Bit of tumult this weekend...
I have decided to let my Coach go. There are a few reasons but I feel I have to do what I feel is right and move on. I wont write about it here because I dont want to talk shit about anyone.
Ill keep up the work and I feel comfortable that I can do this myself. I have a BF% measure on Wednesday and Ill see what I want to do after that.

O MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!! Olive oil flavored with truffles... sooo tasty, just a little on your fresh mushrooms in the frying-pan is heaven! I tried it last weekend at my friends and on salad its fantastic.. loooove it

unfortunately my belly has gone haywire again... started at the gym and im not sure if I dare to go out tonight.. it has 2 hours to settle but Im not happy about it :(
Im in a super duper mood today (might tell ya why later on ;) )
Tyres are sorted and house is clean and food is shopped! Having a bit of extra carbs today and feeling good. My belly has been a bit of upside down this week, nothing major just a little but Ive lost a bit of weight, 56.4 this morning so Im going to go a little higher than normal today. I need to fill up again. Ive lost a fair bit of fluids and its no good.
The leg is feeling better and thats great so I hope it will be alright next week, will have to take it very easy tho... fingers crossed... Looking forward to the gym today :p
Johanna's birthday party tonight, were meeting up in the city at 19.00 - no idea whats going to happen, itll be interesting no doubt!

New love!!! I just got pure whey delivered and did a protein fluff on it... fantastic... yummmmmmmy
love it love it love it! perfect end on a crappy night
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUK
I pulled my knee today. I did 10 minutes bike, then extensions and then squats, came up to 50 kg and zaaaaaaang it hurt like hell. I tried resting and tried squatting again... still hurt like hell. So i tried the leg press.. no good not even the extensions... so I had to mangle my calf's a bit extra instead :( Not happy!
And then I went to XXL that has a grand opening today. They had a special price on protein.... Its a sports store... and no luck... they had run out... not happy over that either.. me and another young fella stood talking shit about them after...
Interesting research!
BACKGROUND: Fatty acids (FAs) may be important dietary components that modulate osteoporotic fracture risk.

OBJECTIVE: The objective was to examine FA intake in relation to osteoporotic fractures.


DESIGN: The participants were postmenopausal women enrolled in the Women's Health Initiative (n = 137,486). Total fractures were identified by self-report; hip fractures were confirmed by medical record review. FA intake was estimated from baseline food-frequency questionnaires and standardized to total caloric intake. No data on omega-3 (n-3) FA supplements were available. Cox proportional hazard models were constructed to estimate risk of fracture.


RESULTS: Higher saturated FA consumption was associated with higher hip fracture risk [quartile 4 multivariate-adjusted hazard ratio (HR): 1.31; 95% CI: 1.11, 1.55; P for trend = 0.001]. Lower total fracture risk was associated with a higher monounsaturated FA intake (quartile 3 HR: 0.94; 95% CI: 0.89, 0.98; P for trend = 0.050) and polyunsaturated FA intake (quartile 4 HR: 0.95; 95% CI: 0.90, 0.99; P for trend = 0.019). Unexpectedly, higher consumption of marine n-3 FAs was associated with greater total fracture risk (quartile 4 HR: 1.07; 95% CI: 1.02, 1.12; P for trend = 0.010), whereas a higher n-6 FA intake was associated with a lower total fracture risk (quartile 4 HR: 0.94; 95% CI: 0.89, 0.98; P for trend 0.009).


CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that saturated FA intake may significantly increase hip fracture risk, whereas monounsaturated and polyunsaturated FA intakes may decrease total fracture risk. In postmenopausal women with a low intake of marine n-3 FAs, a higher intake of n-6 FAs may modestly decrease total fracture risk.

Super set for arms :D great pump! Abs went great too! Have been to the tyre people and unfortunately they didnt like the look of my rims and deemed them not road worthy, the dude had painted them black and they had started to rust and made them leak air... so I have to get new ones :( Expensive... garrrgh
HAHAHA what the... funny ad in Facebook... very trendy shoes LOL
very very funny..

Other than that I have fallen in love... with this baby.... Nissan Juke... sooo nice...
Lucky the Swedish community is looking after me. I've dropped my phone pouch three times and everytime there have been a kind person getting it for me!
Arms and abs @tibble tonight! Fun :) back's still freaking sore lol

Wednesday, October 27

:) Soo sore in my back from yesterdays session! Very good and very busy gym! I trained at tibble this time, will do all week cause tomorrow I have to put my tires in for fixing and have to pick them up on friday. On sunday or maybe saturday Ill swap to winter tires.
Went over to dads to pick them up. Waiting for me was 2 bottles of 04 Australian Shiraz, very good year! As well as a bottle of Stroh rum (1 liter lol)
cant wait to try the wine!!!I havent tried that one before but Im sure it will taste great!!!

Other than that Ill have a nice quiet night

Tuesday, October 26

Chest/Abs session went good, I was wondering why I felt so weak in the incline benchpress until I realized it was in the end of the session LOL
Came home, relaxed, ate and went to bed and as my head hit the soft pillow I heard a bang and a hoooooowl and barking... The downstairs neighbor had left their dog... 30 minutes later, the dog was still absolutely miserable and I started to think... Hmm maybe something has happened, I know the lady downstairs is elderly and has a dog... This isn't normal. So got dressed, took my rubbish (might as well make myself useful when I'm at it)
Went downstairs and met the old lady...
Apparently the dude next door to her's has a girlfriend that's a foster mum to rescue dogs. They live in a 1 bedroom apartment... At one stage she had 4 dogs there... Gosh!!!
Whilst this is a great cause you don't leave new dogs alone at night, you train them to be alone first... And apparently the walk them twice and they have to stay in the apartment for the rest of the time... Not good... This current dog had apparently been left for a couple of hours, trashing the apartment, the lady had heard it... Sigh...

Aaah!!! Since it was raining outside yesterday I could barely get in the car! Had to bend up the door! (-4 degrees) Then almost couldn't get the ice of the window insane lol and now on the train they've blasted the heat something incredible so it's sooo warm and NOT in a good way haha oh the problems of modern society...

Last night I went over to Sofies and gorgeous family for dinner. It was a perfect night with lots of laughs and great food, kid, dogs and cats :)
Her hubby made a perfect beef tenderloin and risotto, 2 flavors one with pesto and one with truffels! FANTASTIC! I wish I could have had some of the wine they had bought, it was a bold red wine! Just beautifully cooked food and great company! I couldnt have asked for more. Nights like that are the best, beats the hell out of a drunken night out or partying. Loved it!
Yesterday I also found gingerbread spices! YAY!! and this morning I flavored my oatmeal breakky with it. Just absolutely fantastic! I shall stock up on those spices this year so I can have it more often :D Its only about 1 dollar for a pack. 
In a couple of hours or so mum and I are heading to IKEA, ill look for some kitchen stuff, have a look at what my sofa would look like in a different color and get some inspiration what to to with my kitchen

Saturday, October 23

Form check. Unfortunately it was dark outside and I couldnt get any good lighting LOL but you get some idea. Goooooooooood Im pale.... thinking I need a spray tan but then again... whats the point LOL
Still feel that Im not ready but when getting rid of fluids and putting on tan (sorry painting on) it would make a big difference.
Training today at 1 then Im going over to Sofie and her family for dinner :D
Hope you all have a great weekend!

Friday, October 22

Ive just had a great gym session! Abs, quads and calf's!! I managed 70 kg sqats!! Yay me! Coach had to help me a little in the end but still :) not ass to the grass all the way tho, felt my knee a little so I got scared, nevertheless! I'm thrilled!
My belly started hurting slightly before training and it's not better, it's a bit strange but not to bad. Im also part of a facebook group for posing training at the gym! Met one of the girls tonight and now motivation is increasing :D
I hope you all have a beautiful evening!
Ps the snow is pretty much gone but might come back tonight :D
Gosh I don't know whats going on with me! Really felt deflated yesterday, dusty brain and worn and freezing cold! Didn't go to the big meeting at work only the pre meeting with our office! Our office is a part of a bigger company. But went to the important one at least...
Back home with a bit of fluff and a hot hot shower I felt a bit like normal again.
Sleeping really good now so that can't be it.
Weight has been 57.2 all week, no variations and that's strange too lol normally a person fluctuates depending on food and fluids and such. Ah well feel normal today...
Also!!! Finally! This winters first snow! Amazing walk this morning! Love it!!!

Thursday, October 21

Today its a resting day! I have a company meeting after work, good to see the girls I've gotten to know working at the office :) I've packed some extra food so I'm not going to be hungry. There is normally beer and chips and such at these functions but...
I'm still a bit surprised over last nights caliper measurement :) but happy!
I'll keep last couple of weeks caloric/cardio levels for another couple of weeks and then re-evaluate. I don't feel ready but I will listen to Daniel, the guy who does the bf% and Coach. Its too easy to get homeblind and not see yourself. It doesn't feel like I'm dieting, guess I'm not really either and the difference from last time is massive so I guess that plays a big part of it too.
Almost weekend.. Again lol... 7 weeks from competing!

Wednesday, October 20

So I've just been and done a bf measure and despite me gaining 400g and feeling less hard my % has gone down, have lost about 1mm all over, the guy did say that it within the margin of error but still, feels better than gaining...
Chest 4 mm
Abs 5 mm
Thigh 11 mm
Triceps: 8 mm
Shoulders 9 mm
Hip 12 mm
Armpit: 5 mm

Fat 7,83 %
Fat mass 4,48 kg
Fatfree mass 52,72 kg
After that I had a great armsession!!! Strong and massive pump! I love it!!!
Arms is the best, no abs today since I've just trained them!

Dad is going to Germany Friday and I've ordered some Shiraz (nomnom) and stroh rum (noooom) it'll be a while before I can try lol but I've got a feeling all I have to do is smell the rum and I'll be drunk!
Now I'm headed back home for the favourite time of the day (that and mornings) eating time eeeh I mean evening time ;)

Tuesday, October 19

Crazy gym session today! Massive back session, crazy good pump and felt strong and energetic! Even if the rain was pouring down today and that normally makes me tired! I also think that there is this young fellow that is trying to pick me up :p he is maybe 21, came up really shy and asked if I wanted to train with him sometime. Hes been saying hi a couple of times. Cute, adorable but hihihi sooo young...

2 guys at work have the flu, they normally sit behind me eeeeeeeeeeeeeew hope they stay home until they get better!!!!!

Got a work function on thursday so gym tomorrow. Itll be arms :D weeeeeeeeeeeee
Work is going well and Im having a cauliflower with the basilica pasta sauce, chicken and cheese for lunch YUMMY! and feels great and looks like pasta haha (the girls are impressed with me now that Im changing the menu every week hahaha)

Tomorrows walk will be wet, atleast its not cold and not going to be pouring down, been spoiled rotten with the clear skies and fresh cool air. 
Still a bit tired... My nose is a waterfall haha feeling a bit fluidy, the weight has increased only by 300g so I doubt thats what I feel, I've a feeling its something else, my bodys hormones that are getting normal now that my calories are giving them a chance, well see how that goes :)
Ze phone says "snow" on Thursday! It'll change tho and even if it comes it'll be gone by the time it hits the ground!

Monday, October 18

Wednesday, October 13

On the way to my seamstress! Massive soreness in the entire back section of my body lol love it! On Fridays we have test coffee and you get a week and you bring cookies! My week is this week (I've never had anything and never will) very tempted to bring carrots or something i can or would eat... But they made me promise I would bring something unhealthy... I guess I have to go to the shops then lol

Very interesting study! Indicates howimportant sleep is!

Ann Intern Med. 2010 Oct 5;153(7):435-41.
Insufficient sleep undermines dietary efforts to reduce adiposity.
http://www.annals.org/content/153/7/435.long
BACKGROUND: Sleep loss can modify energy intake and expenditure.

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether sleep restriction attenuates the effect of a reduced-calorie diet on excess adiposity.

DESIGN: Randomized, 2-period, 2-condition crossover study.

SETTING: University clinical research center and sleep laboratory.

PATIENTS: 10 overweight nonsmoking adults (3 women and 7 men) with a mean age of 41 years (SD, 5) and a mean body mass index of 27.4 kg/m² (SD, 2.0).

INTERVENTION: 14 days of moderate caloric restriction with 8.5 or 5.5 hours of nighttime sleep opportunity.

MEASUREMENTS: The primary measure was loss of fat and fat-free body mass. Secondary measures were changes in substrate utilization, energy expenditure, hunger, and 24-hour metabolic hormone concentrations.

RESULTS: Sleep curtailment decreased the proportion of weight lost as fat by 55% (1.4 vs. 0.6 kg with 8.5 vs. 5.5 hours of sleep opportunity, respectively; P = 0.043) and increased the loss of fat-free body mass by 60% (1.5 vs. 2.4 kg; P = 0.002). This was accompanied by markers of enhanced neuroendocrine adaptation to caloric restriction, increased hunger, and a shift in relative substrate utilization toward oxidation of less fat.

LIMITATION: The nature of the study limited its duration and sample size.

CONCLUSION: The amount of human sleep contributes to the maintenance of fat-free body mass at times of decreased energy intake. Lack of sufficient sleep may compromise the efficacy of typical dietary interventions for weight loss and related metabolic risk reduction.

Today was sooo much better! I've solved some stuff at work, managed to bring all the food to work, had a great strong session (back) at the gym! Deadlift of 95kg so haven't lost strength during this diet!
I am sitting close to someone that's speaking (very important call I'm sure) very bratty and loudly at the same time as he's chewing gum with open mouth, constantly... I'm sure the business person in the other end is very impressed lol
Words like capital, investing, risk is thrown around ;) lol

Going to the seamstress tomorrow after work for the first fitting and cut :) how exiting!!!
wohooo! my phone was at work!

Monday, October 11

craaaaaaaaaaaazy day!!
Forgot my pre/post workout shakes, forgot my phone at work, managed to take 2 un boiled eggs instead of the boiled ones... had to run past a gym store to get some aminos, couldnt go without protein for an hour after gym. Couldnt resist the temptation and ended spending to much on supplements lol ah well, its not like i dont use them... Hopefully i did forget the phone at work and didnt lose it somewhere.... early to bed today I think...
I'm surprised how good it went to switch to less cardio and more food! The scary feeling and nervousness is gone and I'm loving the energy and how my body feels! Gym is great fun and I feel strong! I have energy left and time over! How lucky am I :)
I've even fallen in love with today's fashion lol its been a while and the fashion before was hem not really me! But now! Fall inspirited, wool, cozy skirts and leggings and legwarmers!
So yes went shopping yesterday! Today I'm wearing a skirt lol and warm leggings, legwarmers and a long warm cardigan! Love it!

Sunday, October 10

The movie was great! I loved it! It's called despicable me in English, soo funny and cute! I ended up with a 4 year old I'm my lap and ut was very cozy!
Later a friend popped by for a cup of tee :) now I'm going to watch a movie and have fluff haha
I'm completely sold on it, it can't be good for you it's creamy, fluffy and tasty! I've started to use a bit of funlight, it's a sugar free cordial mix, a bit of that makes it even tastier!
This is what it should look like when you start, mash the berries up and pre mix it with a fork, start on a low setting, otherwise you'll get it everywhere hehe been there done that, not to much fluids, let it sit in the bowl for a while if you think you've had to much fluids, it'll stiffen from the frozen berries! I only mix it for 5 minutes but you'd probably get more flightless if you keep going or have a stronger whipper (?) like Andy's but this is plenty for me :)

This is the result after 5 min of whipping!

Saturday, October 9

Saturday monaning haha My legs are SORE!!!!!!!! I am hurting and my morning walk wasnt so much a walk it was more of a waddle LOL Love it! I am so excited! way to excited for my own good lol I think its because my energy levels have shot thru the roof now that Ive increased the calories and are relaxing a bit more. But that might just be placebo... I dont really care. So what the agenda today, looking at it now its going to be a very quiet day, need to clean the apartment, will do a roast beef for the week and go to the gym around 2 to train hamstrings and shoulders.

Im also considering getting some sort of spray tan that you can do yourself, Im stupidly pale, as in whiter than white... funny thing is, I still have tan lines, I dont think Ill ever lose them as they are from Australia and the sunshine there have made its mark...

Miss my puppies, Izzy on a winter day in Adelaide

Great session today! Really got the pump in the legs going like crazy! Real fun training session even tho the gym didnt have any music and I forgot my earplugs!

Decided to give Andereaz Engstöms protein fluff (picture from his blog) a try. I was lucky to find 2 kg of frozen blackberries at willys (no sugar added). I used 25 g of faring sloow protein with the flavor wild berries, it will work with most whey protein i think and 200g of frozen blackberries. They need to be frozen, mash them up with a fork and put in a dl of water in the mix. Pre mix it, otherwise it will be extra messy when you start mixing. Use a handmixer, needs to be a strong one. It will look funny in the beginning but keep going. Mix it for more than 5 minutes and you will have a solid, very filling mousse.
(picutre from Andereaz blog)
My belly hurts cause its so fillilng, I think you will be okay with using 150g of frozen berries.
Macros for this baby is 175 kcal, 24g protein, 19g carbs and 1g of fat. I topped it with a bit of sweetner.

Abs today
Thank you sis :)

I know I will gain weight as a result of eating more, more carbs means more fluids in your body and more food means more stuff in your intestins! I know this but it will be mentally challenging. I know I have a obsessive personality type and that's probably why dieting goes well, it's also a challenge now. It's to easy to just keep going and going and not realizing your making a lot of damage to yourself. I am very set on the comp and last time I just kept going. So it's a bit of a anti climax.
I have to look at this as a good thing, don't get me wrong, it's great being almost done, I mean mentally! I'm lucky that I can increase calories and focus on training hard and not feel stressed about time or that I'm not going to be ready!
Nuff of the ranting :)
Will train in tibble today, qads/calf's and abs!
Yesterday evening I spent watching (crappy) tv and chatting online, not used to this haha I guess :p great to not be super tired comin home!

Thursday, October 7

So this is what it will look like:
Cardio 45 min morning walk on gym days (Monday/Tuesday/Thursday/Friday and Sunday)
Raise calories to 2100 on gym days and have a eating a bit extra day on Saturdays - approximately 2500 kcal.

Change some of the calories around, have some more starchy carbs, swap the veggies for potatoes (going to dads on Sunday to pick a few kilos up)
Ill reinstate oats in the morning too.
I'm sort of done... morning weight this morning was 56.8 and I did a BF measure today
Chest: 4 mm
belly: 6 mm
Thigh: 12 mm
Triceps: 12 mm
Shoulder: 8 mm
Hip: 13 mm
armpit: 5 mm

Fat percentage 8,31 %
Fat mas 4,72 kg
Fat free mas (including bones etc) 52,08 kg

So now the goal is to stay this way and maybe lose another 1% leading up to the competition.
I'm thrilled but scared! I'm still working out the details with the coach, but no more cardio after gym that's for sure.
:D ive booked my sis ticket to the comp and the train ride!
Unfortunately she won't be there for the pre judging as the Effin train don't start going until 9 :( but it's great that she will be there!!!
I'm also registered to compete! Now that's very motivating!!!
Looking forward to the fitness festival that will be at the same time!! Weeee
I'm also looking forward to see the new animated movie stupid me in 3D in the weekend with Anneli and her son!

Wednesday, October 6

Did back at the gym yesterday! Good pump!!! Feel it a bit and still sore from Mondays chest session.
My brother was there and it was good having a chat with him :)
Spent some time at home doing stretching and watching biggest loser!
Today, since there are no bonuswalk no more I'll be going to change some clothes, brought home the wrong size... Trying out these clothes, deciding on the size the being a good girl and return the other sizes and managing to return the ones I wanted haha that's diet brain for ya...

Aspartame and cancer, some more research indicating that aspartame might cause cancer :(

BACKGROUND: Aspartame (APM) is a well-known intense artificial sweetener used in more than 6,000 products. Among the major users of aspartame are children and women of childbearing age. In previous lifespan experiments conducted on Sprague-Dawley rats we have shown that APM is a carcinogenic agent in multiple sites and that its effects are increased when exposure starts from prenatal life.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to evaluate the potential of APM to induce carcinogenic effects in mice.


METHODS: Six groups of 62-122 male and female Swiss mice were treated with APM in feed at doses of 32,000, 16,000, 8,000, 2,000, or 0 ppm from prenatal life (12 days of gestation) until death. At death each animal underwent complete necropsy and all tissues and organs of all animals in the experiment were microscopically examined.


RESULTS: APM in our experimental conditions induces in males a significant dose-related increased incidence of hepatocellular carcinomas (P < 0.01), and a significant increase at the dose levels of 32,000 ppm (P < 0.01) and 16,000 ppm (P < 0.05). Moreover, the results show a significant dose-related increased incidence of alveolar/bronchiolar carcinomas in males (P < 0.05), and a significant increase at 32,000 ppm (P < 0.05).


CONCLUSIONS: The results of the present study confirm that APM is a carcinogenic agent in multiple sites in rodents, and that this effect is induced in two species, rats (males and females) and mice (males). No carcinogenic effects were observed in female mice. 

Am J Ind Med. 2010 Sep 30. Aspartame administered in feed, beginning prenatally through life span, induces cancers of the liver and lung in male Swiss mice  
Mymymy Coach have reduced my cardio from now on! 45 min in the mornings, 30 min after gym an NO bonus walks, I've been walking a bit extra with
My friends but no more of that... He reckons I'm staring to lose muscle and I definitely don't want that! So a bit more sleep in the mornings and sundays will be sloooow! Guess it gives me more time to do stuff!
It's funny cause this reduction is har for me, I guess it's a good exercise and this is why I have a coach, to help me not to over do it!
Will be training in tibble today!

Monday, October 4

One of the guys at work had some terrible need this morning. His friends 4 month old daughter had died.a heart failure and complications. He was really emotional and I just felt so bad, it really affected me and god it was so hard to see him sit there with all his emotions so raw and painful. I just wanted to give him a big hug. So hard :( It happened so sudden too! Words cannot describe the pain they must be feeling.
Interesting statement I just read!
Eating sweet things makes you carve sweet things even more!
So true!
A diet rich in spices and healthy fat and protein, low on processed carbohydrates such as bread, pasta and what not is the way to feel great, look great and above all things keep those cravings at bay!

Great weekend! Looking forward to another week of giant sets : D
I've bought a pair of 40 dollar jeans that fits good and it feels better when the sit the way they should and stay up :) doesn't mattar in 12-13 weeks that I can't use them cause theywhere cheap!

Sunday, October 3

Saturday, October 2

Quick update before I hit the gym for a shoulder session and then get ready for the SM in bodybuilding :D road-trip! Yesterdays training was a pain in the butt hahahaha my butt is sooo sore LOL Went great and I finished it off with a 40 min walk in the forest, good to mix it up. Trained in Tibble as I will do today. I also ran out on lunch to get a new pair of trackies as the ones I have are falling off. Same as the ones I already have but green and smaller! Love them!
Depressing most of booies are gone too haha
Lower back (my nemisis spot where it lets go last) are starting to come off too!
