Although, I don't want to be in the fainting statistics. As far as the eating, it's mostly fresh and whole foods. It's about eating tons of vegetables and fruits and then meat and less carbs. The carbs that you do eat should be whole and complex - like brown rice. I went to the grocery store and bought a bunch of veggies and fruit and cut them up and then they are there for snacking on. Nuts, cheese, and low sugar yogurts are ok too. So really there isn't much to prepare and lots you can do that is fast and easy. Fruit smoothies are a good meal as well. I don't count calories, just eat the right kinds of food. Here's a website that my trainer suggested I look at for recipes that are quick and easy. http://www.marksdailyapple.com/ I will keep you posted! Let me know how it goes for you. Probably not!

That's interesting about the apple before work-out. I generally work out on an empty stomach because frankly, I just don't eat that much. If I did, I would gain. As it is, I am barely maintaining at a weight it took forever to get to, and I really want to lose 15 lbs. more. What is this eating plan you are on? I always get frustrated when I look up those plans to lose weight because: 1) I do not have the time to prepare, much less eat all that food; 2) it is totally impractical for my lifestyle probably because of #1 above. Anyway, good luck and if you have any tips you can throw my way I'd appreciate it!
