I've lost about 25 lbs in 4 months...which isn't too bad. Hoping to drop another 10 then start seriously building up.

    Yeah, I wasn't sure about that. You're the Dr :p

    I've been tempted to start running again though. For the first month and a half or so I lost about 10 pounds, but its slowed down quite a bit. I don't think it was water weight as I try to drink at least half a gallon, probably closer to 3/4 a day. I know I shouldn't reasonably expect more than 1-2 pounds a week, but you know how it goes :p

    I had the intention of losing weight first, then building muscle, but when I was at school I hardly ate, so I think my metabolism went to hell. I'm trying to eat more regularly, an dI have revised my nutrition habits a lot - no more sugar, no snacks, high protein, low carbs, etc... Hopefully the muscle will help boost my metabolism.

    I'm sure I'll be around to give you guys periodic updates :p

    How much did you run when you were doing your running? I was thinking about starting a sprinting routine...

    When I first started, I'd do anywhere from 2.5 - 3 miles MWF.

    Now that I'm down to my "core" weight... it's a bit hard to lose just on cardio, so I'm starting up intervals this next week. I'll be doing 5 min warmup, 1 min high intensity, 2 min med intensity, then 5 min cooldown... 3 times. So hopefully, I'll lose the next 10 this way.

    But I agree, it's hard as crap to bulk up and lose weight at the same time.

    My opinion is that the number really doesn't matter to me. I haven't given myself an ideal weight to reach, but I have given myself an ideal body image to get... So I guess I should stop looking at the scale and just keep my focus :p

    I assume its near impossible to fain muscle at the rate you lose fat, but it certainly slows it down...

    Hi Sneezy. Yes I would assume! This has been going on for a yr and a half now already, and I'm damn fed up! I went to go to my Dr.'s appt today, and once again my gate was wide open. I'm surprised I didn't have to go search the neighborhood for Niki. I went to start my van, and low and behold, it wouldn't start. Don't know what has been done to it this time. A few weeks ago someone broke in and dumped a bag load of garbage inside, and stole nothing but my registration.

    This time they stole something else from my backyard. My mother had brought in a huge load of cans from a big party that was held at the hall where they live. My backyard lights were ripped down, and approx $200 of cans, that I was going to take in tomorrow, for money to go get myself a new outfit and get my hair done for my B'day were stolen.

    It's a long wkd here, and now I can't go anywhere, because my van isn't running right, and everything is closed until Tues.

    Such a wonderful day!

    Sorry Starby, I fell asleep in th corner... you didn't hear me snoring? Wow, Marta elbos me, no just kidding. She gives me a kiss on the forehead to wake me.. Isn't she the best?

    Well, I need to drag this body to bed, busy day at the movies and in the yard tomorrow. I've got to cut the hedges, with all this rain they are about 7" too high now.. 328 feet of hedge cutting, I think I will take Marta's advice and hire a lawn service...

    Night,

    Starby I am sorry to hear all this hon, why didn't the neighbors see or hear anything? And since it happened before, aren't they watching out for you?

    The cops really do nothing at all. I can't even get them to take prints. My ex, or his accompliss have already ripped apart another vehicle of mine that I had to get rid of, and now they are starting on my new one. It's insane!

    I guess I really don't need a new outfit, or haircut for my B'day... after all, I guess I won't be going far. I had to spend over $30 in cab fare today just to get to my appt.

    The neighbor on the one side of me has moved out, and the other ones have a new baby, and probably didn't hear anything. My ex is friends with the girl directly behind me, so I wouldn't doubt if she's his henchman!

    Cameras? I know you can get a decent camera system set up for relatively cheap... or you can just hide a video camcorder outside your house pointed to your van... and maybe one in your backyard.

    Actually, my Dad was going to look into this for me and set one up. I am going to need to talk to him about it again, because this just can't keep on happening. I can't afford to be buying new vehicles, and obviously the cops aren't going to do a damn thing! With all of my repair bills, and stolen things, I am wiped out in the money dept at this point.

    I just called the cops again, and they said they are busy tonight, and the cop I have been dealing with won't be on until Sunday. That is my B'day... like I really want to sit around half the day waiting for the cops one more time. They still haven't settled the thing with Niki yet either, and that happened May 4th

    You know, it probably helps if you just say, "You know what, I've dealt with it myself. You can find the bodies in my car, thanks for your help"

    I'm sure that'll get them running.

    Glad to be drunk A completely inebriated man was stumbling down the street with one foot on the curb and one foot in the gutter. A cop pulled up and said, "I've got to take you in, pal. You're obviously drunk."

    Our wasted friend asked, "Officer, are ya absolutely sure I'm drunk?"

    "Yeah, buddy, I'm sure," said the copper. "Let's go."

    Breathing a sigh of relief, the wino said, "Thank goodness, I thought I was crippled."

    HAHAHAHAHA! Oh I sooooo want to do that! You should have seen these morons running around yesterday when two banks, a block away from each other, got robbed. I could've called them then, and there would've been no cop in town available. Ooooooooo, big city crime!! There must have been a hundred cops (basically all we have) downtown. I could probably dumped a body in front of the donut shop, and they would all gather around wondering why they missed it. Seriously, you should see Tim Hortons Donuts near my house, there is not one hr of the day that there isn't a cop there having a donut... except for shift change! ;)

    Really Good Deed This guy arrives at the Pearly Gates. He has to wait to be admitted, while St. Pete leafs through his Big Book.

    He's checking to see if the guy is worthy of entry or not. Saint Peter goes through the books several times, furrows his brow, and says to the guy, "You know, I can't see that you did lots of good in your life but, you never did anything bad either.

    Tell you what, if you can tell me of one REALLY good deed that you did in your life, you're in."

    The guy thinks for a moment and says, "Well, there was this one time when I was drivin' down the highway and I saw a Biker Gang assaulting this poor girl. I slowed down my car to see what was going on, and sure enough, that's what they were doing. There were about 50 of 'em torturing this chick.

    Infuriated, I got out my car, grabbed a tire iron from my trunk and walked straight up to the leader of the gang. He was a huge guy with a studded leather jacket and a chain running from his nose to his ear. As I walked up to the leader, the Gang formed a circle all around me.

    So I ripped the leader's chain off his face and smashed him over the head with the tire iron. Then I turned around and yelled to the rest of them, 'Leave this poor, innocent girl alone, you slime! You're all a bunch of sick, deranged animals! Go home before I teach you all a lesson in pain!'"

    St. Peter, extremely impressed, says, "Really? Wow, when did all this happen?"

    "Er.. about two minutes ago."
