Maybe he had a killer dump to take care of as he weighed.  |  IP: Logged Mike Heenan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1896 From: Scottsdale, AZ, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 11-07-2004 01:17 PM                     Heh, that would explain it!  |  IP: Logged Jennifer Pan THE JEN! Posts: 1219 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: Nov 2003 posted 11-07-2004 01:57 PM                        That's just gross Brad. Supposedly, Chris told me it wasn't fat weight but "non" fat weight.  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan."

On average, provided you're not taking steroids or any other type of growth hormone, most men cannot gain anymore than about 10 pounds of lean muscle weight per year. To do any better than that, you have to have a carefully designed weightlifting program and an even more carefully designed diet. Just look at what professional body builders have to do on their work out schedules and eating schedules. It's a hell of a lot of work, really a full time job. On top of that, genetics play a big role in the process. Most people could work the hell out of themselves in the gym and not do too awful much more than just get nicely cut. On the bright side, most women are turned on much more by guys with a Bruce Lee type physique than someone who looks like Arnold Swarzenegger.  |  IP: Logged Jennifer Pan THE JEN!

Dang, now I need to go workout too.  |  IP: Logged Rachel Craven Madam Moderator Posts: 2190 From: Pensacola, FL Registered: Dec 2000 posted 11-07-2004 08:55 PM                     Thanks Jen! Yeah, I'd pick Bruce Lee over good ol' Arnold anyday. In both Arnolds present and past state, have you seen his belly lately?  |  IP: Logged Chris Hipp Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1462 From: Mesquite, Tx (east of Dallas) Registered: Jul 2003 posted 11-07-2004 10:49 PM                     who knows, All I know is that I get on a scale and where I weighed 160lbs before I now weigh 190. This is weighing without shoes and with very thin/light pajama pants on. Brad is right about defecating though, you can easily drop a couple of pounds. I would say what I am doing to gain the weight but since you have already assumed that I am lying I will jsut let you keep assuming. However, I will say that I am most definitely not on any drugs.  |  IP: Logged Jennifer Pan THE JEN! Posts: 1219 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: Nov 2003 posted 11-08-2004 01:19 AM                        I believe you Chris. It just left me questioning the possibilities, because I found it odd. It's good that drugs don't have any part in it. I remember when I started working last summer. I had lost 15 lbs in two weeks. I didn't notice the weight loss until people said it to me. So I weighed myself... repeatedly... hoping the scale was wrong.  |  IP: Logged Rachel Craven Madam Moderator Posts: 2190 From: Pensacola, FL Registered: Dec 2000 posted 11-18-2004 11:14 AM                     Lost 8 lbs my first week at Weight Watchers!!! Ian, how you doing, you haven't updated to us in a while...  |  IP: Logged Ian Price Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1714 From: Denver, CO Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-18-2004 04:13 PM                     Weight loss since my last post one fricken ounce! Rachel, congratulations. Weight Watchers is a good program. Last week I was unable to maintain my diet and ate over my points allowance every day. It was good that I didn't gain weight. This week I think I have been better but we'll see on Saturday which is my weigh-in day. I've played it a little loose this week as well, but I think I haven't abused it as much as last week so here's hoping. A few weeks back I was on Cape Cod visiting my father, I bought cranberries from the cranberry bog out behind my father's house. Last night I made the cranberry pie out of the cookbook. I used a store bought pie shell. My mother used to make cranberry bread so I thought the pie sounded exotic and extremely cranberry. I have never heard of nor seen a cranberry pie. It was very tangy. Pie isn't exactly the best thing to have around the house. I took my pie to work in the hopes that my employees would make a sufficient dent in it that I could have the rest around the house and not overindulge. They loved it. I was able to take half the pie home and portion it out over then next few nights. I have one slice left for tonight. I have enough cranberries left over to make cranberry bread which I am sure is also not on my diet. Then we have so many morning events that I haven't been able to get my running in. I ran last Monday, but I haven't been able to go running since. I hope to run tomorrow on Friday, but that will mean only twice this week. Between the holidays coming up, my baking desert and the days growing shorter and colder, it will make it challenging to maintain my diet. Tune in after Saturday to see how I did this week. Food today: 28 points allowed Yogurt & Cereal 4-points English Muffin w/ marmolade 3-points 4 oz Grapefruit Juice 1-point Coffee w/ Half & Half 1-point Coffee w/ packet of hot chocolate 2-points 1/2 PB&J 4-points 8 oz Soup 2-points Points left 11 Points for Pie 7 Points left for dinner 4 Wait a minute, that doesn't work.  |  IP: Logged Mike Heenan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1896 From: Scottsdale, AZ, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 11-19-2004 03:29 PM                     Congratulations Rachel! Nice work...  |  IP: Logged Rachel Craven Madam Moderator Posts: 2190 From: Pensacola, FL Registered: Dec 2000 posted 11-19-2004 03:37 PM                     Thanks Ian and Mike! Ian, if you like sweets that much may I suggest trying Healthy Choice Ice Cream Fudge Bars (something like that), they are only worth 2 points each and they are pretty big. The weight watchers carrot cakes are pretty good too but they're real small, worth 1 point.  |  IP: Logged Ian Price Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1714 From: Denver, CO Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-20-2004 12:14 PM                     Weight this week: 225.1 lbs. Weight Loss this week: 3.0 lbs. Total Weight Loss: 73.1 lbs. All while eating cranberry pie! I'm glad I got that monkey off my chest. This week the group leader talked about strategies for not overindulging at Thanksgiving. She also asked what we are doing for Thanksgiving. I'm going the avoidance route. I'm working at the theatre Thanksgiving Day and then retiring home alone and cooking up some low-cal feast. I'm going to prepare something like Turkey cutlets, brown & wild rice, mashed yams, green beans and a salad. Oh yea, and maybe another cranberry pie. What are you doing for Thanksgiving?  |  IP: Logged Rachel Craven Madam Moderator Posts: 2190 From: Pensacola, FL Registered: Dec 2000 posted 11-20-2004 10:24 PM                     Congrats Ian!!! Luckily I'm making the dinner this year so I can decide what we're both eating. Planning on turkey breast, mixed sauteed veggies, and I'm letting Don pick either stuffing or mashed potatoes. If I make it, I'll eat it so there is no way I'm making both!  |  IP: Logged Jason Black Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1723 From: Myrtle Beach, SC, USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 11-21-2004 12:20 AM                        Rachel, That's a no brainer.. stuffing... and I grew up on mashed tater's  |  IP: Logged
