I just got off the phone with the bodybugg lady. Pretty much it was just making sure that I knew how to use all the features of the site - which I hadn't used all of them, but really could have figured it out by myself, however it's nice of them to make sure that you know what you're doing.
A few questions that I did get answered and thought you might want to know too:
- She said to weigh your meat *after* it is cooked.
I remember when I did LAWL in Louisiana that they said if you weigh it before hand, to add 1 to 2 oz. Like if you want 4 oz of chicken after you cook it, then weigh out 5 to 6 oz of raw chicken.
- She also said that for normal cardio and workouts, you need to eat at least 1/2 gram of protein per pound that you weigh. She said if you do harder workouts or if you're doing resistance training, then to go more towards 1 gram per pound. So, if you weigh 200 lbs, that's 100 to 200 grams of protein, depending on what you're doing for your workouts (yes, I know that you're not stupid and can do that math. I don't know why I put it in there.)
At one point she said "well you're pretty little" - talking about my weight for my height - and I thought, and then said, "that's the first time anyone has every called me 'little.'" lol It felt good.
And according to my food chart, I should lose another two lbs this week (I weigh in for bodybugg on Wednesdays), but I know that's not going to happen. For the burrito and the cookies I had no idea what to put for my nutrition info, so I just eyeballed it and averaged. I hope that it's not too bad anyway. I was at 155.8 this morning, which is .6 lbs lower than last Wednesday. I hope that by tomorrow it's at least a pound. My official goal for bodybugg is 1 lb a week.
Anyway, I'm thinking about getting Brielle up from her nap pretty soon so I can go to the gym before the kid's club closes (I hate that it closes from 1 to 4). I need to go *sometime* today anyway.
Goals:
Keep my calories between 1200 and 1300
Drink 3 to 4 bottles of water
exercise
Oh, on another note, I bought the Kashi TLC pumpkin spice bar (kinda like a granola bar) and boooooyyyy, is it yummy!
