My Bounce Back...

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving, I know my stomach did!  I took the weekend of Thanksgiving to be a cheat weekend.  I have been very good for 9 months, I think I deserved it. :)  I am now working that off, still. With my "cheating" came consequences I was prepared for, I just didn't think it would be as much or take this long to get back to my pre-Thanksgiving weight.  Lesson learned.  I was able to be with family and with great friends on the Sunday after.

A few random thoughts;
There are very few songs that I will turn the radio station immediately when I hear.  I now have 2. "Bottom's Up" and "Like a G6." Horrible.

Glucosamine, chondrotine with MSM combined with a good Fish Oil is GREAT for your joints.

It's amazing how quick your pill case fills up when you work at a Vitamin store.  Go in to a Vitamin Shoppe and have them build you a basket based on your needs. You will be amazed by the results.

Equilibrium, Starring Christian Bale, is one of the best action movies I have ever seen.  It's like the Matrix, but MORE  AWESOME!

Using a movie rental kiosk and paying a dollar is 100 times better then going into a store and paying $5 to rent the same thing.

Anything you are doing differently for the better, is more healthy than what you were doing.  If you were eating fast food 5 days a week and are now down to 2 and the other 3 you are bringing a healthy lunch, that is a good change.  Baby steps.

Finally, I was hesitant to start taking "extras" to help with my workout, now I can't don't want to think about what it is going to be like if I run out.  A pre-workout is awesome, I may have mentioned that before. I recently added A-AKG powder by Olympian Labs to my pre-workout.  I love what I am feeling.  I also added BCAA & Glutamine to my post-workout Protein shake.  The soreness is gone. I highly recommend this to anybody.  FYI a Blender Bottle is worth the extra money.  The first night I put the BCAA & Glutamine in my protein shake in my regular shaker cup, it was very chalky and very well mixed. The next night in the Blender Bottle, I could barely tell it was in there. Invest in a Blender Bottle.

I am really not trying to turn this into a commercial for Vitamin Shoppe, but if you have questions about anything I have talked about either talk to me or go into one.  They know what they are talking about.

Good luck in your pursuit of 225
