tattoo514 Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 So, I'm 42 yr old, female, vegan X 7 yrs. I've lost 30 pounds over the last year and a half. Now, the big plateau. I really want to get the scale going down again. I'm 5'3, 150 pounds (not for long). I'm really pretty strong and have been training with weights for years. I want to maintain strength and lose this extra weight. I usually do circuit-type workouts with no rest between sets(with varying weights/reps to keep things fresh) 3-4 times per week. I do cardio (usually HIT)3-4 times per week. Obviously sometimes I workout twice in a day. 11/29-10 minute cardio warm up DB incline bench 35# X 12,8 then 25# X 10 Db OHP 20# X 8,8,6 Tricep pull downs 60# X 12,12,10 Lat pulls 60# X 18, 15, 10 (need more weight) EZ bar bi curls 20# X 12,12,10 3 sets of 30 squats (no weight) alternating with curlups X 20 and planks finish with 15 minutes on the stairmaster Food-Oatmeal/1/2 banana/ 1/2 cup almond milk Homemade veggie stew green salad/balsamic sammy-sprouted barley bread /vegenaise/tomato/lettucez-bar seitan tacosRoughly 1200 cals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tattoo514 Posted December 22, 2010 Author Share Posted December 22, 2010 Wow! I'm a slacker! I haven't been here in a long time! Life has been crazy!Anyway, I've lost 3 pounds since here last, but I'm stuck again. I'm still getting my workouts in. Trying to get at least 5 hours/week doing mostly HIIT cardio and circuit training. I think I just need to watch the calories. This time of year I fell like I'm always drinking. Hey, I love a good beer, what can I say?! So, food for last couple of days-12/20-coffee with silk nog (another temptation this time of year) sprouted bread veggie sammytofu scramble (tofu, broccoli, spinach, onion, peppers, carrots, yams)bits of "meatloaf" on greens for an interesting saladseitan tacosuno cerveza 12/21-coffeesammywrap on ww tortilla ("meatloaf" greens, tomato)apple airpopped popcornz-bar15 almondsanother sammy (time to go food shopping) Tattoo today!
