RockOnJenn Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 Hello everyone! My name is Jennifer but you may call me Jenny or Jenn, whichever your little hearts desires. I am completely new to the whole paleo diet but have done research on it. It seems like the easiest diet for me to fellow. I've always had body imagine issues even and even more now. I had open heart surgery in November of 2012, which I had a complications causing me to retain 5 liters of fluids around my chest area...needless to say I blew up like a ballon and was unable to really lower my weight due to recovery for recovery from the surgery ( means laying around and not being active). I finally started working out few months ago and have lost 10 pounds thus far. My goal is to live a healthy lifestyle. My goal weight is 130-120. I am currently 171 , I work out 5 times a day, weight training and cardio/ high impact workouts and I started drinking a gallon of water a day, which helps a lot. I am here in opens to gain a support system since I don't get it at home, and of course some advice and tips from all you fellow paleo diets. I know one my problems will be diary , I enough cheese with tacos, omettlees , and burger....cutting out gains and beans may be easier for me, but we shall see... Okay, now I am just rambling! Have a great day!! Quote xoxo, Jenny Cheat Days: April 6th and June 7th. Goals: Weight 125/130 and be able to wear a sexy little dress on my birthday.Yes, I am a huge WWE nerd.

FalseAesop Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 Welcome to the Rebellion. Working out 5 times a day? That's quite a lot, what sort of things are you doing?

Basement Cat Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 Welcome to the rebellion, Jenn! Congratulations on the weight loss! I'm going to echo FalseAesop and ask you what you are doing during your workouts. 5 times a day seems overkill. How long does each workout last?

RockOnJenn Posted January 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 It really doesn't feel like a total over kill for me. I have a online personal trainer, and the lenght of the work outs vary. Monday- chest & biceps/ high impact workout. Tuesday- Cardio & Core. Wednesday- shoulders & legs. Thursday- off. Friday- back & triceps. Saturday- cardio / core. Sunday- off Quote xoxo, Jenny Cheat Days: April 6th and June 7th.

FalseAesop Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 Oh yeah, simple misunderstanding, I thought you meant working out five times in a single day every day. Yeah five times a week, is pretty typical around here. Sounds like you have a solid plan. Stick to it and I'm sure you'll have great success.

The grains are going to leave a big void to fill. I made the mistake of not eating enough. Fill up on those veggies and don't be afraid of adding fat to your diet.

Basement Cat Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 What kind of fats? Like fats from meats?That, but also from eggs, avocado, olive oil, coconut oil, etc. Check out the paleo section of the nutrition forum for help. You'll find all the information you need.
