Popeye Flies
How can I lose weight with my knee in an immobilizing brace?
My husband and I are flying to Florida in two months (during swimming suit season) with his parents and we have made it our plan to lose 10 lbs. to be at our goal weight by then. My husband and I have been jogging, riding our bikes, or hiking everyday to lose the weight.
However, I was in a serious car accident last week that resulted in tearing the ACL and PCL ligaments in my right knee. The doctors have put it in an immobilizing brace to keep me from being able to bend my right knee and I have an appointment with a surgeon in a couple days. My knee will heal and be fine for me to go to Florida, but I would still like to feel comfortable in my swimming suit. I have a gym membership and could still workout my upper body with weights, but I don't think that would burn near enough calories to lose the weight by the time we leave w/o making me look like Popeye (not a good look for women).
Any suggestions? All would be appreciated!
mainly your going to have to rely on a great diet, if your knee can take it, try picking up boxing, beat the hell out of a bag with your fists for 30minutes and you will sweat a ton!
here's a great diet
8am - 6 egg whites, 2 yokes and 1 fruit
10:30am - 1.5 scoops of protein in 16 oz of water and 1 fat
1pm - 4-6 oz. of red meat 92% or higher 2 cups of green vegetable)
3:30pm - 1.5 scoops of protein in 16 oz of water and 1 fat
6pm - 4-6oz. of red meat OR turkey breast, chicken, or fish and 2 cups of green vegetable
8:30pm - Some kind of lean protein again (Chicken, turkey breast, tuna, egg whites, or another protein shake. No red meat.) Also another serving of good fats. If you want to add a 7th meal in 2.5 hours you can have another protein shake.
and when i say fat, i mean add a good fat, like "flax oil", almonds, almond butter, or fish oil. does not mean ice cream, i PROMISE you that this works, ive spent years of trial and error if you want more detail just ask, please notice that i am not trying to sell you anything or defering you to some bullshit website to buy pills or products like half of the answers out there, spammers.
do cardio on MWF in the morning on an empty stomach (a secret of the pros, take 200-400mg of caffeine tablets 30min before workout you will have an insane cardio session, i use "vivran" but may not be availble to you where you are), for 50-60mintues, your choice just keep the heart rate up. you will freak the hell out at how much you tighten up in 4 weeks. you don't need to do any more cardio than this, it will work great.
