I second this! I tried it the other day and OMG SO GOOD!

Also, since I under estimate my exercise (put 30-45 minutes for Kickboxing when in reality it's about 70 -90 minutes) as well as pilates and strength training (by about 15-30 minutes) and also do not eat ALL of my exercise calories back and measure everything - so I'm only not weighing meat (which I am now going to…

I work in television, so sometimes I travel and am unable to log. On that note, when I am on set especially in my most recent travels, I ate very healthy, worked out every morning and was running around a resort like crazy for 12 hours a day. But I have been going at it for a little over a month.

I know to eat enough carbs as my body weight and that lots of water is good for you!

I enjoy working out a lot.. And I feel like I eat a ton! Plus isn't there such thing as too much protein? I am eating 150 - 180 grams per day everyday... I feel like to keep my macros I couldn't eat any more! Also, I am doing an hour of cardio 6 times a week, and weights 4 times a week and pilates 3-4 times a week. I…

I read that the more water you drink, the less you retain actually. I have this dasani bottle that is 36 oz, and I fill it up 4 times most of the time. I most of the time drink about 4-9 glasses of water in the morning/ gym between 8 - 1 pm then drink another 9 in between then.. I could be retaining water I guess? But I'm…

Oh 5 feet 5 inches and 160 lbs.

That is what my friend says, she said 1,800 on my low workout days and 2,100 on my high? I just don't know how to eat that much to be honest. Getting to 1,800 a day is hard.

Yes! I log everything. I do not weigh my food, but I measure it. So the only thing I don't really have complete accurate weight of is my meat. But, I don't eat extremely large portions and have weighed in the past and know about the size of a 4 oz piece. What do you mean stats?

Thanks everyone! I unfortunately lost my HRM a few months back - however, it usually said I burned between 550 - 700 calories. I actually lower the amount of time I do the classes by a little cause I know it could be over estimating and that is why I most of the time go under my calories between 200 - 400 calories for…

BUMP

FAGE GREEK YOGURT! Breakfast - Egg Whites (6) - 35 grams of protein or more (about 120 calories) Snack - Eat 2 cups Fage Greek Yogurt (About 260 calories, 42 grams of protein) Lunch - 7 oz of chicken - (about 240 calories, 45 grams of protein) Snack - I would say protein powder to be honest...but if you don't want to do…

See we only get 30 minutes for lunch.... :( so I really need to utilize that time to eat! and they provide catering for us and healthy options so I feel like freezing meals isn't the best idea unless its for dinner! :) but I think i'm going to try to do some sort of dvd every night thats only about 30 minutes long!

See I could do that at home. but I carpool with three other people!

light or fat free raspberry vinaigrette :) Here is a recipe! 3 cups of green leaf or romaine 1 cup spinach 1 1/2 cups of strawberries or about 5 strawberries 1/3 cup blueberries 1/4 cup sliced almonds (optional) 4 oz boiled chicken 2 TBS of the dressing :)

No problemo :)

yes. I eat dairy and almonds.. Maybe more so protein bars? Anyone have any they recommend?

I get enough fats in everyday with eggs and extra virgin olive oil with my cooking!

ALSO! Congratulations :)

Thank you! I agree not a ton of fruits and more veggies than fruit! Spinach is my favorite :) I add it to everything! The most fruit that I eat are blueberries and small granny smith apples in my oatmeal (my guilty pleasure). I try to eat at least 70% of my carbs by 3 pm each day! And do a small carb / protein snack after…

I've been staying up late, and waking up later... so staying up till 2 - 3 am and waking up at 12 pm! However, I am changing that starting today so I can eat appropriately for my workouts!

Hi! I'm glad you added me :) BUT anyways...go to bodybuilding.com! They let you choose from a list of workout plans that are geared towards what you want! (so for you, lose weight, get lean muscle) I love it and I can always go to a new routine after a few weeks! I do Jamie Easton's and find it tough, but very manageable!…

I will read that! But yes he said thats how many calories I should eat! I do enjoy the idea of Paleo; however, I don't eat a lot of refined sugars - just a few treats! Especially with my age (I'm in my 20s) with friends and all, I can't realistically think of going Paleo though...However I do try to eat lots of veggies,…

Thank you! I will for sure check him out, and if I don't lose weight these next two weeks I will be fb'ing him :)

yes! if you look at the beginning of the post, this is what i'm saying! :) I need to eat more!!! :D haha, I lost more weight while I was in school eating 1,700 calories a day!! But i've been waking up super late since i'm on summer (like noon) but staying up till like 2:30 -3 am...but stop eating by 9pm! I need to get back…

Yup :) I switch back and forth, arms and legs! I follow this program on bodybuilding.com with Jamie Easton! I love it! :)

See, he says NO OATMEAL at all nothing. ZERO. only carbs from meat and veggies...plus I lost 10 lbs eating 1700 calories a day while working out before.. I trust my brother the most...he has only 4% body fat, is the healthiest man i've ever seen...he runs between 13-18 miles a day! (he's on his army's marathon team) and he…

Not really :/ he works at a cross-fit place (even worse cause they probably burn between 500 -1,000 calories per workout) and I go to the gym! BTW, I RUN 3.25 - 4 miles a day plus weights!!! So i'm burning at least 450 calories...he says that's why i'm not losing weight cause I'm not doing HIIT....i'm training for a 10k,…

If you were drinking too much you'd notice, because the effects of water intoxication are VERY fast. I drink between 13-21 glasses of water a day. I haven't died yet! :) But I just love my liquids.
