Ok Ok Ok, I FINALLY am able to post again. I guess for some odd reason through Mozilla my IP wasn’t liked at goofyguys, so Im back. Anyways, this post is more addressed to Ty and The pirate. CONTEST DUE DATE: August 1st. Lets see how much you 2 ladies have improved. Now, Ty and Jim have done their explaination of the sunrise/sunshine diets, which is great I’m not totally knocking them, but let me give my suggestions that I got from some of the guys at the gym that are….well JACKED! 3 meals a day, BAD. If you can spread your lunch out at work, say eat some of it at 10, 12 and 2, that is fantastic way to reduce the weight. Think of your bodies as machines that you have to constantly feed “coal” to, when the coal supply is low, the machine doesn’t work as well. So, in order to keep your machines working to the best of their abilities, feed it constantly. Let me give you an example of my eating routine. In the morning, my breakfast has been reduced to tea, oj, and health shake w/ wheat toast on occasoin (try to stay away from starches and white bread. Wheat bread is ok) Health shake contents:
Little tricks like this make your “diet” more of your daily eating ritual.
tuna out of a can, YUMMY! (At first this was absolutely terrible, I couldn’t stand it. Experiment with spices, I use lots of black pepper and alittle bit of adobo, and it works fine. I started out with the big cans, and now I’m down to 1 small one. To keep yourself from going insane, “chase” the taste with a yogurt. Do this every other day, at least the first week. Also your mentality of dieting is different at the end of the week then at the begining. For example Monday you would do the tuna, and by friday you would be having taco bell {just an example I hope you dont eat that shit} For me, by Wednesday I can’t take it, and on Friday Im ok to tuna. What I do is tuna on Monday, and then I pick up a whole chicken either from S&S, or a pound of chicken breast and just eat that [not boston market} And for your 10 and 2 meals, cut up a cucumber, eat some carrots, an apple, etc. Just spread your meals out. You also wont have that “Im sleepy” feeling after lunch when you do this too. Dinner, don’t eat past 7. When you get to Friday and the weekend, cheat. Eat what you want, in moderation. After the first 2 weeks of dieting like this, you’ll notice that your eat whatever you want mentality will redue itself without extra effort, the stomach will not like all that greese. Plus you can get drunk for cheaper! The first week do this: Shake first day, and every other day. Do what you do now, every other day. By the second to 3rd week, you should be on shakes alone. And if you have to cheat those first 2 weeks, its ok. Just don’t make cheating the everyday thing.
I know how you feel when you get out of work, I just want to get home and crash. I feel the same way, but get to that gym, do something everyday, even if its only for 20 minutes, I’m sure you can take 20 minutes out of your porn downloading to do a workout. What I do is this: In the morning, its hard for me to get up, so I wake up to STATIC X and SLIPKNOT. I do 300 + crunches/day. This may seem like alot, but it isn’t. Let me break it down for you: When I get up, 100 crunches, 50 top/50 bottom, takes me about 3 minutes. When I get home from work, 50/50, before bed, 50/50. Thats it, and it doesn’t take up to much of my time, infact when I get home and have that “I want to crash” feeling, I do the 50/50, and I’m awake again. It make a HUGE difference when you do this. Hit those weights when you can, it will make it easier, trust me. If you dont know what to do with them, pick up a muscle&fitness magazine, and just look through it they have meals, workout tips, etc. Or if you want to go all out get “The New Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding, Arnold Schwarzenegger – That will definately keep you busy. For aerobics, fuck the tredmill, climb a mountain fast, do laps in a pool, join martial arts, etc.)
Ok thats my schpeel, happy hurting! “A beautiful body, is a gift to yourself” – Nelly (Sorry I think thats’ the only intelligent thing I’ve ever heard from him)
Good luck guys, and keep me posted on your progress
Comment [10]well, it’s not gonna be fancy, but I figured that I’d use Sarah’s blog to do my own little journal of the trip. i’ve started at the beginning and hope to post an entry or two each night until i’ve covered the whole thing. i’ve actually typed up through the tuesday night of the trip, so tonight should see at least 1 to 2 more entries.
i’ll also be splitting a section off of her gallery for the photos, but those are going to take me some time. i took a little over 1,000 for a total of about 6GB, so i’ve got some work ahead of me. :)
i wish life had a pause button for when you went on vacation… ::grumble…::

Comment [3]I’ll have to look it up to be exactly certain but my lease is done in the near future. I still have plenty of debt and, based on projections, until I pay off my Golf in a few months I have about $23.50 to work with every month after bills and trying to budget for future things like car insurance.
Having kick ass parents like I do they offered to put me up in my old room for about a third of the rent I’m paying now. And I wouldn’t have to worry about paying for utilities obviously. And I wouldn’t have to give up broadband… So my plans for thwarting Mark’s plans for world domination can go ahead unobstructed.
And if I ever did find somewhere else to go I wouldn’t have to wait till my lease was up, I’d just say catcha ya later Maw and Paw.
So I’ve thought about it a lot, and unless I win a shitload of money or find a reliable roommate, and an apartment for practically nothing, I’ll be reloacting again.
So now it’s 3 times in 3 years. Outside of saving more money than I can count ;) I might actually do some crazy things like get a cat. I wanted one last year when I was offered one but they’re not allowed where I’m living currently.
Leave one... [12]
