Tuesday 8/22/05

This is Day 12 of Melting Point. Nothing unusual to report today. My weight is up more than the typical weekend increase. I was 159# this morning, which is about 4# over where I started. Aside from the bloating that had me spooked for a minute, I think I like this product. Being able to see the outlines of my muscles coming through clearer is pretty cool. My goodness. What would happen if I actually cleaned up my weekend cheats? :snack:

uHockey: Once the test is done, can I stack Melting Point with Tight? I'd have the Tight pre-workout and the Melting Point with my meals? I also have some Power Jolt on the way.

bike: 30 min, 8.53 mi, Avg HR 138-145 <== {Interesting: No intervals, stayed at Level 3 the majority of the time, sweated well, but no heavy breathing.}
leg raises: 3 sets x 15
bicycle: 3 sets x 15
plank: 3 sets x 20
stomach vacuums: 13s, 15s, 16s, 15s, 15s

Melting Point is stackable with any fat burner, but I would recommend 1/2 dosing if being utilized with a sesamin product such as Avant's Sesathin or the new products by MAN and Scivation. It is pretty cool to see weight go up yet fat go away, huh?

Why did I write Tight when I meant Farenheit? And what's worse, I knew I had written the wrong thing because I woke up out of a dream about it and remembered I had to change it? :sleepy:

I swear, my mind is gone!

SouthCaliDiva · 08-26-2005, 05:53 AM

These are Days 13 and 14 of Melting Point. Only one week left to the test. I like this product so far, so I definitely will be getting a bottle next week when I get paid.

Wednesday 8/24/05
157.5#
bike w/u: 5 min, 1.33 m iles
pushups: (w) 12, (m) 9, 8, 9
incline db press: 15x12, 32.5x8, 32.5x8, 32.5x7
incline db flys: 30x8, 30x8, 30x8 [color=blue]{reduce this weight next week}
db pullover: 25x8, 25x8, 25x8
cable pushdown: 25x10, 30x9, 35x8
db triceps extension: 15x10, 20x9, 20x8

Thursday 8/25/05
156#
bike: 20 min, 5.64 miles, Avg HR 135-140

My abs still hurt from Wednesday's pushups. My legs and lower back are feeling really toasty. All I did this morning was the 20 min on the bike, so I don't know where the leg/back soreness could be coming from. Wouldn't describe it as crampy feeling, so I don't believe it is the Melting Point. Developed a bit of a headache this afternoon. Thought it was from straining to read sloppy work all day, but at almost 10pm (and after 2 Advil) it's still here. Suppose it could be stress; between my job, the HOA, and men in general, I'm about 2 minutes from postal. :machinegu Night all, I'm going to bed.

Hey SCD just wondering why your weight fluctuates so much? Do you weight yourself at different times?

If we could make a product to help with all of that I'd say Matt would be a billionaire.

No, I weigh myself the same time each day. About 5am after visiting the facilities. I am convinced the weekend (i.e. short-term water weight) fluctuations are because I cheat. I basically have no structure on the weekends, and at least one meal involves some fat, salt, and alcohol.

Regarding the fat not leaving permanently when I appear to always be in a calorie deficit, my current theory is that because I'm probably menopausal, my hormones could be affecting my ability to get rid of the fat. That's why I started using the progesterone cream.

From: http://www.johnleemd.com/store/nat_progesterone.html

Quote:

Progesterone is a specific molecule made by mammals and has multiple roles in your body. It effects every tissue in your body including the uterus, cervix, and vagina, the endocrine (hormonal) system, brain cells, fat metabolism, thyroid hormone function, water balance, peripheral nerve myelin sheath synthesis, bone cells, energy production and thermogenesis, the immune system, survival and development of the embryo, and growth and development of the fetus. Though referred to as a sex hormone, progesterone conveys no specific secondary sex characteristics and as such cannot be called a male or female hormone.
