I know!

DANG your right Jillybean that is A LOT of protein for one feeding! hmmm I wonder if you could just move a lil of it into one of your snacks. still keep it in there but just at a diff time?

Ill ask my gf what she thinks.

Jill

Today is 'cute boy day' at my work. Have seen 3 so far!!

JLB001

Try like Jen has suggeseted, move some of it over with your snack. I could easily eat 8oz of meat in one sitting. I'm not meaning to sound harsh or mean, just want to see it work is all and to do so, ya gotta give it a chance.

But dont you think 2100 cals is a lot in order to lose weight Jodie???(just wondering) Didnt you say you eat like 1100?

jstar

Hi Jill!

Jodie is right do not modify the plan. What I would do is call them and ask if you can eat the rest of the protein in one of your smaller meals until you are ready to eat 8 oz at once. Keep the portion sizes to what they said - no more and no less. If you eat less you just end up hungrier and it will backfire. I am just speaking from experience.

You are doing great so far hun, I have NO DOUBT you can do this!!!!

PS -Is that sf yogurt only available in Canada? We don't have Safeays here and I have never heard of lecerne. (can you send me some )

Jodi

I don't think 2100 cals is too much for you Jill. Of course though I think it could have been portioned out differently.

If this bothers you why don't you call them. You're paying them so you have every right to question your diet with them. Don't just start messing around with it. That is when thing DON'T work.

Jillie...You have to keep in mind I am on a cutting diet, getting ready for a bbing show. To me, that is a whole different ballpark than trying to loose weight for the summer. I may be eatting that low, but once I stop that diet...I gain weight back. Your trying to find what works to help you loose and stay at that weight. I could easily eat that amount of food on the diet they have provided for you and them some.

If your having concerns about the amount of protein, call them and tell them your concerns, it part of what y ou are paying them for. Have them adjust it for you, but you shouldn't adjust it yourself. If I have concerns about my diet, Jon is programmed in my cell, I call. He is there to work for me for what I am paying him for.

I'm sorry, this is just a subject that kinda irks me. Be the type of client that trainers love...do as they say and the results will come!
Don't go to them with something in mind, then complain about what they say to do without even giving it an honest effort. Voice your concerns to them, so they know what your true concerns are. Jillie...I believe you can truly do this if you give it a chance...Please Call Donna and let her know your concerns about the amounts of proteins. I'm sure they would happily adjust it for you.

Hi Jilly!! Cute boy day eh??

Jill

Jodie-I just had 6.5oz of chix with my rice and veggies and that was way too much. Im having hamburgers for din din!

Fitgirl70

hamburgers???? Oh my gosh, I would love to have one, but I just don't think I can.

We are going to a mexican food restaurant for dinner tonight w/ my brother and sister-in-law and I'll probably have my usual fajitas, no tortillas, no quac, no sc, water to drink...


Somehow though, I always think even this is cheating. Is it?

All the glory to God! We have a baby on the way.

Jill

Fitgirl, you can eat hamburgers-just use ext lean beef, lotsa spices, egg white, oats in stead of bread crumbs. Cook on the bbq, the fat cooks off and eat with mustard and veggies and rice. (no bun or cheese of course)

JLB001

No ice tea Fit? mmm


Jillie...you'll just have to get use to that amount of food. You're gonna feel like your eatting alot. Its because you are not use to it. When I started mine the first time, I thought I was eatting all the time and I was always full. It passes.

Hamburger....I could go to Fuddrucker's and seriously munch down on one of their 1/2 lb burgers with the bun and fries and go back for dessert.

You won't die. Probably the rice has ya a lil bloated.

Jillie...why not try some 5-HTP. Craig says it raises the seratonin levels, which would be the same effect people get when they eat sugary foods. So if that article is accurate, it evolves from self esteem issues or depression which can all be related to low seratonin levels.
