I try to eat between 1500 and 1600 calories a day. My workouts are usually like this:

Monday - spin 60 min and WT back and bicep and abs

Tues - bootcamp 60 min and WT chest and triceps

Wed - Run 5 miles and abs

Thurs - Spin 45 min and WT shoulders

Frdiay - either bootcamp or spin and WT legs and abs

Sat - if I am up to it 5 mile run or 75 min of Zumba

 

My goal is to loose about 10 - 15 more lbs so I am currently playing with my workout and food habits to see come changes. smile105.gif

Do you mind me asking how much you have lost so far?

I've been trying to eat everything in moderation and working out 3-4 times per week. I usually do 30 minutes on the treadmill, weights, 4 minutes on the ab ball, and a bunch of squats. Although today the wedding diet consisted of pancakes, mini oreo's and a cheese burger! YIKES!

Well I haven't started yet but my Dr. just told me he wanted me to lose about 40 lbs. He gave me a diet a few years ago called the Pittsburgh Cardiovascular Diet. I followed this diet slightly when I first got it and the weight was coming off. Since then, I've had another child.

 

I am going to start it up again, eventually.

 

If you are interested, look it up online, if not, I can get it to you somehow. Below is the basics of it.

 

For breakfast:

One egg cooked any way

slice of cheese

glass of water

glass of grapefruit juice or a half of grapefruit

 

Lunch:

water,

glass of grapefruit juice or half of grapefruit,

salad, any dressing,

I think any kind of meat on salad

 

Dinner:

Any meat prepared any way

water

glass of grapefruit juice or half of grapefruit

Dinner is where I didn't follow. I would just eat anything I think

meghanmbm - I do not know where I get the energy its not too bad once you get in the habit it usually takes me about 1 1/2 a day. I just do not think I will ever have the beach body but i am getting healthier I tell myself! You should just start out doing a bit then before you know it you will be able to add a bit more then you will be able to continue to add. I got to the point where I was working out about 2 - 3 hours but I did not see quicker results and i was too tired so I backed down.

My sister and I recently joined a gym and are working with a personal trainer once a month. It is so expensive for a personal trainer, but since I am in grad school and splitting the 1 session a month with my sister, it isn't too bad.

 

He has us weight lifting 3x per week. We do arms and chest one day, legs one day and shoulders and back one day (+ cardio 4x a week which includes some combination of stair climber, eliptical, bike, and treadmill for 45 minutes).

 

Our trainer also has us on an eating schedule, which includes:

 

Breakfast:

Egg Whites +

Cereal (Raisin Bran) or Whole wheat bagel w/spray butter

 

Snack:

Protein shake

 

Lunch:

Grilled chicken + Rice

 

Snack:

Protein shake

 

Dinner:

Grilled chicken or Tilapia + a green vegetable

 

30 minutes before bed:

Protein shake

 

I usually only do 2 protein shakes a day because I can't take it that much, but without it...you can't build lean muscle (+ I am a veggie girl and don't get nearly enough protein)

 

Good luck with everything!

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
