Your body has two types of fat: white fat and brown fat White is the bad stuff, used mostly to store energy (which is great, unless you've got too much of it flopping around). Michael Phelps, the most decorated Olympian in history once said I think goals should never be easy, they should force you to work, even if they are uncomfortable at the time". When maintaining a stringent low-fat, high fibrous vegetarian diet plan becomes difficult along with your swimming routine and you feel Too much! Can't follow anymore!" remember the saying of this great Olympian and get going. In the long run, you will surely see the healthy diet mantra working for your body and the end result will be an active, swim fit, healthy body.".
Very low levels of thyroid hormone usually indicate an autoimmune reaction to the thyroid gland itself. This means you'll have to take thyroid hormone supplements orally, usually the stable form T4 (Levaxin), which your doctor can prescribe for you. Your body will transform this into the active T3 hormone when necessary. The supplement dose should be adjusted so that you reach normal hormone levels (TSH, T3, T4) and sufficiently alleviate symptoms - though a few people feel best when keeping TSH slightly below normal.
Additionally, focus on how much protein you are getting each day. Every meal should have 20-30 grams of protein distributed throughout the day," says Larson. This helps keep lean muscle mass intact because when we lose weight, we can also lose muscle along with fat." Preserving and maintaining muscle mass is important because it keeps your metabolism roaring while you are dropping calories. Focus on lean, pasture-raised meats, which are lower in saturated fat and calories, like turkey and chicken breast, pork loin, sirloin cuts of beef, and venison or bison. Also, don't forget to get in wild-caught fish and seafood once or twice a week—salmon, tuna, cod, shrimp, mussels—for a dose of healthy omega 3s and clean protein.

First of all, I don't recommend making any changes until you've done two full rounds of the program. This allows your body time to adjust to the workouts and to give your metabolism a reset. Often women come into this program after trying diet after diet, many of which are low in calories. If you've been operating from a dieting mindset that fewer calories is the way to lose weight, it's likely that your metabolism is sluggish and confused. Our bodies operate efficiently when they get the calories they need.
