I started thinking about this About Me part of my blog. I'm going to expand it just a little from the 3 words I had before.
I am a single mom. I love my son. We have been alone since he was 6 months old. He really is my sun, moon, and stars. I am very proud of him.
I am an entrepreneur. I started my driving business 2 years ago. I don't want to work for a "boss" ever again. I always tell people they can do it too. In what I do, there is no competition because there are plenty of people that need rides (and maybe that would help get some of these bad drivers off the roads!). I work hard and have fun on my own time doing what I like to do.
I really am a Netflix addict. When I am not working or doing something with my son, I am watching Netflix. There are so many shows that I've never re-watched anything either. I will watch anything and make my own opinion.
I am opinionated. This blog is really just my opinions and my life. People don't have to agree with me all the time. I welcome discussions and other people's opinion whether they agree or not. I'm not petty, I'm not going to block anyone for not sharing my opinion, why do people freak out these days when someone doesn't share their opinion? Who cares?!? There is a reason we all are different.
There's a lot more about me but you'll have to read the blog to find out!

According to what we were taught 100 yrs ago (kidding! – it’s been only half that ๐) In a physical fitness class at the Nursing home where I worked, your burned calories in an exercise program is what makes you lose weight. For example, you take in 1500 calories a day for the body’s maintenance. You burn 500 calories. That means you have a consumption value of 1,000 calories, meaning you will lose 500 calories worth of weight. (Sorry, I forget what that worked out to in pounds lost.) Within this concept, if you ate the extra calories you have worked off by exercising, you would not lose weight and could possibly even gain weight instead, due to the muscle weight gained as you build muscle tissue. I hope you find this helpful! I am so proud of you for your wonderful persistence and dedication, Julie! My HEART is with you every step of the way! ๐๐ค๐

If you have more muscle, they will hold the fat better. That’s why when you do ab work you will look a little thinner, your muscles are doing a better job of holding fat up where it should be.

After working out, your body does need protein to repair the muscle after you stress it with exercise. If a person is sacrificing muscle as they lose fat by dieting too much, I don’t think they are getting healthier, just smaller. So I do think if you accepted another 400 calories eating meat or eggs or whatever you’d still have a calorie deficit for losing fat but would be better off for keeping the muscle. And muscles burn calories even when at rest.

I ate peanut butter which is fat and protein on that bread which has protein so it wasnโt too bad. Thanks again!

Great advice. Thereโs plenty of protein in other foods, it doesnโt have to be from animals…. just google vegan body builder to see what I mean ๐

I donโt eat back the calories I burn while exercising. If you feel lightheaded or weak you may need to up your food intake as you start burning more calories naturally.

I guess it depends on your goals. Also calories are not all the same. Getting 100 calories from chocolate would be process differently than 100 calories form vegetables, so calorie counting isnโt the be all and end all
