Poop The "I just got back from the gym" and this is what I have eaten thread. - Page 201

SenselessChiefsFan · 11-28-2009, 07:40 PM

Okay, so there are a ton of guys in here that are working out, trying to work out, or 'thinking' about working out.

So, I figured I would start a thread. I am all about making myself accountable. The more people that I tell about working out, the more people I would let down by not going.

If you go to the gym.... then post here when you get back. If you do P90X, post here when you get done. If you ride the excercise bike.... post it here.

Anything you do to get in shape.... share with the board. I know I have gotten some great advice and feedback.

Also, post what you eat. If you post everything you eat, and you know others will be critical, you may think twice before you grab a Twinkie.

Okay, so, I went to the gym. I did five minutes on the cross climber to warm up. I stretched for about three minutes.

Then, I did three sets of squats with just 135. I did back extensions and hanging leg lifts. Three sets each. I did leg curls, calf extensions, abductor and adductor excercises as well.

On my leg day, I do very light chest exercises to work on my explosive power. I do three sets of six pushups as explosively as I can. I throw the excercise ball up like a chest pass while laying on the bench.

Then, I finished off my workout with 30 minutes on the eliptical.

As far as my diet.

Breakfast two pieces of peanut butter whole wheat toast, protein shake, and banana.

I have had another banana, two yogurts, and a handful of cashews as snacks.

I didn't have a 'lunch' per se.

Kids had sloppy joes with lean beef (as if that makes it great).... I took a baked potato, and put a serving of sloppy joe over it, with jalapenos and 2 oz's of lowfat cheddar cheese.

I have also had shotgun with water, and synthesize with water.

I won't eat again before bed.

Okay, I know putting everything down here will open me up to criticism. I know some will think that I am doing things all wrong. I appreciate any advice, but I have done a lot of reading and talking to trainers.... so, I have an idea of what I am doing.... or at least what I think I am doing.

The point of this thread, isn't to get into pissing matches about how to do things.... but rather to give ourselves a gold star for making an effort.

Try not to beat anyone down on this thread, because this is about encouragement.

What is your dinner and snack? What do you put in your coffee?

What weight do you want to be? If you go down to 1200 or even 1300 calories a day, you're going to lose weight. It doesn't matter when you take the calories in. The whole eating before bed, in the morning, snacking through the day, bullshit is just unnecessarily complicated. You just need to lower your average daily calorie intake, and you'll lose weight.

Also might focus on cutting down on refined sugars.

You've entered the accountability zone.

I answered your damn question!

Now tell me why you asked!

I see why she chose that user name

I would imagine it's really not that hard, especially for a woman with a low BMR, to exceed her daily allotment of calories just by eating a lot at dinner. If you have a big plate of spaghetti and go back for seconds and eat a few slices of garlic bread, that could easily be 1000 calories or more.

I know a guy who eats a sensible breakfast and lunch but last time I checked but he's massively overweight because he just eats and eats and eats at dinner.

Disregard if you're eating a sensible dinner.

No shit. I can't freaking imagine having a maintenance of around 1200 or so. I can pound that out in a single meal, easy.

Actually I asked because I thought maybe you might be at a good weight and just be extremely anal about wanting to have 5 percent body fat or something. And that's really, really tough. Especially for a women, who naturally are supposed to have higher body fat percentages than men.

Cream and sugar in the coffee, maybe six cups a day. Dinner is normally something I cook, meat, veggies, and a starch (potato/bread/pasta). I couldn't imagine I eat 1300 calories a day. I do drink a couple of bottles of water with kool aid packets poured in.

I'm a b****, but not a shallow one.

If you're not losing weight, you're taking in more than 1300 calories a day. I've got to go to bed, but I imagine that Silock will help you out tonight. Dont' blow off what he has to say. He knows his shit and will help you figure it out.

Good luck and welcome to the CP fit club.
