Hey all
You know, I wrote this long post back yesterday and it's gone! I am glad I checked on here --- I will shorten it b/c I'm making dinner ready for two maniacs under 3,
Anyway, I was writing yesterday that first of all, THANK YOU ALL for the input and secondly, I am going to take the advice here and wait until my BF is down. Quetion though: I have a scale/BF scale and that is where I'm getting my nubers from. Should I have a trainer at the gym do my BF? I can't see how the number is so high. But nonetheless, I really don't want to 'waste' the clen and I'd rather take it when I will see better results. I am NOT one who believes any drug to be a miracle pill - I used to, I admit, but I've smartened up about that, haha. I am going to continue the cardio, and gym workouts and strictly stay on my diet for the month of April and come May 1st, I'll see where I'm at.
I am not sure my diet is so great, but here's a typical day for me:
Breakfast: coffee w/ cream and Splenda, sometimes hard boiled egg or egg white.
(Have 3 egg whites 1 yolk anyway you like it, but not fried. 1/3 cup of oatmeal or cream or buckwheat. Coffee is good, but NOT CREAM)
Snack: usually almonds (unsalted) or nut mix... sometimes yogurt (yoplait light), cottage cheese, sashimi no rice, vegetables (I love broccoli rabe, broccoli). I usually drink Crystal LIght PInk Lemonade throughout the day.
(Have a small meal here. If you have nut, just g=have a few. NOT half a bag or a bag. No Crystal light till you get your diet in check. That will only help you crave anything sweet)
Lunch: sometimes leftover dinner from the night before, grilled fish, salad.
(Grrilled fish and salad is good. Have some brown rice as well)
Snack: same as above but usually it's grabbing almonds or nuts while I'm busy with the kids during the day.
(Skip this part)
Lunch: my husband and I eat great for dinner. Sometimes we'll make chicken, fish, shrimp, steak... all made healthy.
i pretty much don't eat too many carbs, NO sugar at all, NO candy, NO soda...I've cut out alcohol since Monday 100% (wine was my downfall). I don't smoke or anything like that. (
You mean you don't have simple carbs. Carbs are good. Oatmeal, brown rice, vegetables, quinoa, couscous. Anything that comes from the ground)
My exercise is number 1, constantly running after my 3 1/2 year old and 1 1/2 year old, haha, butwhen at the gym I do lots of cardio. I do free weights at home almost every day, crunches, push-ups, stuff like that.
Today I weighed in at 131. That is about 3 lbs. down since Sunday. I will track my progress here, you all are very very motivating!
Thanks again, NIKKI
