Me 1/2009 @ 188 lbs
Today I met with a fitness coordinator affiliated with the U.S. Military. My husband is in the Navy so I get a whole lot of benefits in regards to a better, healthier me. One of those benefits happen to be the free gym as well as a fitness coordinator. So, you're asking yourself right now 'what does a fitness coordinator do'? Well, shes the one who works in the gym that gives you a detailed rundown on what you should be eating in your diet to lose weight and shes the one who shows me how to use the gym equipment efficiently to lose weight. I learned how to use a few machines and thats IT....
Let me tell ya'll something..... she didn't teach me anything that I didn't already know. The diet she laid out for me was what I am already eating. As a matter of fact, I gave her quite a few pointers. Heres a few of the ideas she took from me, she was so excited to have my tips as her own and asked if she could share them with future clients, I said sure. I told her:
- Take an Omega 3 (fish oil) with 1 meal daily
- Eat sugar free 70 calorie Jello Pudding cups for chocolate cravings
- Use the powdered Fibersure Fiber powder in my water (5grams of fiber per serving)
- Eat Kashi 7 grain crackers with Laughing Cow cheese for a snack
- Eat edamame beans after my work out
- Drink Lemon Water to detoxify and get the digestion system moving(more on this later)
- Wear weights on my ankles when doing house work to get maximum calories burned
- Use frozen fruit and blend it with yogurt to get my milk and fruit for the day
- Always pair up a sugar, fruit, or carb with fiber in order to keep blood sugar levels normal
Your blog is so informative. Keep it up!!
