What not to do if trying to lose weight!

Cutting calories and increasing my calorie burn didn't cause me to loss the weight. It actually caused me to gain weight. I ended up going down to Bodyworks and I talk to the guy at the nurtition shop. He told me I was making serious makes.

1. While running all of those long miles...I thought I was burning tons of calories. Wrong...I wasn't burning carbs, fat, but I was burning off my muscle.

2. I was starving my muscles.

3. I was overtraining and working out too much.

4. I wasn't eating enough protein.

5. I was only eating 1800 calories and I needed to actually eat close to 2500 calories.

So, I cut back on my workout routine. Now, I run three times a week and lift weight three times a week. I drink three protien shakes a day. I use a brand called Nector...it contains no carbs or sugar. I need to consume close to 200 grams of protein everyday. Plus, I had to increase my calorie intake.

The weight is coming off super fast. I'm hoping to be at 120 lbs by next week. I'm not even dieting or trying to loss the weight. It's coming off all on it's own.

We're going to Hawaii next to month to celebrate and I will be running in a half marathon in Honolulu called "Run Like a Diva". I can't wait.
