Thanks for answering my question.

Under your training videos can you post the exercises # sets and reps.
Thanks

How about a video of your grocery haul.

Awesome! I've been following your journal quite a lot recently, and something that's been on my mind is how did you start out weight training before you had a trainer? I've been weight lifting for about 3/4 months now, but I'm very aware that I could do more and progress much faster with a spotter. I'm the only woman in the gym who lifts though - and no men will want to spot me because at the moment I'm lifting much less weight than them, and can't afford a trainer...

Thanks for the advice, I posted a comment/reply to you video to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNZssk_Izc8
What I said:
For myself I would like to get leaner looking just to look better.
So to sum it up:
1. Be patient and persistent
2. 1 gram protein for 1 lbs. of body weight
3. Lower carbs, not sure by how much or what’s a good amount?
4. Find current calories and reduce by what… 10-15%?
5. Weight training and high intensity cardio
6. Be patient and persistent

I would say reduce calories by 10% to start (after fats are about 20% of your calories, reduce the rest from carbs) and measure your progress weekly. Yes Weight training and HIIT cardio, but you can't really do more than 30 minutes a day so if you need to create a larger deficit if you hit a plateau then you should consider adding steady state cardio (incline treadmill walking or biking with resistance are what I would recommend). Thanks for watching and commenting!

Has dieting for a show affected your body image at all? do you suffer from post comp blues?
