ok...ANOTHER Update; now been working out 6x a week for almost 12 weeks; I've lost a few inches (2-3) and only 4 lbs. Been doing phase 1 SBD...but I do cheat (w/a bite here and there)...but am I DESTINED to never let a bite of a cookie or 1/2 of a roll pass my lips again??
I KNOW low carb is a way of eating/way of life, but am I ONLY allowed to ever have veggie-carbs for the rest of my life? I did up my meds (myself...felt guilty...but) to 2 grains amour + 50ug synthroid... no heart palpitations...not sure if I should up it 1/2 grain more. The issue is when I get tested by Dr....she thinks I"m only taking 1 1/2grain....
Is there anyone who's having more luck than I? I'm doing less cardio than I was, now lifting more, here's how I work out generally:
typically per day:
cardio 20-30,min, either running on treadmill, elliptical, or the kick a$$ stairclimber machine
weightsusually 3 sets of 12 each, doing 2-3 different exercises/body part), I"ll do chest, back, biceps,triceps one day legs (smith, reclined press, ab/adductor, squats) another day, and other days ab machines!!
I do take a cardio class usually 1-2x per week, and I play tennis (drills for 2 hrs on mondays, matches some Saturdays)
ANY advice is appreciated!!!!
