Getting the protein!
Sep 23 2009 14:06

Just like TBL we have to get our veggies and fruits. funny I was never really much of a fruit eater apples was all i would eat, now it's peaches, the odd pear, grapes galour, strawberries, blue and black berries, mangos, canteloupe etc....for veggies I usually make a stew for all that or have 1 veggie with a meat for dinner...I just have trouble pushing the veggies. 

Now that I am cooking just for me since Kyle has moved out it's different I just have to remember to check my analysis every day and...

push the protein I think my weakness is because I am deficiting, I am getting at least 1200 though but my body seems to need time to adjust now, so when I am riding my bike I have to get more protein I am afraid if I don't my muscle mass will shrink.....

My biggest concern everyday I check several times throughout the day 'my analysis' and whatever I am low on is what I eat come dinner time..so if it's protein I eat more meat...if it's fiber i eat more cereals and soluable veggies etc...this is what I am doing now daily.

Goal 140ish I was 161-165lbs all summer , but due to smarties, M&M's and yogurt ice cream I gained afew to 178 I am now at 171 but must stick with it.........no cheating.

I am tired of hearing people talking about cheating though, I need to be with people who can try to be more consistent otherwise I end up cheating too...birds of a feather and all that....I wish myself and others could be more reliable i need someone to look up to, everyday I go on the thread lately and hear about this one eating ice cream or M&M's or a peice of pie or chocolate cake....THIS IS SUPPOSE TO BE A MOTIVATIONAL SITE, I need motivational people, so come on girls where have you all gone?? ggrrr..lol
