    @shoranani, I find these are good snacks that are also filling:
    1) hard boiled egg- 75 calories
    2) chip dip carrots & 2 tbsp. Hummus -about 100 cal.
    3) 2% cottage cheese 16oz & fruit (my favorite blackberries) 100 cal
    4) air-popped popcorn 3 cups 100 cal.

    @clprieur When I did WW back in 2008-9, I would have a granola bar (abt 100 cal and higher in carbs) before I headed to the gym, do my workout and then drink my WW chocolate shake mixed with 2 cups of milk. It satisfied the milk “requirement” and was high in protein. The idea came from a workout group on WW forums, at the time. Carbs before and protein after. It worked very well for me.

    Oooh, cottage cheese and fruit! Only ever had it with pineapple, never thought of adding my own and I'm going to try it! Banana I think will be very filling.

    My favorite cottage cheese is pre-made up north (nothing good in Florida IMO) is cucumber and dill. I really need to work on replicating it using the plain cottage cheese, so I can have it where ever I am. It is also really hard to find as not many stores sell it.

    Round 221
    trainer. HOLY COW! ... cost of $760 a month for 3 hrs a week.

    That's INSANITY!
    You can purchase an entire gym with just 2 months of that.

    That's what we did during covid.
    I couldn't jeopardize my high-risk husband, so we bought a small set of gym stuff for home:
    - cage rack
    - 1 set of weights, plus lots of dumbbells
    - treadmill, Nordic stepper, heavy bag.

    I used to love working out at the gym,
    because home stuff would distract me:
    - do a load of laundry
    - take out stuff from freezer to defrost for dinner
    - walk the dog, etc.

    But now (since February), I'm liking just walking down the stairs, do my work-out, and be done, without having to leave the warmth of my home.

    We actually have a nice set up at home but for whatever reason, I’m more disciplined at the gym. I don’t stick to finishing my workout when I’m home. But yeah, I was like uhhh that’s way too much for me to spend.
