[quote="Blond.Bee"][quote="baldy"]Any feedback from them? Whenever I read your log I always wonder about the carbs!

[quote="hardcore iv"]
1300 cal at your bodyweight is extremely low. The basal metabolic rate for a 70 kg woman should be roughly about 1500 calories. Add in 2 hours of cardio a day and you are basically turning your body into a fat storing/muscle depleting machine by being in an extremely negative calorie balance. Being sick and lack of sleep wouldn't be helping either.

I think Amanda (username Epona) posts on the QLD vegetarian & vegan society forum if you want to get an idea of her dietician style

Have you ever been tested for gluten intolerance? That could be an issue if quinoa and brown rice don't seem to give you problems and other carbs do.

interesting read lately Bee

One thing to remember with weight loss is that if it has taken you your lifetime to put on the weight, it will be a long term project to lose it. Unfortunately so many of these marketed quick schemes rely on temporary weight loss like water weight, and lie to their customers about the benefits, and that has created the atmosphere where results need to show fast. But slow and long is the way to go

Stay strong!

I think the relaxation in yoga is helping me get some rest.. wouldn't call it good sleep, but its deeper relaxation than before with a few hours of sleep somewhere in there.

That sounds good, we should totally invent that!
It's a soy pasta... like twirls, I don't know why they went with soyaroni it doesn't look like macaroni.. I guess soy pasta twirls wasn't catchy enough
I'm a masochist.. pasta hurts, why did I feel the need to try the soy pasta? who knows- but it tastes damn good! (for anyone in australia, it's a san remo product)
