Poop The "I just got back from the gym" and this is what I have eaten thread. - Page 265

Okay, so there are a ton of guys in here that are working out, trying to work out, or 'thinking' about working out.

So, I figured I would start a thread. I am all about making myself accountable. The more people that I tell about working out, the more people I would let down by not going.

If you go to the gym.... then post here when you get back. If you do P90X, post here when you get done. If you ride the excercise bike.... post it here.

Anything you do to get in shape.... share with the board. I know I have gotten some great advice and feedback.

Also, post what you eat. If you post everything you eat, and you know others will be critical, you may think twice before you grab a Twinkie.

Okay, so, I went to the gym. I did five minutes on the cross climber to warm up. I stretched for about three minutes.

Then, I did three sets of squats with just 135. I did back extensions and hanging leg lifts. Three sets each. I did leg curls, calf extensions, abductor and adductor excercises as well.

On my leg day, I do very light chest exercises to work on my explosive power. I do three sets of six pushups as explosively as I can. I throw the excercise ball up like a chest pass while laying on the bench.

Then, I finished off my workout with 30 minutes on the eliptical.

As far as my diet.

Breakfast two pieces of peanut butter whole wheat toast, protein shake, and banana.

I have had another banana, two yogurts, and a handful of cashews as snacks.

I didn't have a 'lunch' per se.

Kids had sloppy joes with lean beef (as if that makes it great).... I took a baked potato, and put a serving of sloppy joe over it, with jalapenos and 2 oz's of lowfat cheddar cheese.

I have also had shotgun with water, and synthesize with water.

I won't eat again before bed.

Okay, I know putting everything down here will open me up to criticism. I know some will think that I am doing things all wrong. I appreciate any advice, but I have done a lot of reading and talking to trainers.... so, I have an idea of what I am doing.... or at least what I think I am doing.

The point of this thread, isn't to get into pissing matches about how to do things.... but rather to give ourselves a gold star for making an effort.

Try not to beat anyone down on this thread, because this is about encouragement.

5 more hours until the three-day mark....I can't recall the taste of food, nor the sound of water, nor the touch of grass. Instead I'm... naked in the dark. There's nothing. No veil between me and the wheel of fire! I can see him... with my waking eyes!

Tonight was

Mutli-grain spaghetti = 200 calories
1 Tbs of light butter = 50 calories
3 Tbs parmesan cheese = 30 calories

Total = 280 calories

For lunch, I had a protein shake. Add another 220 calories for the day, so 500 calories.

Dang girl put some meat in that pasta.

ArrowheadHawk · 05-13-2010, 06:48 PM

My dinner was 10 ounces of pork chop and 1 ounce of baked lays.

520 Calories. Still 450 under my daily goal of 1500.

My mom is in town to help while the wife is in NYC for a week. As we always do when the vegetarian wife is out of town, we ate BBQ.

Definitely need a fast tomorrow, heh.

**Buck** · 05-13-2010, 06:58 PM

So I've never noticed food commercials as much as I have now.

I've been craving a cheese quesadilla, Some Carne Asada Fries, Pizza, Garlic Bread, Spaghetti.

It really sucks.

Dang. What is your calorie goal for the week? 1500?

I try to eat sparingly through the week. Saturday is when I go to my bar. Lunch, four beers, a shot, and a chocolate martini.

Sounds cool. I just try to eat under 1500 a day and I figure that leaves me plenty of calories if I want to go out drinking. Of course my calorie goals to lose weight are 1500-1850 calories per day. I fasted one day and all the rest I keep the calories around 1500. That way I can drink my vodka and cranberry juice on the weekend.

I better look like a damned underwear model.

All but one of the workouts are less than 60 minutes (Yoga, that's the 90 minute one) and I'd say I'm seeing some pretty serious results.
