I run 4xs a week, but have scaled back the mileage to have energy for lifting. Normally I run 2.75-3 miles most days and then one day is my "long" run, which is only about 5 miles. I work FT, so my running is kicked off at 5:15 AM 3xs during the work week and then at a reasonable time on Saturday.
I do weights for a full hour Tuesdays/Fridays/Sundays. I do 4 sets of 3-4 exercises each. Usually 2 lower body/1 Arms/1 abs, so I'm spending 50% of my time on lower body, 25% on abs, and 25% on arms. I'm not the type of person who builds bulk, so I'm really lifting hard, basically until muscle failure. This has made running so much easier!! Again, since I work FT, I am in the gym by 545 on Tuesday/Friday and my DH does the kids school stuff. Sunday as a family we go to the gym together.
For the food, I'm eating no refined sugar (this includes no fruited yogurt and no sweet salad dressings) and no gluten. I do add sugar to my coffee and eat a square if 85% dark chocolate at night. For the gluten, I'm NOT doing any fake foods (such as gluten free pasta or breads) I'm sticking to whole foods and getting my carbs from beans and fruit and some rice (not much). I'm not cutting back on fat at all.
Just an example of today:
-Omelet for breakfast stuffed with Kale, bacon, and cheddar
-Lunch was salmon salad with celery, 1/2 Avocado, almonds, pistachios
-Dinner was lamb Vindaloo over white rice
-Morning 2.75mi run
lipo sound easier
