Calorie Watching Lifestyle
This group is where you limit your calorie intake anywhere from 1,200 to 1,800 or beyond if needed. You are good at keeping track of calories. You can eat more of what you want, but are limiting calories. So, if you want that piece of cake, you can but just realize you will need to sacrifice something else during the day for that many calories!

Before with diets I’ve done a very low calorie and exercise and the weight fell off. I’m doing 1300 now with exercise and the weight isn’t moving…

I had the same problem the last time I joined a challenge (not Cowgirl Fit). Nutrition is such a science and I’m not a scientist, but using a nutrition tracker has helped me figure some things out. If you’re not using one, maybe it will help you also. I have been working out since the first of the year, but didn’t see any progress. I’m on day…[Read more]

I have been using a calorie counter. I actually had to start adjusting my caloric intake and changey workout routine too since my body is different now that I’m in my 30s lol. Having no thyroid doesn’t help but it’s coming off! And yessss I love it let’s do it!!

I would suggest increasing protein if you haven’t tried that.

Yes! I have been but I have developed this bad eating schedule…which is my fault and I need to fix. I haven’t been really eating most the day because I drink coffee and get busy…or I’ll just have a protein shake after lifting and won’t eat until dinner. All bad

It’s too hot for biking outside. I did a stationary bike, weights and treadmill today and will still get a swim in. I’m upping my workouts!

I bought a big container of unsalted cashews for snacks at Costco. It really give me the energy to get through an afternoon. I have a handful after my workout.

Day 2
Ok, so if you read the last blog I just wrote, 5:2 you will understand what I did today. I had a relaxing morning and didn’t eat breakfast until 11am. I will still eat my 1,300 calories but I will eat it in the 11am-7pm time frame. Remember, it is birthday week, so we are planning a little bit of high calories with take out again tonight. I…[Read more] -

There is a blog I want you to read that talks about the 5:2 Logic and the 16:8. It’s something I also do with the restricted calorie intake. It breaks it down in this blog post and really helps me on the weekend to not cheat…

Ok, tonight was kind of junk food, but not too bad. I ordered a bean and cheese burrito which did count for protein and then I had a free Dorito Taco. The total calories came to 520, but that still gave me 275 for a snack tonight. I will show you my snacks in the nex post!

For lunch I had a salad with chicken breast, boiled egg and light Ranch dressing. I also drank a lot of water. This week we are planning getting a few take out meals as it’s Birthday week for one of my kids. Yes, you heard right… we started birthday week a couple of years ago instead of just birthday and it’s been fun expanding it all out…[Read more]

I track what I eat and workout on my Fit Bit. If you do not have a smart watch, you can use the “My Fitness Pal” app. It’s free and I have used it and loved it! Tracking this will help you see how many calories you have burned and how many you have left for the day. It shows your macros and so much more. Well worth the minute it takes to log…[Read more]

Day 1
I was in a rush in the morning, so only had time for a quick Carnation Instant Breakfast. If I am working out in the morning, I will drink a protein shake instead. I try to average about 300 calories per meal, and then one or two snacks during the day. I didn’t eat as much this morning, so I can save the calories for…[Read more] -
