Stats:
Age: 27
Height: 5'4"
Weight: 216
Sex: gal
Fitocracy: link

Backstory: I've been overweight my whole life, although when I was younger it never got too bad because I was involved in many sports. College came I gained the freshman 15 plus some, and then meeting my boyfriend added more. A lot of time was spent eating out or boozing. One day I stepped on the scale and it said 200. I realized poo poo had to change and that's when I found this forum. I think I started reading everything on here around the time Uziel started his thread. I started working out and eating good. I got down to around 165 and was feeling great.



Then I had a lovely job, got really depressed, quit lovely job (which was active), got much less depressed, started my own business, and now spend most of my waking hours behind a computer. All of these things have made me reallyyyy fat.





All of those things above have felt like one thing after another, but I finally feel like my life is in a good place now, I'm really happy, I have great friends, a wonderful partner, and I feel like my head is in this.



Toxx goals
By May 13th
-Squat 150lbs
-deadlift 185lbs
-bench 115lbs

Other goals
-Lose weight! My long term goal weight is 140, but right now my short term goal weight is 190 by May 13th.
-Stop sleeping so much and get on a normal life schedule - I go to bed earlish, get up late, too much time wasted in bed! (Ive started taking my iron pills again as this is one reason I get so sleepy)

The How:
Track all calories - eatting around 1800 on workout days 1600 on non workout days.
Workout - I've been using Stumptious's alternating plan for beginners, but I don't know about the 12 reps, if I want to get to bigger lifts should I do smaller reps?


I started on Monday, so I'm going use the next post to post my workout and food from the past three days so you can see where I'm at and suggest any changes.

I'm really excited and have been really inspired by all of you here, so thanks !

So a few things you'll see, the first few days my carbs were really high, I'm working to bring them down and did a much better job today. Today I also ventured into the scary weight lifting room and asked trainer to show me how to squat, so the ones I did today were light to basically get form down.

The other thing I noticed today was I was doing hyperextensions and it hurt my back in a bad way. I don't know if I was doing them wrong or if the bench was at the wrong settings, so I stopped doing those.

Thanks!

Yesterday was a rest day. I shot a Valentine's day wedding and was definitely feeling it in my legs every time I squatted down to take a photo. Then I went to a drag show with some lady friends and it was great.

Eating was good until we went out to the bar and then I had drinks and a club sandwich. But today is a new day! One thing I want to make sure I don't do this time around is beat myself up if I don't have a perfect eating day. In the past I've done that and then I just feel like poop about myself and end up giving up. I'm realizing everyday isn't going to be perfect, and that's fine.

I'm following the stumptuous beginner program, but I don't like the 12reps, so I went for more sets less reps to try and do some heavier lifts.

Also, when doing cardio on the same day as weights should I do the cardio first or second. Today I did it first and it was fine because it was an arm workout, but I don't think I could do squats if I did my biking first.

I think my thread needs some kitty pictures.

I think I have some sort of mental block against squats. I'm pretty sure I could do more weight, but I have a bum knee and I get nervous about it (even though so far squatting hasn't actually bugged it). So I'm working on that.

I still can't figure out the stupid hyperextensions without hurting my back so I need a different exercise to do on this day to replace those.

Today started out as a blah day where I moped around feeling gloomy. It was so gray and icky outside and lady times and just general feelings of fattiness. I thought about just laying in bed all day and eating lots of cookies. However, the second week is where I always mess up and sabotage my good intentions so, I got over myself and went to the gym, and didn't eat any bad food like I wanted to.

I realized that I was doing the bench press wrong last time I did it, I wasn't bringing the bar down all the way to my chest. So they got a lot harder today when I corrected that error.

Yesterday was a rest day, so I didn't do too much.

Food from yesterday:



I did read a lot more threads and decided to switch over to the modified starting strength. I think this will be the best routine to get me some gains in my lifts. I was really excited going into the gym today, but then my knee crapped out on me on my last set of squats. I finished the squats and was able to do one set of dead lifts, but it hurt too much, so I had to call it a day. I was pretty bummed, because I want to be strong and awesome, then I almost ate some McDonald's cause that's what I like to eat when I feel like poo, BUT i resisted (which is challenging since it's in the same plaza as my gym) and I came home and ate my beans like a good girl.

I don't think the dips are logged in their correctly. I used the assisted dip machine, so the 100lbs was the resistance. I have no upper body strength.

Was pretty good until game night time where I ate a ton of snacks. blergh. I played Arkham Horror for the first time though, and that game is awesome.

Yesterday was a poo poo day for everything. My eating was bad and now my car is broken and won't start. I'm trying to deal with that today because otherwise I have no way to get anywhere including the gym and I really want to go lift heavy things today. We're having people over tonight and making homemade pizza for them, so that will be fun and I will not eat all the pizza we make because I have to share it with 5 other people.

I know the exercise doesn't look like much, but I'm actually pretty proud of my bike ride. Last summer I bought a bike to ride downtown to my studio since it's only 2 miles away and parking is 7 bucks a day. But, I was too scared to ride on the roads and so I never rode it. Yesterday is the first time I took it out since I bought it, and it wasn't that scary at all! I made it all the way downtown without being smashed by a car, so success! It was wayyyy harder than cycling at the gym though, I was not prepared for that. This means though, all this summer, I'll be biking downtown instead of driving, yay.

Finally got back to the gym! I dragged my friend along so she could drive me, and then I made her squat and now she hates me. The first set of squats made my knee hurt but I think my feet weren't far enough apart. I widened my stance a little and stuck my toes out more and my knee stopped exploding. I think in the next week or two I'll try and get some video of me doing some of the lifts for critique. I want to make sure my form is good before my lifts get heavier.

Today will be a rest day as I have a billion pounds of work to catch up on, but I'm going to try and get to the gym tomorrow and hopefully after this weekend I'll have a car back!

It's been a pretty rough last couple weeks. Boyfriend and I have been in a pretty stressful financial bind, I've been stressed about whether I've made the right career choice, I couldn't get my car fixed, or buy food, so we ate a lot of crap that we had in the cupboards.

Good news is things are looking up! Tow man is on the way to get my car to take it to get fixed which means I can get back to the gym and I have GWS pulled pork happening in my slow cooker. Life got off track, but sometimes it does that, so time to get back to healthy life .

This workout left me really bummed out because my knee was being a piece of poo poo and felt like it was exploding.

Today's workout was awesome though! I remembered that I had some sneakers I bought awhile ago that are much more supportive than my normal ones for my knee (they're really ugly so they've been hiding in my closet) and I dug out a knee brace. With these things I was able to really get much better squat form and not worry about if my knee was going to break. I hardly had any knee pain, was able to squat more than I thought I could, and made it through all my sets. YAY!

I also made it through all three sets of my OHP at 40 which was really hard, but really awesome. Is the only difference between a military press and an OHP your stance and does it matter which one I do if I'm following starting strengh? I realized I've always done OHP and I don't know if I should switch to military press per the program or if it doesn't really matter.

I haven't been tracking my food which isn't great, but I will be back on that tomorrow.

Today is a weigh in day 210. I can't believe I'm already on week 5, I feel really good about my exercise and lifts, but I really haven't done much in terms of weight loss.

Thursday I'm going to California for 5 days for work. I'm excited because I've never been to CA and more so to be in a place with sunshine and no snow. I will be staying with people I don't know and will be pretty dependent on them for all food / transportation so my goal for the trip is to not gain any weight while I'm there.

It was annoying because all the equipment was getting used so I had to do everything out of order. This one couple was doing circuits and kept hogging the squat racks for pull ups when there are a million other things in the gym to do a pull up from.

But, I lifted well. I think in some of my earlier posts I may have miscounted plates. For example I have a workout where I said I deadlifted 105, but I think this may have been a lie. Today I tried 100lbs and couldn't even move it off the floor. So I guess I'm bad at counting

Here's my food from yesterday. I had dumb brains which you can see if you look at the snack section because I was wallowing around the house eating all the junk. Today is on track to be much better.



Two more days until I'll be here:

Just a quick update. I'm back in upstate NY which is seeming especially dreary after a week in Santa Barbara, BUT it does look like spring may be coming. Anyways, It looks like I managed to not gain any weight despite a lot of eating out. But now it's time to really get my poo poo together. I have nothing coming up and no excuse to not eat right and exercise, so back at it today with tracking and gym.
