1st Week of WLC Program Completed

Hi Josh,

I have 2 things, first I made a mistake and hit the remove me from newsletter site. And I also need a suggestion after I get done workout at 7am I have my post-drink, now 1hour later I need to have my first meal, your suggestion on that meal would be appreciated because I was never a breakfast person till now I guess.

My first week went good, I lost 3lbs I still haven't settled in to proper eating habits so I don't know how to determine the loss fat/muscle. But i'm starting to get the idea. I have not yet purchased any spplements yet, I know they are my last concern right now.

Thanks,
Lee

Hey Lee!

To make sure you are subsribed to the Newsletter, just fill out the form in the upper right corner there. See it? The one that says 'get access to all our secrets with a FREE membership.' If you have trouble, please let me know.

Do you have a pre workout shake before your workout? I am assuming you mean a weight lifting workout and not a cardio workout, right?

Lee, are you focusing on building muscle or burning fat for this cycle?

For breakfast, I would have something like this:

3 Whole Eggs
2 slices of Whole Grain Gread
1 Apple

OR

3 Whole Eggs
1/2 Cup Oatmeal
1 Banana

Something similar to that will work great. You want a protein source, a natural starchy carb source, a piece of fruit, and good fats.

This morning I had:

2 whole eggs
2 slices whole grain bread
1 tsp organic grape jelly
2 scoops whey protein
2.5 cups skim milk (vat pastuerized and non homogenized)

So, I had about 860 calories for breakfast. I make breakfast and the meals around my workouts the biggest meals of the day. And I'm even focusing on fat loss right now.

But anything similar to that for breakfast will work great. Always make sure you have your pre workout shake prior to lifting weights.

You can measure your body weight and waist if you want to get a good idea if you are losing fat. Add in body fat calipers and you have everything you need. Calipers don't cost much... you can see them down the left side of the page there with the scale and body measure.

The WLC Program Guide shows you how to take the caliper measurements too.

Yes, do not worry much about supplements right now. You are exactly right... getting your eating habits and other things in order are mUCH more important.

You're doing great! Keep up the great work... If you are focusing on building muscle (which I believe you are), you need to raise the overall calories. Use your muscle building calorie levels to get an idea of what you need. Let me know if you need help with that.

Does that help you?
