Magruter February 27, 2008 Share Magruter Member February 27, 2008 Cut out french fries and cheeseburgers! Pool 2 nights a week is killing me! Burger and fries at least once a week, with some other random fried goodness mixed in on the other days. All of that needs to stop! Put the elliptical back in place, brush dust off of it and get to working out. LIKE TONIGHT!!!! Do that 3 times a week, by the 3rd week reward self with new fishing video to watch while working out. Need to figure out someway to get ellipitcal and Wii to be done together! Would help out a bunch to let the time fly. I'm getting excited, no smoking, no fried foods, and exercising... ...I could be considered healthy for one time in my life. OH AND FORGOT! No more candy... Candy was my backup for quitting smoking, start thinking about cig and grab a some M&M's. Those days are over. I had a lean cuisene for lunch, and small handful or low fat chips and fiber one bar.. Everything totaled 450 calories. Not too bad for a lunch. Now I just need to figure out how many calories my morning PB&J is. What do you guys do for a quick and easy breakfast that keeps you full till lunch? I saw oatmeal, which I do everyonce in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DNA February 28, 2008 Share DNA Member February 28, 2008 OKay so i counted out my calories for the last two days at 1600. I was thinking that if I can keep it between 1600-1800 would be good. This would be done from my normal diet (use the work lightly) of say around 2600-3000. What are you all doing as far as a range for yours? Yesterday ended up being around 1400 which i think is was tooooo low so today I had a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a set number of calories, maybe I should, but I don't. Right now I'm just concentrating on reducing my serving size and getting myself active again. After I get that down I will worry about tweeking it and looking into what my caloric intake is. Shaftiel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playaa February 28, 2008 Share Playaa Member February 28, 2008 I used that website to try to figure out what calories I needed to drop 50 pounds by my birthday (July 23rd). It said "goal weight too aggressive, please select a later date." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magruter February 28, 2008 Share Magruter Member February 28, 2008 K so my Pb&J in the mornings counts for about Bread 140 cal PB 190 cal J 100 cal Which means i'm taking in around 420 calories for breakfast, that's heathly, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bewildered February 28, 2008 Share Bewildered Member February 28, 2008 (edited) Which means i'm taking in around 420 calories for breakfast, that's heathly, right? That depends on what your eating the rest of the day BTW, the female trainer (too lazy to look up her name), from the biggest loser believes that you lose weight faster if you don't eat the same amount of calories every day. Like, you have low days (don't ever go below 1200) and higher days. (We have her book). Edited February 28, 2008 by Bewildered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had heard the same thing, that if your body thinks it is starving then it will store more fat and actually use up muscle instead, so if you mix up the intake your body never starts storing. Mags if you can switch to oatmeal would help you feal a little fuller in the morning. I know that if I have something with sugar in the AM that within a few hours I am hurting. When I do the oatmeal I can make it about 3.5 before i feel the hunger pains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soul .gc February 29, 2008 Share soul .gc Member February 29, 2008 (edited) Food - 6 meals / day 7:30am - 1 egg, 1 slice wheat toast, 1 slice ham, 1 slice reduced fat cheese 10:30am - apple w/ string cheese 12:30pm - ham or turkey sandwich on wheat with handful of grapes 3:30 - fruit/cheese (or protein shake) 6:00pm - small portion dinner, low carb 8:00pm - fruit/cheese or shake Workout: Monday - 30-45minutes Weights Tuesday - 30 minutes cardio Wednesday - 30-45minutes Weights Thursday - 30 minutes cardio Friday - 30-45minutes Weights Saturday - 30 minutes Cardio This is the body for life program. I would highly recommend this to anyone interested. Go to ebay and buy the book and cookbook used and watch the pounds come off. Last Spring I shed 60+ pounds on this plan. P.S. - I have found that if you keep it around 1300-1500 calories and under low carbs you will do great!! I find it easier to watch carbs then I do calories.
