! I love palm trees!!! Wish I were under one right NOW! Les, I hope and pray your prediction does not come true. Seeing it for the first time was amazing and I can't wait to get back and see it again.

Sooo, today was pretty good. Had a good training session this morning. We did some combo exercises and treadmill intervals. Food was good too. Pretty much the same as last time I posted....yawn! LOL Gosh, I wish I had something interesting to say but I don't! Writer's block sucks!! LOL Well, I hope you all had a great day!

Good morning, friends! This morning was 45 mins ellip cardio. I am off work but not feeling so good today. My stomach feels queasy and I feel chills. I can't remember the last time I was sick in any way. I think it was about 3 years ago so this is rare for me!! Hopefully it will pass soon. So far today I had a protein smoothie. Sooo, my full-time work schedule is kicking my butt!!! When I get home at night I can barely make dinner and do the dishes I am so tired. Today I have lots to do. Laundry, cleaning, food shopping etc. I guess I better get off this darn computer and get going, huh? I can do this, right?? Show me some love!
