[NJFASHiONiSTA]

Hey ladies I've posted times before awhile ago and so much has gone on since anyway heres my stats
108 lbs
5'2
24 yrs old
BF% last time i checked was around 19
Goal weight 100 and TONED

OK in June was hospitalized for appendicitis and then had surgery to have it removed while in recovery the surgeon came in and also said he found a large(10cm) benign mass called FNH(focal nodular hyperplasia) in my liver which would have to be removed although its not a true form of cancer nor can it turn into that, for my quality of life and future pregnancy surgery would be the best option. My surgery is scheduled for Nov. and i just was allowed to start going back to the gym now. I need to feel great before going in to this big operation I want to see my body nice and toned im skinny now but thats it-skinny fat i normally dont eat much maybe like 2 times a day 3 eggwhites on ww bagel w/butter and dinner would be whatever.(steak and broccoli) I understand diet is the first thing that would change the physique along w/excercise. I have a meal regimen plan here that i wanted someone to "look over for approval" so i feel comfortable eating all this food( b/c i feel like ill be eating hella lot more than im used too and im kinda nervous that ill gain!)Dont hesitate to critique or add any good snacks or meals u have in ur regimen.

Meal plan looks good just one suggestion go for a granny smith apple rather the a red delicious less sugar in them.

Another thing you might think about is not focusing your goal as a number on a scale. Who cares what the scale number is most important thing is how you look in the mirror. How clothes fit that sort of thing. Always remember muscle weights more then fat.

Or another way to look at is is that your weight tells you the total weight of your muscles, fat & skeleton. Its the fat part that you want to decrease & not the muscle. If you can track your bodyfat you can also watch if you are losing muscle or fat. Another easy way is to watch if your clothes are becoming looser but your weight isn't changing much.

A couple thoughts - if you are prone to being skinny fat you might want to be really surue you are getting enough protein. Skinny fat is when you don't eat enough and your body has to turn to your muscles as an energy source.

I'd recommend you put this diet into a food counts program like fitday.com to see what is the actual amount of fats, carbs & protein. Since you want to at the least maintain your muscle, probably increase if you can in the next 2 months w/ weight training, eat 1 - 1.2 x your weight in lbs = total grams of protein / day. And then make sure you are eating that much / day - i.e. dont' just say "I have a hard time eating enough, so I just won't be able to eat that much." Consider this your assignment to MAKE SURE you eat that much. Its important not only so you can get to a happier bodyfat level, but also so your body has the resources it will need while its dealign w/ the shock of the invasive surgery you are preparing for. The cleaner your diet & the less shit (i.e. free radicals) your body has to deal w/ the more iti has available for recovery.

Thanks for the tips what are good ratios? i know sometimes you tweak them to suit your own lifestyle but should i do a basic 40 potein/30 carbs/30 fats ratio?
