Oh, and I'll do 15 miles this week. Did 4 today already. :drinker:
My favorite recipe is Pasta Carbonara!
Makes 2 servings:
4 oz Ronzoni Smart Taste Pasta
Kraft - 100% Parmesan Cheese, 30 g (6 tbsp)
Oscar Mayer - Bacon, 2 Skillet Cooked slices
2 cups frozen peas
2 oz Kraft - Fat Free Cream Cheese
1/3 cup skim milk (I've even used nonfat vanilla soy milk and it turned out just as good!)
1/4 tsp garlic powder
Cook pasta as directed on package. Meanwhile, cook bacon in large skillet until crisp. Remove bacon from skillet with slotted spoon, reserving 2 Tbsp. drippings in skillet. Drain bacon on paper towels.
Add remaining ingredients to reserved drippings; cook on low heat until cream cheese is melted and mixture is well blended and heated through.
Drain pasta; place in large bowl. Add cream cheese sauce and bacon; mix lightly.

I normally walk a mile per day... so that would have put me at 6 miles (Mon-Sat) so I am committing to double that (for a total of 12).... and we'll also be adding an extra mile somewhere during this week's daily challenges but I didn't count that one. Does this help at all?0 -

About to start my 50 squat kicks but they WILL be done!! already had 128 oz of water & will be under my cals... I usually walk 1.5 miles a day at work but i can bump it to 2 miles & try to get in at least 11 miles.
as crazy as this sounds too i dont really have a fav recipe but my fav meal i guess is
-Grilled Chicken; seasoned with Durkee Grill Creations St. Louis style chicken & rib rub (no calories but does have 125mg of sodium)
-Grilled Fresh Corn - Wrap in aluminum foil & grilled for 25 mins (doing quarter turns every 5 mins)
- i usually add a fresh fruit...
I know its crazy but im a SUPER picky eater & through most of my diet i've found grilled food, especially chicken has helped so this is my fav

*Squats

I am committing to 12 miles walked this week for our team! I am going to try to push for 15 though! We shall see! I started walking on my lunch (starting today) and may even walk to work. It's a mile away.....Just don't want to be hot and sweaty by the time I get to work and get my dress clothes sweaty. Hmmmmm......not sure!!0

Water - 13 cups (104oz) drunk so far! +1

I also did:
50 crunches

So that makes it 4 miles out of 12 complete so far this week!
No budge on my scale yet... but I had a major sodium weekend so I am sure I am still trying to get rid of the water weight.
Have a great evening everyone!0 -

Just in case you didn't hear.....right now as it stands we are in the lead but only by one point! 233 was our team score with an overall weight loss of 48lbs! Which is just phenomenal. Keep up the great work and keep pushing yourselves. 1st week is always great weeks 2 -3 are the hard weeks. We can do this. Keep pushing yourself farther. If you've been doing 2 miles go 2.5 and next week go 3 and on week 4 go 4miles. Or try jogging a mile instead of walking a mile. Life 10lbs instead of 5. Don't hurt yourself but keep your body always guessing and keep it challenged. IN a month all these little goals will seem like childs play. That's the idea! I'm so proud of you all and I want to thank you for allowing me to be apart of this journey with you!
UNLEASH THE BEAST WITHIN!

I feel extremely run down today... my body is weak and I feel very low on energy. I am going to do the challenge today but I don't think I will complete my miles today. I need to listen to my body and slow down for a day.... I will add a mile tomorrow and the next day so that I won't let my team down since I committed 12 miles this week! I wish I could pedal my miles on a bike! I can only walk them as I don't have a gym membership AND I have to lug my 5 year old behind me (and she starts whining after the first mile, lol)!
Hope everyone has a good day today!0 -
