I'm determined to get back on track with my workouts and eating habits. I know I have much more muscle on my body than I used to. However, my weight is more than I would like it to be. I don't mean that in just the number on the scale because that number is evil and I shouldn't base my goals off that, but also the way my clothes fit. I have some questions.
My new trainer is a fan of the macronutrients way of losing weight. So low carb, high protein, higher calories. So right now I'm at about 1750 calories a day, 170 g of protein, 65 g of fat, and 114 g of carbs. I'm struggling with meal ideas and healthy snacks to keep this up. I now have a better protein powder that I can supplement. I only eat white meat and fish (I'm a recovering vegetarian). I work out at least 5 days a week. Two of those day I'm doing a pole class for about 2 hours at a time. I do heavy weight lifting the other three days and I'm trying to incorporate 3 days of 20 - 25 of HIIT cardio after I train.
Does anyone have any meal ideas or a way I can change my workout to see better results? For the last two weeks I have cut out as many carbs as I can (pasta, bread, potatoes, etc.) to slim down. I have noticed a difference, but I want to make sure I'm not screwing myself in the process.
Anything is appreciated!
