thanks 
and thanks for the info. on LP's books, maybe when I get some more moolah, I will get them too |
Hi Nik - I use versa-grips (Versagripps.com). What I love is that they are good for heavy push (if you're benching), heavy pull (like DL's) BUT you can also just ignore that they're on since they velcro around your wrist and not use 'em at all. For example, I might use 'em for DL and heavy rows or pulldowns, but just use my own grip for warming up, or step-ups and lunges - they don't get in the way at all. And I even have big callouses to prove that I don't always use them

It made me LOL! It was growling in hamony with yours.
You are doing great so far. I am so glad that you have started to track and get dirty with this. Soon you will probably be able to drop all the tracking.

Thanks Karla! Sorry 'bout your tummy growls - I'm quite familiar with that sound...
I don't know if I'll ever drop the tracking - dropping it was the first step in my regain trend of the last 5 years
. We're going on vaca in February (yeah, I plan ahead) and I'm already wondering if I'll try to track, what I'll do, etc etc

Wanna hear a weird/good thing? Last night AF finally arrived (right as I was posting about where is she?!) and I decided to "treat" myself to my mini-pack of m&m's that I haven't had in weeks - just a little 60 kcal chocolate hit... and I opened the bag, and ate a few, and...
Eh.
That was it. Not yum, just Eh.
So I tossed the rest of 'em. Why bother?
How weird is that? I LUV my chocolate, but... even with AF visiting, they just didn't taste as good as I thought they used to. I still love dark chocolate (had one piece a few days ago), but the m&ms were my FAVORITE and (as Jane will remember) a nightly mini-indulgence... but now...
Hmmmmmmmm....
