OK,  I had to do my workout at night because work is taking up my morning now a days. 

I am feeling like I have suffered a setback big time, but I know I will get past that feeling in a few days when my body is use to working out heavy again.

Did my 500 sit ups today and my tummy feels nice and tight.

I am a little depressed because I can't lose weight and I just feel fat now a days, but i'm going to try to stay positive.   I just didn't want to go into a new year fat and it looks like that is exactly what is going to happen.   But damit I am not done yet.

500 sit ups...

I sure have a lot to work on.

I know I have to get moving more and I am setting myself upto make sure I do.

Heck I brought the treadmill down and put it in my living room so I can watch it and the nice TV.  LOL!

500 sit ups?

I am going to see about that being a goal..

What do you think Ms Lee:

Could this long rest have expedited muscle growth?  My thighs are huge and keeping me out of three pair of pants that fit all Summer.   I already suspected Insanity was expanding my legs with the squats and lunges. 

My calves needed it but my thighs were big enough.  I was down to one pair of jeans tight and another pair to get back into; all hips and stomach.  Waistline is improving but legs have blown up. 

I'm also feeling fat plus I've been eating poorly too.  Today is the first day I did not wake up with a big appetite.  Not looking at the scale just trying to get back into my clothes.

I've tried and failed daily to get moving but today I woke up feeling a litle more 'human' again.  Not ready to resume insanity but will start light lungs willing.  Do not want to risk issues.

I definately think the rest helps your muscles to grow it certainly did for my biceps.   I tell you it looks like I have been lifting really heavy again and I haven't. 

Becca is teling me that she doesn't really want me to get any more muscle because it looks to manly but I told her as long as I look normal in a t-shirt and not like some hulk i'm going to keep it up.  I'm older and Dr. Oz says I definately need the muscle.     I always use Dr.Oz to do things I want.

Marcia have you ever heard of HCG diet the one where you give yourself shots?   I am almost that desperate at this point, but I know it's to crazy because you can only eat 500 calories a day so there is not way in hell I can possibly do it.

I have but I can find no double blind studies on hcg that prove its effective.  I already take daily shots so one more needle is no issue.  I just need evidence its worth the expense.

I'm afraid to cut calories so low because it may further slow my metabolism.  I would just try slashing to 500 for two weeks but it will be extremely hard.  Five servings of egg protein would be 530 calories and 120g protein.  It would have to be all liquid for me.  There is no way I could eat such tiny amounts; but, after a few days on liquids only my appetite shrinks. 

I've also been researching low doseing on metphormin to reduce insulin load.  Its perscription, but we know we can get anything on line if we look hard enough.  Looking into how much and when to take. 

Anything to move this stubborn fat.  Do you think running will help trim my thighs?  I was running indoors when my thighs were much smaller.

I think running will **** your body up big time.   I think the biggest mistake I made in my fitness life was running.

I think if you stop those squats and lunges your thigh muscles will calm down and shrink up.  I have big muscular legs and if I do just the smallest amount of leg work I get big ass football player thighs.

Yeah that 500 calories a day is something I know I can't do, **** 500 calories is nothing and what the hell happens when you start eating more,  YOU GET FAT AS HELL is what.   I was only kidding because there is no way I could do HCG.   I know 4 people doing it right now and they are dropping serious ass weight but I know it's going to come back super fast.

I just have no dam idea what to do anymore.

I hope you're right.  I measure myself and these thighs are expanding.  I have always had short muscular legs, also NFL ready, smh.

You know your friends will go back to eating 'normal' and prove diets don't work.  The only way to keep it off is to eat based on their new lowered RMR.  Most dieters don't know how to or just don't/ can't do it. 

I'm already eating to an RMR of 130-135 lbs not counting this flu and accompanying feeding frenzy.  I want to get my metabolism measured so I have a starting point.  I think kmowing my true BMR is the only way to manage my weight.  Have you had yours meaured?  I will check out a nearby university and see if they do this forthe public and what it costs.

Okay Lee let me tell you  my revenge and reunion story and this should kick you back in gear (BUT PLEASE only do what your body can because you want to be smaller but healthy and able to walk to get your revenge not be rolled in a wheel chair!)

I went to an event last night and saw someone that was very very hateful to me and did and said some awful things that could have destroyed my professional life several times.  I am blessed to have a long and excellent reputation to stand behind.  I also strongly suspect this "B" punctured (or got someone else to do it) my truck tires on over 8 different occasions!)

Last night I was at a social/professional event and saw her.  The last time she saw me I was a size 22 (at 5' 0") and now I'm a size 8...she did not notice me until someone told her who I was, but I saw her.  Although she has been a "B" to me I sought her out about the time she realized who I was.  Her mouth was wide open then she said oh my God my one thigh would not fit into that whole skirt.  I simply said yes, but I see you are maintaining.........She is a size 24 and about 5'1".  I know I was being mean & a tad childish but I needed to put icing on my revenge moment. 

Needless to say the thought of this moment will keep me doing the right thing for a good while.  OH BABY REVENGE IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SWEET :)

Change is a Process Not an Event

REVENGE IS THE BEST
