Smokin' Hot Green Pepper's ~ Week #1

CrystalT

hi all,i love cook your self thin, yesterday i made a big pot of chicken veg soup,yum, lots of veg, no fat ,how do you all figure the calorie count for homemeade food, when i did wwatchers you could build a recipe, then figure portion calories, does this site have anything like that? i can't seem to find it.

kelly, thanks for friending me, am i understanding correctly that each week we have a different motivational goal? ah so THATS why everyone was talking about h2o!!!!! lol

today my sisiter is comming to sit with mom, she lives with us post stroke, her balance is unsteady& can't be left alone. so dh & i are out for lunch & shopping, i plan to do alot of walking lol.
karen

I always use sparkrecipes.com. They have a recipe calculator on their site.

Karen ~ hi there....our current challenge is try to get in 8 glasses or more of water a day, and tomorrow we will start a new challenge. we will probably all take turns picking something. have fun shopping!

crystal ~ the fruit challenge is great. I am just the opposite. I am good with my fruits, but veggies are a struggle for me. I usually only eat 2 fruits a day and at least double that for veggies ( when I am doing good ). yes, this whole journey will lead us to improved health. I always tell myself, there are many things in life we have no control over, but when it comes to food/exercise/thoughts we have all the power in the world. it is our choice what we choose to eat, how to move and what to think. and it is also one of the things we CAN change! it really is up to us if we desire to be healthier. Thanks for your wise comments!

I treated myself yesterday to the Cook Yourself Thin cookbook, I LOVE it. If you haven't seen the show it is really great. They take ordinary recipes and revamp them with fewer calories and fat, lots of great ideas. I've probably made at least 10 of their recipes since I started watching the show (had been downloading them from the internet) so decided it was time I got the book. I recommend it if you are looking for some new ideas.

Thanks for the review. I've been debating on getting the cookbook since the show was on. I think I probably will at some point.

I debated it for a long time too, especially since I could find all of the recipes online, but it is really nice to have them all in one place. And it has a cute cover

I've always had a hard time getting the website to load. This is going to be a treat at some point. Everything on the show has always looked so good!!

:bigsmile: :flowerforyou: Morning!
Megan- The 3 challenges sounds fun! we should totally do something like taht (Like a goal set for exercises in a month, like when they did the 150 pound thing on BL this week:)
:bigsmile: :bigsmile:
I have a million cook books, and I to cook, but for me the more veggies in a meal, the better:)
Karen welcome!
Kelly- gotta find my books and then will send you some flavoring tips;)

The roller rink KICKED MY BUTT!:grumble: :grumble: :noway: :noway: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:
I FELL so hard!
It happened like this:
I go to the rink thinking that i was a GREAT skater 20 years ago when I last went:bigsmile: so Im just gonna pick up from there right.....NOT right!!! It is hard to relearn to skate and to try to teach my 5 years old and my 6 year old to skate (Good thing that they wanted to go off by themselfs and do it most of the time) LOL:bigsmile: :laugh: :laugh:
This was a hard fact for me to face being so bad at this that i once was so good at, and especialy taht in a year puls from now when we move I planned to start training to do some roller derby (Something for me to do aways from the kids and be healthy doing it) A great goal, but I stink at it so lastnight I made my pact with myself! WHATEVER IT TAKES!!!!!! and I mean WHATEVER!!! I am gonna get in shape for it, I am gonna practice, and I am gonna make myself pround when I make this goal a reality!
I have not excuses, my hubby, is gona for a while, and the kids are at school, ( For most of the day except my little one half-day) Im gonna kick this crap in gear hard!
Get ready to see some change from my side gals!:) :bigsmile: :bigsmile:
ok enough with the story from me!:) I hope you all have a great day !

Well my walk today went very well. I walked 2 miles in 40 mins. :bigsmile: the leg cramp was not as bad today, had to stop a couple of times to stretch it out. :grumble: Next week my speed should be faster.
That maybe my problem, I am not walking as fast as I was. Once the cramp goes away (while walking), I can pick up my speed. In the mean time I will just have to do extra exercise to burn the amount of calories I need.

Hope everyone's day is going well. Still thinking about challenges, I like the fruit one, 3 different color fruits a day or maybe 5 servings of fruits/veggies a day. I will be continuing the water challenge, because that is always a challenge for me :laugh:

Check back in later.

Sorry you fell!! Hope you didn't hurt yourself.

Good luck getting in shape!! I know you can do it!!

My friend has requested I make her a couple of pies while she is visitng. I love to bake, so of course I agreed. Why couldn't I just let it be at that? I just HAD to go to figure out the nutritional value. :mad: I knew it would be bad, but the one I checked is 453 calories a slice. :noway: Now that I know, I don't want to eat it. I told myself I wasn't even going to worry about logging calories while she's here because this is such a rare occasion and I want to enjoy myself. I expect to gain weight while she's here (shameful, I know:embarassed: ). Why can't I just let it go?? :explode:

kelly_a

takin a lil break here from laundry, supper prep, my doggies....

megan ~ i like your challenge ideas. i am ok with doing multiple's...and as always, team, you can do the challenges if you like or not. sometimes too many changes is a lil much for some of us....baby steps vs. leaps! i'd like to get one thing mastered before i move on to something else. water is going good here and so is the fruit.....need to work on my veggies and exercise!:grumble:

MissV ~ love, LOVE the new avatar pic! lol, i bet you are just a blast to be around! hope you're not too sore today.... your post was so e-x-c-t-i-n-g to read! i love your attitude MVVC!! you rock! i am thrilled to have our very own SHGP become a derby queen and share the process with us! if anyone can do it, YOU can!! woot woot! keep us posted on all your doings, rink or not!

sindy ~ i will keep with the water challenge and am fine if we add another or more.

OK TEAM~~any other ideas to add to the new challenge for tomorrow? looks like many of us are going to continue with the water, and as of right now, looks like we will have a food challenge ~

3 FRUITS A DAY, PREFERABLY DIFFERENT COLORED ONES.

does anyone want to add an exercise challenge? post your ideas plz!!

ALSO *** late tonite *** I will post a new link for SHGP Week 2. GO PEPPERS!

i think part of your feelings is just total awareness of your changing lifestyle. becoming comfortable with the *new you* is a struggle on it's own. are you making 2 diff pies...could one be the regular and the other healthier? i know there are recipes out there for converting.....but, i say have some pie, how bout 1/2 of a 1/2? and just be careful with everything else you eat this weekend. you already know your likely going to be dining out. eat 1/2 of the entree and box the rest if possible....and drink water, lots and lots, more than usual. take a deep breath and relax...don't obsess about the food, and enjoy the special time you are going to have w/ your friend! i am getting so excited for you!! :flowerforyou:

Learned hubby has the flu. Great.......
Luckily the kids are with my ex this week - they won't return to me until late Sunday afternoon.
This gives hubby some days of quiet & rest before they return back.

sorry about him having the flu...hope he gets better soon!

Welcome to Karen - A cruise is a great motivation. You will lose the pounds you want to and will be healthy and ready to enjoy - I will warn you - this site is addictive!!

I treated myself yesterday to the Cook Yourself Thin cookbook, I LOVE it. If you haven't seen the show it is really great. They take ordinary recipes and revamp them with fewer calories and fat, lots of great ideas. I've probably made at least 10 of their recipes since I started watching the show (had been downloading them from the internet) so decided it was time I got the book. I recommend it if you are looking for some new ideas.

Also really happy with my scale this morning, down 1.5 lb, I'd been stuck for a few weeks, however I've come to expect that as it seems to be the way my body works. I'll drop, then stay at that weight for about 3 weeks, then drop again. so I'm becoming comfortable with it. Hoping it shows the same tomorrow morning, or drops even more for our weigh in.

Really looking forward to the end of the day as I have a massage scheduled. :happy:

Hope everyone has a GREAT day!!!

never heard of the cookbook but will have to check it out....sounds really awesome. Congrats on the weight loss jenn...that is great. Hoping you see results tomorrow as well.

kitn621

Ladies....good afternoon!!!
I am hoping to get to the gym tonight. Couldnt get there yesterday unless I wanted to go at 9pm and if I did that...I would have never gotten to sleep. If I cant make it to the gym I might try and walk the neighborhood across the street from me with my daughter and/or just do some stair climbing at home and/or free weights that my husband and boys have. We'll see...
I hope everyone has been having a great day so far....think thin ladies for tomorrow...and I hope everyone of you get to see results on the scale or least in inches.
I dont know that I will see anything; loss or gain, but thats okay. Just keep pushing harder and harder everyday and hope that one day it will just *click* and the light bulb comes on and it all becomes second nature to me and I dont struggle anymore!
Something we all wish for daily, I know.
Trying to collect items for donation here at work for all the flood victims....so many people have lost everything and there were many lives that were taken b/c of it. lots of roads are still closed and so traffic is crazier now than ever!!!!
Just hoping for the recovery to kick in soon but waiting on the president to announce this as a disaster so people can start getting the low interest rate loans to rebuild. We are taking up donations of items here so Im going home today and gathering items we dont need. Jackets and clothing that doesnt fit, buying some toiletry items as well, getting blankets and sheets too and hoping to see our community really come together for those in need. :bigsmile: Going to see if MIL needs help at her church assisting those that they are trying to help this weekend.....needing to do something to make others feel good and see that there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Well, I wish you all a great day....and we will talk again tomorrow morning!!!

Glad we are keeping the water challenge, I am game for any challenges the more the better for me, keeps me motivated.

I have to say I have had a few group that I have joined, but this one is really motivating and everyone comes on at least once a day. In others I might see a post every couple of days. I love the Smokin' Hot Green Pepper's I need daily interaction.

You ladies are the best :drinker: :flowerforyou:

Crystal you can always have half a slice, that is what I did with the cake, had just a taste with half the calories. :drinker:

Ok this sight is very addicting :laugh: will check back later

kitn621

oh and challenging ideas....kell I liked the fruit servings and veggie servings, getting in some sort of picked/desired exercise in everyday....(squats, situps, pushups) but do 5 more everyday then the day before, (or something ike that) ummmm.....maybe have everyday every person logs in and tells one things they did that day that helped them whether eating great at a meal or doing some sort of exercise throughout that day.....just ideas...let me know.

jacque509

Hey all!! wow busy day for the peppers:happy:
V- love the glasses!!:laugh: I use to rollar skate all the time and loved it, so I know how u feel about that
Crystal-Ok, this trick helps me on the holidays to not gain weight and it helps on the weekends too at get togethers. I don't denied myself anything, I just do what sindy said cut it in half. At thanksgiving I ate everything I just gave myself 1 serving spoon only and try not to have it heaping.
Peppers- This is what been going on in my head, on the last BL they talked about 3 oz of meat and weighting it. I know this is one of my major issue. I always want more meat! So I went shopping and I divied the meat up in serving sizees and froze them. So the last 2 nights I only put out the serving size for each person and it went ok. My mine still wanted more meat but there was no more made so I couldn't eat more. My son even went back for seconds and when he saw none he said well that ok I'm full anyway. So this is a new challage for me and kiddo.
I also decided to go back to the old lunch I had growing up as a kid. You know sanwhich, apple, chips and a cookie, but make it a little healtier. I have no idea where the idea of having a meal for lunch came from, so any ideas welcome
Well that ran long hahahaha:laugh:

jacque509

oh yeah doing good on water,
Like kit idea on the exercise!!

kitn621

:bigsmile: :flowerforyou: Morning!
Megan- The 3 challenges sounds fun! we should totally do something like taht (Like a goal set for exercises in a month, like when they did the 150 pound thing on BL this week:)
:bigsmile: :bigsmile:
I have a million cook books, and I to cook, but for me the more veggies in a meal, the better:)
Karen welcome!
Kelly- gotta find my books and then will send you some flavoring tips;)

Get ready to see some change from my side gals!:) :bigsmile: :bigsmile:
ok enough with the story from me!:) I hope you all have a great day !
the pepperzzzzzzz

sorry about the fall...I would do the same though. Doing things now that you could do as a kid or even young teen just take a toll on your body. I tried to get on roller blades 6 months ago and busted my a** in front of my step son and he couldnt stop laughing long enough to even help me up. I want to get back into skating b/c it was so much fun but would like to practice where there arent so many kids whipping my me....need to find a day that is not quite so busy or something. But good look on kicking this into gear and getting out there and showing them other kids how it should be done. LOL

I know and usually I'm happy to obsess over food. If that's what it takes, I'm willing to do it. I just wish I could listen to myself when I say not to worry about it. Neither pie is healthy, just two different kinds. She wants a butterscotch pecan and a chocolate truffle. I just looked at the calories for the other pie and it is 519!! I'll just keep telling myself that it's a special occasion. I'm sure I'll probably stop worrying about it once she's here. I'm just bored at work right now. Nothing better to do. :yawn:

:bigsmile: :bigsmile:
Ok let me start off here:) Kelly I think we should a group exercise GOAL for the month (In minutes or houres or whatnot) and see if we can log it and or go over it! as a group that should be awesome, like they did with the weight challenge on the BL (the 150 pounds to loose as a group) I would love to do something like that
Kit- I totally hated the feeling of all the youngsters laughing at me, when I was so good years ago:) I think you should get back on those skates too:) :bigsmile: :bigsmile:
Crystal-I know I took a vacation to california, and I swear that all my husband wanted to do was eat at the places that we didn't have here!LOL:laugh: I think we ate more then we visited people:) LOL.
Just limit yourself, so that you don't feel basd about it, maybe ask your friend to share a piece of pie with you and then give the rest away! Good luck sweets!
:bigsmile:
Jacque- Love the meat thing that you did! What a huge step in the right direction not only for yourself, but for the whole family:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: Very proud of ya peper friend!
Did good on the water today unlike all the other days, can't wait until payday so taht I can buy good food:laugh: :bigsmile:
have a great night! all! I will be with McDreamy!!!:) Woooooot:bigsmile: :bigsmile:

hey all, how's your Wed going? thinkin of ya all and gettin excited for our weigh in day!!

kitn sweety..i'll try to give you some ideas here....before i go on my bus route i don't have much time to prep anything. it has to be quick and finger food. so, I usually have a banana and some walnuts or almonds. when i do have a little more time, i will have an orange, gotta peel it, but i know ppl who peel them the nite before and it's already to eat when the time comes. these are my other bkfst choices, Kashi Go Lean Cinnamon Harvest ( if in a hurry, i eat it dry, like a snack too!) dh says they are like bales of hay:laugh: , similar to shredded wheat. do you like hard boiled eggs? plan and peel ahead of time. cleaning and cutting up fresh veggies on Sunday helps so I can grab quickly out of my frig. I also like the Laughing Cow Light Original Swiss Wedges which are single serving size...those I pack for all my days I run errands. I also like the Kraft Deli Selects 2% Swiss Slices., already cut, just grab and go. What about whole wheat toast and peanut butter? can you cook a whole bunch of chicken breasts or fish at one time and then keep in the fridge or freezer? and i always make 2-3 cans of my tuna salad and just measure out a serving size when I make a sandwhich. I think salads take the most prep for me. Lately, I have been grilling onions, peppers, broccoli or cauliflower w/spices in tinfoil, and that would be a good left over too. i understand your frustration and how easily this can lessen your desire to move ahead, give up and not care about yourself. if you have any other ques, plz ask. we care about you and love you!! losing wt is not easy...it takes hard work and planning on our part....and i think once the new lifestyle becomes more of a routine, it will be less of a hassle and just a way of life. i have faith in you, and know you can do this!! believe in you kitn!

oh, and something else i have been eating a lot of lately is dark red small kidney beans. i cooked an entire pkg and have to eat it every day or it'll go to waste. i warm it a little in the micro, add some fresh salsa for taste and wrap it in a whole wheat tortilla. if any of you are looking for some ways to get protein, here it is,(the beans) with very few cals, sodium. it is so filling, even if i have 2 servings, i am stuffed!

Thanks for the idea about the beans. I am looking for ways to increase the protein in my diet without adding fat and sodium.

Happy Wednesday!
When the school year started I decided I needed a bigger lunch bag. There is no fridge at the office… we’re lucky to have a microwave.

Well, in the morning the lunch bag won’t zip shut -- too many containers & ice block. I’m bringing a breakfast, morning snack, lunch, afternoon snack, & sometimes a protein shake. However all this food gets me close to my daily suggested calorie consumption.

By the end of the work day, I’ve consumed the food and the empty containers fit just dandy in the lunch bag.

Of course if I eat breakfast at home… there would be one less container but I’m soo not with it first thing in the morning.

I’ve taken to bringing a co-worker along when I walk at lunch. The company is good. This gives us a chance to have “girl talk” time outside the office walls.

I'm rather proud of myself. At the back to school night I did not have any of the refreshments in the lunch room.

Although, my body did not want to run today. Only was able to do 1 mile - then I went on the stationary bike for 20 minutes.

Great job!:flowerforyou:

Welcome to the group.

kelly_a

and.......here i am again! lovin all the ideas you SHPeppers are bringin here!

kitn ~ you are doing such a wonderful thing by giving to your town....it might not seem like it now, but your community will survive this and you'll grow closer and stronger b/c of it. hang in there...prayers from Iowa..:flowerforyou:

jacque ~ way to go on the meat pkg/plannin! you are doing it! i am so proud of you! and i agree w/you 110%...'no restrictions' when it comes to food. we can have our favorites, in moderation..and just savor each bite!

crystal ~ awwww, so special of you to come ** here** while at work to check on us peppers! means a lot!! :smooched:

miss v ~ that is an awesome idea! yes, i love that! will def get me movin'....and we can be accountable to and for each other!

**UPDATE 9/25 challenge **

1 ~ food, 3 fruits/diff color day
2 ~ exercise...we are going to do a *group* challenge. Right now I am thinking if 15 ppl ( our team size) can do 2 hrs of exercise/workout a week = 30 hrs a week, x 4 weeks = 120 hrs a month for the whole team to work towards? what do you guys think? is this doable or should we increase/decrease it? i think it could be a little higher and this will force us, well, hopefully we will want to do this :bigsmile: to push ourselves and see all that we really are capable of doing?? share your thoughts plz!

I will be starting a new thread b4 i go to bed tonite....so you can still post here.....and i will have the new link or you can look for Smokin' Hot Green Peppers ~ Week 2 tomorrow under Motivation and Support.

Skinny vibes to all the peppers for wi tomorrow! Let's do it team!

I love the idea for the challenge. For the exercise portion I vote we up it a little higher to 2.5 hours/per week. That breaks down to about 30 min/5 days. It is just a suggestion. I don't know how much other people exercise but I usually go to the gym 5 days a week for at least 1 hour everyday. Some days I am there for 3 hours (broke into 2 sessions). I mostly swim and do water aerobics especially now the baby on the way. I have to be careful not to get to hot. I find swimming makes me not feel sick so I am trying to spend as much time as I can in the water.

angiemcnett

I am feeling sad tonight. :sad: I could not feed my special needs son, Ody tonight because I am getting morning sickness in the afternoon and evening. I can't wait to get past this stage of my pregnancy. Feeding Ody dinner is my time with him. I feel like a bad mom. I am grateful that my husband was home to feed him. I couldn't even be in the room. I attempted to give him food I love to eat. I guess this is one way to lose weight NOT that I recommend it. Thankfully water challenge was a good challenge for me. I have drank at least 10 cups of water everyday. It helps me feel better when the smell, sight or thought of food is not appealing in the afternoon and evening.

angiemcnett

Thank you all for the birthday wishes. I had a relaxing day at home. My husband took me out for lunch. I had a hot fudge sundae.:happy: I have been wanting ice cream since I got pregnant. I try to limit my self to the less fatten kind and only occasionally. Goodnight. I will check in tomorrow with you.

Angie
Ok, there was this one meal you could not do for your son because the sight & smell of food disagreed with you.

This does not make you a bad mom.

Next Challenge
Just let me know what is decided for the challenges.
The fruit may be challenging but as I reviewed what I ate this week, it's doable. Just require thought.
The exercise challenge that could be very doable thinking about what I typically do.

Hubby's not revealing if regular flu or this swine flu. Being stubborn. He's camping out on the couch. I just don't want to catch it so....I keep away from the couch. Not easy since I have a small house.

I'll do my curves weight/measurements at 8am. So hopefully, there will be some changes. Then later in the afternoon, I have a body wrap scheduled.
