    What kind of boards are you studying for? I'll be hitting the books for nursing boards (NCLEX) pretty soon

    NCLEX RN. I've been studying for weeks and weeks and just pushed back my test date today for another 3 weeks. I'm freaking out big time! I use the ncsbn online campus among other study tools, and just feel that I'm not prepared. I know I can do it, I'm just nervous.

    Good Luck with your studies!

    I took the NCLEX 10 years ago. I don't think I was ever so nervous for a test! You will do fine. Just be sure to review everything!:wink::laugh:

    Started phase 2 this week. I have been feeling more tired with the workouts. I am sure it is because I am not eating very well. I wish I wasn't a see-food eater! I would do so much better!

    First thing is it Kenpo or Kempo, I have read both. That is what I am doing tonight. I had legs and back last night. My legs did not want to do it, but I pushed through. Hope everyone is okay this week!!!

    Just did KenpoX. I feel like that's a nice easy workout. End of week 3 for me!

    Question-
    What do you all eat for breakfast?

    I'm trying to think of some higher protein breakfasts. Thinking about adding eggs into my diet but I don't want to eat them everyday. Other alternatives? I know greek yogurt is high in protein too- any brand suggestions? I've had plain Fage greek yogurt before and it was really good! My carb intake is through the roof (compensating for not eating a lot of meat or dairy I assume, but it's ridiculously high) and I think that's why I'm holding on to these last 10 pounds or so (for the last 3 years). Not that I'm a total freak about the weight- I just hate the tummy pooch :mad: haha.

    Hi Meg, I eat eggs and oatmeal nearly every day for breakfast. I scramble three whites and one yolk to keep the fat lower. My diary is public if you want to look at it. (I like Kenpo X a lot too.)

    I am pretty surprised/jazzed that I've lost 4.2 pounds since last Monday. I had a body comp test done yesterday, and my BF percentage is 21.5%, which I figure isn't too shabby for an old lady. I'd like to get it under 20%, which should be completely doable.

    I'm looking forward to Shoulders & Arms and Ab Ripper X today.

    How's everybody doing?

    Did Stretch X today and don't feel like I did much so I am going to go on the elliptical later or maybe a walk if it warms up. We had spring, skipped summer and it is -5 today. At least the snow all melted yesterday :sad:

    Today was Shoulders & Arms and I finally braved Ab Ripper for the first time. Difficult! I have been STARVING the past 2 days so I think my metabolism must be revving up, I just cannot seem to get full for very long!

    Shoulders & Arms for me today but no Ab Ripper with this pulled muscle in lower abdomen. Feel pretty good so far. Still have to run today, but that's the easy workout. Great workouts today everyone!

    Hey everybody! I'm looking forward to my Yoga X today. It's funny that I used to dread it when I did this before, but now I appreciate every single workout. I am thankful for that. It makes life a whole lot more fun.

    Hope you all have great workouts today!
