It has been a bumpy last few weeks but in this till the end. Have a great weekend everyone!

Tonight will be a test of my will power. Company safety dinner is tonight and it's at a Brazilian steakhouse..... 16 different cuts of meat...... so much protein to take in....

The test of will power will be when it comes to the desserts..... shouldn't be too tough.

Hmm beef! Fancy meat. I could never say no...
But desert, I hear people use cheat day to eat what they want...so I say dig in. But you might be full of steakss and water to eat desserts

Enjoy! One meal indulgence shouldn't be too bad, no guilt, have fun and get back on track!

I did eat like I wanted to, didn't worry about numbers because I watch what I eat every day. I didn't over do it because once I was starting to feel full, I stopped. I had lots of different meats but small portions. I actually did enjoy it. Hell, I even had a few different desserts but only finished one of them. Guys were making bets on how I would eat and someone told me they lost $10 when I came back with a dessert dish.

Then..... I still made it home in time to hit the gym!

Good job on the protein feast! I usually have a couple of great days in the gym after one... Only two weeks left in this comp...

[tjwoody]

had a family thing to go to, ate like an animal.
that is all.

I second this

[anti-bonk]

Must confess this weekend was a fail. Was in buddy's wedding yesterday so the busy weekend with no workouts and bad food choices. So close to the end which means buckle down. I must say after seeing pics of the wedding I can tell I have made significant improvement but am still embarrassed at how far I have to go. So that was a little taste of reality.

[TMcDermid]

5:20 AM here and time to start this week in 5th gear. Been treading water for a bit but hoping to have a solid 2 weeks of progress. Tear it up everybody!

[beefcake66]

Well, I seemed to have gotten unsubscribed from this thread at some point... found it again though! phew!

I had a deece weekend. Did a lot of drinking Saturday night.

[biggoron]

Did a 10k yesterday. Would have never considered that 2 years ago lol

[InfiniteForward]

Props. How long did it take?

[biggoron]

Props. How long did it take?

Thanks. 1 hour, 22 mins. but i didnt train for it at all lol. been a rough winter/spring this year. On the positive, I now have a time and pace to beat for the next one.

[gobbles23]

2 week left! HOY!

Good on you for taking on this challenge.

2 week left! HOY!

Getting down to crunch time eh?

[lsbowen1]

Hope everyone has a productive Monday. Don't forget to smash the gym and your diet

[rocketman766]

Smashed???? Obliterated it! Awesome chest/tri day. Added weight to all lifts for all sets/reps. Only getting better.

[chavostrong]

Ah lets put it back to 1st or 2nd gear.
5th is just a slow/cruiser gear.... Or 3rd if many of you already accomplished your goals.
--------
Starting the morning session with abs then chest, arms, maybe some legs. Been on the bus for 2 weeks. And a fine time for me to get sick on the last 2 weeks of this comp... Hell its not gonna stop me!!!!

[live4gs]

that is all.

Once again I can relate. Wife & I spent weekend to help her aunt with her sick uncle. Her aunt is a great cook and just like a mom that she is. She cooks great Mexican food and her plates are never small. But on a good note I did find a great nature park and hit about 4.5 miles of walking yesterday.

[ms_mac]

Finally warming up around these parts. I ran on the treaddie at the gym this morning because it was still chilly - 0' celsius when I dropped my little guy off at school. Ran 6.6 miles. BORING! When I came out when I was done it was beautiful, sunny and warm. I wish I had waited. Hoping its nice again on Thurs when I do my sprints.

Keep on keepin'on, OBF'ers. Almost to the end.

[EjnarKolinkar]

Power sagged a bit in yesterday's military press work. Redeemed myself with the DL session today. Cals are at the "this sucks" level lol.

We almost there there though all, have a good week

[rocketman766]

Finally warming up around these parts. I ran on the treaddie at the gym this morning because it was still chilly - 0' celsius when I dropped my little guy off at school.

0° C is chilly????? Here in Texas I call 65°F chilly ( 20°C ). If it gets below 50 I have a coat on. I lived in Buffalo, NY for 6 years and was miserable for about 9 months a year. At least you will be able to get some real scenery when you run.

MY New York?!!? MY?!!? Cursing myyyyyyyyy home?!!?

[laurenrun262]

Finally warming up here too. It's 50 right now and I'm out enjoying the sun. So nice to run without rice on the ground.

[rocketman766]

MY New York?!!? MY?!!? Cursing myyyyyyyyy home?!!?

For about 9 months of the year..... yes. For the whole 3 weeks of summer, it was great! Texans and snow don't go well together... I'm still tied to the state, I still own the house I bought there.

Love that meme!
