Forgotten Chapter Update

Eyyy. Been a minute on here. Almost a whole year! Decided to log in and see where I had left off and see the pattern seems the same of get motivated fall off the wagon but good news! I’m lower than I was before LOL. So progress I guess. weight loss update: Currently weighing in at 179.4lbs but I’ve been stalled for about a week. Sticking to keto with low calories as well about 30g carbs per day with 1000-1300 cals depending on how I’m feeling. Also doing IF for at least 16 hours per day and only eating Lunch and dinner. Since meals feel better when I can eat 600-700cal per meal. I’m back to seriously weighing and logging my food everyday and have about a 40 day streak going right now. Started the c25k program again 4 weeks ago. Had to repeat week 3 this week do to social obligations so I only did 2 of the 3 runs last week. I decided it would be a good idea to repeat it. Today will be run 3 of the repeat week and depending on how I feel I will be moving on to week 4. Switched up my gym program. Going 5 days a week with a split of Shoulders, Back, Chest, Legs and last day is Tri/Bi. Doing two ab exercises each weight day as well. Usually hitting about 4 exercises per muscle group doing sets of 4 with reps at 20, 16, 14 and 12. In terms of cardio, I’m trying to hit about 5-6 days of cardio per week for 20-30 minutes sessions. Either stationary bike, c25k, VR workouts, jump rope or an entire day of cleaning which keeps me in fat burn/cardio mode for hours. If all goes as planned I’m hoping this last 29lbs will be gone before the holidays. Wish me luck!

Lessons Learned by Children of Alcoholics

If I can control everything, I can keep my family from becoming upset.

If I please everyone, everyone will be happy.

Whatever happens is my fault, and I am to blame when trouble occurs.

People who love you the most are those who cause you the most pain.

If I don’t get too close emotionally, you cannot hurt me.

My responsibility is to ensure that everyone in the family gets along with each other.

Take care of others first.

Nothing is wrong, even when I don’t feel right.

Expressing anything besides happiness is not appropriate.

I can deny anything.

I am not a good person.

I deserve the bad things I’ve had to deal with.

Back at it again Update

06-04-2017 Prepare for a wall of text, but I figured I should update. I do like to look back at my shit and get a feel for how things are going. When I said I was going to get my shit together last time, I hit that 185lbs and like normal plateaued pretty damn hard. Fell into a bad frame of mind and fell off the wagon like usual. No excuses here. I maintained going to the gym regularly because I enjoy it. Right as I started eating like shit again I ended up getting super sick in November. Strep throat followed by pink eye (caused from the antibiotics) into a bad case of bronchitis. I haven’t been sick since high school. So this led to eating like shit and feeling like worse shit. Holidays hit me like a train wreck and I continued eating like shit. I came to the realization mentally that I wasn’t doing well, and went though some shit emotionally where I began accepting shit that happened to me as a child. Without getting to deep into the emotional shit, I had made excuses for the ways I was treated in my teenage years. Only until I saw a video that touched me hard, did I actually admit to having an abusive childhood. My mother was a heavy alcoholic, and so I am an adult child of an alcoholic. Many of my personal issues and some of my character traits make complete sense when compared to other ACoA’s.  In a sense, coming to this realization has helped me immensely. Part of my weight loss struggle is due to using food as coping mechanism. Now that I’ve opened my eyes and know what my reasons are I can finally have closure and work on my eating habits. I have an unhealthy relationship to food and must address my habits in order to not fall back as I always do. My weight loss over the last few years has been one hell of a roller-coaster. But now that things make more sense I should have an easier time preventing myself from fucking up again. I got back up to 220lbs by March. Started actually trying to Keto off and on again in April. Didn’t getting serious until the beginning of May and was back down to 209. I went on vacation 2 weeks ago at 209.8lbs. I enjoyed myself and drank WAY too much. When I came home a week ago I was back up to 217.8 and I had felt like my entire month of doing well was shot to shit. It’s been a week since I’ve been home. Went back to the gym for the first time in two weeks (didn’t go the week before we left) on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday to do a chest/tris, legs, back/shoulders/bicep split (everything is super sore FML) Checked my weight this morning and was back down to 209.4. So I managed to lose 8.4lbs this week. So it looks like I didn’t set myself back an entire month! I’m back on keto again. And my plan is a 4 day split at the gym. Chest/Tris, Legs, Back/Biceps and shoulders on the last day. I’ll be going Tuesday-Friday. I usually plateau around 200lbs and 185lbs.  So the plan is to add stationary bike 3 days a week for 30 minutes on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday when I hit 200lbs. Then at the 185lbs plateau I’ll restart the c25k program with a sit-up and push-up program on Monday, Wednesday and Fridays. Sundays will be my off day. From my previous post I mentioned the training I’ve been doing and how I’ve progressed... so I think I’ll copy pasta and add my newer numbers now since even though I was food shitty, I tried to not train shitty. I’ve seen hella growth on the leg press and started bench pressing as well. ----------------------

Pectoral Fly: 70lbs to 90lbs. —> 130lbs  I could probably do 145 or more If I don’t bench so hard haha.

Shoulder press: 20lbs to 50lbs —> 55lbs ----> using 30lbs dumbbells now

Tricep Extensions: 80lbs to 115lbs. —> 170lbs ----> Now doing drop sets on cables starting at 57.5lbs in sets of 8s all the way down the rack

Low Row: 100lbs to 90lbs —> 120lbs ----> Still at 120 :(

Leg Extensions: 130lbs to 145lbs. —> Sticking to 145. ---> Still sticking to 145

Leg Press (my fav): 320lbs to 500lbs —> 840lbs -----> 1017lbs. Total of 20 plates + machine weight. KILLING IT!

Squats: 90lbs to 180lbs —>405lbs ---> started using actual squat rack. doing 1 plate comfortably for now.

Calf Press: Matching weight on leg press so 840lbs ---->18 plates + 117lbs for machine weight.

Hip abductors In: I can max the machines now. ---> Can still max

Hip abductors Out: Can max the machines now. ---> Can still max

Bench Press: Started with just the bar (45lbs) now up to 115lbs. My goal is to train to hit a 45lb plate on each side for sets of 8s. Rear Delts: 75lbs then a set on cables using 10-15. Chest Press (hammer strength): 140lbs ---> Still sticking to about 140 since I bench first. Depending on the day I’ll do it at 90 for more reps.

Lat Pull downs: 160 max ---> Started doing with the cable machine as well. 100lbs lat wide grip pull downs super setting with 100lbs under hand pull downs.

Shoulder Shrugs: 160lbs max --> about the same. Grip strength is shitty. Assisted pull ups 115lbs in sets of 8s with 4 total sets super setting with back extensions using body weight in sets of 8s. Dumbbell Chest press to failure with 30lbs dumbbells. Dumbbell inclined fly 20lb dumbbells in sets of 10

Laying down leg curls at about 65-70lbs Max of 90 but that shit hurts Front lateral Raises Cable at 20lbs Lateral Raises with 15lb dumbbells. (include front lateral raises and side as well super setting) ----------------------------- So let’s try this again. For the last time.

“I want to speak to a manager,” the middle-aged woman said in her stern I-used-to-be-a-soccer-mom-ten-years-ago voice, looking down at me over the top of her Gucci reading glasses.

A wicked grin split across my face and the gates of Hell opened up behind me, releasing a gust of hot wind that whipped my apron around my body and forced the woman to shield her face. Demons came forth, dancing around in flames with songs of, “She wants to speak to a manager. Did you hear that? She wants to speak to a manager!” before erupting into earsplitting shrieks of laughter, none louder than my own cackling.

I took in the woman’s look of utter horror before my eyes rolled back into my head and I growled,

“I am the manager.”

Ohmygawd. Wtf. I can't even. Lemonade is the best drink ever. How could they confuse that with a damn soda. Gross.

Lmao this American girl walked up to a Hungry Jacks (Burger King) register with her drink and really, really loudly (I was at the other side of the place) proclaimed: “I asked for Lemonade, you gave me Sprite” in a really bitchy, entitled voice.

The cashier (and everyone within earshot) just looked at her like “the fuck is wrong with you”

In Australia, Sprite IS lemonade as far as we’re concerned.

Enjoy your 90c refund you cheap ass ho.
