TweetHey yall, I was moving a little slower today than usual but that's alright with me. My meal plan got changed a little yesterday and my Friday night Zumba class has been canceled completely so I had to do a butt and ab blast. I'm still trying to get a handle on this diet thing. It would be easier if I could just copy guns but I still have to feed Rake something that looks and tastes good at least once or twice a day.

I wanted to pull the Mustang out and give it a wash but since Rake wants to take sweet1 out this afternoon that's saved for tomorrow.

Tweeti will break down your cal count there trix and it is pretty low:
protein is looking about 426 cal ish
carbs is looking about 164ish
fat is looking about 567ish
thats a total of 1157. that with you training hard is a touch on the really low side. i would say that just going off a macro style dieting approach you should be aiming for around 1800-2200ish cals a day. now if you want to eat like i do and not screw rake's eating up then use the number breakdown that i gave you and just adapt it to the various meals and foods that you are eating and it can work. also since you guys like to go out and have a little cheat here and there. so you can plan that around you second low carb day just prior to your zero days. that's kind of along the same lines i use with my wife and other people that arent getting ready to compete. we just want to drop a little bf and gain or hold muscle

Well Well Well, this is a lot harder than I thought. I knew I was at the low end of the macros you gave me and figured I could just work at eating more food. That may be the plan after I have a chance to think about it. I am really screwed this week though, we just found out we are going on a business trip. Fly more than half way across the nation then drive back home. It's looking like a 3 day trip and I have to make a plan for meals and work outs. At least Rake's 'no no' just got here a couple minutes ago he's happy. He wanted that thing for Father's Day last year and I told him no way it will work. Then teased him for months about it.

I know you didn't mean a TOUCH. So sweet! you really meant half of what I should eat. I feel like crying. Just going to wait til we see you and you have a chance to talk to Rake. I'll try harder and get this ironed out eventually. Well I have a date with a very Hot and Sexy sweet1, got to get ready.

i know you guys have hectic work sched and balancing trying to eat and train around everything else is a huge pain in the ass esp when you are trying to get in as much whole food as possible. then on top of that not starving rake and the family as well haha. it is no big deal just like having a small cheat on occasion to dip down a bit lower on cals and macros. you just dont want to do it back to back or more than once or twice a week. this is a learning process and you are getting it down and eventually we will get you where you are confortable with the eating training and everything else all tailored to you and your lifestyle.
dont stress the travel either. if you have to eat out or what have you just go with the cal breakdown and macros as close as you possibly can and you will still be good to go.

TweetSo embarrassed and that hard to do.

TweetAs you can see, I am having a lot of fun today.

Thank you very much Mountain-Man. I was crying when guns told me about calories yesterday. Had to go load up on chicken breast. I really want to do this right. Rake thinks I am eating too much, time will tell. Thanks for the picture, that was my sweet treat for the day. Pictures of my guys.

hey now their is no point in getting upset about it. you are still learning the process as well as your body and how it handles foods. what i want you to keep in mind is for a normal healthy sedimentary person it takes 2k cals a day for them to maintain themselves. that is no gain and no loss and they dont do a single thing at all. now you are an active person that trains hard works hard and takes care of your family. so that means you burn quite a few cals off the bat. so what i am trying to get you to balance is enough protein fat and carbs as well as cals to maintain your muscle healthily while letting you strip away fat. so when you drop those cals way to low and then you burn off a bunch ontop of barely taking any end that puts your body into starvation mode. this in turn turns off your fat burning process and your body starts to burn off its muscle. that's just how we are wired and their is no way to prevent it other than tricking it into doing what we want it to do. that's all i was trying to point out because i would rather see you up closer to 1800 to 2k cals a day so if you burn 500 that gives you 1500 to maintain your muscle

I realize that; I was abnormally sensitive yesterday after hearing about that trip and losing my friend. Definitely I'm hardly ever like that and my diet was better today but it will take me awhile longer to get through all that chicken. Thanks a million for caring.
