ASU 2005 Log

ASU, you should post up what you eat on your cheat day. Maybe that would help figure out why you get sick. Don't worry if it's a crazy amount of food or stuff that's really bad... we all do it once in awhile :verygood:. I'm finding that I think I need to not have a cheat day and maybe just have 2 cheat meals during the week. Either Daisy or Sassy posted different cheat options, I'm going to experiment.
 
ASU said:
Thanks ashley :)
I think the reason why Im binging like crazy, because Im not seeing that I have a well planned (diet plan) to lose body fat

Well, I think your diet is pretty solid... I would personally add more carbs in there, since you do so much activity, but again, whatever works for you...

I didn't see any stats here, sorry if I'm blind, can you post em again? :p
 
oh, my cheat day(s).. everything around the house I eat.. I live with my family that eat everything.. :(

Im 5'3 and I havent stepped on the scale ever since I started to binge like 3-4 months ago
 
starting tomorrow for 2 weeks with not cheats!!!

1300 cals with ratio: 40%P 20% C 40% F

carbs will be pre workout and post workout only! and on cardio days carbs will only be post cardio

feel free for any comments
 
I forced myself to step on the scale today after binging from sunday till today :( and Im up 130 lbs!!!!!!!!! maybe 5 lbs of this is water but the rest is the weight I gained lately! I used to be 110 back in october

well....1300.



Follow the EXACT diet listed in the Shaodw summary thread.


it would be PERFECT.
 
This is what Im looking at for the next 2 weeks:

1300 cals
43.5% protein
13% Carbs
43.5% Fat

* Im only counting the carbs from the oats (post workout)
Veggies, cottage cheese, protein shake carbs not included with my 13% ratio

Every Wednesday Night = last meal will have a Cliff bar or a balance bar

I believe you :heart:
what would happen to my temp ? would it be too low?

This is only going to be for 2 weeks and I will increase my cals and carbs weekly after the first 2 weeks
My goal by the first week of march is to be with 33%, 34%, 33% ratio and 1700 cals

Is it really bad? for only 2 weeks?
I see bodybuilders do it with Beverly's International Diet

I see trainers bitching at Skittles that she cant possible lose fat on her diet......doesnt mean its true.


Darlin - bbers supplement with so many things that Im sure T-3 in among them......
 
Youve seen Skittles' pic right?


How can you NOT want to try that program?
 
Im not saying your diet is not worth a try.
I just dont see how this wont work or how it will effect me
 
ASU said:

I know...and that bothers me.


....hey...Im not arguing....knock yourself out.
 
Maybe it will work, but you'll probably feel like shit. One morning I made a shake with water (no milk) & I had a headache BAD. I think you probably need to keep the carbs as is, or you won't feel well & your WO won't be up to par. That's just what I found though.

....hey...Im not arguing....knock yourself out.


why does it bother you?
Im saying your diet will work if I try it

There are alot of changes I have to do to make it work for my time schedule, work, training, etc..

my second meal is usualy my post workout meal and peanuts cant be my post workout meal

I was on a diet once very similar to beverly's (carb ups twice a week with oats, banana, sweet potatoes) and it worked well.. I did feel like crap sometimes. I know the consequences
Thats why Im trying this for no longer than 2 weeks and will increase my cals and carbs weekly after that

Like I said......knock yourself out.


...Im going to REALLY lower my carbs to lose weight quickly and then increase them AND carb content after this burst.



and yeah - no shit...my diet will work....


LOL

ok - lemme know in 2 weeks how much FAT you have lost/gained.

get a bf test now and then


oh - to answer you r question.........it bothers me that someone will do something that is :


A - Illogical
B - Short Term
c -Moving them away from where they want to be

moving them away from where they want to be?

when I increase my carbs and maintain my carbs in the future, it will still be "the healthy" carbs ..

1
¾ Cup Oats, ½ Cup Egg whites, 3 Egg whites

2
2 Slices Bread , 1 Low Carb Yogurt, 2 Strawberries, ½ Scoop Whey, 1 Fish Oil

3
1 Cup Brown Rice, 3 oz. Chicken, Green Beans

4
½ Cup Brown Rice, 4 oz. Chicken, Cabbage, 4 Fish Oil

5
1 Scoop Whey, 5 Fish Oil

This used to be my typical diet
 
I know I will be losing some muscles in these 2 weeks.. but I will be build it up. when I have more confidence with my body weight

no...moving YOU away form having less bodyfat by killing your thyroid production via lowered carbs.....



Good luck....


Im not arguing.....but I am done.
 
I think my thyroid is already a mess :( not having a monthly period one thing
I will be getting thyroid and blood work done 5-6 weeks from now
cant get it done now, since the medication I took is still in my system (birth control patch)

Thanks :)
yes, thats all I need the best of luck

My plan is to have a cliff protein bar once a week for a cheat meal (7:30 pm meal)
I was wondering if this is enough? or should I do this 2 times a week?? maybe every 3-4 days?
 
I chose this bar because its high in sugar and low in fat and protein (good for a cheat meal to shock my body a little)

Ok ASU huney..... I just read your whole journal, and I see that a few people have said what I'm going to say, your carbs are too low, this is why on the weekends you binge. I understand that you want to lose some weight but I don't think this is the way to do it.

Do you feel hungry through the day?

Personal if I go under 25% carbs, I turn into a total bitch, and can't function lol. not saying this is the case with you, this is how it is with me.

How do you feel on your diet that you're on now?
 
miss24k, I know what Im doing now is not very healthy diet plan.
But I know if I focus on it for few more weeks, I won't let the binging happen again

So far... its been 7 days with this plan and Im not having any cravings, although today I will have a mini tweak meal.

Im planing on tweaking my carbs a little twice a week (having a carb meal)
In addition I will be increasing my carbs % ratio.. week by week 5% a week (this will start on the 9'th) till I reach the 34/33/33 plan

Im not feeling hungry.. but when I feel like Im losing energy, I make myself a cup of coffee or Black Tea and add some stevia & nondairy powdered milk
 
I just get hungry after my 1'st meal.. I make sure to eat lots of green veggies with my meals to stay full :)

I don't understand why you would do something that you know isn't very healthy :confused:

Well I hope for your sake that you're able to control your binges, but I'll telling you the reason you're binging is because your carbs are too low.

I feel pretty safe in saying that you'll see more gains if you were to up your carbs abit.

Are you seeing changes with your body on this diet?

I have binged before when I had carbs in my diet ~ 180-200 grams carbs :(
I guess something just hit my mind and I started to binge. It was off and on for a year. and kept my body fat low. October of last year is when It was bad

Yes, I agree with you if I increase my carbs a little I would see more gains

I am getting leaner with this diet. its been only a week and I know what I lost so far is mostly the water weight that I was carrying
 
*Bunny* said:
I use to LOVE those things! LOL I could seriously eat 4 in one sitting, I chose to give up all bars...(i think) :chomp:

I only allow them on cheat days :qt:
what flavor you like the best?
 
That's what I will be having tonight :)
I was debating on the almond flavor and the chocolate chip

Asu - did you have your BF checked fr. the beginning till now?

No, but back in the first week in October when my diet was good.. I had my body fat checked and it was 14% with 109-112 lbs.

As soon as I see my pants fit me the way they used to, I will get my body fat checked again.. but with a diffrent trainer since the old trainer moved :worried:
 
The Shadow said:
..you dont get it Sweets.

the scale number is bullshit.

I get it :) and I also get if my waist gets smaller and biceps staying the same its a sign that my body fat is dropping
 
He's right. In the past 3 weeks I have dropped a pant size, but only lost 3 lbs as per scale. I have also lost inches fr. my waist & hips.

I'm not a pro, but wouldn't it be better to geat healthy carbs ( a bit everyday) than to eat your sugar cliff bar a couple times a week?

That would probably fuel your WO's better & you wouldn't be eatting junk. Maybe I'm out of line, but you would probably see better results.

What program are you following? :)
 
ASU said:

no....ab training will pull in your waist and make it measure smaller with no fat loss....


How long have you been training??



Ive probably been training peopl elonger than you have been lifting...Ive heard all the excuses....and that is what they are..excuses...not reasons..


I think the reason you dont want a bf test is that you KNOW you are probably buring lbm...

Been training for 2.5 years now..
I maybe burning lbm and Im willing to risk that ..as long as I lose the body fat that I have gained recnently..
I can re-build it .. even after I screw up my metabolism

you have stated that your throid is already shot....


...what you are doing is inherently idiotic and unhealthy...

why in the hell do you think your metabolsim is f*cked at this point??


fine...your body..you have to live with it.


but dont expect anyone to sipport what you are doing because it would be the definition of hypocrisy.

Thanks for the adivce :)

I've been learning about nutriton and bodybuilding since 2003
tried many and got help from mods, adminstrators and helped me alot.. I screwed up big time for the last 3-4 months ..and I think now I know what my body can and cannot handle .. I know we need carbs and yes, like I said earlier Im leading my lifestyle into the 34/33/33 plan
