Vegan Bodybuilding & Fitness

Today I had to go to the YMCA my college gym was closed. I liked it, most girls were reading trendy magazines while leaning on their bikes' seats' backs. My girlie self would embrace the dumbbells like most dudes there. I bbq'ed a pack of 6 tofu hot dogs. I was thinking of leaving some for later but I ate them all at once. I'm a large person lol. I hadn't eaten anything in 6 hours and worked out in the mean time. No guilt! Ah- also now I'm sure that bleach damages my throat.

lol I didn't drink bleach. I was trying to do some decolouring on fabric for the second time and now my throat hurts. First time I thought it was the ammount of water that gave the the throatache but today I realized it's the chemical.

Today was a rainy day and it's pouring now, just perfect for sleeping. No workout, I have to finish the first part of my training cycle tomorrow so I switched Sat for Sunday as the day off. Today I'm feeling a lot the biceps from yesterday. I cooked TVP fo the first time, it was good!

Just puzzling: cutting and moving. I cropped to the close-up I wanted and then just cut/pasted to a white frame. (If you photoshop it's easier but I don't have in my pc )

I just wanna combine pictures that's all I need it for.

I hope you can get what you want, it's not very hard, just a bit time consuming.

Check out this!


It's ppt over paint, even more ol' school

I figured it out.

Made a comparison of what I looked like 1 year ago to now it's cool.

Today it's been a busy Sunday. Studying all the time. Oh boy I'm just going to make sure to have lots of fun in my b-day... hard task in this town
I went to the Y again, not many arnold-wannabes, lots of chatting (oh my godz shud up and let me work! ) At least it's funny how some people get offended when you ask them politely to let you work. Well I think I also went over the board: "Don't you have some dumbbells to lift here?" but they had it coming. Now the whole gym knows how uncool I can get

I'm running out of cashews, no wonder...

Today, it was tiring!! Not quite much physically but I haven't had a relaxing time (other than the gym but that's like showering) in a while. And still have to do some more reading :/

I went to run on the road. The track was completely taken, I didn't feel pissed, they were just cute 5 yo kiddies playing games and stuff. I can't regulate my pace that well off the track (I have to fix that) so I ran faster than usually, plus the 3 months off: I got exhausted after 25 minutes That was lame, really. I have to slowly go back to running so I can keep injury free and do something that's at least decent. I saw a nurse out of the hospital sitting on the grass, leaning on a wall and smoking, with the uniform on Not that sitting on the grass is bad, I like it actually, but not with the same clothes that she'll be wearing to give people pills!!! And smoking... well, no comments :/

I ran out of oatmeal and cashews but I haven't had time to go do groceries. I won't buy cashews anyway, I got an addiction issue going on and that has to stop.

My Ethics prof will let me do an extra on my project about animal rights. That's cool!!!!

9:00 1/2 oatmeal Ezekiel w/soymilk

Ah- I hope the gym is open tomorrow because I have no time to go further and I want to start my max strength week!!

Good morning >> I got up like half an hour before so that I didn't have to run and could put myself into waking-up mode. It's over now and I might have a 3 days break. Whatever! It's just 6 weeks before going to spend some time in Cuba and I will have to work on a lot of stuff in that time.
But well, going to things that matter: there was a new multi-coloured Swiss ball at the gym!!!! weeeeeee Well I don't use Swiss balls but it's fun to watch it. Today I didn't have time to workout a lot hey, I still benched my record today! (I think)
I got into the feeling of my last teen year in the afternoon. B-day crisis... I hadn't had time to think a lot about it but when gum-shaped-brain thoughts caught me I got into it. It's a bit good, I'm growing (time is actually growing on me) and I can see that I will be soon doing things that were once far away. But responsabilities catch up too. Still the more I think I'm really growing I realize that I'm a child.
Tomorrow I'm going to try to run. After yesterday my runner ego was deeper than Kant books and I have to be thankful that my injury did not come back (at least not for yesterday).
I was told today that I am an artist and that I don't know it. I also realized today how thankful people can be, that was nice.
Today I want to speak french. I dunno why. (well I also couldn't help putting that smiley)

8:30 Kiwi, strawberry

11:40 tofu. celery w/ peanut butter

That's like going to the toilet and not flushing!!!! (The same goes to teachers that use the board and leave it all written for the next prof to erase. And so forth...)

18:00 more tofu, and more celery w/peanut butter (I get creative)

Hum this music is so good and I just remembered I have to wake up early tomorrooo

ahahahha...quoted for truth!

Good job with the new records.

Don't worry, once you hit 20 it won't feel any different than 19. Didn't for me anyways.
