Starting my "lean" routine

[Jodi]

Take your multi-minerals with meal 6. They are better to take at the end of the day to replenish the minerals you peed out!

 

[Julie7Ulie]

I usually take them right before bedtime. Do you think with food it would be best?

 

[Jodi]

Isn't meal 6 right before bed?

 

[Julie7Ulie]

Yea, sorta..

 

[Jodi]

Whats sorta?

 

[Julie7Ulie]

last meal at 10ish - i got to bed at 11-ish or midnight.. ?

 

[Jodi]

Then make your meal around 11ish.

[Julie7Ulie]

lever seated leg press...

 

[Jodi]

Try plate loaded next time! I hate those leg press machines. Emphasis too much on the hips and not enough on the legs.

 

[Julie7Ulie]

What is less bloating, you think? Coffee or diet soda? Im trying to eliminate one of them, but not sure which.

 

[Jodi]

The coffee is less bloating than the soda.

Try steel cut oats. I'm eating them now. They are different, almost crunchy. A great change of pace and in a much less portion. Take a bit to cook though!

If you can't get all your meals in then you should increase your protein to 35G per meal so that your calories are not so low.

 

[Julie7Ulie]

how was the holiday???

 

[Jodi]

Good, I got drunk twice Yours?

 

[Julie7Ulie]

You gotta celebrate being American somehow, right?

I spent the weekend at the beach. Its hard eating every couple of hours in this heat.

 

[Jodi]

I have no problem eating Never do though

What beach did you go to?

 

[Julie7Ulie]

Wingaersheek.. Loooove that beach.

 

[Jodi]

I've never been there.

 

[Julie7Ulie]

You should definetely go. Up by Gloucester. Exit 13 off of 128. That beach is GORGEOUS.

 

[Jodi]

Oh but if I get to Gloucester I go out on the boat. Way more fun than lying on the beach IMO!
