making the fat go-go away; my journal

Hi! :heart:

Going to be posting up my diet/routine if there ever is one, to help me try really hard to keep it in order and improve upon it! I know that it is far from perfect right now, which is why I may need your help... Plus just putting it up here everyday helps me see where it needs improvement and it keeps me from slacking and cheating so much.

Stats and stuff:

Height: 5'5

Current Weight: 128lbs

Goal Weight: 115lbs + Tight, Definition, Muscles :)

Not sure what my Body Fat is at... I really need to get that tested soon - will post ASAP

I don't have any deadlines/dates to achieve goals by... Maybe I should? Really I just want lasting healthy results/ a lifestyle change that I can live with and be happy with...

No medical issues

I don't want to do any steroids... will go for protein powders to keep diet in balance when working out but I think that's about it..

I can't stand using the calorie counting/logging websites... I have tried and tried and failed and failed, it just doesn't work for me....

Have read all of the stickies :)

Right now I'm still in the habit of running for 40 mins a day, I've been gradually boosting my cardio up with sprints and I'm hoping to get back to the gym soon!

My diet has really been so full of SHIT within the last couple of months... lots of sugars and refined foods... BUT making lots of changes everyday.

Any advice is really really very much appreciated! :) :rose:
 
Went for a HARD run first thing this morning

Two Eggs with Cheese (Aged) (Should I try to cut the Cheese out?)

Orange for a snack

Ate some Peanuts too...

Yogurt (Vanilla Organic) and a Spinach Salad (yyyummm)

Some apple and pear

I kinda couldn't resist... Bought a dark chocolate bar, organic, freakin expensive.. Ate two squares and then gave it away lol...

Green beans raw and some of that happy planet, extreme purple...

I wanna go to the gym but it closes in an hour... I will probably go for another run before bed.

damn... now I can see I did not eat very well at all despite my efforts.... :(

That diet isn't so bad , and a little cheese isn't either. When cutting weight dairy is usually a nono especially in larger quantities, but I personally AM a cheese lover and have. A slice or 2 everyday and can easily cut. I think your diet could use a little more protein in my opinion, as protein is good for boosting metabolism and holding onto muscle while in a deficit, possibly adding some cooked chicken to your spinach salad or even like a Tuna spinach salad. A little protein with every meal can go a long way for feeling satisfied and giving your metabolism a boost. I think someone smarter than I will chime in soon enough anyways lol
 
Yeah I think I'm going to have to add some tofu in there somewhere tomorrow... and maybe some more nuts... or maybe soy milk.. hmm.......

Most the fat is in my legs/ass... I hate it... I've been 115lbs before, it looked healthy and I felt awesome :)

Great starting a journal :)

Protein is a macro nutrient composed of amino acids that is necessary for the proper growth and function of the human body. While the body can manufacture several amino acids required for protein production, a set of essential amino acids needs to be obtained from animal and/or vegetable protein sources.

CHEESE--Of all cheeses low sodium Parmesan cheese provides the most protein with 41.6 grams per 100 gram serving. It is followed by regular whole Parmesan at 35.8 grams of protein per 100 grams. That is 10 grams of protein per ounce, and 3.6 grams per cubic inch. Other cheeses like Romano, Mozzarella, and Swiss provide around 28-30 grams of protein per 100 gram serving. Softer cream cheeses, or spreadable cheeses, provide the least protein with only 16 grams per 100 gram serving



Beans--The older, larger, and more mature a bean gets the more protein it carries. Mature roasted soybeans have the most providing 39.6 grams of protein per 100 gram serving, or 68 grams per cup. They are followed by mature Lupin beans which provide 15.6 grams per 100 gram serving. That is 25.8 grams per cup.


Roasted Pumpkin, Squash, and Watermelon Seeds
A popular food in the Middle East and East Asia pumpkin and squash seeds provide 33 grams of protein per 100g serving, that is 74.8 grams per cup and 9.2 grams per ounce. Watermelon seeds provide slightly less at 28 grams of protein per 100 gram serving. If you can't find these seeds in your local supermarket you will surely find them in Middle Eastern or East Asian specialty stores. Alternatively, you can also save any pumpkin, squash, and watermelon seeds you have and roast them in your oven. The seeds are typically consumed by cracking the outer shell and eating the seed inside.


Yeast extract spreads are popular and A good vegan source of vitamin B12, the spread also packs a lot of protein. One hundred grams provides 27.8 grams of protein, that is 1.7 grams per teaspoon.


Almonds, Lentils, pulses, and peanuts (a legume) are a great vegan source of protein. Peanuts provide the most protein with 23.7 grams per 100 gram serving or 6.6 grams per ounce, 0.2 grams per peanut. Lentils provide the most protein when consumed raw at 25.8 grams per 100 gram serving, and 9 grams per 100g serving cooked (17.9 grams of protein per cup).


Also don't forget Sunflower seeds, Flax seeds,Cocoa Powder ,Sesame Seeds and pecans all have an abundent of protein.

Radar you are a genius
 
I remember yrs ago the whole site went into shock when i posted that i wasn't Black....That thread went into a bunch of pages lol!


And to boot, Guess what? TODAYS MY BIRTHDAY! :)
 
Kudos for putting up a journal!
Are you taking a multivitamin? Any Omega 3, 6, 9 supplements?
I highly recomend both.
 
No oops I always forget the multivitamin but I do have some.. I don't know if it matters but it is Jamieson Super Vita-Vim.. Still need to pick up more Omega from the store ahh!

Added almonds and Tofu since my last update but haven't been eating as often as I'd like to because two jobs keeps me overly occupied sometimes :(
 
So I have been taking the multivitamins I mentioned above and I bought Omega's in the liquid form, eek it tastes disgusting but it is loaded with good stuff so I will withstand it. :)

I learned how to do skullcrushers! My arms need a lot of work... but just the small amount of things I did yesterday has made them swollen today which feels great!! Anyone have any other ideas for something I can do at home? I have a bar and I have dumbbells in 5lbs, 10lbs and 20lbs right now.

Run in the morning on an empty stomach. Adding as many sprints as possible until I am exhausted.

2 Eggs (I've excluded the cheese for now until I get the low fat parmason) and an apple

Bowl of Yogurt with a mix of nuts

Sushi!!! I can never resist. Besides, it's not unhealthy.. is it?

Cucumber cranberry and peanut salad.

I just made some vermicelli with peanut cashew sauce homemade so it is clean. The salad was not filling enough...

Cherries!!!

Drank so much green tea today and I bought some new green tea which also has Goji berry yumm!!!

Are you just looking for exercise ideas for your arms? Here are a few ideas...

- Skullcrushers (which you know how to do) - you can do them with a DB or your BB
- DB Kickbacks
- French curls/tricep extensions
- DB or BB curls
- Hammer curls
- Preacher curls

Hey cangal thanks!!! I'll have to check out what they are exactly on youtube, looking forward to learning how to do them! :)

Mmm I love sushi... it's like candy! Especially the spinach salad or tempura yams mmmm........

Arms are really important to me right now but I still need to learn some good exercises for legs/butt/back as well.. I'm not sure if you can do much with dumbbells and a bar for other parts of your body? Ahhh this is where I need a lot of help, lol...

Hey Kitstreasure :) the tea is a pretty poplar brand, it's called Stash Premium- Goji berry green tea with matcha.. and it's soooooo good. Cures my cravings for juice!
 
So this is my meal plan goal for now - Six 200 calories meals throughout the day spread about 2.5 hours apart. So 1200 calories per day.

Morning RUN and SPRINT

Stretch

Meal 1 - 1 Egg and Yogurt and Tea (Take Daily Vitamins)

Meal 2 - Peanut Butter and Apple or Banana

Meal 3 - Green Salad with Protein (Nuts or Tofu)

Meal 4 - Salsa or Hummous with Crackers and Some raw Vegs

Meal 5 - Vegies (Like baked Yam or Brocolli or Beans) with Brown Rice (Tofu)

Meal 6 - Snack on nuts (Almonds, Peanuts, Cashew, Brazils, etc)

I want to keep adding workouts to the end of the day......... Weights and more cardio.. focus on one muscle group at a time... is this diet going to be Enough??
 
I love sushi too. I thought getting it with brown rice would be gross but I actually like it better. I have not had sushi in a while now. So reading your meal plan has me going crazy for it! LOL

BTW, kick ass job. Keep up the good work.
