LadyBlahBlah's Daily Diet Log

[SlimmerMe]

Hi Bla bla....
Good luck on your exam!

Is your morning cardio high or low intensity?
If all you have is 30 min. Make it high intensity.
To get the full benefit of a slow steady fat burning cardio session, u should really set off 45-60 min. Best done when your Glycogen stores are low, like in the morning.
High intensity interval training however is great to burn lots of cals. and set u up for a higher metabolism throughout the rest of the day.
Actually read a study where this type of training especially targets belly fat.
You could do 15 min on the bike, 15 min jump rope, or whatever u wish.

I´m carefully suggesting my daughter to do this, but at 16, I have to be very careful pushing anything.
I printed a conversation I had here with Slimmer, and she rather listen to an anonymous forum name, than her father..lol.
We made those Oatmeal Pancakes the other day, and they tasted very good, especially with the greek yogurt and banana and cinnamon on top. The syrup was unnecessary, at least for us. Next time we will try the batter in the Belgian Waffle iron.

Good to hear this. Perhaps why this forum works for a lot of us if ya think about it. And happy to hear you like the pancakes even without the syrup.

As far as cardio. When I did my 90 day challenge I did low intensity fasted and then my afternoon cardio was more of high intensity. Is there any possibility to get in another one a few days a week? Even if both are for shorter times? There have been studies about doing cardio for shorter periods of time 2z's a day which help BF. And I have asked Phate for the study and hope when he returns he will post it somewhere.

Regardless. You are doing great. This is a process. If everyday or every week you change a habit or add another good one, then you will see a lifestyle change which is the goal while getting rid of that unwanted BF at the same time.

Keep it up. SLow wins this race I am convinced.

[Ladyblahblah]

Okay, so it still needs some work but I can see now (much better) where I can put a little here and a dabble there. Of course, I'm TOTALLY and ALWAYS open to anyone's suggestions!! You all have been SO great and I'm so very appreciative!! I still have so-o many replies to make and will have plenty of time tomorrow to get in the Nutrition Forum with you guys and do so. My Lunesta has already kicked in so I must log off and reply to everyone tomorrow. (I promised myself a long time ago never to do anything online after taking Lunesta again) Lol!

OH!! SlimmerMe, one thing. I have set my big, fat ultimate goal and a couple of small goals so the official weigh-in will be tomorrow morning. (I'll elaborate tomorrow). Therefore, if any of you hear a blood curdling scream sometime tomorrow morning...well, that will be me after seeing my numbers. Hehee.

well you have seen my thread...lol, so yo KNOW it can take time and failures, but you are way ahead of the game allready baby!

After wieghing myself I have actualy had time where I hissed at the scales as I recoiled from it, than removing the batteries and replacing in the hopes that it was 1. broken or 2. was possesd by an evil battery spirit lol

[RaginCajun]

its not a sprint, its a marathon! don't beat yourself up before you have even begun! i haven't heard any blood curdling screams today, so i guess your scale must have behaved!

[SlimmerMe]

Good to hear you have set your goals. Very important!

[Ladyblahblah]

Since you mentioned you might need help determining a time frame, here is what I personally suggest based on my own challenge:
I figured in about 1.5 to 2 pounds a week. Some weeks more some weeks less. So this would be an average of 1.75 a week which for 30 pounds would be about 17 weeks if I have done my math correctly. Plus this all depends on how fast and strict you want to be. For me this is more of a lifestyle change; not a jumping on stage to compete at 4% BF. The key here is to pick foods which are approved around here and eat those so you enjoy this ride and will continue to stay consistent. This is what I thought to be feasible for me to shoot for per week. I'm not sure what's going to happen with me just recently starting HRT and with the sluggish thyroid but I guess I'll soon find out!

I too am hypothyroid and have tried every which- a- way for this. Just basic Synthroid for years. Then switched to synthroid/cytomel . Then just t3 to ramp up my metabolism for a bit. And back and forth. And now have settled on the Armour or varieties thereof whether compounded or not. And the combo of the T3/t4 has helped me immensely. Love that dessicated porcine thyroid! This is so great to hear!! This is the first thyroid med for me to try so I'm trying to stay as optimistic as possible that this will be the one for me! Plus last year went on BHRT for 9 months but am now off of it as I felt I was on too high a dose along with the hgh too. So I wanted to clean out and am glad I did. But this was just me. I know others who would never go off so I am not suggesting this by any means. Sorry to hear that it didn't work for you. My DR doesn't have me on HGH but he does have me taking 5 mg Test daily. I've only recently started and hoping to see some positive results in the future.

So....bottom line: This is a process. I do highly suggest you think of what kind of time frame you want to do this 30 pounds since it will actually keep you focused with a specific goal. Plus you might want to break it down into 10 pound increments so the goals are met to encourage you to keep going. This is EXACTLY what I was thinking! I can't look that far ahead or I'll jump ship way too soon. Thanks for your help and suggestions, Slimmer....very much appreciated!!

So happy you joined us here. Really am.

Thanks, I appreciate this! I am as well and grateful for being made to feel welcome and to have the support I've received thus far ~ it's been great! Thanks again SM!

[Ladyblahblah]

Okay, so I've decided to shoot for 1.5 lbs a week. My first goal will be to lose 9 lbs by December 7th (6 weeks).
Second will be 13 1/2 lbs by December 28th (9 weeks). Of course, my long term goal is 30 lbs by March 14th....
I'm really not sure if I'm insane for attempting to do this right smack dab in the middle of the holidays or....yeah,
I think I'm insane! Lol!

Unless someone comes along, slaps some sense into me and tells me this can't be done, then
this will be my goal. Anyone?....Anyone?....

[Ladyblahblah]

Maybe add some raw oats to your PWO shake to get the cals up.

Thanks so much for the suggestion, auslifta! I've been taking your advice for the last couple of evenings and I really feel that
it's helped. First time adding raw oats to my shakes EVER ~ Strawberry infused oats = complete awesomeness!!

[GirlyGymRat]

I believe in setting realistic goals and urs sound reasonable!! U go girl!

[auslifta]

No problem

You can and will achieve your goals. Don't get hugely caught up in the numbers game though, body composition can change and you stay at the same weight. It's all about how you feel and look. Without doubt following your diet (which is looking awesome btw) and exercise, you will be feeling million bucks in no time. To me that is the best motivator.

[Ladyblahblah]

so it looks like you are taking off with this! like the others said, consistency is the key to this stuff.

Yes, sir! Thank you 00ragin ~ I appreciate the positive thoughts AND the consistency reminder. Unfortunately, I'm an "affirmation"
type of girl so I'll take those reminders to stay on track anytime!...seriously! Hehe.

can't wait to see what is in store.

Me, too! Hopefully less pounds!

Hi Bla bla....
Good luck on your exam!

Thanks, Flier! I would like to say that I made it "my bitch" but since I'm severely afraid of jinxing myself I'll just say that I feel pretty confident that I did above average. Lol.

Is your morning cardio high or low intensity?
If all you have is 30 min. Make it high intensity.

You could do 15 min on the bike, 15 min jump rope, or whatever u wish.

I have always noticed better results with high intensity cardio, however, I have peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage in hands and feet) so I must do this in "baby steps". Thank goodness so far so good, though. I appreciate the suggestion and will hope to be able to do HIIT again sooner than later. This actually reminds me of a question I've been meaning to ask all/any of you...definitely a big thanks for the advice....ALWAYS appreciated!

I´m carefully suggesting my daughter to do this, but at 16, I have to be very careful pushing anything.I thought about you guys the other day. Hope all is going well with everything. I have no doubt that you have and will continue to do what's in your daughter's best interests. I printed a conversation I had here with Slimmer, and she rather listen to an anonymous forum name, than her father..lol.I hate to laugh about that but oh, how this sounds like me and all my girlfriends when we were teens. But in my twenties I wish I would have listened! Lol.

LBB - would you mind breaking those down into meals and list time of day? It'd be much easier to get a snapshot of what's doing...

Absolutely! I'm sure that this will cause some damage control for me, so thanks. I have horrible sleep patterns and am possibly eating too late. I can give a rough estimate on today's but will be able to take closer note from tomorrow on, no doubt. Thanks again, GB!

[SlimmerMe]

Thanks, I appreciate this! I am as well and grateful for being made to feel welcome and to have the support I've received thus far ~ it's been great! Thanks again SM!

You are so welcome and your goals sound like a very thought out plan and very doable. This will keep you focused.
You are already on your path!

Okay, so I have a question for any/all of you...I'm ready to start implementing weights in 3 times a week (unless suggested otherwise) and believe that mornings are going to be best for me for a while until my work schedule changes. I really like doing cardio in the a.m. (and on an empty stomach for many reasons) so would it be okay to do weights on an empty stomach as well? Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions.

[SlimmerMe]

^^ need food for weights. I learned this one the hard way.

[GirlyGymRat]

I foresee another portion of some sort of protein very soon; So, that should increase my numbers a little more. Will edit/update. Of course, I was around a lot of “hot air” today so SURELY that should be full of something, right??

[Flier]

I thought about you guys the other day. Hope all is going well with everything. I have no doubt that you have and will continue to do what's in your daughter's best interests.

I try, but I probably don´t.
I think Sexyformysweetheart posted a study showing the difference in brain function between men and women. Makes so much sense, and was a good read.
What I took from it is, not to try to understand women but to accept the difference.
Re. my daughter she is concerned about the most ridiculous unimportant things, and it´s hard for me to put myself in her position.

She got slammed with everything at once. New school (dance school with perfect bodies in ballet outfits), throwing that party making me more pissed than I have ever been ending with huge consequences like loosing her bedroom, her Android, some of her (bad) friends, her freedom, her allowance, and more. Then to top it off she caught "Mono" or "Gladular Fever" or whatever you call it in english from a boy she kissed at the same party.....arrg. No physical activity for 2 months as this attacks the liver and the "milt"..?
All this because she felt bad about her physique, so she threw the parties to get "creds" at her new school, as she felt she was viewed as the chubby one, and throwing awesome parties would at least make her cool.
And let´s top this further off with boy issues....
I´d like to send her somewhere for a few months...do you have room?

We are however doing ok with the diet.
Oatmeal shake every morning. Healthy school lunch, small meal after school, Dinner, very small night snack. All focus on low carb.
First weigh-in yesterday, 70.7 kg.
Because of her Gladular fever she will do walks instead of jogs.

Looks like you are doing well, keep it up

[SexySweetheart]

No problem

You can and will achieve your goals. Don't get hugely caught up in the numbers game though, body composition can change and you stay at the same weight. It's all about how you feel and look. Without doubt following your diet (which is looking awesome btw) and exercise, you will be feeling million bucks in no time. To me that is the best motivator.

^ Im solid proof of this lol, its hard but try not to sweat the scale #s to much lady

[SexySweetheart]

Agree with all...food is a must before weights and after IMO.
BUT the awesome thing about weights vs. cardio is that when you stop cardio your body stops the high burn...with weights you build muscle and mussel burns more calories and burns cals all day long and depending on what you eat within 30min before and 30 min after ~what you intake can go directly to your sexy lill muskelz ...gotta lovey that!


@ FLIER awwww I can utterly relate to your life rite now. I was a teen living with my dad as well. You’re in for a rough time buddy lol. Poor kiddo sounds like she was just bombarded with cr@p. ..... I always have room lol, although we only foster boy teens {teenage gurls are SCAREY!} LOL How awesome that you guys are becoming a healthy living family! love this and don’t forget that no matter what she says on her moody days, it will never leave her that her dad is so invested in her /her happiness that he researched and applied things to her life cuz he loves her ="}

[Ladyblahblah]

well you have seen my thread...lol, so yo KNOW it can take time and failures, but you are way ahead of the game allready baby!

Yes, I've seen your thread...and L-O-V-E it! I seriously think that if not for your thread I would've lost my mind in the airport that night and I'd be in a Texas women's prison right now. Lol......You're right, though; It definitely takes time, trials and errors, yet, I'm trying to get caught up in your thread and last I saw there were no "failures". Total winning, my dear!!! Huge kudos to you, Missy! I'm seriously trying to get to everyone's threads and see what's going on with you guys. I guess I should probably remove "time management skills" from my resume.

After wieghing myself I have actualy had time where I hissed at the scales as I recoiled from it, than removing the batteries and replacing in the hopes that it was 1. broken or 2. was possesd by an evil battery spirit lol

LOL!! You seriously paint the best visuals!

[Ladyblahblah]

I believe in setting realistic goals and urs sound reasonable!!

As do I, GGR...or at least I try. Great to hear! Being able to bounce these ideas off of you guys is great and extremely helpful for I have tendency to underestimate things too often. I appreciate your input very much!

U go girl!

Lol. Thanks bunches!

You can and will achieve your goals. Don't get hugely caught up in the numbers game though, body composition can change and you stay at the same weight.

Thanks for your optimism and faith in me! You're right and agree totally with the body composition statement....thanks, Auslifta. Years ago I "learned" to go by how my clothes fit, not by what the scales say, so I'll TRY and slowly adopt that behavior again. Probably wouldn't be a bad idea to measure myself as well. Aww, what would I do without you guys??!

It's all about how you feel and look.

Cheers!! I'll drink [a protein shake] to that!

Without doubt following your diet (which is looking awesome btw) and exercise, you will be feeling million bucks in no time. To me that is the best motivator.

Yea!! Great to hear and thanks! I can't wait to feel great again and look forward to feeling better and better every day. I agree, it's a fantastic motivator. I'll say that since I've gotten older the vanity has lessened (can't believe I just said that...yea, me) and the importance of the way I feel has become paramount above most else. Feeling good is the basis for confidence, IMO, and confidence is one of sexiest characteristics that one could possess....Ah, jeez. I'll shut up now. Hehe.

You are so welcome and your goals sound like a very thought out plan and very doable. This will keep you focused.
You are already on your path!

Excellent to hear and thanks Slimmer! Having my eyes on a goal and this thread (and, most of all, you guys) have been so much help in keeping that focus. Although it's only been one week, I feel incredibly optimistic....I love optimism.

Lol I remember when you were reading/commenting while there!
Replace with " increased productivity projectability " (if thats even a word..?) lol cuz your researching the correct ways to get maximum results from minimal effort (rather than stumbling threw this alone with no support or guidance)

Lol! Nice!! I should've had you write my resume.

I think I'll put something in the middle of it somewhere just to see if someone will bite. Something goofy (not me!!) like, make the heading "Will Work For Food". And maybe make myself a "Professional One Eyed, One Horned, Flying, Purple, People Eating Team Leader".... It would definitely add some color.

[Ladyblahblah]

^^ need food for weights. I learned this one the hard way.

Uh, oh. Hope you didn't get sick or light-headed. It's unfortunate that most lessons learned have to be "the hard way".

afraid not...gonna need carbs before, whey protein drink directly following according to what I have learned in this forum

Thanks, ladies! I'll try a small amount of oats in a protein shake for a while...see if that works for me. I guess gone are the days when I could wake up, down half of an Endorush and hit the gym for two hours. Time to work out in a smarter way. Thanks, again!

It took me forever to make myself count everything up from yesterday. I’ve been putting it off because I kinda fell off course last night and was afraid to see the damage that I had caused. I guess it wasn’t too bad after all….could have been MUCH worse, I suppose.

[gbrice75]

lol!!! Diet looks damn good nonetheless... minus the Ritz crackers!

C'mon... if I'm not your stickler, who would be?

[Ladyblahblah]

its not a sprint, its a marathon! don't beat yourself up before you have even begun! i haven't heard any blood curdling screams today, so i guess your scale must have behaved!

Lol! It was just as I assumed; No more, no less. (Thank goodness is wasn't any more ) Got myself here so now I just have to accept responsibility and get myself where I used to be...or as close as possible. You're exactly right, this IS a marathon! Thanks for checking in 00ragin!! Hope your weekend was a great one!

Yea!!! So great to hear!!! Thanks, oodles!

Yeah, I had a bit of a weak moment last night. I'm just glad that moment of weakness did not include chocolate cake.

C'mon... if I'm not your stickler, who would be?

You won't see me complaining, mister! I welcome all the help, advice, beatings, sticklings (????) lol... I can get! If it gets me
to my goal then BRING IT!!

[Ladyblahblah]

I do this too after my work out. 1/2 sweet potato before w/out. protein shake with little oats PWO. love it!!!

I forgot about doing that...thanks for a great reminder, GGR! Appreciate any/all ideas of mixing it up!

Thanks girl ~ I appreciate it very much!! I just hope that my body will become in awe of my macros as well!! Lol! Now, I just need to stay on course....*sigh*

Bump! How ya doin' girlie?

I'm fabulous Mr. Stickler, thank you. I really appreciate you checking in on me and making sure that I'm keeping my focus.
