Don't Hate Your Trainer


www.sparkpeople.com/mypage.asp?id=KAREN7360
My Trainer Karen Finch is 56 years old & HAWT!

I'm not hating my trainer, its just like getting a spanking you don't like it but you probably need it right? You know when you have been bad or done wrong and MUST pay. (Do you think she got this body eating junk, NOT!)

Done wrong = FAT!!!

It has been proven you get 30% better results working with a trainer, even all the greats have trainers.

I have been blasting the workouts but have not had as "clean of a diet" as I need to have right now, so its back to the drawing board. My trainer said I have got to lower my calories to reach the goal, and just when I was loving my salads.

Why?

I have been putting sunflower seeds, or walnuts, raisins, apples or strawberries, and all that is going to have to change to more protein less carbs. It's not that I won't be able to have wonderful salads, I just have to change what I am putting in them. (Sniff, sniff).

No more banana smoothies.....they have to go too! (Sniff, sniff).

2 bad things for me, bananas and corn. Well for now anyway they are just too high on the carb list for this carbaholic. Sad, just sad but the sacrifice will be so worth it.

When I get to prance around in my swimsuit on the beach, all the sacrifice which really is not a sacrifice its just looking at food different will be the pay off.

Eat clean = NO FAT!!!

Now just in case your wondering, I have done really well with sugar. The only sweet thing I have had besides fruit has been toffee peanuts, and guess what?

THEY GOT TO GO! (Sniff, sniff)

So I got my spanking and I am back on my feet ready to go to work again on my new eating plan.

  1. Hey girl...its o.k....unfortunately for ALL of us to lose the body fat percentages to go downward we need to carb cycle and cut some of our favorites completely out for awhile! Have you heard of the Miracle Noodle? Or Shirataki noodles? Get the feeling of pasta without the carbs!

    YOU are always accountable chica and that in itself is a GREAT daily accomplishment! :)

  2. I am sick now...that trainer is 56 years old...omw what an inspiration...
    I have decided to have a body like that is possible with hard work, but not easy to maintain...
    after my stint in the hospital I have decided as long as I am healthy and slim..not the lowest body fat percentage I will be happy...
    I do admire anyone who works out to have a body like that...I really do as I know it is something that takes so much work...

    show us a photo of you now....

  3. I eat carbs, fats and proteins with each meal but make good healthy choices when doing so. The one carb I avoid is processed sugar carbs. I hope you do great with your new workout plan and reaching your inner hawtness.
