Hi ladies
I'm a long time listener, first time caller.
I was a fat kid and lost most of that weight in late highschool just in time for prom and after I started doing track, field & cheer. I also used ECA then. I stabilised in college at a great shape for my very short height, due to an active campus life & no freshman 15. But when I started working, driving everywhere and eating like some of my bfs, I was constantly way up and way down on the scale. This was happening every year until Decemebr 2008 when I hit my biggest adult weight. I think that yo-yoing is extremely unhealthy. After a year of slow & steady diet and lifestyl changes and ECA, clen, T3 ....I've reached & exceeded my weight loss goal. I now want a stable, fit & healthy body for the rest of my life.
stats: weight, height, body fat.
- Your goals: what are you trying to accomplish? Do you have a date in mind?
My goal is health, strength and lifelong maintenance of that. I am getting out of years of too many weight fluctuations and I have found it is not as easy as I thought to keep a constant, healthy weight. I wouldn't mind gaining a bit more weight from muscle, but health is my moan goal.
- Your current training & cardio schedule: What’s your routine and how often you train?
Cardio - 3 days a week of 45min run/jog/run followed by cardio videos with weights on my wrists and ankles (a lot of the Beachbody stuff Turbo jam, Rockin Body).
Strength: Alternate 3 days to the cardio I go through squats, lunges, calf raises, arm curls with ankle/wrist weights & resistance bands(full body)
One day per weekend: Hiking trail (6km or 11km depending on weather, mood & scenery)
One day of rest.
- Your current meal plan: including how many meals, portions, what you eat and when you eat.
5 meals per day
M1 - 1/2 Cup uncooked oats or High fibre bran, 10g scoop of whey powder, banana, black coffee with 2% milk
M2 - Mid-morning seasonal fruit & small tub of non fat yoghurt
M3 - Lunch is lean meat(no oil, grilled or steamed) & high fibre salad
M4 - Afternoon 1 serving of whey or high protein shake
M5 - Dinner always before 7. Again lean meat(no oil, grilled or steamed) & steamed/baked veggies
I often skip M2 & M4 if I'm very busy at work, or I replace some meals with shakes. (no taters). If I'm on a cutting cycle, have my ECA 30 min before breakfast (6am) then at 10am, then at 2pm. I lost a lot of the weight with ketogenic diets, but they killed my stamina and I looked like a crack fiend.
Any salient medical concerns...
None except the serious cravings for Snickers and all kinds of high protein, high carb things I get just before my TOM.
