I hear you girlfriend! I think I overdid you tho-a whole box of Hoffmanns choc. covered pretzels, a Quarter Pounder w. cheese and large fry from Mcicky D's, A bottle or two of Chardonnay, lots of sharp Cheddar cheese, 2 bagels w. egg and a half a box of Cracklin Oat Bran cereal....oops, I forgot the casino buffet and shrimp pasta///more meatball pizza and oh shit I better hit the gym tomorrow.


Hey, happy eating. Life is too short to live on chicken breasts and asparagus.
uh!

Come Monday, and another few pounds heavier...we can start it all over again.


Love ya,

Your Bombshell sista,

Dina The Machina :)
 

If only people knew how this gluten-based food is a leading cause to diabetes and hypoglycemia as well. I did some checkups and I think I may have the same condition as you but milder.
Been following some of your advice on the gluten free food and magically I feel like a new man lol
 

Congratulations on your placing and for qualifying for Nationals! I'm glad that you're enjoying your sweets, Tamar! I cheated all day the day after The North American Championships, but then I remembered those last 2 weeks of dieting which were tough, and I don't want to gain the weight back. I'm pretty much sticking to my diet and having 2 cheat meals a week. Continue training hard at the gym, and Best of luck next year at Nationals.
You look AMAZING as usual!
 

Tamar, you are a woman after my own heart! If I had an older sister, you would definitely be her! Absolutely! I enjoy ribeyes served medium rare, marinated in extra virgin olive oil, a little worchester sauce then rubbed with kosher salt an a pinch of fresh cracked pepper. With that, I like having 15 or 20 roasted garlic cloves and big beefy onions rings and a nice salad served as support. That to me is top notch! MY FOOD STORY! Back in the summer of 1995 when I was going into highschool, I went to Don Shula's Steak House where I then preceeded to eat the 48oz t-bone, several shrimp cocktails, caesar salad, bread, and even chocolate cake for dessert. So, I am a member of Don Shula's 48oz club. If you are ever in Don Shula's in Tampa, look for my name on the actual plaques on the walls.
From Ohio with love! ;)
 

TAMAR! You are a woman after my own heart! I actually think we'd get a long really well. If I had an older sister (I am an only child), I think she would most definitely be like you! And you certainly know how to chow down! It's so nice to know that there are still real women out there who love to eat real food and not be uptight about it! You go girl! After reading this, I want a ribeye steak now! LOL. My perfect steak is a medium rare ribeye thats been marianated in extra virgin olive oil with a splash of worchester sauce then rubbed with kosher salt, and a pinch of fresh crack pepper. Then, I roast 15 or 20 garlic cloves to serve with it. Serve with big beefy onion rings and a nice salad with oil and vinegar, and I am one happy camper! Though, I have never tried blue cheese. I must experiment! FOOD STORY. Okay, when I was 14 in the summe rof 1995, I was at the Don Shula steak house in Tampa, and I ate the 48oz steak--along with bread, a few shrimp cocktails, caesar sald, and even room for chocolate cake for dessert. Oh man, talk about feeling like crapola. I didn't eat for 24 hours! My father's friend, Mark Jacobson, took us there during his reign as the main guy for many years at Kendall Toyota. He had just started his show, Miami Nights. Do you remember that? No worries if not.
So, if you are ever in Don Shula's Steakhouse in Tampa, look on the walls for the "48 ouncer club members" and you will find my name! Rock on, Tamar!
 

Tamar! You are wonderful! I am GLAD however, that you will be getting back on the grind. You know food never tastes as sweet as after a contest! When you have been depleting for SOOOOO long, everything tastes good. My vice is SUGAR. And not just any sugar, plain old condensed right to the point sugar. After dieting down my first year I ate a bag of smarties like every day for 10 days! LOL! I would weight in, in the morning...if I had not gained weight..."ok eat more smarties!!!", of course on day like 11, I all of sudden was like 7 lbs heavier and about had a heartattack! Then got back on the grind!

Your body probually was craving fat & sugar, and protein...well maybe everything!! LOL!

Have a awesome fit day!!! Keep Smiling!! :)
 

Um.... I'm thinking, "typical!" :) hahaha
Well, typical for those super special folks, like yourself, that I know :)

Tamar, I'm surrounded by woman whom share your voracity. I always get the guilty call afterward. And, I'd love to pit your eating prowess up against my friends Colette, Elise, and Diane. Now THAT would be a challenge!!! Believe me, Colette put down 9,000 calories at a time. Right after competing in the Olympia she did. To me, that's been a hallmark sign of a good competitor.


I SO hear you on the puking thing. I'm terrified of it. It' on of the bases of my anorexia. Though it seems I share in the obsession with food, just manifest it in an opposite fashion. Going out to eat is a bit of a challenge.
Though you'll love me even more to know that lately, I order what others like so they can share it :) So know you know whom to sit near in the future ;) hahaha

xoxoxo
 

Aghhh I hear you on this.I have the biggest sweet tooth EVER and I love crabs with a passion!! I swear i could eat a whole jar of peanut butter in one day if it wasn't bad for you,lol. Bad enough I have a home daycare and all the snacks in the world in my house:( Sooo I have to make sure there's healthy food in my house or i'd go straight for the crap...I'm such a food addicted as well,thank goodness fitness found me or i'd be obesed
