lucysmommys calorie counting diary

[lucysmommy]

hey

thought i would start my own diary

I have been calorie counting (1280) and exercising about 5/6 times a week.

so far i have lost 17lbs, 5inches off my wait and 2 inches off my bust but my hips are the same - not sure why though lol

any hooo i have been trying clean eating as much as possible and not eating very much processed food/

i should add a bit about myself - i am 27 (nearly 28), i have a daughter who is 4, i am in year 3 of my nursing degree and i work part time also.

What's carb cycling?

You're doing great so far, you're eating healthily and you're exercising.. I always feel jealous of you as your diet seems a lot more like a life change than mine! (I am very..still..)
I hope you're feeling more optimistic soon..

You Eat high carb one day and then low carb next day

So on low carb days you eat 1200 cals and only small amount of carbs at breakfast and the rest of the day you eat lean protein and veg

On the high carb days you eat 1500 cals and you can have carbs with every meal - about a clenched fist size.

Even though I have been off it - I havent went crazy at all - but I have been out for dinner 2 times this weekend but I wouldn't normally be out this much lol xx
