caolan Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 So I dove right in to my mini-challenge yesterday. I went out to lunch at a mediterranean-style restaurant and ordered grilled salmon kabob with rice, couscous, and a lot of vegetables. The good thing about this meal is that I had plenty of options to create a mixed "salmon plus something-I-actually-like" bite. The salmon didn't kill me, but I didn't finish the meal excited or in love with fish. I'll try to find another chance this week to incorporate something that lives in the water into my meals. 3 Quote Level 4 RangerSTR 10 / DEX 6 / STA 6 / CON 8 / WIS 6 / CHA 5Completed Challenges / PVP's: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | YAYOG | 20-in-10Current Challenges / PVP's: 5 Link to comment

I like stir-fry's (<=probably bad spelling, sorry) with prawns because they absorb a lot of flavor from the other ingredients. Still thinking about what I could do for this quest. I actually like all the food Ok, maybe not all the food but it is pretty hard to think of something.

It's a cold day in hell when I see it in pubs in London but sometimes you can get lucky. They're often at beer festivals though if you're hitting any of them. 1 Quote Current challenge: http://rebellion.nerdfitness.com/index.php?/topic/70839-bendy-dradis-stands-up-proper/ Link to comment

Stronkey Kong Posted October 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 I'm up 7 pounds since the start of this... I'm going the wrong way. At least the pants I'm wearing, fit better than they did the last time I climbed this high. I've been under a lot of work stress, and I'm undergoing a major reboot of priorities. Basically, I have less time to spend at the gym, but I can still manage my diet. The macros I've been following were meant for heavy lifting 3-4x / week. I will have to adjust to make them for only 1-2x / week. And I'll be cutting more severely in coming weeks. Hopefully that will turn things around. 2 Quote ===================================================================================================== --Stronkey Kong-- Link to comment

Blaidd Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 I'm down 1.8lbs since last week's weigh in. Which totally shocked me cos it was my bday yesterday and I totally splurged on the food side over the weekend. Ok, i fib a little, i didn't splurge on food (it was mostly high protein, high veg content with only one piece of cake). But i did go to town on the alcoholic drinks (way too much champers at my bestie's engagement party on saturday and then my bday lunch was at a restaurant that prides itself in having 99 different types of beer). unfortunately for me i've fluctuated at the weight i am now for almost 2 years and it's driving me mad. I am taking this week to evaluate how many carbs i pack in when i'm not forcing watching myself on that front. Then for 3 weeks from next week i will drop the carbs by a few grams/ounces and see how that works, then move on etc. I need to do this in much smaller chunks and not such huge ambitions. I keep forgetting that i'm a babysteps kinda person. 1 Quote Half Faerie (Sidhe) Scout | Black Belt Kitchen Ninja "A positive attitude will not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort" - Herm Albright You're welcome to skype me (audriwolf) too but let me know who you are My challenge Link to comment

Unfortunately, no... muscle really doesn't grow that fast. I have replaced fat with muscle over the past year. But, my pants are still tighter at 258, than at 248. Umm... I guess the point is that I'm better than I was a year ago, but worse than a month ago. That's a good thing. 2 Quote ===================================================================================================== --Stronkey Kong-- Link to comment

Briguy Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 I went in at 300.2 again yesterday, stressing a little again and put to much on my plate. I am going to stop driving in for exercise 3 days a week and only do one. That means I will have to walk more and do it on my own. I am hoping with doing less I will be able to do more health wise.
