  • BPC (bullet proof coffee): 1 tbs butter 1 tbs coconut oil or mtc oil 1 tbs heavy cream So. Much. Goodness. And keeps you satisfied for a LONG time. I've had it at 7:00 and lasted till 2:00 and still not that hungry.
  • You are fancy! *bows in respect*
  • Keep lifting too with as minimal cardio as you can get away with. Cardio will distract from all the gains. You seem to know what you're doing.
  • Also check out youtube. There's alot of good channels out there for both men and women looking to compete.
  • Would always love more friends! Y'all's successes are always motivating! Keep calm and Keto on
  • BPC fat bombs minus the coffee or on the side. 1 tbs butter 1 tbs coconut oil 1 tbs heavy cream 1/4 serving protein powder of choice (I like quest peanut butter.) I make a batch on the weekend. It's one serving so multiply x5 for the week. I put them in cup cake cups to grab and go.
  • You probably need more calories daily. 1200 is low especially if you're working out hard with a trainer. You're just hungry. Try upping your calories to 1500 a day or maybe 1700 on days you work out with a protein keto shake after (1tbs butter or coconut oil + protein powder of choice) and then 1350 on days you don't work…
  • I too would like more friends! Seeing others successes is always motivating!
  • This is probably going to be a question you have to figure out with what works for your body. I'm currently doing keto right now. Part of the research I've done told me that when carbs are low, excess protein can be converted to sugar the body can use. What I take away from this information is that enough protein should be…
  • I've been doing Keto for about a month. In that time, I initially lost about 5 lbs, and I'm well aware it was water weight. Since then, I've mostly gained... similar to you. My next move is to track more precisely. By this I mean, measure everything... which kinda sucks. However, I know I'm in Ketosis, my next deduction is…
  • I was a competitive swimmer in college. The best thing for hair and skin is to shower immediately after getting out of the pool. There's shampoos and conditioners out there meant to get rid of chlorine from your hair. If you don't want to invest in this, dove soap is gentle on skin. Then also immediately after drying off,…
  • I dabble in it. I was a veggitarian for many years. I swam for my college, so for protein while on the meal plan I started eating chicken and fish again (increase healthy options in the cafateria). As far as maintaining the lifestyle, it's relatively easy. You can pretty much do anything with fish that you could do with…
  • It's probably not a good idea so save all your exercise cals for one day (ie earn 1000 exercise cal and eat that much extra on one day) However, it's perfectly normal to eat 100 -200 cal less than the exercise cal for the day and save a couple days for a friday/saturday night dinner with friends. While it's the daily…
  • If you have green tea powder, 1 cup skim/light soy milk, 1 tsp green tea powder, 2-3 splenda packets. Blend with ice. Delish dessert, snack, cool summer beverage.
  • Thanks for all the input! I've done the work out two or three times on days I couldn't make it to the gym. I'm just curious as to the results if I were to actually follow the plan. Like some of you said, it's short and you have to lift dumbells on one leg. So while I want to supplement it with extra gym time, I'm curious…
  • I agree with the other swimmers. How I miss the days of busting out multiple 200 flys like it was cake! Just watch for yardage. Less yards/sprint practice = anerobic and less caloric burn. massive amounts of yards = more aerobic and tons of caloric burn. Also, remember to drink tones of water. You sweat even if you don't…
  • This might be a bit harsh, but really you're being melodramatic. One "screw up" doesn't mean you're off track. Awknowledge it, Try to realize why it happened and how to cope in the same situation next time. Live and learn, and keep chuggin'.
  • If you wrote this, it's awsome! It makes me miss the days I swam in college! Good for you for welcoming it into your life. The struggling will make the vicotry in the end even sweeter!
  • He wants you to make a move? Take your clothes off. You just made it that much more easy for him. and remember, you're sexy and you know it
  • whole unprocessed foods are best. That being said, luna bars generally taste pretty good
  • I like using the pb2 in shakes: light soy milk banana and pb2 powder. Maybe some Splenda. Alone in replace of peanut butter, I can't stomach it. The real stuff is too good.
  • It is a good idea to compensate for the calories you did over eat. However, try to exercise an extra 300 - 400 calories, or spread out the extra deficit over a couple days (i.e. 100 cal per day).
  • I usually try to review my goals and WHY i'm doing this. Why is it important for you to lose the weight? If I think about that before I eat something unhealthy, I'll usually put it back because it's not bringing me closer to my goal. Also, planning your meals/snacks helps. This way, you already kjnow what you're eating for…
  • It's hard but instead of thinking about food as in indulgence, pick an activity like an extra long shower or a massage. I realize this doesn't always work. In my experience, switching a food just makes me want that food instead, and I ususally eat more because I think it's healthier, so I just go find the actual food…
  • EGG WHITES! Sometimes... I like to add a bit of cinnamon and splenda to the egg whites while I fry it and its reminicent of French Toast mmmmmmm nom nom. You can also mix it in with anything basically. Omlets, tuna (cooked obvi), cheese, sushi, the list goes on. Also, I actually mix protein powder into my oat meal as an…
  • Theoretically speaking, you should be able to eat what you want as long as it's within your caloric goals. However, everyone's different. Try eating differently and see if the scale budges? You have to find what works for you. Personally, I feel better eating a healthier diet, however, when it comes to losing, as long as I…
  • First off, nice job at sticking with it. I have two ideas: 1) You could be calculating your calories incorrectly or your portion sizes. Are you measuring everything? It's obnoxious but so important. It's so easy to underestimate the amount of food you're eating. 2) I don't know if you're eating your exercise calories or…
  • It's a personal preference for how you feel. If you're not hungry, don't eat; if you are, then eat. Exercise is supposed to help you create a larger calorie deficit in order to lose weight. However, you need to make sure you're eating at least your BRM daily.
  • First, it seems a bit unhealthy to have lost 10 lbs in two weeks at your weight. Second, I'm not sure about weightloss and your bellybutton, but I know that I need to use titanium for my piercing because my skin is really sensitive. Perhaps it's the metal, not the weightloss.
  • Your number actually sounds right. It's a common idea that eating few calories (1200) is the only way to lose weight. However, this is very few calories. The BMR that was given to you is simply to maintain your weight if you were in acoma. This means that eating that many calories with basic movement of daily life should…
