Also easy way to track your macros is yo download myfitnesspal. It's a free app on your phone. You can track all your food,cals and macros. It works very well.

Yup twice....on the average I drop 8-10 pounds...the trick is keeping the weight off. You have to ease back into your diet.

I also have started back doing cardio every day I work out ( 5 days a week ) in an effort to get more lean and vascular, I started doing 15 min on a elliptical machine ( gets my heart rate up higher then cycling or treadmill ) then went to 20 min, now up to 25 minutes before I work out as well,, gets the blood flowing and build a sweat, I really would rather be lifting then doing cardio as I don't like doing cardio but the benefits are worth the boredom lol

Basically take your body weight x1.5= a minimum amount of protein. I use low sodium pouches which have 17gms protein per pouch. By dividing that into the first number this will tell you how many cans/pouches. I usually eat around 18-20 a day. Divide into 6 meals and enjoy. Also alot of water. Tuna is all protein,no carbs. This will put you in ketosis and your body will use your body fat for energy.

My local Kroger sells tuna for $1 a pouch for the low sodium. So basically about 20.00 a day
Low gi carbs don't spike your blood sugar which in turn doesn't spike your insulin levels...they keep everything nice and steady and provided sustained energy rather than the peak and valleys of high gi carbs..
If you're a visual learner this will help..
A sharp increase in glucose in the blood triggers the pancreas to release a rush of the hormone insulin, which removes any excess glucose. Insulin removes the surplus glucose from the blood and lowers the speed at which the body burns fat. A large surge in insulin, caused by eating high-GI foods, will start reactions in the body that leave you feeling lethargic, hungry and craving more sugar.
Eating low-GI carbohydrate foods causes a steady rise in the level of glucose in the blood, which in turn leads to a small and gentle rise in insulin. Small increases in insulin keep you feeling full and energised for hours after eating and also encourage the body to burn fat.
But also, which many fail to mention, you should still keep your carbs to acceptable levels, even if they are low gi...
