Today begins a 2 week focus on really getting my food right. My trainer has given me a new weight training plan which I'm loving (I started this 2 week ago). I'm doing well with the workouts but I think cleaning up my diet is the thing that will push me through this plateau (I've been at 148/9 for 2 months!!!!) :explode: :explode: :explode:

It's not just about sticking to my calorie allowance now: it's more about eating less processed sugar and fewer carbs. I'm a fussy eater so can't go without carbs for breakfast but aside from that I'm going to try to have only protein, fruits and veggies throughout the day - what do you think?????????

Changes I've made already:

I've already worked on increasing my protein intake to more than 100g per day (up from about 50g)

Stopped working out excessively - I'm now doing a very challenging weight lifting plan 3 x per week plus some interval training

Trying to eat back my exercise cals - or at least make sure I net 1200 (but I'm trying to do this with quality calories rather than just eating empty calories)

Any other ideas, comments would be sooooooo useful. I have 9lbs to lose to get down to my goal of 140 (or less :wink: :wink: )
