Hi!!!! Glad you decided to post...now give us some more info on yourself......we'd love to get to know ya
Thank you all for replying and making me feel welcome more about me? I'm about 20 yrs old, 5'6, 113-116 lbs, I work out 5 days a week, do cardio 3-5 days (after my workout), I'm trying to clean up my eating habits -more protein, lots of veggies, fruits, less fat, staying as far away from McDonalds as I can!! My goals? MUSLCES!! I joined the gym in early January, and I absolutely love it. I think I'm making pretty good progress so far, but I've got a long way to go! I've seen some of the posted pics on here and I must say you girls look amazing, I know it takes a lot of hard work and dedication to achieve that. One day I'll get there!!

I've seen some of the posted pics on here and I must say you girls look amazing, I know it takes a lot of hard work and dedication to achieve that. One day I'll get there!!Usually for breakfast I'll have one hard boiled egg, one piece of toast (unbuttered), some fresh fruit or veggies-most of the time a few strawberries, a sliced plum, kiwi, grapes, a banana, celery sticks, or raw baby carrots, i try to switch them around so I don't get bored- and a glass of 2% milk. Sometimes I have a half a cup (uncooked) oatmeal, with one hard boiled egg, and again some fruit or veggie. Lunch is usually a tunafish sandwich and small salad-lettuce, tomatoes, broccoli, carrots, etc. And dinner usually consists of some sort of meat... steak with steamed broccoli, or mixed veggies.. gound beef with mashed potatoes and veggies... chicken and veggies, or chicken and salad, etc. I have a protein shake after my workout, and sometimes one throughout the day as a snack. I usually go to the gym later on in the day, most of the time I have dinner an 30 min-1 hr or so before going, other times I have a snack or my lunch about 30 min-1 hr before and then have dinner after I get back. Once in a blue moon I'll wake up early enough to go in the morning, but that is not the usual case. Any ideas or suggestions?? I need all the help I can get!!

Welcome girly A source of "good fat" would be natty peanut butter or Flax seed oil, Hemp oil... you could also try Salmon and kill 2 birds with one stone
it has protein and fat I love it with egg whites for breakfast

Welcome! Yes, I highly recommend the natural peanut butter...I think it's my new favorite food...!
I had similar stats when I joined here, and now I've bulked up to about 130 from 119 and 5'4", though IMO I look the same size, just not jiggly...learning to replace my five-days-a-week of cardio with more weight training was one of the easiest and quickest things I've ever done to improve my appearance...
I believe my diet was similar to yours as well...cutting out fruits is tough, but once you discover the wonders of natural pb, you'll forget about those silly strawberries right away...
Good luck with your goals!Similar threads
