Hello, I was wondering about the lack of veg too. Does it bloat you?

I have a tricky dilema, I am trying to shed another 3 stone( have lost 6 so far) but trying to build muscle too. I feel too saggy when my muscles aren't pumped! I know the skin takes time to adjust, and it does appear to get tighter each month. When I hit the cardio for an hour or 2 a day the weight drops off quickly, but then I lack the energy to do the weights, and visa versa!

Also my carbs tailor right down as the evening approaches, and I have none after 3.30pmish and I find that it keeps me awake! Even after eating masses of veg and egg whites, tuna what ever I can fill up on. Sometimes just a bite of cheese or bread, settles me down.

I know it is near on impossible to lose alot of weight and build muscle at the same time, perhaps I will have to periodise my training?? x
