after a bit of time spent playing around with my graphic editor i have change my ticker today to better reflect my goal of loosing fat not just weight. I want muscle Up and Fat Down which doesn't alway reflect on the scales.

i will post my food later.

What is your body fat goal? Great ticker... :)
 
Bailey my ultimate bodyfat goal is 12% which is what i was when i was young and fit but i would be happy with 15-16%

with my muscle gain my weight loss is realy slow compared to some on the forum, i am gaining muscle at a rate of about 1 kg (2.2 pounds) every 4-6 weeks and averaging about 1/2 a kilo of weight loss per week. 26% is in the healthy range but my next mini goal it is to reach the fit range in 6 weeks time.

Yesterdays food (not good but it is what i ate :( )

Breakfast: Pizza (400 calories)
Lunch:salad with fat free italian dressing
Snack:2 barley sugars and a mouthfull of coke
Supper: Spaghetti Bolognese

Water: Less than a litre (i am slipping here i need to bring my water back up)
Exercize: none (muscles still recovering)

I am out of tuna untill i go shopping next week :(

time now for breakfast and then into the gym for my weight workout.
 
ok I had some breakfast (chilli tuna) and got a good workout at the gym which was extra busy this morning because they had a free open day for non members now that the renovations are finished. Back on track with my water with 1 litre so far this morning.
 
ok yesterdays food in full

Breakfast : Chilli Tuna
Snack: 1 slice of vintage cheese
Lunch: Nil
Snack: 3 barley sugars while reading
Supper: Stir fry beef with chinese noodles and mixed veg.

Water: 1.5 litres
Exercize: 15 minute warm up (row, Bike) 1.5 hours weights

Feeling good this morning but my plan to run some intervals this morning has been sunk by the rain so i will spend some time on the bike shortly then i will go and hide myself away in my painting room in the shed to work on finishing the painting of my latest regiment of skaven clanrats.

my muscles have recovered well from yesterdays workout.

this is a link showing the different ranges of bodyfat

Great Link !!! I see you want to be in the essential body fat range ... Is that where the other professional female weight lifters are?
 
Bailey the lower i can get my bodyfat the better chance i have of lifting in a lower weight category i would idealy like to lift in the 75 kg weight class but realistically i will probably end up in the 82 1/2 class by the time i find a competition close enough to where i live to enter. shows the weights i am aiming to lift (TOTAL = bench press, squat and deadlift weights added together) all weight are in kg

not feeling so good now after discovering one of my son's guinea pigs has died over night, i have pre dug a grave for him to make it easier for my son when he wakes up this morning :(
 
Hey Bronwyn! So sorry to hear about your son's guinea pig. I know how hard it is. On the brighter side, you are doing great! 1.5 hours of lifting weights! That is awesome!

By they way, what is skaven clanrats? :confused:
 
Your food always sounds so interesting. What is chili tuna?

Glad to hear you are moving along splendidly on the body building. If you do compete, I hope you win!!
 
MJ you can buy tins of tuna with different herbs and other flavours added to the tin, Chilli Tuna is a tin of tuna with chilli added to it.

Tami one of my hobbies is playing wargames with fantasy figurines (Warhammer Fantasy) but before the figures are used in a game they have to be built and then get painted. My army consists of which are evil rat men, my hubby has a dark elf army, me eldest son has an empire army, middle son = Bretonians and my youngest has Orcs. I also enter my painted models into painting competitions.

the attached photos are of some of my models painted to competition standard, i just wish i had a macro lense for my camera to take better photo's, each rat model is under 1 inch in height.
 
Yesterdays food (Sunday 15th Jan)

Breakfast: none
Lunch: none
Snack: Super Choc Drumstick
Supper: Roast hogget and baked potato (Ate too much, the meat was wonderfully tender and full of flavour and even though i knew i was full i still ate a couple of extra slices)

Water: 1.5 litres
Exercize: 2 km walking to my front gate and back twice, 15 minutes skipping.


This morning i feel a queezy after all the meat last night as it went through me like a freight train. It has not affected me on the scales so thats ok (Monday morning is my usual weigh in). looks like my body just won't accept some foods anymore and i should of listned to it last night not just my taste buds. I will be leaving for the gym shortly and see if it makes me feel a little better.

I guess in a way I do, but I think that is just my personality type showing through. I am an type and I can be a bit serious for some people but usually just plain weird, i prefer ecentric :)

My workout was ok this morning but feel it was a bit on the easy side, now i am used to the new exercizes it is time to push up the weight and intensity.
 
Hey Tru, keep up the wonderful work!! :) Out of curiousity what is your key sign for upping your weight limit? I mean what do you consider "getting easy"? I'm trying to determine when to up mine also.
