Where I'm At
Sorry, I had a headache all day, so I just did what I had to do and took a nap in the afternoon. :)
If you all have time.... I know you all have lots of time with nothing to do! LOL!! Can you share here in a comment what your meal plan/exercise looks like? I have been talking to dh and I have yet to come up with what I should do. Cut out all sugars and more
protein and less carbs I'm thinking. I just haven't had a chance to sit down and write out a plan. So that is where I am at right now. I need a boast!!!
I'm writing this out on my iPod, hopefully there is not many errors. Lol

So sorry that you weren't feeling well! :(
ReplyDeleteMy plan looks like this:
I aim for 160g protein daily. I have yet to make it there...124g carbs - LOTS of non-starchy veggies there! Also choosing fibrous and high-complex carbs (least processed) over simple carbs. 32g of fat (nuts, oils, etc)
M,W,F are strength training days. I am using this workout for the time being: www.home-weight-training-for-women.com/workout-plans.html
T,T are Peak 8 days. Sat is regular walking.
I am heavier than you or Nataly... so my numbers are a bit higher...
ReplyDeleteI aim for 175 grams of protein on my strength training days and 150 on my cardio days. (They say you should eat about 1 to 1.5 grams of protein per day per kilogram of body weight if you are weight training.) I try to have some higher carb. days and some lower carb days. I don't worry about most fats because I feel your body needs fats... (Of course, there is a difference between potato chip fats and things like avocados, butter, and coconut oil!)
I limit sweets, but I'm not much of a "sweet" eater. I allow myself one treat per day.
I eat 5-6 "meals" per day... really each is more like a large "snack". Each one has some protein with it... and on higher carb days I usually have a whole grain carb choice or high fiber choice with it as well.
M,W,F are supposed to be my Weight Training Days on the Total Gym... and T,R are my heavy cardio days. Saturdays I still exercise... but it's more of a "choice day". I may choose to ride bikes, go for a walk outside, swim... whatever... Sundays are my day of rest.
Saturday night to Sunday night are my "free" times... but I still try to stay "health conscience"... but I *do* eat what I want. :)
Hope you are feeling better, Tanya. I'm looking forward to catching up with you.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a real plan as of yet. Working on keeping out the refined sugar, getting in a serving of oats daily (for milk supply), heavier on protein than carbs, and keeping my water intake up. I'm still in the 3 meals plus 3 snacks a day mindset from the GD. It's helping me through the hungries I get while nursing right now.
I find that logging WHAT I eat helps me make better choices before I eat. I'm going to start thinking about what tool to use to log my daily food and exercise.
