Suggestions please...
Hi All,
Please could someone help, I'm soooo frustrated!
I've been running for years and have recently also started to use a Power Plate. My problem is that the tops of my legs are HUGE..but not fat, they're quite solid muscle. The rest of me is slim. I weigh 120lbs, and desperately want to get down to 110 (which I was last year).
I run every morning before breakfast, and try to do 6 miles which takes approx. an hour (I don't do an incline).
I then run in the evening, and alternate between running/power walking on an incline, again for 5 to 6 miles.
I also do Power Plate workouts every other day.
An average menu is:-
Breakfast- Either greek yoghurt or omelette (made with 1 egg and 6 egg whites), and a few brazil or pecan nuts.
Lunch - Small tin of tuna in olive oil and a boiled egg.
Dinner - Small portion of chicken, or turkey, or tuna with lots of either green veggies or LOTS of salad (i.e. a whole lettuce/raw spinach etc etc), mushrooms etc. with a low fat salad dressing.
Snacks - nuts
Drinks - 2 litres of water with cranberry, 2 decaff coffee.
Can anyone help please? I'm desperate to shift these extra few pounds, as I can't get into my size 6 (UK) clothes!
Thanks so very much,
x
