Buff Bride Countdown
Well....thanks to Babs and Eggs' encouragement, I'm starting a journal!
About me: About 5 years ago, I weighed around 160 lbs. I joinned Weight Watchers and got down to around 127-130, where I've stayed since then. I've always stuggled with being "skinny fat" -you know the layer of fat all over that covers any muscle you might have
.
Currently, I am 125-127, 5'6" and 18.2% body fat as of 3 weeks ago. I've stuggled with my diet a lot. I have a horrible carb-tooth. And I am lacto-ova vegetarian, so carbs are lot of my diet. I also run or do other cardio 4-5 days a week and lift 2-3 days (2 w/a trainer). I also have a tendency to undereat. I did well on weight watchers, but I think I may have been eating around 1000-1200 cals a day w/one day off.
I am getting married
on June 11 and I want to look buff in my strapless dress and in my bikini on the beach in St. Thomas
So ....here goes
Oh....I'm also taking the advice of TP and ordering Lepitgen Basic and Lipoderm -Y or Ultra....don't know which yet!

Fiber One and All Bran w/Extra Fiber are fine for cereal. Oh and there is also Uncle Sam cereal as well. Any of those with L/C Milk is fine for dieting

Yes, the L/C FF Hood milk is great. It has 12G protein per 8oz (1 cup) If you get the All Bran make sure its the one with called With Extra Fiber. I personally prefer the Fiber One because its sweetend. I love Fiber one

OK...I just ordered the Leptigen and Lipoderm-Y!!!
My plan:
Sunday - Friday: 14-1600 cals a day w/at least 125 gms of protein
and switch to all complex carbs.
Saturday is a day off, not to binge or anything, but to have a drink or two and just not think about food too much

Speaking of low-carb milk, I tried some kind of soy low-carb choclate milk, that had like 10g of protein per cup, 4g of carbs, and 4-5g of fat and it was GREAT. I couldn't believe how good it tasted. I'll see if I can find out what brand it was. I am a huge milk junkie too finding some low-sugar high-protein milk would be great.

Do find out MonStar.....since I'm a veggie, I prefer soy milk anyway. Although, I cannot stand it in coffee for some reason.

4/8/2004
AM workout:
40 mins cardio: 20 on rolling stairs, 20 on ellip w/arms
Meals:
oatmeal/yogurt/coffee
salad w/boca chicken pattie/green beans/avacado
celery/nat pb
Need to go shopping after work for other things. It's hard right now to get organized (but I KNOW I have to) because I am still living w/my roommate but my Fiancee lives in our new condo. So I live in both places...mostly at the new place on the weekends. We are so old fashioned
Anyway, I have to become a super planner to make this work!*********************************************
