I am 5'9 @ 170. Though not huge I am not comfortable with myself. Dh is 280+ so he is pretty big. I work out 4 days a week which vary from walks/runs, elliptical, p90 X cardio. Dh doesnt do to much, He went running/walking with me yesterday and was only able to make it a little so I guess he will have to build up.
I think I got the working out part down. I just need to push DH. As for eating.... I know fast food, fried food, candies, desserts are all bad. But to actually eat who knows if I am making the right choices. This was what we ate yesterday.
Bfast: cup of coffee with truvia, skinny fat free creamer. 1 bisket (which I usually dont have anything as coffee fills me up)
lunch: cup of homemade chicken noodle soup with LOTS of veggies in it.
Dinner: homemade enchiladas. Now I know these arnt the greatest but we are broke this next month so I am really having to stretch and use whats in the house. This is how I made them
Corn tortillas, tomatoes, green paper, onion, garlic, chicken, and no cheese in the ench only on top .
I drink lots of water and allow myself 1 diet drink a day usually diet root beer.
I just dont know how to figure out how much protein, carbs, ect we should have every day and how to go about figuring out how much is in each meal since I make alot from scratch.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Anyone also know how to get DH really motivated?
