  1. Thanks for the great info! I definitely agree that diet is oh-so important when it comes to seeing results! Thank you so much!
  2. I will be posting my weekly productivity (fitness training-wise) once a week at the end of each week, as well as recent progress and calories being consumed for each day. HEYA! here we go!
  3. 'Back' days would be something like -pull-ups -seated rows -one-arm rows -lat. pull downs I took the strength training part of this routine from one that Diana Chaloux (my inspiration!) had posted. I'll try it for 3 weeks and change things up a bit if necessary. hmmmm, yea good call on bi's and tri's. I think I might do that. Thanks! I'm teaching in Laos at ARDA language center. Best experience of my life so far! Got the gig through a friend that is cousins with the center's manager.
  4. I saw your training posts - Girl your training numbers are amazing! You're a beast! oh I know it seems way too easy to indulge in nuts. They're just so darn tasty! I'm actually teaching English here until December. It's my first experience of being away from home for a long period of time, which is what I think attributed to my nasty eating habits. I've started eating 4-5 balanced meals a day to keep my metabolism revved but still keeping it under 1500. I'll be posting results 3 weeks out (maybe some pics?) and will continue to post my results every 3 weeks. Great idea on putting up a training log. I think i'll do the same, to keep myself accountable and to get some feedback. This is what my routine will look like: Cardio: 6 days a week (40-50 min sessions) - both HIIT / steady rate Strength Training: 6 days a week Monday - back, cardio Tuesday - chest, abs, cardio Wednesday - shoulders, cardio Thursday - triceps, cardio Friday - biceps, abs, cardio Saturday - legs w/ plyometrics in between sets, cardio Sunday - active rest This is my 3 weeks routine. After 3 weeks I'll plan on tweaking it a bit, keep my body guessing. Definitely keep me posted on your results and when you're competing, thats so exciting! Rootin' for ya lady!
  5. yikes! I don't yet have photos, but I've made a before video and plan on tracking my progress every 3 weeks. I think i'll wait just a bit to put up pics as I'm in that tender "yuk!" phase with my body. I'm not happy with what I've done to myself (eating dirty DIRTY foods) but I'm moving forward and pressing on to a better lifestyle. Most days I have been logging my calorie intake at around 1500 and try to keep that at my max. However... on the weekends when I'm not busy I get binge-y which has completely been a damper on my weight loss results. On a good day this is what my typical meals would look like: Breakfast: -1/3c oatmeal, 2tbs seed mix (pumpkin/sunflower/sesame seeds), fruit Lunch: -1c beans, 1c rice, 1c veg Snack: - fruit, 2tbs seeds OR 1serve almonds Dinner: - usually same as lunch *This is on a GOOD day. temptations really set in at night time and I get snacky. Most times I'm able to over come but on the days when I'm really bummed out or feeling depressed, I gorge. I also don't have access to clean protein powder here (I'm in SE Asia middle of nowhere) so I've been getting my protein through diff. sorts of beans/nuts/seeds. I am planning on ordering some Sunwarrior Protein Powder when I get back to the states in December. Looking forward to it! I do belong to a gym and in fact I'm starting my fitness regime on Monday. I'm making it a point to get my booty to the gym 6 days a week and eat purely because I'm wanting to do a bodybuilding/fitness competition in Italy which is 8 months down the road. WOW! good for you! What an accomplishment! Are there any bodybuilding competitions you're looking at competing in? How were you able to shed the 40 lbs? Whats your workout routine/diet like? You must feel amazing!
  6. My new goal in life is to become a fitness model! I'm a 20yo woman, 5'6" currently weighing in at 167lbs. I'm not sure what my body fat % is due being in an area where such devices are not available. I'm wanting to lose 42lb of fat and get down to my previous weight ( I was 125lbs in high school, 18% body fat ) I've definitely let myself go since then and it's killing me! literally! I would like to get my body fat a little lower than 18% and get competitive in fitness modeling, but i'll worry about that when I get closer to my goal. For now I'm looking for expert advice on how to lose the mass of my jiggles. Thank you kindly!
  7. Hey y'all brand new vegan here. Goal: 42lb fat loss/ compete in fitness model competition Monday I start my self-motivated training to become fitness model ready. No doubt this will be a tough road, but I'm in it to win it. I'm ready to get the best body of my life through clean eating and intense exercise. Any inspiring words of motivation and transformation stories would be fabulous! Growing up I was the little chubby girl. Then, high school hit and I got involved in sports and started watching what I ate. My body soon transformed into a great one! 5'6" and weighing in at 125, 18% body fat and lookin' fly. After high school the feeling of not being in a set schedule really threw me off balance and I found myself eating, and eating, and EATING! Once I saw myself getting soft and big I didn't care so much about what I put into my body. I started feeling self-conscious and secluding myself even more, meaning, I wasn't moving my body as much. Now, here I am. 167. Yes 167lb. And here I stand today ready to melt it all off and now have a new found passion to become a fitness model. I want to show the everyday fitness guru what can be done through a vegan lifestyle, eating whole-foods and exercising intensely. So here I go, setting off on a journey that is a new beginning to the rest of my life!
