So my diet is working!!!

Whatever is in these protien shakes is totally making my muscles work harder during workouts. Last night I ran/walked for 45 min and today my calves are burning. And my abs are looking very defined.

For those who inquired yesterday of my diet plan here it is:

Oatmeal (1/2 cup) or 3 egg whites with veggies for breakfast. I can have coffee with soy or green tea or any tea. Unsweetened.

snack: 1 scoop protien shake with water

lunch: Protien and Veggie and Fruit (high fiber-like apples or peaches). I can have 1/3 to 1/2 cup carb if I need it.

snack: 1 scoop protien shake with water

Dinner: Protien and veggies

Dessert (if desired): High Fiber Fruit- i like berries.

After workout snack: 1 spoonful peanut or almond butter with 1 cup of soy milk.

Last night I made Shrimp, Black beans,Brocolli and Corn. I added a 1/3 cup of brn rice to the left overs and brought it for lunch.

B/w my workouts and the supplements and the proper eating I will totally hit my goal.

Wow Sandra! That sounds so awesome!

What kind of protein shake do you drink? Where do you get it?

Wow, that's awesome Wish I could do something like that, but my problem is the exercising. No idea what to do!

That's great!!!

GNC Pro Performance AMP Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60.

It says to take 3 scoops per serving, but my FH and his friend (the nutrionist) suggested 1 scoop per serving, twice to three times daily, depending on my workouts and eating habits.

Breaks down to 94 calories per serving than too.

thats great!! I have a question.. I wanted to do a strict diet but I dont like protein shakes. what could supplement that?

---

Before I work out I take a supplement pack from GNC, which has CLA and some other muscle toning stuff in it (and they are pink pills too!!).


I would go to GNC and talk to them. They are really informative there. You can also eat almonds as your snack or turkey roll ups for protien. I'm just lazy and use the protien shakes as a quick replacement for making snacks.

I started the gym last night!! I can barely move, but thats okay.....

how do you have this while you are at work?? I mean, I can't imagine making protein shakes in the kitchen area of my office?? lol

any ideas?

Go Sandra with yo' bad self!!!

I switch it up. If I'm walking I increase the incline and if I'm running, I'd rather run on a flatter surface b/c of my knees ( I suffered a knee injury a while back, so i'm not even suppose to be running, but I do it anyway, I just wrap it).

I do prefer the eliptical over the treadmill. Works out my a$$ better. I would just put the weight loss program on the machine and work with that. Those programs work wonders. Like last week I did one and I wanted to shoot myself b/c I couldn't squat for 2 days without wincing.

My brother told me I shouldn't be doing more than 45 min of cardio per day if I am strength training b/c than I am over doing it. And than you don't see anything.

Interval training is the best way to burn fat! If you run then walk on an incline you'll burn a lot! Get your heart rate up fast by doing short sprints. Then lower the speed and up the incline .. I usually do 45 min on the treadmill. I run for the first 20 min. I sprint every five minutes for a minute .. Then the next 10 min I walk on different inclines, increasing the incline as the minutes go - I end up at 15 (highest it goes) .. The last 10-15 minutes I run/walk alterating every two minutes.

Good luck!
