Decided to plug everything into fitday from yesterday and came out with 1959 calories - 25% fat, 42% carbs, 32% protein.

Today: 18% fat (not counting fish oil)
44% protein
38% carbs

Hey Andrea! I'm glad to hear your uncle is okay, that could have gone really bad.. Don't worry about the extra food, there are occations in life when getting the right food isn't a priority and last night was a time like that

You're doing so great sweetie

Morning!!

Okay, I think I'm going to try something new here. I think my body will respond better to a low carb high protein diet. I'm going to give it a go and see how it goes. I just can't deal with all the bloatiness anymore

Thursday:
Meals

1: protein pancakes , I don't know what I did wrong but these were gross.

1/3 cup oatmeal, 1/2 cup egg whites, 1 scoop protein powder, 1 tsp. cocoa, SF syrup

29 grams protein

2: 7 oz. tuna- 45 grams protein

3: veggies

4: 7 oz. tuna- 45 grams protein

5: 1 cup egg whites, veggies- 24 grams protein

6: 5 oz. chicken, veggies- 25 grams protein ??? not sure about that one

Total: 168 grams

Generally I will have veggies with meals one, four and five. If I eat them with all of them I get sooo bloated. I'm also going to up my water intake from one gallon a day to two gallons a day gradually. Cardio will go to four days a week HIIT for 20 minutes plus a five minute warm up and cool down = 30 minutes Monday through Thursday. I'll do kickboxing EVERY Saturday morning. My weight workouts will stay the same and when I do cardio at lunch I'll just consider it extra. I may also do pilates occassionally. I'm going to try this for six weeks and then see what needs to be changed.

Thanks Emma- I wish I felt the same about it . Hopefully in time. Today is just one of those days I guess. I just feel fat!! And then I see people who have lost a lot of weight and ask what they are doing- oh, I just don't eat hardly anything!! Just makes me want to starve, but I know what their doing to their metabolism and no that the weight will come back, BUT I want my results now!!!!!

Can you tell- patience isn't my best virtue!!

NO STARVING MISSY OR CALLING YOURSELF FAT!!!!!!!

you look awesome and your doing great!!!

LOL didnt like the prot.pancakes?? did u grind the oaties first? I always do.

diet looks good!! just suck back those fishy caps!!!

as for the bloatiness darlin, you still cut the sodium devils like we talked about? those are a huge culprit. sometimes artifcial sweetners cause some to retain water(not sure why)

I missed you yestarday!

Hey girl, how can you possibly say you're fat! Ridiculous, I'd kill for a body like yours (well not literally kill but u know..)

You look awesome, but if you don't feel awesome you gotta take some time out and do something that makes you happy. Wish it was easier to change our minds and hearts.

I'm getting jealous, I wanna call you too



I can do it

I WILL be a size 5.

Wow my first post on this board I'm going to comment about your breasts. ops: Anyway, I think you look fantastic *nice legs* personally I don't think you need any work done....what you are doing seems to be working nicely. With that said if you still decide to get breast augmentation I think you should definitely go with under the muscle....living down here in So-Cal I have run into my share of boltons and almost everyone I have run into has had under the muscle.... they look and feel a lot better.... Anyway you seem to be an intelligent and beautiful woman so I have no doubt you can make up your own mind on the matter.

P.S. I'm not a pervert and I'm sure my future posts will have more substance. errrr maybe not

Morning Everyone!!

Figured I had better update my workouts. Yesterday I did 30 minutes of intervals on the eliptical. Then last night I did some squats and lunges with 2 5lb. dumbbells (I need new ones, I really can do heavier than this ) , some upper body work to failure since the weights were so light (took FOREVER AND A DAY!!) and some abs. Took about 25 minutes or so. I start back to school today- this is my very LAST class. My graduation date is July 30th. I was one credit short of graduating this month so I'm taking a course on Tuesdays to get the credit. I'm so ready to be done with it I think I'd like to take Ultrasound next though. I really don't like Paralegal work and ultrasound techs make really good money around here and it would only be two more years. Who knows???

Haven't really had a chance to post my meals either- but they've been clean. The weekend had cheats but I usually do good through the week. Lots of clean foods!!

Hey girl! Wow, last class!! That must feel good! I have 3 more years Here in sweden we usually take lots of years between high school and college cause when we apply for college we apply for set programs, with the next 4 years all planned out within the major. Big decisions

Good job on keeping the meals clean
