Ladies - please help I need advice

[samantha]

Here's the deal. I'm 31 years old about 150 lbs, and 5' 8. I have two kids 13 & 9. I've never exercised much, but I am at the point where I really need to. I'm terribly out of shape and my stomach is disgusting. When I have begun to work out I don't see an improvement quick enough and become discouraged. I want to start working out, but I want to take steroids in order to see faster improvements. I am aware of the side effects. I know nothing about steroids and was wondering if anyone has any advice on which ones I should get. Any advice would be appreciated. I don't want to waste my money on something that doesnt work.

I plan on changing my diet and working out every day. I just want something to help me develop muscles and/or burn fat quicker. Is there anything?

[hotpink]

Clen and var! I'm doing that cycle soon. But like ramblin said, you won't get anywhere without a good diet and workout already. When I wake up, I go to the gym and run 3 or 4 miles, go home eat. I eat 6 meals a day, alternating protein/carb and protein/fat, about every 2-3 hours. I go back to the gym around 4 and do weights for about an hour.

hey hot pink, congrats on becoming pink, i'm still waiting. eating 5 to 6 times a day is my problem. I omitted bread/rice/complex carbs totally out till I drop weight, when do you have time to eat 5/6 times a day, do you force yourself even if your not hungry, please recommend.

[hotpink]

Well the key is smaller portions of course. If you regulate that, it is much easier. Honestly I've had trouble making the sixth meal lately, but no, I don't force myself to eat. I think I still need to tweak my portion sizes myself. Instead of eating a whole piece of chicken, I cut it in half, about the size of my palm-or some like to say the size of a deck of cards. Portion sizes are really the staple to losing weight, of course what you eat as well. You can also still lose weight while eating carbs-I do! I eat carbs 3 meals out of the day...oatmeal usually every morning, whole-wheat pasta, whole-wheat bagel, raisin bran-just remember whole-wheat or multi-grain. I wouldn't cut them out completely though. Its hard to completely deprive yourself of something, it usually results in a relapse and a pig out. Just regulate!

thanks for the input. Girl.....your good. I found that carbs and me don't mix, even whole wheat. They "plump" me up. I'll have a little bread on a cheat day but I need to cut it in order to lose weight. Thanks for the advice, look forward to viewing you log.
