Hello :0) My name is Christy. I'm currently deployed to Iraq so my nutrional sources are limited. So here it goes.........
I currently work-out @ 0300 which I start with weight training (Body Sculpting Bible Routine for Women-Giant Sets) for 75 minutes followed by 45 minutes of Cardio (Treadmill, Eliptical, Stair Master)
Before my Workout: 2 cups of Black Coffee sweetened with Splenda
Breakfast: 1 cup Oatmeal with Natural Almonds (1 oz) or Grits
Scrambled Eggs or Omelet with Vegetables topped with Jalapeno
Peppers & salsa
Liter of Water
Snack: Labada for Her Protein Shake & Liter of Water
Lunch: Huge Salad (lettuce, peppers, carrots, tomatoes)
Fat Free Italian Dressing
Tuna (6 oz) or Chicken Breast or Salmon
Liter Of Water
Snack: Labada for Her Shake & Liter of Water
Dinner: Same as Lunch
Snack: Southbeach Diet Bar (140 Cals-10g Protein)

I don't have any problems taking in my supply of water when it's 120 degrees here. My goal is to reduce my BF to 10%. I'm currently @ 12.9%. Since I'm trying to reduce my BF I'm avoiding milk & fruit. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks :0)

Looks good to me, but I'm new to all this.
There are some great folks here who know leagues more than me about diet, so I'll let them make suggestions. Just wanted to thank you for your service!

I wish I could get all my clients to eat as well as you.
You are making excellent choices and you should be able to achieve all of your goals using this diet.
The only thing that I would change if any change would in fact be needed would be your late night snack. Instead of the bar I would rather see you having a casein shake with maybe a scoop of peanut butter for extra protein to keep your body going throughout the night and not having it devour anything but what it is supposed to.
The only reason I say this is I am not a big fan of the bars as many of them have just too much sugar or corn syrup etc.
I expect to see you succeed because you seem to be highly motivated, have adopted the best eating plan and have a goal that you are driven to achieve.
By the way? God bless and keep your head down.

Your diet is pretty good. Don't be afraid of fruits or milk. At 100+ degrees you have to keep a variation of everything. Not only is the heat going to eat your nutrients away, but your workouts are too.

Are you having any problems with your workouts/energy levels that are bothering you or is everything going well right now?
