Necia Back In Effect Log

None of you can make a decision to save your life!!

That's supposed to be a Libra trait -- indecision......

And that's what I used to do with veggies at work -- keep a bag of it in the freezer just in case......

I can't make a decision to save my life. You are so right. Imagine all the questions I would have for you people here, if I didn't take it easy. Sometimes I just toss a coin and decide that way. Terrible, isn't it.

Necia,
If you're training hard you need some carbs for energy so that you don't waste your time on the gym. Remember that the body if not given enough nutrients will start eating your muscle and making more reserve fat.

I was looking at your posts and couldn't find your weight and height.

However, my initial suggestions are the following:

Meal 1 - 7:40 am
4 egg whites
1 cup oatmeal
1/2 cup NF cottage cheese.

Meal 2 - 11:00 am
8 oz water
1.5 scoops Syntrax Nectar Apple Ectasy
1/4 melon
1 green veggies salad
1 cup of green tea

Meal 3 - 1:45 pm (Post workout)
1 cup cooked Brown Rice
6 ozs skinless chicken breast w/bone, pan seared with cooking spray.
>>add some veggies to this, like spinach, broccoli, peppers, etc....

Meal 4: - 3:00 pm
1-2 scoops of your protein
1 grapefruit

One question... is meal 5 the last meal of the day?? or do you eat something else afterwards??

Usually I get up to Meal 7. I haven't entered today's meals or even finished entering yesterdays, but if you can see what I ate on Wed. I finished posting on Thursday. Thanks so much for your input.

Oh btw, I weigh 220 down from 253, and my height is 5 ft 51/2". I still have a ways to go but I'm confident I will reach my goals in due time.

I would usually let between 2.5 and 3 hours between meals... so considering that, you can make adjustments to your meal times, therefore meal 4 would be around 4:00 pm then...

Meal 5 - 6:30 pm
1 scoop of your protein
1 oz Almonds

Meal 6 - 8:30 pm
1 can of tuna in water
1 big salad of green veggies

I'm guessing that you were having less interval of time between meals because you were hungry. Don't forget to take at least 3 liters of water, multivitamins and antioxidants.

Hope this helps
