Hi Karen,
Thanks for stopping by! I know, the food logging is kind of tedious, but it works for me and even helps me make better decisions. Plus, I want to get some good results with this program. I have been stuck at the same weight forever. We'll see if it works.

Ginger, thanks for stopping by my log; thought I'd take a look over here. How's the crowded gym treating you? Seems like your workouts are going pretty well!
I am so jealous of your home gym. We can't put one into our 800 sq. ft. condo, but it is a dream of ours someday, and we're already shopping for squat racks! I think we should find the house first...
Ah, the gym is going alright. I joined in April of last year, because it was a brand new gym and I was had been working out at home for a while. I felt I needed a boost, so it works. It is nice being able to do the workouts here, if I want to avoid that whole scene. It helped that when we looked at this house, someone had an old treadmill sitting in the room, so I quickly claimed the area as "the exercise room"...

Ok, I totally forgot to post my food numbers from Friday and yesterday. I didn't do as well on the numbers, however, and the sodium was a little high. We have done some convenience eating and that is always a hard one to keep low.
Friday
Calories: 1,531
Carbs: 186
Protein: 110
Fat: 39
Saturday
Calories: 1,382
Carbs: 111
Fat: 66
Protein: 86

Today is workout #5 A and that moves me into the 3 sets of 10 stage! I am excited and nervous, all rolled into one. LOL
My hubby offered to spot me if I work out here, so I may do that. If I go to the gym and workout, I don't have a spotter and I really want to move up in weights on the squats, so I may take him up on that.
I caught him reading the copy of NROL, earlier this week and he was really enjoying it. I am hoping he starts working out again. He has some back issues, but recently started a new job that will free up more time and is less physical, so I think it is a perfect time. Hopefully, he will too.
