I am on the same team as brandi... want to get toned but not bulky and reduce about 5 pounds.
I have the following diet plan:
Breakfast - 6:30 AM, Wheat bread, milk, yogurt or cereal with skim milk
8:30 - 9:00 Jogging ( only Mon, tues, wed, thurs, friday)
10:00 AM - fruit snack
1:00 PM lunch (Steamed veggies, raw carrots and cucumber beans/chicken, rice on the side)
4:00 fruit snack ( Apple/ orange/ cantaloupe/peach/plum/Banana...)
6:00 Dinner( Wheat bread, rice, veggies and chicken/egg whites/fish)
9:00 ab workout and dumbells at home( only wed, friday and sunday)
10:00 Milk
and ofcourse more than 8 glasses of water throughout the day. No soda, no alcohol, no sugar in coffee.
But I am sure I am not doing it right since I am continuing at the same weight for the last few months and of course can't see or feel the muscles yet
I can't change my workout schedule 'cos I have too many things to take care of at home.. a kid, cooking... you know a working mother...
If you have any suggestions for me as well then please respond..
