Chick's Diet and Training Thread

Hi everyone,

I am in desperate need of some advise please. I'm sick and tired of being fat and tired all the time.

Lost about 15kg during the past 10 months, and have been able to keep it off. I've been a big girl all my life, struggling with my weight as I'm a foodie and always trying out new recipes. Food has always been yummy for me. So long story short, my mom passed away in 2012, my weight ballooned to an embarrassing 94kg. Then the hubby and I decided on a wedding date, got my fat ass up and started exercising again (as you know, all brides want to look beautiful on their wedding day). So I got myself the Insanity Workout DVD, puked after the first 20min, but kept it up and lost some weight while toning at the same time.

Then came our wedding day in Oct, was still not happy with my weight but decided that my weight should not be a problem, at least not for one day. Had the most amazing day, if I could, I would have it all over again. Then came the wedding photos... what a shock to my system!!! :ohmy: I felt ashamed of myself. Felt embarrassed. Felt horribly sad and angry at myself. So now I've decided that I won't live like this for the rest of my life. I am not going to be trapped in this body. I am struggling to get rid of the last bit of muffin tuff and love handles and will start using Clenbuterol on Monday.

Any suggestions on a cardio & toning exercise and eating plan while using Clen that anyone would be willing to share with me? I don't really want to build more muscle, so I'm scared to continue with the Insanity Workout programme.

Any help or advise would really be appreciated.

Thank you.

Toodles.

Welcome to the forum! Noone is going to spoon feed you a diet, but we are willing to guide you and help you as much as we can. You need to work out a diet for yourself and DO NOT go on fat burners until both your diet and training is spot on. To start, go to the diet and contest preparation section, and read the stickies on how to create your own diet. Should you have any questions we help you gladly, but we will not spoonfeed you anything. Happy hunting soldier!

Jup I agree! Get the basics down first! Get used to dieting. And dont see it as DIETING, see it more as a change of lifestyle. A healthier lifestyle. For my the word diet has always been associated with contest prep, or trying to reach a certain goal whether loosing or gaining weight. I believe that if you want to loose weight and look good for yourself, it should be a lifestyle and not just a 3 months diet and training program! So id suggest putting the clen away for now. Eat good clean food. Try to minimize your carbs in the afternoons. Drink Lots of water. Do Weight training and cardio. Both are essential! Get yourself a whey protein to help with recovery and to feed your muscles. Just a few tips ive learned over the years. Enjoy!

agree what the guys said on the nutrition planning side. allot of reading to do here for you. Good thing is, once you build this knowledge its a eye opener and you can achieve your golas your own way, not having to ask someone to build you a nutrition plan, once you have this knowledge you have the power to do this yourself.

On the cardio front, I would suggest you read this
