I didn't lift today due to a horrible sinus headache. It was mostly gone by after lunch but I still had that full-headed, ever-so-slightly dizzy feeling. I did do 40 minutes on the elliptical-better than nothing. I hope to lift tomorrow night.

It seems that I have lost 1/2 inch in my hips and 1 inch in my stomach-the hugeness between my waist and hips. I haven't had any success in so long, it is hard for me to believe.

Well, where is the TADA? That is much success. Your hard work is showing.

[Fitwit]

Thank you so much, DD!!

YEAH!!!! That is incredible progress for such a short time. Congrats to ya and keep up the good work.

[Fitwit]

Thank you Stingo, Tracey and Karla!! I love this forum!

[Espi]

That must have been very motivating.. You remind me to do tape measurements more often! More telling than scale weight.

[Fitwit]

Hi Espi! I'll take any progress I can get!

The pizza was wonderful! I will try not to cheat again until Cake Day on February 3rd! Hahahaha! My son (age 11) decided, 3 years ago, we needed another holiday to celebrate so he decided we should celebrate cakes. Cake Day is the 1st Sunday in February-Sunday so Daddy can be home to celebrate...cakes! Oh yea, the idea came from a Jimmy Neutron episode. So remember, February 3rd is Cake Day! Cakes Rule! Hahaha!

I'm serious, we really do this:0

Somehow i overlooked this, and then when throwing out emails struck on it again and then I thought: WOW! Just wow. Cake day.

My SO will adore your son.. he loves cakes too and says they are 'Teh Anabolik Food' .

[Fitwit]

Oh Espi! My son, Brad, loves that Cake Day has gone international! Hahaha! He got a big kick out of your promotion of it! Thanks!!

Does the cake need to be eaten ON that Sunday? I'd most likely make it then take it into work on Monday - would that suffice?

[Fitwit]

Hmmm....well, Stingo, I would have to ask the "author" of Cake Day, but I guess we could let it slide this year..... Go ahead and enjoy your cake at work!

Pssst I started a thread here too (in the Recipe Section as I need help on that carrot cake). I'll be slipping too, since Monday is going to be my high kcal day. If I'd be training in the morning (which I don't).
In case I can't hold myself back and already eat/devour it on Sunday, I'd make Monday a low-kcal day and see if I can improve my lifting with it.. I've done this approach in October. It worked very well (eat more the night before = better lifting) but I recovered slightly less (eating less = more tired in the next off-day). Compromises.. compromises.

Might just do that

Carrot cake....I always think yuk, but it is usually really yummy!
