Just Under 8 Weeks Out

[WonderLiz]

I have not tried gluten free things. I mainly get my carbs from starchy veggies and oatmeal and Ezekiel bread. I used to take a pro biotic to help with bloating and digestion.

You're not gonna get metabolic damage that quick. It takes more than that to bottom it out. Sure it will slow down but it's not that big a deal. But yea if you don't come up you will have to progressively more cardio to make up for the lack of metabolism.

Regardless if it sucks you should cycle your carbs so that you aren't bottomed out and can still lose the rest of your bodyfat. Unless you're going to keep low and actually get into ketosis which is a totally different animal.

There's still much to learn about my own body composition as well as the sconce behind it. I'm just a newbie lol. But I really do appreciate everyone's input. It's nice to not be alone in such a difficult journey.

I don't even wanna tell you what I'm supposed to be eating vs what I'm actually eating lol

I have a modeling gig on Sunday... and I'm carb depleting right now (<50 grams carbs per day)...

I just ate 2 lbs of chicken and I'm still starving. PIZZA! FRENCH TOAST! CANT WAIT FOR MY CARB UP ON SATURDAY!!!!! RARAWRWAR

I'm not a very good person to be around when I don't have carbs in me... hahaha

I want another cheat day so freaking bad!!!! I've been craving a bean and cheese burrito with sour cream and guacamole and extra cheese. I literally wake up thinking about it! I'm not so bad without carbs anymore, I just get tired and a tiny bit cranky. I've been thinking about getting some of that gum that's supposed to taste like a dessert. Right after my fitting I plan on stuffing my face with some chicken and sweet potato!

And when I said I didn't wanna tell you guys what I'm supposed to eating vs what I'm actually eating, I was referring to the amount of calories, not the actual meal plan.

I hope this doesn't come across the wrong way, but not doing what your coach says and not telling him what you're doing is the same as not having a coach

[WonderLiz]

If it's any difference, I'm not paying him for advice he's more of a gym partner and my boyfriend lol. I take his advice into consideration and I do listen to him, but in the end I'm gonna do what works for me.
