Hi, I'm new here! I'm 23 and my height is 5'6 and I weigh around 130! I exercise everyday! I do The Firm for two days, and then one day I do Pilates and yoga! I exercise inleast 45-60 minutes a day! I'm wanting to get a thin firm toned body, not bulky muscles!
I have to help keep up the house and help take care of my grandma (she's blind), my parents are to busy during the day, so I do all that everyday too! It's a two story house and did I say how many dogs we have? We have 4dogs and 1 cat so I take care of them too! I quess it's good I love dogs huh!
I'm just explaining this because I do some of that (laundry,cleaning upstairs/downstairs,grandma,dogs,cat,meals) on top of exercising everyday!
I just want to give you all an idea how much calories I might be burning!
I used to be a raw foodest, I did nothing but gain water weight! I noticed since I went back vegetarian I already lost about 2 inches on my stomach! Can you believe too much raw veggies and fruit can do that! I also noticed I just couldn't get were I could eat enough calories and if there's not enough calories, then there really isn't enough protein! So could some give me an idea of how much calories and protein I should have everyday?
Also can some give me a daily idea on what a vegetarian could eat? Like what would be good carbs and good proteins for loosing weight and toning the body (not big muscles! Just toned!)
Thanks, sorry so long! Just wanted to make sure I gave you every detail you needed!
Have a great day!
