yesterday I finally made it back to the gym and things felt ok at the time, however, I feel terrible again this morning and my resting pulse is 82 (usually about 60), so I suppose I'll need to stay off a bit longer.

13.00 porridge, bread with PB, yoghurt
16.00 cheese slice and 2 rice cakes
17.30 lean steak in red wine/mushroom sauce (not sure if this is ok) + steamed veg. kiwi fruit
21.00 veg soup, apple
22.00 chest/shoulders/triceps/wrists/core workout (yay!)
23.00 PWO shake
00.00 tuna on toast

Rest up, princess. It is hard to wait it out, but better in the long run.

I am back. I am exhausted. We got a puppy while we were up north . He is adorable, his name is Ole (Oh-lee), and he is a Norwegian Elkhound. He is also very rambunctious and not quite crate trained...so, he is barking less at night now, and is starting to understand that crate=quiet time. The furry cardio king, Magnus, is finally starting to accept Ole, after much doggie drama. They still both have to have the same toy (100 tennis balls and they would still argue over the same one...). Last night was the first night that I actually got some sleep. I am still going to try and nap today when Ole naps. It is fun to walk the dogs together, my daughter walks Ole and I walk Magnus. Ole will be an awesome running companion when he is older.

My diet has been awful recently - peanut butter sandwiches are quick and easy and I can make them in my zombie-like state... I will get back on track today!

Welcome to the post, Wanglais and Cristalbel, the more the merrier!

Welcome back Asimmer and may I welcome Ohlee too??
Princess, no need to appologise, just wasn't sure, They should only make toys so strong and no no need to change batteries!
Like I said, romntic. Sorry for carrying on! Now I must go change and train!
Asimmer......was it at least natural peanut butter, or did it contain those super naturals, like hydro and sugar?:big_smile:

Hi all,

I am a newbie. I want to lose 50 lbs by next June. I just had a baby in July. I want to know how do I start a diet plan? I have given up junk food as of yesterday. I have the following exercise equipment at home: A Treadmill & 2 (5 lbs dumbbells). I was thinking about doing the Slimfast Plan. I know it will take some time lose the weight.

Thanks in advance for your advice.

cristalbelle - add some protein to each meal/snack and you will notice results very quickly.

low-fat string cheese, tuna fish, low-fat deli-meat.
Right now your diet is heavy on the carbs and low on protein.

Cut out those mini-cookies and muffins and you will do yourself a huge favor.

Ya cristalbelle, cut out the crap!:big_smile:
I had 2 glasses of wine last night, which stopped any thermogenic effect for sure.

ONETHINGIRL...... Don't do a slimfsat diet. First off, you can get better nutrition from real foods, and second, when you stop the slimfast, you will gain your weight back.
My suggestion to you would be to eat foods with protein, good carbs, and good fat.

Had a great cheat meal tonight.wow. heres what the furnace concumed today.

8:30 coffee, high protein cereal
9:30 yogurt
10:50 coffee
12:30 shredded beef in pita, with lettuce and tomatoe and diet pepsi.
2:00 trained
3:30 PWO shake
4:15 yogurt and 1 apple
5:00 handfull of cashews and some almonds (natural)
7:00 cheat meal for this week 6.5 slices of medium size pizza with meat sauce, pepperonni, cheese, mushrooms, greenpeppers at my friends restaurant (Not a franchise pizza). Can't believe I ate all that! My wife only had 2.5 peices!
8:30 coffee.
All in all, it was a great week.

Ate clean over the weekend, but I'm still struggling to get rid of this virus, so I have decided to relax the diet side of things until I'm better.

I will still check in and give advice where I'm able, but I'm not going to post my meals - this has worked so well I find it very difficult to relax my eating if I'm posting everything!

cristalbelle - I usually carry an emergency protein bar or bag of nuts in my handbag for situations where I find I'm not eating regularly enough.

hope everyone had a good weekend :)

Here is what I had yesterday...ugh.

No breakfast(at in law's house)
8:00 Vente Peppermint Mocha Frapuccino w/o whipped cream
1:00 1 chicken strip and 10 JoJo's w/ranch
7:00 Ground turkey tacos w/lettuce,tomato,cheese,ff sour cream,brown rice and garlic tortilla (I had 2)
8:30 Big glass of milk

I am thinking of buying the low carb slim fast shakes or a premade protien shake to take with me to work to add in extra protien and calories so I don't have to go down to the convenience store when I get hungry and don't have a lunch.

CristalBelle don't waist your $$$ on those slimfast shakes. They are not good nutrition. If you read the label, you will find that there is not much protein, alot of carbs and fat, not to mention the processing. Spend the same $$ on a good MRP.

Didn't eat well today. Actually forgot to eat breakfast, but had a great workout anyway.
7:00 2cups of coffee
9;20 trained
1045 PWO shake
12:00 subway turkey and ham on whole wheat (no sauce) with water.
2:00 Protein bar
3:30 yogurt with handful of almonds and cashews (natural)
6:00 5 chicken fingers (chicken breast) coated with cornflakes, ground fine) cauliflower, rice.
8:00 coffee with a biscotti
9:30 MRP.
10:00 going to sleep.
Until tomorrow!

Ivan, are there any good protien shakes that come already made (cans/bottles) that are cheap. The only reason I said slim fast was because I know it is cheap enough for me to actually buy in order to get more nutrition. As it goes, here is yesterday, and I think it was a lot better.

6:00 Mixture of ground turkey, brown rice, eggs and cheese
10:00 Nutrigrain bar
11:30 Hostess berry "pie" (don't really know what they are)
1:00 Apple
2:30 Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich on winter wheat bread
6:00 Grilled cheese sandwhich and chicken noodle soup.

Quoting from CristalBelle:

Ivan, are there any good protien shakes that come already made (cans/bottles) that are cheap. The only reason I said slim fast was because I know it is cheap enough for me to actually buy in order to get more nutrition. As it goes, here is yesterday, and I think it was a lot better.
==================================

I don't know what to recommend to you, because there are many supplements, and prices. Maybe the supplement route is not the way to go for you.
What you CAN do is bring some hard boiled eggs with you (they don't have to be refrigerated), and perhaps those small one serving cans of clover leaf tuna, in water, some nuts, fruit, all these are less expensive than supplements, and are nutricous. Hope that heps you.

Today didn't go to well on the eating side of things. Didn't eat enough.
7:30 coffee
8:30 chigh protein cereal
9:40 trained
10:45 PWO shake
12:30 1/2 of a chicken, green beans, and some saurkraut, green tea.
3:30 coffee
4:30 green tea
6:00 beef stew
8:00 MRP

I'm here, been watching, but too tired/pressed for time to post..

Depressing week, had big dog put down due to aggressive behavior (should have done it four years ago, but couldn't. Vet reccommmended it because he was getting more aggressive and stressed out). Ate a lot, drank beer, didn't get much sleep.

Things are normalizing now, Ole is sleeping almost through the night, I am starting to feel almost rested in the morning. I lifted on tuesday and will do cardio today..

Started my day with bodybuilder pancakes, will post the rest later....

Christalbelle - check the new slimfast labels and their ingredients, supposedly they are coming out with a lower usgar, better quality slimfast. The old stuff is lots of sugary and low-quality ingredients.

A large tub of Protein powder is cheap when you break it down per serving, and you could just throw some in a drink/shake bottle and add water at work.

Also - look up the post in the FAQ section on eating healthier for less - under the grocery tips post.

You just need to commit to making/packing healthy meals to take with you, it doesn't take that much time/effort and will propel you towards your fitness/physique goals.

I'm not using this as an excuse, but my husband works on a commision, and in the best of months, we do have the money to buy extras that are healthy for us(nut's,yogurt,cottage cheese, ect) However, in the fall and winter months, 99% of the time, we don't have enough money to buy ANY groceries at all. I guess I will just have to do my best with what we have, and accept that results are going to take a really long time. Here was yesterday

6:00 Honey nut cherrios and milk
9:00 1/2 apple & nutrigrain bar
11:00 15 baby carrots
1:00 peanut butter and jelly sandwich(sugar free jelly)
2:30 Still hungry, so bought 5 jojo's from the store downstairs (.80$)
7:00 Spaghetti w/ground turkey pasta sauce

Won't be eating anything today, as I had a gall bladder attack last night. Will try to get down some flat ginger ale if I can.

Not to get OT, but asimmer, sorry about your dog.

Everything was fine for me until last night. I had some pretzels and almonds and cashews. Maybe a little too many. So, it wasn't crazy, but not what I wanted to do.

Christalbelle - bulk oatrmeal is cheaper and better for you than honey Nut Cheerios, Bulk brown rice is cheap, frozen fish is often cheap, especially on sale (I get two pakages of pollock fillet for 3 dollars quite often) beans are very cheap, especially if you buy dry and cook yourself. Sweet potatos and winter squash are very inexpensive and healthy. Often i buy frozen veggies on sale for 99cents a bag. It is all about what you want and how much effort you will put into it.

My diet as a broke college student was very healthy and cheap - oatmeal in the morning, black bean burritoes on whole wheat wraps for dinner, cut up veggies and tuna for lunch...none of it was expensive or too time consuming. I am not trying to come down on you, but it is a matter of perspective, i guess. I can eat cheaper sticking to healthy foods than eating junk like jojo's....

Yesterday :
Bodybuilder pancakes

Shake: frozen peaches, oat bran, isopure, Udo's oil

leftover steak on salad greens with 1/2 oz pepper jack cheese and drizzle of light ranch dressing,
sweet potato soup (slice one small sweet potato, bring to boil in pot with 1 c lowfat chicken broth, simmer until soft, mash up, add 1/2 tsp olive oil spread, gradually mix in 3/4c skim milk, heat through. Salt Pepper to taste, MMM)


Out running around - grilled chicken burrito and 1/2 a quesadilla (not very good...) diet coke...

It all went to hell in the evening, had some sweet potato chips and some bass pale ale....

Getting back on track - the pup didn't bark at all last night. (Thanks for the consolation, Wanglais).

My left wrist is killing me today - don't think i will be lifting. :(


Wanglais - sounds like you didn't get too outta control - just get back on track. I will, too. :)

Sorry you've not been well cristalbelle.
When I was a student I used to eat healthy on a budget too. I would eat lots of lentils, beans etc. and I found that some grocers would reduce fruit and veg that was about to go out of date (i.e. perfectly ripe!). It did mean shopping daily for veg, but it was worth it.

Sorry about your dog too Amy.

I am much better now. I'm sticking roughly to maintenance calories, and I think relaxing things has helped.

Forget about those dinners fitncosmoogrl. They might be low in the fat dept, but not good in the carbs and sodium. They are processed, and defeats the purpose of healthy food.

Well lets see if I can remember what I had yesterday.
8:00 High protein cereal

10:45 pwo shake
12:50 1/2 bbq chicken, baked potatoe, salsa

Yesterday was horrible, so if you want you can just ignore what I ate.

8:30 English muffin w/scrambled egg,canadian bacon, cheese, and coffee
10:00 Slim fast low carb breakfast bar
12:00 Hub's came and bought me lunch 1 Chicken strip and about 3 jojo's (they weren't that appetizing..my body knows they are bad)

No dinner. We had a birthday party for a friend at our rec room, and after waiting an hour and a half with no one showing up, we called the people, the friends gf got pissed,said she wasn't going to reimburse us for the money we paid to reserve the rec room, her mother got involved and called the police....it was just about the stupidest and most uppsetting thing that has ever happened to me. I am not hungry at all today because of it, so who knows if today will be any better :angry:

Yesterday

No Breakfast
1:00 1 cup bbq beef, 2 tortillas, water
7:00 chicken chow main, bbq shrimp, and some rice

Was dealing with having 25$ essentially stolen from us, and my husband having his best friend tell him to never call or speak to him again. Which is worse, in times of stress, overeating or undereating??

Undereating is the worst thing to do as you lose muscle tissue and slow your metabolism.

It depends on how often these things happen how you deal with them. Consistency is the most important thing. If you have a stressful day once a week, then you could call that your "cheat" day or day off, and if you eat a bit more than usual, no problem. If it's happening more than once a week, you need to find a different way to deal with your stress that doesn't involve food, or you will not reach your goals.
I find working out is a really positive way to deal with stress.

Saturday is my usual cheat day. Had some sushi, sweet and sour chicken and ice cream. Back at it Sunday. Going easy in the gym with the freakin' pinched nerve in my back. All is well with the diet otherwise.

Hey! Where is everybody?

I have been absorbed in new puppy-parenthood (i am in love...) and not sticking too closely to anything like a plan... Got sick of it all today and went to the bookstore for inspiration...going to kick some bad habits for good and move forward.

I hope everyone is well and will post a good day tomorrow.:)

Wow - the holidays must be really taking a toll on everyone's diets!!!:surprised:

I can say that I ate decent portion sizes and only had seconds of stuffing. Pretty controlled, for me. The stuffing was healthier because I made it, it was made with herb seasoned bread cubes (wheat and white mix), prosciutto, pine nuts, onion, pears and olive oil/broth. Turned out really tasty!

Have been working out everyday, except Thanksgiving, when i was on my feet from 5am cooking...

Breakfast and second meal today - leftover stuffing, at breakfast it was with an egg and some egg whites. Second meal it was with some leftover turkey.:big_smile:

I hope everyone is doing well!
