Where is my Poop!

As the title of this post states, today I will write about Poopie.

Oh come on everyone has bowel movements and has to go to the bathroom. The question is are you going as often as you should? Being constipated is not fun, is a serious problem and can lead to medical problems. Having 2-3 bowel movements a day is considered normal. So consider your bowel movements and keep reading.

 You see going to the bathroom regularly is imperative to your digestive system health.

The type of foods you want to remove or minimize:
Caffeine
Refine foods which are low fiber and very little nutrients which tends to stay still there.
Alcohol
Processed foods
Meats & Animal Products

Foods you want to stick to:
Fiber Foods
Whole Wheat
Fruits and Vegetables
Lots of Water which helps flush things through .
Omega3 which you find in fish oil.

Working out helps because activities stimulates movement.

MOST IMPORTANTLY: If you have to go, then GO!

I said no meat dammit!

Yes you heard me correctly.
I am denying meat, sticking to fruits and veggies and of course whole grain foods.

I can stick to it, Yes I can!

Eating too much meat is bad for you because of all the fat meat has, which builds up your cholesterol. As a vegetarian you have more energy then someone who eats meat because you don’t eat foods that have fat. People who substitute fruits and vegetables for meat get more nutrients then people who don’t. They also get more fiber.

I Guess this means I am sorta-kinda becoming a vegetarian-ish.

2OO8 to Now 2O1O

In two thousand and eight is when I started my whole self improvement phase, it is then where I started at 123lbs and 40% body fat. Those numbers and getting them lower were the sole purpose as to why my fitness lifestyle changed. 

In January 2OO8, I met a new friend named Joey who happened to be a personal trainer with Porky's gym. From the moment I entered the gym that day everything changed. With great effort my eating habits changed, I became more knowledgeable as to what I put into my body and I became stronger I saw results, lost a bit of weight and then I had to leave my trainer because paying $480 a month was just not cutting it anymore so after 3 months with my trainer, in April I said goodbye and kept it up on my own.

A few months later, 8 months later to be exact, January 2OO9 I got my body fat and measurements done again at Porky's with a really nice trainer guy named Laz. I was at 116-117 lbs and my body fat was down to 26%. That's a lot better than I expected! I stayed at Porky's gym for about 3 more months and again I changed in April I decided to cut my hair up to my neck and become a member of a new gym 24 Hour Fitness. I was at it again but this time I had a goal in mind. My goal was to be 110lbs by December of 2OO9. I think I worked out a little to much and watched what I ate just right because I achieved that goal by August of  O9. All my job was to do is maintain.

January 2O1O arrived and I was still going to the gym still eating correctly. In March I had to slow down a little bit since I got a job and a boyfriend all in the same week, how would I juggle all these things and the gym especially since during my unemployment I would go at the perfect time. So now I had to go through rush hour and be in the gym during the busiest time of the day. So I took it easy yet I worked out on my own and with my boyfriend making up exercises.

Now June 2O1O I am still down to 110lbs and my body fat is at 19%, Trust me, I couldn't believe it either I had gone from 40% to 26% to 19%...

So my new body goal, especially since I want to do some fitness modeling as a hobby, is 108 lbs and 16% body fat. I hope to be there by the end of the summer. Piece of cake! wait... I cant have that. ;)
