the worst part is the "non"****ing. i only drink coffee and coke zero. after reading what you guys said, i think i will start drinking more water during the day.
i do 3 day of "body pump' classes a week and 1-2 cardio days a week. i've tried to up the cardio days, but i get bored easy on that any hlep you can give would be used....

light cardio on your lifting days...heavy and non-lifting...also a a great habit to pick up is to walk around the block after meals...helps the digesting and your metabolism.

remember ...a good rule for counting carbs and fiber is...

for every gram of fiber you can subtract off the total carbs....
(if i was on low carbs diet....every gram of carb would be in fiber..
