Glad to see you finally back!!!!

Weights are looking good, nice and heavy! I actually do very light weights with all my bodyparts, and high reps now, focusing on perfect form and really tearing my muscles. I look like a weakling, but I dont care Im training my muscles not my ego.

This is so gross.. but I'm going to try this cleansing

Sara, you need to place a warning on that link

Don't believe everything you read

My friend and I called them so many times.. asking them questions about the cleansing and what we allowed to do

The manual kit shows everything in detail http://blessedherbs.com/colonguide.pdf

I'm just paranoid of having too much organic apple juice.. (all that sugar!!!)

Posted by: Jodi

Seeing this is a fast, then there will be no reason what so every to worry about the sugar in the apple juice.

Just, please, don't expect miracles from this. Most of these make claims that are far from the actual truth.

Posted by: sara

having the fiber powder 5 times a day every 3 hours with apple juice ~ 6 oz. is still ok?
I asked them if we allowed to have any whey protein, flax oil
they said yes, but it will be washed out right when you drink it..
they said some people would eat regular fast food and still get benfit from the cleansing.. but the more you be strict with the fasting the more benefit you would get.
so if Im starving and have no energy.. I would have something, like banana or apple, pear.. all needs to be organic!

and they recommend veggies juice

Posted by: Jodi

Why wouldn't it be ok? If you are not eating much then your calories are low. Your body is going to use the sugar in the apple juice for energy and it will not store as fat, I guarantee that.

Are you no longer working with that girl at F&B that think she knows it all? You know, those 2 girls that can only repeat what DP says because they really doesn't know jack, they have no minds of their own and they are just more DP Lemmings.

makes alot of sense.. and I would never have thought of it..
I killed myself tonight with trying to have the powder with very little amt. of the apple juice because I was paranoid with the sugar content.. Thank You
my friend and I juice the organic apples instead of actually buying the actual organic unsweetend apple juice.. it's better to make it on our own and know nothing is added

When I asked for help.. and wanting to eat balanced meals, they still made me cut on cheese, milk, organic bread and any preservatives.. but that's not going to be balanced.. I know I'm strict with my carbs or fats, but restricting myself from things that I want to add to my diet , will make me not eating balanced meals and have problems again..
I think I learned enough from DP, Leah for past year or so.. and now I'm ready to work on my own
Reading the same ideas over and over again from different people, "same brain" is tiring one day they say don't count the carbs from veggies and the other day they want me to count the carbs from veggies

Good Girl

I'm glad to see you step out and learn to figure stuff on your own. I'm proud of you.

Their diets are not balance, lifestyle diets IMO. They are punishments. I'm doing what you are now. I'm doing a healthy lifestyle, balanced diet and enjoying, in small quantities, some foods that I typically don't eat like milk and breads which is why I bought those muffins I told you about tonight

Thank you Jodi

but I'm also having problems with knowing how to balance my meals.. fats. protein and carbs
I need to teach myself to not go overboard and eat everything I see

Posted by: Jodi

It's a learning process but I have faith in you and I know you can do it. Just don't doubt yourself and what you have learned. You've come a long way from the original posts by Oceangurl that I use to want to rip my hair reading

You didn't like me first did you?

Posted by: Jodi

It wasnt' that I didn't like you. I never had a reason to dislike you. You just drove me nuts sometimes

It was just that whatever we tried to explain to you went in one ear and out the other. We got tired of repeating the same things over and over hoping that you would understand so eventually we just had to give up until you were ready to learn and understand why, we as bodybuilders or athletes eat the way we do. Like I said before, you've come a long way and I'm happy that you actually learn some on your own now and want to do things for yourself instead of being told exactly how to do them all the time.

Posted by: sara

I appreicate everything and you'r continious help

Do you think you would be able to go and watch the comp in September?

Posted by: Jodi

You are welcome.

Not sure yet. I don't know when my surgery is yet.

Posted by: carbchick

Hi Sara! I'm interested in what you are doing ... are you planning to work out while you are doing this cleanse? will you post with how it is going?
also why did you choose this rather than just plain old colonic irrigation?

(or is that a silly question)

Posted by: sara

carbchick- I'm not going to workout during the fasting/cleansing process. because I'm not going to have enough energy to workout and if I worked out I will lose my muscles (if I have any)
I will post starting tomorrow with the fast and how things are going..
the past 3 days were the pre-cleansing I did bad

but tomorrow the fast starts and I will post everything

Posted by: sara

I hope this will easily release the toxin that I no longer need in my body and help me to eat clean and not cheat when I'm not supposed to

Both are ok.

? Would dairy be good for you with your constipation/bowel problems? Does dairy aggravate your stomach at all? It seems like dairy tends to aggravate pre-existing stomach problems in some people.

It does causes constipation with people. I avoided dairy and still was constipated

Good eye

However, after seeing Sara's previous diet and chatting with her I really feel some of her issues come from lack of fiber. Her diet consists of too much fruit and not enough stachy carbs which typically means lack of fiber. Sara asked me to help her out and this coming weekend we are making some changes. Couple of things is going to be limiting the fruit and adding in carbs loaded with fiber.

I love fruits

is this because of my constipation or just how the new plan works?
One fruit a day if you say so

How come cottage cheese with 5 grams sugar is ok before bed .. where low carb hood milk 2-3 grams sugar is not ok before bed?

Posted by: Jodi

Because the protein from cottage cheese is much better for you.

Yes the limit on the fruits is because of your constipation and because of the new diet. Your body doesn't need much fructose to refill liver glycogen and you need more muscle glycogen filled than liver. You also need to get more carbs with higher fiber than fruit.

I thought protein from any dairy is good for you..when it contains no sugar

1 serving fruit a day

would 1 grape fruit or 1/2 grape fruit be counted as 1 serving?

Gotta go to bed .. been along day for me

Sara, It was very nice meeting you today. You are a very sweet girl and thank you for the goodies

Now stop thinking your fat because you are tiny! Time to put some meat on dem bones

Good luck starting your new plan tomorrow and let me know if you have any questions

Any young singles guys out here...............She's a looker

Tuesdays I will be doing weight training 40 minutes- 1 hour after having my first meal, then after weight training , I’m planning on doing cardio for 25 minutes and 5 minutes warm up/cool down ( I know I can wait 30 up to minutes for my PWO meal)
Thursdays and Sundays I might start doing cycling class for about 45 minutes- 1 hour after weight training.. do I need the oats and shake after weight training and then do the cycling class? Or should I wait till I finish my 1 hour cycling and then have the shake with oats?

I had to buy few protein bars today. They were on sale and didn’t want to miss the sale 2 for $ 1.00 .. I won’t have any protein bars yet.. just saving them for the future

I saw these today: http://www.food-for-life.com/summary.asp?cat=9
I was going to get one bag. But I found English muffins without sugar also from the same company that makes those muffins

Would sprouted pasta be counted like eating lentils and whole grains?

This is good. Traditional cardio 3x per week and the cardio of your choice. Yes, you can wait til after the cardio to do your PWO meal, that is fine.

Thursdays and Sundays I might start doing cycling class for about 45 minutes- 1 hour after weight training.. do I need the oats and shake after weight training and then do the cycling class? Or should I wait till I finish my 1 hour cycling and then have the shake with oats?[/color]

I would have your PWO shake and your oats right after your weight training. Then do your spin class an hour later and then eat your next meal at your regular scheduled time.

I had to buy few protein bars today. They were on sale and didn’t want to miss the sale 2 for $ 1.00 .. I won’t have any protein bars yet.. just saving them for the future

Good just hold onto them for now. In a few weeks you can add one in every now and then

I saw these today: http://www.food-for-life.com/summary.asp?cat=9
I was going to get one bag. But I found English muffins without sugar also from the same company that makes those muffins

Any sprouted grains is fine to replace the lentils with. Just remember the 2 carb meals that we discussed coming from oats and etc.........

You do have fish oil correct?

I'm sorry, I misread. Wait til after your spin class to have your PWO shake and oats.

Posted by: sara

Is that ok for 1 hour wait without protein/carbs after weight training?

Posted by: Jodi

Yes, that is fine but no more than an hour please.

Posted by: sara

Jodi, Thank you again for calling me and checking up on me if I had a ride home

The class is 45 minutes - 1 hour I will have my shake next to me and right after cycling I will drink that baby up

Posted by: Jodi

Sounds good.

Oh and no problem. I'm not that much of a cold hearted bitch to leave you without a ride home. Well, that depends on who you ask.

Again, please don't look at your body as fat and you dislike it. You have a great figure and you are so little. I think a little muscle will do you good and you will be much more satisfied with yourself and your physique.

What the hell is a quacker oat

I'm just giving you a hard time. You mean Quaker Oats and yes it is providing you get the Old Fashioned 100% Rolled Oats and not the Minute Oatmeal.

Posted by: sara

You seen the Rolled Oats in sprouts? the one on sale 3 lbs for $ 1.00 ?? that's ok?
I usually use the QuaKer oats from cotco

Posted by: Jodi

That's the exact kind I buy is the one out of the huge bins at Sprouts. I love that store

I also buy my basamatti brown rice that way too.

Posted by: sara

Why some people don't suggest the Rolled oats?

Most my fat intake coming from Omega 3 (fish oil cap) and some flax oil
Do I need to balance my fat intake ratio ? like adding other EFA's?

I don't know who would ever tell you not to get rolled oats.

If you are getting fat from fish and flax oil that is fine. Don't forget that some of your proteins are going to have fat too like chicken and cottage cheese. So between the fat in your proteins, the fish oil and flax you are getting a good enough variety.

Meals are perfect

That's fine on the oil

Quaker makes a few different kind of oats. They make the rolled oats (old fashioned oats) and they make the 1 minute oats. You just have to make sure you are getting the Rolled Oats and not the instant.

Just buy them at Sprouts like I do. They are rolled oats, they are organic and they are cheap

I'll start using the ones from sprouts after I finish the costco oats

Yes, please increase the fish oil to 5 caps on salmon days.

If you find the caps annoying feel free to get the flavored oil. Its better for you anyway but I just can't bear the thought of drinking that stuff.

Sara, you are doing too many sets. I know you like this workout but I think you should cut the sets down to 3 but actually make it 4 with 1 warm up set and 3 working. More doesn't mean better.

Posted by: sara

Hey Jodi

So, I should do 1 warm up set with each set of excersise and then do 3 working sets?

Posted by: sara

I had my PWO/cardio shake meal 9:30.. can I have my next meal in 2 hours and 15 minutes instead of waiting 3 hours? like ~ 11:45 ?

Yes, that will still cut back on your working sets considerably.

And yes that is fine on your meal question above.

Good job on the fish oil. Can I ask why there are certain days you don't eat meat?

BTW - I have a ton of fish in my freezer right now. My next door neighbor is a hunter and he hunts EVERYTHING and that includes fishing. Well, he just went to Alaska for a week trip and came back with 2 deep freezer full of fresh Halibut and Salmon. I currently have about 10 pounds of each in my freezer. I had a HUGE Halibut steak tonight and OMG it was sooooo good

All fresh caught and none of it farm raised. I'm not a big salmon fan so I need to be creative with this 10lbs of salmon

I'll have no problem eating all the Halibut though

We give up meat (not seafood) on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays "religous thing" Catholic not all Catholics follow this.

All the Salmon sounds yummy!!!
You can steam the salmon, just add water and stick few garlic gloves in the salmon and some spices

The salmon patty bought from cotco where it's already made and frozen

Something about steamed fish sounds nasty. I've never liked salmon because evertime I ate some it a was always waaaayyy too fishy for my liking and I love fish in general

Maybe it was just how it was prepared I don't know but I know sure as hell that I haven't a clue how to cook all this and make it taste good when I don't like the way others prepare it. So any suggestions would be great.

My aunt once baked the salmon in the oven with some veggies (tomatoes, onions, garlic and green seasonings)
