I listed different times because no day is always the same for me, I get caught up with lots of different things, some days I may not exercise before I eat breakfast.

Day 7 is usually rest, sometimes day 6 & 7 are rest and I rotate my exercising to different days. Often I "splurge" and consume extra calories on Sat/Sun (Day 6/7) and weight-train those two nights.

My food choices are usually the same, a LOT of chicken and turkey, veggies and fruit throughout the week. Fish is usually once a week. I don't eat red meats or anything already prepaired (except cottege cheese, yoghurt and beans (which I rinse so they're plain)). I try to count calories best as I can, and limit myself in the 1500-2000 calorie/day range, except when im weight-training then it's a tad higher.

I also forgot to list my beverages, I only drink h2o and tea, around 1gal of water and 2-3 cups of green tea (<3 adagio teas).


Daily exercises I do: Pushups, situps, crunches, pullups, bicycle kicks.

I do pushups 6 days a week, 6 sets of 20-40 pushups depending on how I feel.

I do some minor activities like cleaning around the kitchen, and I probably go up and downstairs around 100+ times a day (I take care of my grandmother who lives with us.)

I started planning all this Sept 30th 2006, and started it fresh in November and have stuck to it. I educated myself reading for countless hours and different books on the internet. It was hard to get going at first but once you do, you can't stop, it's 100% mental.

My tracker is in my signature to show how much I have lost since then.

Wow! Go frogger! :cool:

You can certainly tell you've put a heck of a lot of hard work in already. Welcome to the forum! :)
 
Welcome to the family and congratulations on the weight loss! I was reading over your menu and I haven't had bologna since elementary school...and let's just say that's been more than one decade ago, but I'm not telling just how many. :p

Keep up the great work! :) *OHD shakes her pom poms*
 
Thanks for the support and comments everyone.


I have a question, it's open for anyone with the knowledge but I suppose it would be best directed to the males since the caloric needs for males and females vary.

I'm pretty active all day long, I sit around for maybe a total of 4-5 hours a day and spend the rest exercising, cooking, helping around the house. Most of my day, other that what I listed, is spent helping my grandmother who lives with my parents and I. I won't go into details, but in her ripe old age and condition (not having strength to walk) she is very needy.

My mother and I keep baby monitors in our rooms to come to her call, so we're both running downstairs and backup stairs consistantly throughout the day, I think of it as added exercise. I've even started knocking out 20 pushups after comming back upstairs and getting into my bedroom, leading upwards to 300-500 a day.

Now all of this leads to my question, is limiting myself to approx 2000 cals a day the proper ammount? This is a silly question for me to ask, because I know the answer to my own question, It's no, and that I should be consuming 3000-4000 with the ammount of activity i'm doing, I guess I'm looking for some input on this, or someone to tell me I'm right or wrong.

I'd just appreciate some feedback on this since the only person I speak with for support and suggestions is my mother and some family members, who all think I'm on the right track, which I am, I just have a feeling my calories are a tad too low.

Hi! Welcome! :)

I am not a guy...but my husband is losing weight with me (saturdaysaint), and his calorie intake is 1400/day. I know it depends a LOT on the "diet" you choose! We're on the Dr. Phil Weight Loss Solution, and he's loving it. We were both worried we were eating to much until he calculated them out for an average day for us. We were only doing 1100ish!! Other diets say to start at 2000 and work down as your weight goes down. I think it really has most to do with what is comfortable to you!

Hope that helps...if not...good luck finding what is right for YOU! :D

You're doing FABULOUS!!!!!

Hope you're having a GREAT day!
