YES, that one hurt my macros a little for yesterday. I didn't quite make my calories or carbs for the day - grrrrrrrrrrrr

I just responded to your post in my log. Wanted to stop by here again and ask a ?

When you are low carb- do you find it hard to get in enough calories? I am eating all day log, and I see that youa re too! But maybe I'm missing something?

I think I understand your question correctly, but let me know if I am way off. I have a calorie limit of 1200 on my low carb days, so for me the calories add up QUICKLY, and half of the time I am starvin like marvin by the end of the day!! So, in a way it is HARD to make my calories NOT go over 1200...lol Did I answer your question?

My trainer told me on my days off to eat 1200 and 1800 on the days I workout, do you eat 1200 all the time?

On the other days what are your calories averaging? How are your workouts going on the low carb day and what do you choose to workout on those days?

Thanks

Oh, really quick. On IP's squat video, I didn't touch her on the last rep. She got all of them.

Today's were even BETTER. She did it 7 times today, and she worked for it! I was a PROUD husband!

Moderate Carb days = 1350 Calories
- I only have one of these and it is on my moderate lifting day

High Carb days = 1500 Calories
- I have two of these days a week and they are both scheduled on my HEAVY lifting days!

Low Carb days = 1200 calories
- I have scheduled these to land on my cardio days and my one day off

Hopefully this answers your question and helps you out Let me know!

Go IP go IP GO!!!!!!! Great job, Girl!

GOOOOO TEEEAAAM!!! Thanks for cheering for me SG! (they need a little cheerleader icon )

I got the greatest compliment today, in a weird sort of way. I had a guy at the cafeteria walk by me with his buddy and as he passed, my other workout buddy (besides my husband) overheard a guy walk by me and say… “man that woman works out!” I don't really know why, but that just really made me smile and feel great inside! Also, it's almost weird for me to say this, but I can honestly say I am actually very happy with the way my body is right now. It has been a LONG while since I have been able to say that. I never thought I would ever be to say that at a weight over 120lbs!! But, I am feeling more lean, and being lean is actually making my 5’2 body feel taller! I've had "issues" in the past, and for me to feel this way is really a true blessing from above. I can't even begin to explain how different I feel and how wonderful it is. And SO MUCH of the reason is because of all you wonderful ladies!!! Thank you so much...you'll just never know...

With all that said though, I am still on a mission to reach 9% body fat!! lol
