Sisterhood HCP Week 11
Replies
-
so far today I did my couch to 5k run and then shoulders and arms...burned 400 cals.
breakfast/lunch coffee with non fat creamer, yogurt, 2 cups of baby spinach with balsamic vinegrette, apple and peanut butter
No shin splints for me....but my b/f is a soccer player and i know he stretches a ton...he always yells at me because I dont stretch enough.
Oh and potassium is really good too, so keep it up with the bananas!0 -
Okay, so I was planning on doing my c25k program, and 4 minutes into it, my sister called me. In the past, I would have just got off the treadmill, and talked, but today I kept at a brisk walk and talked at the same time. I ran for 5 minutes after we hung up. I didn't burn as many calories as usual, but I still have P90X later tonight to compensate.
Lunch and snack: Healthy Choice steam meal, apple, and string cheese
My totals so far, 705 calories consumed today
You'll notice that I'm pretty much eating the same exact food as yesterday... When I'm at my parent's house, helping take care of my grandfather, I take what ever is convenient to eat...:ohwell:0 -
Im all about the convenient foods, with work and school all I really have is a microwave available during the day. Its interesting seeing all these people who eat so well on here and have all these different foods but I just dont have the time to cook. Plus its just me and the pup most days at my house so cooking a whole meal for one is no easy feat.
You should be proud of yourself that you kept walking even though you got a phone call! walking is still good too! :drinker:
for my snacks I had 10 green olives, a plum, a cup of chicken noodle soup, and a cup of green tea.
So far I have had 586 cals...So I still have a little over 1100 for pizza tonight with the girls :laugh: Im pretty proud of myself that Im preparing ahead of time for the cals.0 -

I figured out that without the planning, I completely go out of control in those kinds of situations!!! Great job thinking your day through!! My husband is going out of town for training-5 days worth!!! I'm considering ordering a pizza for me and the girls, plus my mom and sister... My dad is also away for training right now, it's just us females!!! I have a bunch of calories left, plus I'm still working out w/ P90X later tonight... Hmmmm. I think I might just do it!!!0

Hellllooooo, ARI!!!!!
I am so glad to have my happy lil' snail back with us!!! Pretty soon, you just wait, you'll be back to a tortiose in no time!
I am so happy to see that you're eating 3 meals, plus snacks... :drinker: I know you have a really hard time getting enough calories throughout the day! I think you can add some cheese back into your diet, to up those calories!:bigsmile:
If anyone deserves a vacay, it's you!!! Enjoy some time off from your stressful job, have fun, and you'll feel like a million bucks!!!! Oh, and stress can make your body want to hang on to those extra calories, too. Maybe you could try out yoga? I have to do it with my P90X program, and even though it's not my favorite, I do feel more relaxed when I am done!!!!!
You're my hero, Ari!!!!:drinker:0 -
ahem 4 people lol (and mister who seems semi back CONGRATS ON BABY GIRL AND HOUSE come back more)
luv u too resa bit better baby steps i got my butt kicked these past weeks its a bit sore :laugh:

snail soon to be hopefully back to tortoise (weight and see pun intended) otherwise known as Ariella 0 -
Sorry for not posting again last night... I DID GET MY PIZZA-I ordered vegetarian, with a salad. The only downfall is I have no clue what the calorie content was, because it's a local restaurant. I had 2 pieces of a small pizza... So I found something I thought was comparable. I had 21 calories left before doing P90X:laugh:
I'll catch up a little more later-GOOD MORNING!!!0 -
Hello all....Im not feeling so hot today :sick: so I probably wont post much. After work Im going to go home and sleep the night away. :yawn:
Ari- Sushi is my new found
Im jealous you probably have great sushi in NYC! Here in MI we really dont have a whole lot of options. And I do agree with Resa great job on eating throughout the whole day, that will really help with your metabolism :drinker:
Resa- Great restraint with the pizza! I too only had two pieces :drinker: I dont think I am going to get a workout in today though :sad: I Have a terrible migraine and just need to sleep it off :blushing: Have a good day/ night :flowerforyou:
I look forward to hearing from everyone tomorrow :flowerforyou: you guys really keep me going :drinker:0 -

Meg-boy do I hate it when you get those!!! I always feel like one of my eyeballs is trying to find a way out of my head...:sick: Take care of yourself, and feel better soon!!!
Ari-I'm half Korean, and I love sushi, but we don't call it sushi-to us it's kimpop... I have never tried the raw fish kind, though:noway: ... I'm waaaay too much of a chicken! But I make my very own California Rolls, and I love to make some we call Alaska Rolls, which have smoked salmon, cucumber, and cream cheese. I make mine with low fat, of course!!!
I always make them to take to my daughter's teacher, or my husband's work, and even my 4 year-old's best friend from pre-school!!! Can you believe her friend would eat it every day if her parents could make it?!!!
Anway, I hope everyone has a great weekend, and I'll post later with my calories... FEEL BETTER, MEG!!!!0 -
thats so cool i thought sushi was sushi lol. my fav food of all time (this from the kid who used to hate any food with things in them) its so good for u (excpet the mercury poisoning lol) but thankfully i love fish cause otherwise things would be much harder. next week is a holiday many foods i cant eat so it should be intersting.
hope to talkto u guys soon
oh yeah didnt walk yesterday pepple feeling rain was coming down so i walked today and wed thurs im gonna walk my off excercise days (which im gonna do bonus ) andi have 2 weeks off so extra excercise here i come.0 -
Hello all,
Thanks for all the well wishes, I slept for 11 hrs and was good to go. I think it was all your happy thoughts that made the migraine leave :laugh:
Resa- your sushi sounds delish! I think I may have to try that sometime
Ari-thats so exciting to have 2 weeks off! I dont have my two weeks off till the end of April, but its coming up fast!
So far today I burned 543 cals
coffee with creamer, oatmeal, 2 small slices of cheese pizza, 2 cups of baby spinach with balsalmic vinegrette, diet coke, and probably another salad when I get home from work
Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend :flowerforyou:0 -
Meg-I'm so happy that you feel better!!! I was definitely sending you happy thoughts all day! :happy:
I did something horrible today and skipped breakfast!!!:sick: I did have a banana, but I really didn't plan my morning through very well... So far today I have had:
Banana
Healthy choice steamer
String cheese, small apple
Chicken breast, 1/2 cup macaroni and cheese
See's gourmet lollypop:bigsmile:
I need to enter everything into my food diary, so I'll update with calories later... And I have KenpoX later!!!
What do you think about me doing Taebo instead, though? I'm curious to see how the calorie burn would compare...0 -
Ari and Meg-if you ever come up to Alaska, I'll make you all the sushi you can eat!!!:bigsmile:0
-
Okay, I haven't worked out yet, but I still have 350+ calories left in the day... It's because I skipped breakfast!!!:frown: I am going to burn at least another 400 calories tonight, so I will be treating myself to popcorn and string cheese after I work out!!! Yeah, buddy! I'll let you all know how it goes.
Where is everyone else? I'm starting to worry about our lil' thread!0 -
I'm here. I was super busy yesterday. We did a 5 K in the morning. It was my whole family, so both my girls. I did it in 41:25 so 10 sec more. I am ok with that though since I had my 7 year old with me and she was doing a kinder volksmarch at the same time so we had to stop at booths along the way. Then we had a whole festival for Month of the Military child. Today we are off to the zoo! BTW I bought the Polar F11 again. I still am not crazy about the chest strap but I do like knowing how many calories I burn. Ressa and Meg you guys must do some crazy workouts to burn as many calories as you do. I don't ever burn more than 300. Well yesterday at the 5 K I burned 470 and ate them right up with a chocolate brownie and burger at the festival. Anyway gotta get ready for the zoo.0

I'm here!!! I was updating my food diary! I am about to leave-I need to help at my parent's house really quick, and then I need to put the kids to bed! I promise I'll update more once I work out, but you will all be in bed by then!:sad:
It's been so hectic today that I honestly didn't have time to post. My husband is coming home tomorrow night, so things will be a little less stressful then. Well, maybe not... I am watching my sister's insane dog again for another 1 1/2 months!!!!:sick: My husband said that she's just as crazy as she used to be. I'll explain more later...0 -
Poor Resa- kids and a crazy dog? I dont know how you do it
Ari- I am here! I was writing a contract for school all day yesterday so I didnt have time to post.
Christine- Having you been using your Polar F11 you should get a better idea of you calorie burn then.
Yessterday I started P90x over. Previously I had been mainly just doing the cardio workouts and not the weight training, but now I realize Im not getting any results I need to follow the plan to a T.
So yesterday was day one. I did chest and back and abs. Burned 434 calories. :drinker:
I dont get to do my next workout til tonight at 8:30 so I will post after that...and I really need to get on the ball with posting pictures :grumble: maybe after my workout tonight, he he
Hope everyone is having a good MOnday!0 -
omg im going for my walk right now and i am freaked out cause its thunder and lightning i was gonna walk around the block but i have a small fear of lighting (well getting struck by it) so on moms recomendation and convincing im gonna do the 30 day shred and 1 hour walk tom (i hope) also i plan on walking on my bonus days while on vaca 7 days working out wow commitment dont quote me though (wait u can lol)
ah hate not walking b back lata0 -
Ari- GOod luck with the 30 day shred, let me know how it goes! I have read alot of posts on it and it seems to really work for some people :happy:0
-
Okay, so I am back with enough time to let you in on what's been going on here...
My sister's dog-The poor thing hasn't been trained, and we watched it for her for about 2 months while she was in school and her husband was out of town for training. We gave her back, and now with the volcano, my sister's husband had to go out of town to guard airplanes that had to be moved... So they asked us to watch her again for another month and a half. The only problem is, after she stayed with us for 2 months she was TRAINED... I was able to house train her, and get her to behave herself around my 2 dogs...
My husband called me and said that the people who had been watching this dog for the last 3 weeks hasn't been taking good care of her. She is now absolutely INSANE and it took him 5 minutes just to get her to calm down enough for him to put her on a leash. With 2 dogs of my own, plus the kids, I am NOT LOOKING FORWARD to having to train her again.
Sheesh, look how much that took up to explain!!! Oh, and on top of everything else, my 4 year old woke up with a fever, and I think her double ear infection came back:sick: ... All hell likes to break loose when my husband is out of town...:sad:0 -
Oh Resa! That is terrible about the dog and your little one :ohwell: HOpefully it is just an overnight fever or flu, not that that's any better but maybe it will go away quickly.
Ill be sending good thoughts your way so the dog will come back to reality and behave, and your little one will feel better! :flowerforyou:0 -
teressa all im gonna say is :noway:
meg i hate the shred cause its jillian and u know shes gonna kick ur butt but it was good i got through it . the only thing is the workout is an intense 20 min but i dont feel like i worked out now cant explain miss my walk i think its the short ness and i know i walk at least 30 min plus strength but i did it cause i didnt want to die lol0 -
I wouldn't worry Ari about not walking, plus like you said it saved your life he he he :laugh: . Im sure the 30 day shred even though its short, still burns a ton of cals because it is so intense. Hopefully the weather will be better tomorrow so you can walk again. THe weather is horrible hear too, super cold :grumble:0
