GirlyMuscle's Hangout

[bryantone]

A lot of us are in a simular situation with the food, lack of support, guilt attitudes and "significant others" that make it difficult to do something that actually benefits relationships if they were to open their minds. I quit drinking, going to bars, getting fat(er) and have a calmer attitude, very few illnesses and never miss work. Because of lifting/cardio 6 hours a week. Bitch all you want. This is one of the few places you can get away with it with BBrs that can relate. Nice quads you got there.

I did the same thing... and it seemed to contribute to my divorce... course part of it was that I did change from the party girl to the gym girl.....

Awww... shucks....

I'm 5'1" and weighed in at 145.8 today. I've compared some pics and video and I'd say I'm not as lean as last year but I'm fuller. So either I put on some muscle or the muscle is full and it was flat last time. I dunno. I just wish for once I could get a good six-pack going.

You may not be there yet, but your closer than you were yesterday

and if I ever compete again... I'm borrowing them legs... I MIGHT give em back to ya when I'm done!

I stopped at the dollar store to grab a few things before the gym and I read the back of the Tums Antacids. 10 cals, 2g carbs, in 2 pieces! I can't use those. So prilosec might be good?

[freebirdmac]

Here's a nice primer http://familydoctor.org/online/famdo...cines/854.html

Basically antacids work in the moment, the other meds strive to keep acid in check so you don't have any need for antacids.

[bryantone]

If you think it is acidic, try 1 teaspoon baking soda in a glass of water. I find that it works better than OTC stuff.

Well... it is just a opinion.... since it really hasnt made a difference in my situation either. It just changed content of the arguments from bars to gyms!

Poor little seamus. I hope he's ok.

[Sledge]

I still say you're ahead from last year.

Me too

[GirlyMuscle]

Seamus is doing well today. The Doc gave him some pretty strong pain meds and he's acting like nothing is wrong.

Just finished cardio #2. Cooking food. Waiting for laundry. Surfing the net....

[GirlyMuscle]

LOL!

[Sledge]

you used to have your hair kinda like that too.

[GirlyMuscle]

Good morning all. Another fine day at PF. (ugh) BRB...gotta go train a newbie. Fun.

[Sledge]

Make sure if it's a 120kg woman on her first training day you get her to try and do pull ups in front of everyone so she gets really embarased and them weird arsed things with the fitball against the wall.

[GirlyMuscle]

Whether I ever compete again or not, I can tell you I will continue to build muscle. I can see where I need more and God forbid anyone ever mistake me for a "physique" or "figure" competitor! I am a female bodybuilder, dammit!

On a side note...I'm still competing in 12 days but of course, I'm not happy with where I am. I wonder if I ever will be? Just once it would nice to be 2 weeks out and feel confident and happy with what I'm bringing to the stage.

I haven't done a routine yet. I haven't picked a song or cut /burned it to cd yet. My suit is supposed to ship this week. Thankfully, Sledge shipped me tanning stuff months ago or I wouldn't have that right now either. I'm not so good at all these details. lol
