Cardio - Day 1 l-Carnitine

[Pam]

Well I'm getting myself back on track. I got Tanner all tucked in in my bed downstairs..ok so its a couch and I jumped on the treadmill. He's seems to be doing a little better today. I know Jack knows this but Ryan had pneumonia last week and now Tanner has double pneumonia. I've been a busy mom.

Anyway I started the l-carnitine...I sure hope this works. I am still waiting for a copy of my test results so I can start doing more research. If this works I am going to Med school. I hate having to be my own doctor but I am really learning a lot. I didnt weigh myself this morning, I should have, but just wasnt in the mood to be depressed. I need to though so I know if this works or not. I really hope this does it...I am so tired of this game...I dont want to play anymore.

Ok the workout:
Cardio - 30 minutes mountain trail 15 minutes incline (started at 1 went up 1/2% every 30 seconds for 7.5 minutes then went back down the same way)

I took 2 grams of l-carnitine about 10 minutes before my workout. Should take it about an hour before so I'll do that next time. Also had a can of SoBe which has 250 mg of l-carnitine.

Just to double check here. I need 2 grams of l-carntine...the caps are 500 mg...I took 4...that would be what I needed for 2 grams correct?

Hoping to get my lifting in when Ryan gets home. He may not have time though..after missing 4 days of school he has quite a bit of homework. Oh this morning he told me he "wished I was smart"...after he came too I asked him what the heck he meant by that..he was kidding..needed help in science...got all 3 questions right. Yes I used the internet...none the less I got them.

Ok need to eat now..hope ya'll have a great day...I'm back to stay.

Good luck with the l-carnitine...

I would be very interested to see any of the supporting studies or abstracts. I have read a number of articles about effects of supplementing with l-carnitine, but not a lot on weight loss.

Hey, take care of yourself. Remember me shrieking about illness and injury ?

You've got a contageous disease floating around your house. If you get overtired, or don't cool down after exercise properly or exercise too much and get systemicaly weakened or ... or ... or ..., you may catch it. Or rather it may catch you.

Be careful.

4 servings is correct. 2,000 mg = 2g.

Fish is telling you what I've been preaching. Don't wear yourself down and let your resistance get low. Take care of yourself and everything else will work out just fine.

Point well taken guys...yes I mean that Jack. I will take it easy. Fish I'll give you more about the carnitine later. Dr. Colgan has some really good info in his books about it. I dont think I'd take anything that wasnt something he recommended. Dont have time now but I'll get back to you.

I'm counting on it . I didn't try the Sobe this evening,went cold turkey on the workout,not even any coffee before I left work. I'll let you know the results.
