It's such a stressful time, so if you can't train around it, diet around it, or vice versa. ______________________ 'Hello Madam, I am calling from you bank' |

| In the Cellar Join Date: Dec 2007 Location: VT...USA Posts: 475 Rep Power: ![]() | Thanks Chris And Tall...Funny because I read Tall's post before I went to work this morning so I've had all day to chew on it... The more I thought about it the more I realized it will be very difficult to stay the course as I struggle tremendously with my diet that I'll use almost any excuse to miss a meal...But keeping my eyes-wide open to the fact that this will become a issue I hopefully will continue to make most of my meals the night before so that I can ( as MIDDLE AGED put it ) stay methodical and not sway to far...I definately don't want it to be a case of two steps forwards, three steps back...As for swimming...Before I broke my shoulder I loved to swim but haven't done so since...Coming into the summer months I will look for reasons to do so and get over that obstacle when the time arises...Funny about the smoking...before I thought we actually had a chance of buying a house I promised my wife I would quit when we bought a house. ( I make it a habit not to break promises to her unless it is completely out of my hands and this isn't )...So as per Pikey's suggestion I have a date of the morning of August 1st 2008. It will save me $140.00USD a month and I will have plenty of places for that money to be spent else where. I will not sacrifes my workouts.

| i too struggle with weekend meal quality and times as the structure from work makes me eat at the right times and prepare my food more. good idea fatboy, even if i just done that with a meal or 2 would prob make things better as i become a lazy arse at the weekend except for when i train that is ______________________ "Lack of will power has caused more failure than lack of intelligence or ability."
