So the last two days I've been stressed and wasn't eating enough, then today my stress made me eat TOO much. I have a big report I hope to finish off this weekend so hopefully I'll get back to normal after that... Anyway, for now I'm going to back off of counting calories. I have an idea of what proper portions and what-not I should be eating. I'm finding right now with being so stressed it's making me slip back into old habits re: obsessing about food and body fat and I really don't want to play that game again. So for now I'll just concentrate on eating healthy food and if my progress stalls I know just to eat less healthy food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How are you gonna gauge progress for this... weight or measurements? Well the rational side of me tells me I should ignore the scale and go with measurements and photos and the like and just ignore the scale. In fact I might ask my guy to go hide it somewhere in the basement. He uses it occasionally so I shouldn't just throw it out... I just really don't like the slippery slope I'm on right now. I was doing good counting calories but the last week or so I've noticed old behaviours I don't like and I want to nip this in the bud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lobsteriffic Posted June 28, 2009 Author Share Posted June 28, 2009 Honestly they were just okay. It was good and all, but I thought it was going to be amazing. I don't know if I would make it again, but it's definitely worth making once just to check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lobsteriffic Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 Okay so I didn't do yoga or DVDs yesterday...ended up getting a major headache. I took a nap and it subsided a little bit so then I spent the night scrubbing the kichen floor and washing counter tops. Tuesday, June 30th: The gym was so busy this morning! Part of the reason I go early in the AM is that it's not crowded and I don't have to wait for equipment...not the case this morning. Weights:Bench Press:45 x 870 x 570 x 570 x 570 x 570 x5 Incline DB Press:22.5 x 822.5 x 822.5 x 8 At this point I wanted to do rack pulls but all of the racks were taken so I did my ab work. Captain's Chair:BW x 12BW x 12BW x 12 Had to wait around for awhile for a rack to open up...there were other people waiting too so I didn't want to go do something else and lose my place in "line" Rack Pulls:45 x 8135 x 5135 x 5135 x 5135 x 5135 x 5 These are really starting to help my grip...which is still weak but getting loads better. I was supposed to do seated rows but two dudes were using the machine working in with each other (so there really wasn't a place for me to work in) so I did... BB Rows:45 x 850 x 850 x 8 Cardio: Didn't have time after waiting around for equipment and what-not. If it's not raining I will try to go for a walk or bike ride or something this evening.

JW Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 mmmm watermelon!!! my favourite what is the faux chorizo like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lobsteriffic Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 It's seitan that's steamed. Julie Hasson posted the method on her site awhile ago to make sausages that way. Then in Isa Moskowitz' new cookbook Vegan Brunch she changes the seasonings and what-not to make it spicy like chorizo. The steaming gives the seitan a chewier texture, I quite like it.
