Raxie Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 NEWSFLASH! Mixing veganaise and sriracha together to go on my wrap for lunch was by far one of the best food ideas I've ever had (went perfectly with the sesame garlic tempeh and veggies). Bahhh srirachaaaa that sounds AMAZING! Also tempehhhh <3 forty-seven: Raxie and the Joining of Unlike Things << previous challenges >> >> instagram || goodreads << Link to comment
Ceasefire Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Sriracha/mayo goodness is my new favorite thing. I want to put it on everything now *drool* Isn't that basically Subway's new thing now? It's delicious, but I had to ask for more sauce. ._. Pixie Ranger Drunk on Tea~ (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ Link to comment

Batgirl Posted November 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Day 1 report: Workout:Lifted heavy things Squats: 25 pounds Bench Press: 45 pounds Rows: 60 pounds (I'm a little amazed at myself that I can row that much) Diet:1793 calories. I had a green smoothie for breakfast, tempeh wrap for lunch and then tofu scrambles, sauteed zucchini and whole wheat toast for dinner (breakfast for dinner *drool*). Also some tasty nuts and a pear for snacks.My day was 100% veganAlso I drank all my water (barely, I guzzled the last 8 oz or so right before bed)And I didn't eat any fries Sewing:I sewed the sleeves back into my husband's imperial uniform and when we tried it on, it's still a little big. Aaaaaaarg! My husband is oddly shaped. It's annoying as hell. Other than the bigness, it looks completely awesome. I should be done by the end of the week. Then I can focus on BATGIRL!

JessFit Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 I'm kind of surprised that you're benching 45 but only squatting 25. Maybe I missed this somewhere but what program (if any) are you following? It looks like a great workout though!

Batgirl Posted November 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 I'm doing stronglifts but It took me a while to get the form right on my squats.

Batgirl Posted November 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 I made a breakfast burrito out of leftover tofu-scrambles and veggies from last night, along with a ton of salsa. It was SUPER tasty but I think next time I should bring the filling and the tortilla seperate, heat it up and assemble it at work. I couldn't quite get it hot enough in the middle. It was YUM though. And filling. I might be too full for my afternoon snack.

Batgirl Posted November 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Back to bench pressing, I think my ability to bench press 45 pounds might have something to do with the years I've spent playing airplane with small children.

Batgirl Posted November 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Also on benchpresses: When I'm bench pressing, I'm not lifting any of my own bodyweight (same with rows and overhead presses and stuff). I figure when I'm squatting, I'm lifting an extra 50 pounds or so just from being overweight.

I figure when I'm squatting, I'm lifting an extra 50 pounds or so just from being overweight.Maybe, I've never thought about it like that, do you struggle with the squat at 25 pounds? How long have you been doing it at 25 pounds? Are you working progressions of the weight? Are you following a program or just making stuff up at you go? I ask because this goes against most of what I experienced while lifting. I'm only benching 70 ish but I'm squatting 160 and my squat was always much higher and progressed much faster than my bench. Most women's seem to, so I'm being nosey Warrior, Ravenclaw, book lover, history nerd, Red Sonja wannabe Current Challenge Battle Log Link to comment
Batgirl Posted November 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 I'm doing stronglifts. But I have terrible, terrible knees (stupid high school gym class) so I wanted to make sure I had my form PERFECT before adding weight. I'm adding 5 pounds per week. I'm not struggling but it's like WORK. By the time I'm done, I could probably do one or two more but not many more than that. I'm 70ish pounds overweight so I'm definitely hauling around a lot of extra pounds on my butt.

JessFit Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Gotcha gotcha! I think you'll see that your squat can shoot up in weight faster once you're owning the form.
