5 minutes on elliptical after i get up
Breakfast: A small portion of oatmeal in water not milk. A multi-vitamin.
A can of soup and a can of tuna (or salmon), which make up to 3-4 snacks throughout the day.
A dinner of choice not to exceed 700-800 calories, with lots of veggies (love broccoli). Also make sure fat calories stay below 20-30%
Some diet jello at night to supress desert cravings. Vitamin C + Asprin before bed.
thats it.
I have a huge apetite, and i dont starve myself at all with this. Eating at least 5-6 times a day in small portions is one of the key elements. Also the 40/40/20 (carb/protein/fat calories) rule to keep yourself on a healthy balance. Vitamins are very necessary as you cut your food intake. Getting up your heart rate in the morning, even if it is for 5 minutes, will help you burn more calories during the day.
This is the early stages of my diet. Later I will get more into weight lifting, and of course swimming as soon as my pool is done.
