I started at 150 lbs 9 1/2 weeks ago.
Started the bikini Bootcamp 14 days ago at 155.
And ended our 10-day push last week at 157 lbs.
What this means is, my body doesn't tolerate the higher carbs in my diet. It doesn't do well with endurance training and it doesn't respond well to eating multiple times a day.
My typical approach before this training is:
Wake-up and workout at 5-6 am
Drink a preworkout or bullet proof coffee.
Intermittent fasting til 11-12 pm
Eat 2-3 meals/snacks between 12-8 pm.
I eat a lower carb/high fat diet 99% of the time because of known food sensitivities and intolerances to grains and dairy.
This week I will be returning to this diet protocol and lifestyle of eating for me. I have 3 weeks til my half marathon and I'm hoping to drop this extra weight before then for my knee and hip joint's sake.
Here's my grocery list for this week:
Bacon
Lettuce
Broccoli
Cauliflower
Feta cheese
Cucumbers
Vegan chocolate Shakeology
Peanut butter
Coconut milk, canned
Hamburger patties
Green tea
Butter
Coffee
Coconut oil
Walnuts
Avocados
Steamed green veggies of choice
Now to make this clear, this works for ME. Not everyone. It's taken years of experimenting to get to this point. I don't have a lot of weight to lose therefore this is more for leaning out than big weight loss.
My gals who completed our bikini Bootcamp the last 10 days and tracked their food and calories following more of a 40% carbs/30% fats/30% protein all lost 5-8 lbs and 7-11" overall. So that way of eating worked better for them.
It obviously didn't for me.
So there is no right plan everyone. But as one of my clients you earn the privilege of my meal plans weekly, accountability to follow them, my guidance to adjusting your nutrition to hit your personal goals, AND workouts as well.

Dear god you are a mess! You didn't lose weight because you ate too much. For being a "personal trainer" you sure suffer from an appalling amount of delusion. You should know that you can't outrun a bad diet. Yes, we see your eating out photos and salads with maple syrup. Do you not know what a calorie is? Carbs don't make you fat. Eating too much makes you fat. The calories you burn from running are negligible. And I love how you claim to not be ruled by the scale in one breath, then in the next sob about how much you weight. I feel so sorry for your "clients". Beach body coach indeed. So, sure... go back to doing whatever you feel is intermittent fasting. What you described above is not IF. Maybe you should do some research on that as well.
ReplyDeleteA lot can be misinterpreted by reading. It's too bad you feel this way. Thanks for the input. Anna
DeleteDon't listen to wonky up there....as a Dieitian I beleive we are not all going to succeed on the same diet, and that our bodies change depending on the type of training we are doing. I hope the diet change/return you want to make still fuels your run training and allows you to have a successful race! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteYes. I'm not sharing this as to what you should do, just that I'm experimenting with myself because it's intriguing to me. As a personal trainer I'm not trained to coach nutrition so I don't. This is my journey I'm sharing. And that's all. 💗Amanda
