In to see you get your goals.

on the subway foot long is that a 6 inch or foot long? If Im not mistaken foot long has 100 carbs. I dose my raspberry ketones and four per day, per right before my first two meals. If i forget I just take it with the next meal usually.

how old are you?

It was a footlong. I usually don't consume a ton a carbs (I would normally get a 6in), but for some reason today I was just abnormally starving because I missed my mid-morning whey shake. I am going to try to follow the same dosing you do. It seems to make the most sense at this point. I almost did forget tonight to take it before dinner, but I got it in. I am 33 years old.

GREAT start to the log man!

In for some great results

Saturday, July 28th

Weight: I am only going to weigh myself twice a week on Mondays and Fridays. I feel that this would ultimately be the best way to keep track without losing motivation if I gain a few ounces. I know that my weight fluctuates throughout the day by a pound or two depending on my water consumption and food intake, therefore I will also be trying to weigh myself at the same time everyday and hopefully on the same scale.

Wake: 8am

Breakfast: I skipped breakfast today and went straight towards the gym

Pre-Workout: 1 scoop whey and 1 scoop pre-workout

Workout: I am trying to get back into my Rugby season schedule as Rugby season is right around corner. Saturdays are normally game days and focus is normally set on performing for two solid 40 minutes halves. So with that today I focused on 40 minutes of heavy HIIT. I did 2 minutes of heavy work (sprinting at 7mph) and then did 3 minutes of walking (3.5mph). I will eventually change this up as I get my cardio back to peak. Then I focused on 20 minutes of body weight style exercises like burpees, prisoner squats, jumping jacks, pushups and, walking lunges. To top it all off I took a 20 minutes light jog around this park by my gym (I did the HIIT on a treadmill, the treadmills at my gym can be programmed for interval training, I then did the rest at the park).

Post-Workout: 1 scoop whey and casein
1 large red delicious apple

Lunch: 3 cups spring mix salad
1/2 cup chopped rotisserie chicken breast
1 tablespoon olive oil
Generous shaking of balsamic vinegar

Dinner: 8oz Grilled Tri-Tip
1 medium sweet potato plain (I like the flavor, no need for additions)
1 cup spring mix with 2 tbsp light vinaigrette

Before Bed: 1 scoop casein mixed with water

I changed my dosing today of Raspberry Ketones at the suggestion of JohnSmeton. I am now taking 2 pills before each breakfast (in todays case it was before pre-workout) and dinner. This seemed to make missing a dose almost impossible as you have dinner to make up for missing one.

Water Intake: 1 gallon almost even

Motivation Level: This is a new feature that I would like to add, it will give you an idea as to how I was feeling throughout the day as well as at workout. Today I was feeling really motivated and couldn't wait to get into the gym.

Thanks for stopping by.

August 2, 2012

Sorry for taking a few days off. I went on a camping trip with my family that took me out of the range of WiFi. However that didn't stop me from doing body weight type workouts and doing crude type things like chopping wood and carrying potable water jugs to camp. I also ate pretty clean with everything either being done on the fire or grill.

Breakfast: 4 egg whites with spinach and onions scrambled

when you take your RK pre workout... do you notice an increase in body temp?

[TGates13]

I have noticed that I am sweating a little more than usual. I don't really know if that would be due to increase of body temp. I am really curious about this now and I am going to find a thermometer and experiment with it. I will let you know. For those of you following, I won't be doing another update until tomorrow.

let me know how your experiment turns out

[TGates13]

It looks like the iPad App may not be working as I have typed up my post twice now and submitted and it did not post (as I am now alsorealing that my post from Friday the 3rd didn't post either). In a nutshell as I really don't want to have to retype this again.

Weight on August 6th, 2012: 293.4

I have been taking RK two caps twice a day 30 minutes before breakfast and lunch

I experimented with temperatures and 1 hour before taking RK: 99.2
1 hour after taking RK: 100.1

It raised my body temp by just under one degree.

Hope this all works for you, sorry for them technical glitches.

Very interesting. It would be cool to see this repeated 10-15 times to take out experimental error/equipment variation.

agreed.

when I take raspberry ketones before my first two meals I notice I heat up quite a bit. Eating food also raises temperature.

I will continue to take my temp then as a part of this log.

I have put up two new logs this weekend and neither have appeared. I have having some serious issues here. To make things quick, I have had a great weekend. I jumped on the scale this afternoon after playing a little pick up basketball and I was pleasantly surprised to see that I was 290.7. I just wanted to quickly post that up as the log I put up on Friday never appeared. Hope you all had a great weekend. I have the day off tomorrow and I plan on fixing my computer issues, so hopefully I can get a good report up by Tuesday.

Glad to hear it's workin for ya. I have had issues with the forum too before. If you fix your computer and it still messes up, tell a mod and see if they can fix it.

[JohnSmeton]

wondering if you have any updates?

Incorporating sports type exercises like basketball and football maybe even soccer is a lot better than being on the treadmill for 30minutes lol or at least its a lot more fun and less boring
