Cant upload pics. Kept timing out cause international link down.

Things

- After a few minutes on the treadmill yesterday I started to smell pungent & I had funny taste in my mouth. Legs were killing me so I stopped. I remembered hving the same smell & taste last week when I first break my average 7.0km/h mark - a bit of googling and they say that it's either the smell of acetoacetic acid from ketosis or it could also be the smell of ammonia from amino acid breakdown (body was eating protein because I was going too fast and tak sempat want to burn fat dy, or something like that). Since I didnt pay attention which smell was it (pee smell or nail polish remover smell) they recommend peeing on a diabetes detection stick which measures my ketone level in urine. Stick so exp Rm7/pc

- I am feeling ravenous now. Looking forward to all-you-can-eat pasta deal @ Itallianies today.

- My shoes are deteriorating. I just bought them a couple of months ago and they look really really sad. Hang on there, shoes.

- There are still some left-over Glucophage in my drawer. Guess I'm not going to need ya anytime soon, buddy.

- Bought 2 more bottles of LS7 and a bottle of MX-LS7. And some Splenda. Will only arrive here next year, tho. Been checking out creatine & l-glutamine supplements. Might need them if I keep on losing muscle. I'm super broke already so I guess there will be no new handphone & gadget & clothes & shoes & fancy makeups & toiletries & travel for the whole of next year. F**k. Need to shamelessly ask bf for more $$

- I'll be getting my body-composition scale from dear Mai today, looking forward to hving some serious fun with it .

- Am buying a pair of sports bra and new workout tops for myself. Happy 24th me!

Can fit. They're oh so pretty

haha.. syd g.. u one hardcore girl there.. u wanna squat 80kg minimum right? haha!! good luck! that'll scare half the guys away in LYN..

just a thought... i don't think u should waste money on glutamine and creatine.. they're a waste of money.. just eat right and make sure u get all the sufficient nutrients and just take in your normal vitamins and u're pretty good off..

happy B day..

oh your burfday ..

HAPPY BURFDAY

Ya 80kg. 34kg/side (68kg + 12kg bar) Possible onot? I set it that way cause I can do 20kg/side with Smith albeit only 5 reps. Hv 363 more days to go! My dream is to be able to carry my future kids/husband around in times of emergency. Ok it may sound too corny but sometimes the mother hen hormone gives me funny ideas in my head

Will take your advice on glutamine n creatine. ON whey already contains a decent amount of glutamine and I'll only do creatine if I hit a plateau. Currently I'm often dehydrated due to the amount of diuretics I take and that effects muscle weight and made me believe that I'm losing precious muscles due to doing cardio after weights.

Thank you nezzy

Wah 120kg where? Here in Malaysia? Makes me feel like a sad wannabe only Anyway I decided to do this because I'm reaping lots of benefits - focus, discipline & makes me eat healthily. I also enjoy the attention sometimes especially when I'm doing leg presses and squats alone

Most guys I saw @ the gym are OBSESSED with bench press. Summore with orgasm sound

i'm a dude

i cant squat 120 kg

i died at 90 kg, sucks man

At least it's more than ur bodyweight

nezzy how heavy is the Olympic bar @ the squat & bench rack? 20kg or 12kg?

..Heh... with plenty of cheerleaders around (of the same gender), may I say so?

hahahaha....yea in malaysia syd..120kg..as heavy as me..i went like WTF....im a sissy
