Question: Exercise and # of Shakes?

Postby SkinnyMama » October 4th, 2005, 10:03 pm

I looked around for the answer but didn't see it so I apologize if it's already been asked and answered.

First, I'm back again, I was here about a year ago but since then I was diagnosed with a herniated disc, had surgery, physical therapy and and 98% recovered, and am taking good care of my body. Now I exercise vigorously 3x's a week (personal training for 30 min 3x's a week and then cardio for another 30-40 and then 1-2 more days of cardio only 30-45 minutes). I'm on Day 2 to FINALLY get rid of this last baby fat (the baby is 2 :oops: ) and I'm doing well. But I'm feeling kinda woozy, I'm pretty sure I'm not getting enough "food." I'm doing 5 shakes and a small protein/veggie meal. Should I be increasing my number of shakes/supplements and if so, to what amount?

Thanks in advance!

Think about how much water you consume per day. You seem to be exercising vigorously and may need more than the standard 64 oz per day. From reading the forum I have learned that some people experience that woozy feeling from an improper fluid balance.

Hi Skinny! I work out quite a bit now that I am closer to goal. I didnt exercise much at all the first 5 months or so after starting this, and I have gradually been adding more activity into my life. I normally have 5 shakes a day and 1 lean and green, but on days when I am going on a long hike or a long bike ride I add an extra shake, well I have even been known to add a couple extra shakes, it works for me. Drink lots of water, that can make all the difference in how you feel. :D
