vivalasvegans Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 OMG I'm such a delicate flower. Yesterday on the treadmill this guy next to me seriously smelled like an old hamper filled with sweaty clothes covered in staff infection. I tried to tough it out, but after 15 minutes I had to go throw up. That kind of did me in for the rest of the workout, I had to get my run in by intervals. I threw up twice in between them. Goal:Got to get to running outside, by spring break hopefully. This barf fest should be good motivation. Workout:30 mins elliptical, 15+5+25+5 mins running, bis/tris, 5 mins running, no abs, didn't think it would be wise Food:2 tsp misocoffee, soygreen beanscherry tomatoesa zucchini, a tomato, and 1/2 cup garbonzos4 pieces of bread munched on throughout the afternoon4 pieces of celey and a veg sausagecoffee, soyWORKOUT2 cups popcorna bowl of spinach and a veg burger with a piece of breadfinally remembered to eat a tsp of ground flax4 squares of low carb chocolate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vivalasvegans Posted February 21, 2009 Author Share Posted February 21, 2009 Thursday: no workout, lots of work. Diet was almost all carbs, most of them processed except for 2 yummy vega bars. My project this weekend is to back away from processed carbs and get back to eating more whole and more raw. The weather is turning, it's time, and i can feel a pms getting ready to happen because of the way i've been eating. I might have a drink if I go to this one show... Friday workout:1/2 hour elliptical, 3/4 hour running, delts, abs Friday food:2 tsp misosome decaf coffee by terrible mistake and 2 bites of rly rly sweet pineapple,3 bites of honeydewsome real coffeea bran muffin with berries in it2 or three oatcakes, i don't remembercoffee, soyWORKOUT2 bowls of collards and some chickenless chicken (34 grams protein 380 cals)3 cups popcorna few bites of bagel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivalasvegans Posted February 22, 2009 Author Share Posted February 22, 2009 Well, I broke a long standing barrier today... I went to the freeweight section of my gym alone! Yay. I came straight home after the gym, and my fingertips were numb... don;t know why that happened, maybe i hit the weights so hard that all my blood got stuck in my muscles so my capillaries closed up... Workout:30 mins elliptical. 45 mins running, bis/tris, 5 mins running, abs I think I ate a hell of a lot today. My dietary plans kind of got sidetracked this morning when I accidentally took a multi and a side of zinc on an empty stomach. A lot of times if my diet gets off to a bad start for a day, it's hard to pull it back in. I think that's a blood sugar issue. Also today could be a pms thing.some blended celery, tomato, and ginger with lots of watera bagel (to settle the goofy stomach from the vits)a scoop of vega with a little cocoa and alot of h20a larabar jam frakas coffee, soyWORKOUT8 oz of seitan with some cherry tomatoes and lettuceand a bowl of spinach4 cups of popcorna whole package of cocao nibs with raisins and coconut (220 cals)4 rice cakesa chocolate truffle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vivalasvegans Posted February 24, 2009 Author Share Posted February 24, 2009 I got some very scary news about a friend yesterday. At first it paralyzed me, I couldn't move. Then I got so fucking raged out. It was a no-gym day so I went on a long bike ride and tackled some big-shot hills. I surprised myself... I haven't ridden like that since my accident. I forgot how sweet it is to fly down the other side of a good hill too. Idk if I can duplicate that workout, it was all fueled by some crazy fucking rage and donut grease. Monday food:2 tsp misocoffee, soysome green beansa green peppera zuchinni, a tomato, and 1/2 cup garbonzos3 cookies1/2 cup baby carrots4 donutsRIDEa bowl of spinach and a veg burger with a cup of popcorna cookie This donut episode wasn't purely an emotional reaction to the scary news, as much as I would like to fool myself that it was (although that was mixed up in it.) I was really craving carbs (and probably fat too) but yeah if I'm going to be honest with myself, there were also aspects of self-sabotage mixed up in it as well as some other emotional throw backs to my childhood. Basically, donuts are satan though, is what it comes down to "Get thee behind me satan" doesn't work in this case then because I don't want donuts on my behind. Don't know what to do about this self sabotage business, probably set some new goals and commit to seeing a trainer. Only 4 weeks of crazy schedule from hell left to go.

vivalasvegans Posted February 25, 2009 Author Share Posted February 25, 2009 I talked to K last night after a long time of no contact. I'm calling him K because he's my kryptonite.. Anyways, it made me want to eat and smoke mass amounts. I didn't though. Yay another victory. Running was ok, but a little ridiculous at first because I ended up on the treadmill in front of the heater vent. OMG it was torture. My left toes felt a little numb for a lot of the run, even when I tried to shake it out. I think it was a lacing issue. I weighed myself last night. I think this nasty junk food habit of mine is catching up to me. Not gonna let that happen. 30 mins elliptical, 45 running, bis/tris Food: 2 tsp misocofee, soycelerycucumbersa cookiea zucchini, a tomato, 1/2 cup of garbonzos and a muffin4 smal cookies and a green pepper1 other cookie and a veg sausagecoffee, soyworkoutspinach, green beans, zucchini and a tomato with a veg burgerparts of a bagel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vegan Joe Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Say vivalasvegans, do you eat the meso right off the spoon plain. I love miso soup and make it sometimes myself, but never thought about eating it right out of the container.Also do you make your own doughnuts. I have had some success in the past with drop dougnuts. I feel better about them as I mix in flours such as teff, and amaranth (not just you typical white flour variety). I drop little clumps of dough into heated oil and when they float to the top their done. Anyway look for your strained frienship even if we never see eye to eye.Hope your day goes well!

Tasha Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Yeah I never understood that either? At first I thought maybe you put it in your coffee with soy lolIf I'm craving sault I eat seaweed. (Dulse) But we all have our weird cravings You also probably better off to have a cup cake or a piece of cake. Since they aren't dipped in fried oilsYou said something it brings back your childhood? I can't remember the last time I had a doughnut..??? Years and years ago. Probably about 10-12 yrs ago. I hope to see you soon, and keep up with the progress hun, you're doing great !!!!

vivalasvegans Posted February 26, 2009 Author Share Posted February 26, 2009 Oh yeah I munch on nori once in a while, i hardly ever use dulse. Kelp sometimes though instead of salt... Hope to see you this weekend, tash, preferabley not at the donut shop! Wednesday food and workout: pretty much the same as the day b4 except I worked on delts and abs and confirmed it was a shoe lacing issue. Also dedicated myself to getting some personal training, but then it got late and I got tired and it sliped my weary mind. All in all a great workout though.

vivalasvegans Posted March 3, 2009 Author Share Posted March 3, 2009 Monday: Somehow the day got away from me... I didn't leave the gym till almost 9. I guess the surprise staff meeting didn't help matters. I didn't get much sleep over the past few nights either... my bad. Last night running was kind of torture, maybe cuz my ipod ran out of juice? I didn't want to be doing it, but I did it. Killed it. I started to curse my genetics "fuck you genes, I'll do what I wanna do, and make my body what I wanna make it" and i did. I was grumpy. I giggled at myself afterwards. 30 mins elliptical, 45 mins running, delts, abs Food: junkier than I would have liked, I tried to stack carbs uup front, but I still had the munchies at night.2 tsp misocoffee, soya scoop of vega in fizzy watera handfull of baby carrotssome celerya zucchini, a tomato, 1/2 cup of garbonzos and a muffin3 pieces of bread (I'n gonna try and remember to replace this with larabar or oatmeal)coffee, soyWORKOUTartichokes steamed with peppers with a veg burger3 cups of popcornsome low carb chocolatea cinnamon roll <--- wtf it was so good though If i'm gonna keep up this mad cardio sustainably, I got to figure out exactly how would be the best for me to deal with carbs.
