Transformation Day 23, So Very Sorry :(

Hey Transformers

I am so very sorry. The last couple of weeks at my job have been very busy for me and I've been slacking on my blogs. Not only that, I'm also slacking on reading all of your blogs as well. Currenly I'm loading Vista on all my work machines and it takes me about two hour per computer and I have about 30 to do. On a good note, I wanted to let all of you know that I have not missed a single workout. However, I did have one cheat day because I have some friends that are moving away and we threw them a little going away party one night at a local sports bar and I ate a Philly Steak Sammich. But I made it up by doing some good cardio :)

My goals this week is to catch up on everyone's blogs and keep all of you updated each day by doing my own blogs as well.

Transformation Day 15 & 16

Busy Busy Busy :0)

That how the last few days have been for me. But not busy enough that I haven't been able to get my workouts in :)

This past Saturday I got my cardio in and also got my new TV. A friend came over Sunday and helped me install a door and storm door. I've had this for about 3 months now and it has been sitting in my garage ever since. I have to keep the wifey happy :)

Monday I got up did my UBWO and helped the same guy that helped me with my doors take down his kids trampoline. He is moving at the end of the month.

Mood: FANTASIC :)

Meals Planned:

Meal 1: Whole Wheat English Muffin, 1 Egg White, 1 Turkey Sausage and 2 glasses of water

Meal 2: Protein Shake, Apple and 2 glasses of water

Meal 3: Tilapia and Green Beans. Now where did I put that Carb? Oh there it is, an apple and 2 glasses of water. Here is a little Tilapia recipe. Portion sizes are real small so 3 pieces of talapia is a portion for me. So I made 3 servings, egg substitute to lay the fish in to batter in WASA crackers all crumbed up as fine as you can get it. I crumbled about 9 pieces of WASA crackers. Then spray Olive Oil in pan and cook on both sides until done. Take about 5 minutes total to cook fish and woot almost fried Tilapia Fish :) I sure hope I spelling that fish right hehehe. Oh I made this the night before.

Meal 4: Protein Shake, Orange and 2 glasses of water

Meal 5: EFL Goulash and 2 glasses of water

Sarah is my best friends wife. I'm going to be a little sad today when we play because they will be moving at the end of the month to North Carolina. My wife and I have been friends with them for almost 10 years now and they are like family. No they are family. That's how close we are. Sarah's husband, Greg, and I have worked with each other for a while now. Both in the Air Force reserve and both of us have Government Civilian Jobs. Well he got a good over over in NC and they are leaving us :( Me so sad. They both have two wonderful kids who love me and Brandi to death and vice versus.

Transformation Day 10

Well today is another exciting day. I did a killing UBWO this morning and I was heavily breathing the whole time. I got really motivated this morning after watching last night episode of the biggest loser. It came down to the weigh in and the oldest ever on Biggest Loser, Jerry and heavist boy , Daniel, that is 19 hit the bottom of the line. They were both on the same team at that and Jillian wanted them both to stay. It came down for the young boy to stay. I looked over at my wife and she getting all teary eyed. ME? I was trying to hide myself because I was worse. Today all I could think about was him while I was working out.

On another note, I took my son to the cardiologist and he told me Chris didn't have high Cholesterol and his BP was normal yesterday. However, he still wants to find out why Chris is having Chest Pains while he runs as well as find out why he had high BP a few weeks ago. We will be running more test later this month and I will keep you posted.

Today I did my UBWO at 5:30 am

Transformation Day 5, Great Day

What a wonderful day. I woke up about 20 minutes late this morning however, my wonderful wife got me up and we went to the gym together. I'm so really impressed how Brandi has been willing to get up with me in the mornings and hit them gym. Brandi loves getting her sleep in and I really commend her for having the discipline to get up with me and get fit. I was really proud of her this morning about another situation. She really hates to workout in front of people and she wanted to work on her abs. I'm not sure what you call the equipment, but you stand up on it and you can bring your legs to your stomach or you can lift your legs straight out in front of you. She was a little worried about other people watching. I try and tell her not to worry about other people and she even wanted me to stand in front of her to block the view. You have to love her, I smiled and I told her that I had to do my workouts too. So, while I was working on my biceps I looked over and she went and did it anyway. Way to go baby :)

Today I worked my upper body and added some abs workout in. Plus I did 20 minutes on the crossramp machine.

Meal Plan:

This morning 2 glasses of water and orange before the gym.

Meal 1 Oatmeal with Chocolate Protein, 2 glasses of water

Meal 2 Protein Shake, Orange and 2 glasses of water

Meal 3 Brown Rice, Tuna, Broccoli 2 glass of water

Meal 4 Protein Shake, Apple, 2 glasses of water

Meal 5 Baked Chicken, Brown Rice, Veggies and 2 glasses
