Hi, I am very excited to see the Ms. Fitness forum. I purchase the magazine all the time, and having a forum will even be more motivating. Thank you in advance for asking what users would like to see on the forum. I would like to see information regarding different types of cardio workouts.

i too would like to see discussions about what works for people - both fitness and healthwise - to see results. also, i think it would be great to talk about how people incorporate diet and training into regular lifestyles...for instance, how to be healthminded and still enjoy a social life.

Here is a Sample of my 1 of the pre-contest meal plan's I use but I do variate it according to my energy levels and my body fat composition
LUCK IS WHERE PREPARATION MEETS PERSERVERANCE
. Setting yourself & your weight loss / body composition transformation as a priority so you will be able to able to reach your goals!!!! Just Remember To Do This You Need to Stay Focused Make the Commitment To Yourself. No more self-defeating strategy this can only be Win! Win!
*Morning cardio 20 minute run Before eating (Burns fat as fuel)
Meal 1 6a.m. 1 8 ounce glasses of water w/ lemon 1-cup oatmeal 1 whole egg w/ 5egg whites 2 ounces of chicken breast 1 piece of fruit: Ruby red grapefruit, pineapple, and apple (Aids in digestion & fat burning also quick energy (Or instead of eggs & chicken for your protein if you’re in a big hurry throw some flavored protein powder in your oatmeal)
Meal 2 9a.m. Protein Shake
Meal 3 12p.m. 1 8 ounce glasses of water w/ lemon 8-10oz. of lean meat: chicken, turkey, or lean red meat 2 cup of steamed vegetables or 1/&1/2 cup of raw vegetables W/ 2 TBS low cal dressing 6oz sweet potato or 1 cup brown rice
* 6 small meals will keep your metabolism reved up & burning just like putting logs on a fire! Meal 4 3p.m. Protein Shake w frozen strawberries or a banana
Meal 5 6p.m. 8-10oz. Of lean meat: chicken, turkey, or lean red meat Romaine Lettuce Salad w/ mixed veggies & ½ cup green beans (No sodium use Mrs. Dash)/ Or 2 cups steamed or raw vegetables
9.m. If you’re still hungry you may have a protein shake or 6 oz chicken breast & 1 cup vegetables If craving carbohydrates you may have ½ a sweet potato
* Cardio on an empty stomach will help utilize & burn fat storage as a primary fuel!
If you are not eliminating properly add more fibrous carbs to your diet. Make sure you drink plenty of water with this to clean out the toxins in your body & so the fiber will work properly.
Make sure you eat your fruit & raw veggies this will help with digestion & elimination. You can have 1free day a week if you tend to go to over board make it 1 meal!
For quicker recovery from intense exercise Try 1 tsp of glutamine and 2 ms. Fitness anti oxidants, & 2 Ms Fitness EFA's at preferabally bedtime
The Order of meals is not as important as the content of the meals. If you would like to switch the order of meal #1 and meal #4 no problem Make sure your beverages are non-caloric – Crystal Light, Diet Sodas, coffee, tea are all-okay.
