Sara I dunno if that is a good idea cuz the water bottle might start melting, even if its not noticeable there can be some plastic chemicals going into your water. Why not drink some right before and right after?

How many calories?

Measurments.. I still can't belive it, today he measurmed me and I'm at 17% my weight was 4 lbs. more than yesturday morning.. I think because I had food in my system and water when he measured me today, comparing to stepping on scale first thing in the morning

Goal Calories Recommendations

Cals= 1760
Protein= 20%
Carbohydrates= 65%
Fat= 15%

* I have to count all the fats.. even the fats coming from oats, rice anything that has fat

* Big change for the protein and carbs, I asked him If I can have more protein.. he said I can only increase it by 5% and decrease the Carbs by 5%
So, I will do 25% protein, 60% carbs, 15% fat

Maintaence Calorie Recommedation 2200 Cals!!!!

not wrong- just make sure that when you do measurements you measure the same area he did to accuratly monitor your progress.

calorie intake looks good-although I disagree on the fats, you NEED healthy fats...
glad to see that hes got some carbs up there too. althought I dont think they need to be that high really. the change will be good for you for a while though.

gosh- you have teeny legs too!!

I know.. I feel like I need some more fats in my diet.. but the limted fat that I'm going to intake is going to be from good sources of fat.. I will change it later in the future

I asked him, if I need to have little protein in each meal.. he said no.. all they look for is Daily total not each meal total..

AJ- He wants me to do the following:
1760 cals
352 cals from protein
1144 cals from carbs
264 cals from fat

I'm going to change it a little tiny bit :
1660 cals
415 cals from protein (103)
996 cals from carbs (249)
249 cals from fat (27)

I still see the carbs are high, but I'll try my best to get used to it

Well, it looks like he based it on 15 cals/bw to get that number. So, 15x4=60, you should only lower it to 1700.

Why the hell would you pay a trainer 115 dollars to change the diet he gave you? STICK WITH THE PLAN HE GAVE YOU. It actually looks like a very good plan and one that will prevent you from binging. Don't fuck with it try it and keep him informed on your progress.

Sara - sticking with this plan will do you a world of good. Please try it first then go to him if you need changes.
