    typically i eat for breakfast 3/4 of a cup of cheerios with milk

    lunch a salad (mixed lettuce or fresh spinich leaves arugalla all kinds of lettuce tomatos red onion) with 3 tablespoons of light italian dressing. on the side either chicken cutlets or fish (salmon tuna lox) (i cut out cheese this much i will let it back in but i was experimenting) i eat morning star farms products (fake meat and chicken) or tuna in a low carb tortilla or low carb whole wheat wrap with lettuce and tomato.
    snack
    sometimes 1/2 an avocado (in gaucamoli) with these garden veggie sticks (they are like pringles and really yummy) but no more than 1 whole avocado spread out over two days in one week.

    also snack i eat 20 almonds and an apple sometimes jello pudding snacks 60 calorie if i dont have then 100 calorie and i put a tspn on peanut butter and a graham cracker in it (less then 200 calories and sooooooo yummy) a lot of the time i dont even put the graham cracker.

    dinner i will have fish chicken meat always veggies low fat hot dogs sometimes pastrami or salami it depends i experiment but lots of fish and chicken. and water lots of water


    no as for excercise i do 5 days of excercising (anything extra i call bonus days) i do at least 30 minutes of cardio i walk outside (used to do the treadmill until it broke two weeks into this) i make sure to do the big hills in my neighborhood. i also do lots of strength training lunges and squats with weights i do the strength part of the 30 day shred. i do cardio rain snow everything no excuses there had not been one week since january 12 2009 that i have not done at least 5 days at least 30 minutes of cardio i wont allow it and that is a first.....any other questions please feel free to ask i ask always and i am so glad i can help...


    2.6 pounds this week 10 pounds in 6 weeks


    oh and remember slow and steady wins the race (dont be discouraged just take it one day at a time thats all u can do and remember it wont happen over night)
