  • Yes, we are counting all miles for the 100 miles. So, you have 5.5 for the week.
    Mission Accomplished!

    Challenge and Mini Challenge - Check
    Water - Check

    Logged Food - Check

    2 miles done plus extra 1 mile for challenge. Add that to my 2.5 yesterday and I am at 5.5 (or 4.5) for the week. Not sure if we count the extra mile for the challenge.

    Everyone have a great day!!
  • PLEASE READ....PLEASE READ.....PLEASE READ

    The extra mile walked from yesterday CAN be used toward your 100 mile commitment. Also, you are allowed to swim, jog, run, bike, skate, use the elliptical and basically everything EXCEPT DRIVE your mile and count it! So please resubmit your mile totals with all of the miles that you have done this week so far. Thanks!

    A Favorite Recipe:

    I know it's an oldie, but it's a goodie. This has been a favorite of my familiy's since it was published 15 years ago! Her Paella is excellent also. P.S. The MFP database already has the nutrition info but it is posted under the recipe.

    Title: Rosie's Unfried Chicken
    Categories: Poultry Entree Lowcal
    Yield: 12 Pieces

    Lt. veg. oil cooking spray
    6 Chicken drumsticks
    3 Whole chicken breast, 1/2ved
    3 1/2 c Ice Water
    1 c Plain nonfat yogurt
    BREADING
    1 c Dried Italian bread crumbs
    1 c All-purpose flour
    1 tb Old bay seasoning
    1/2 ts Garlic powder
    1/2 ts Creole seasoning
    1/8 ts Freshly ground black pepper
    Dash cayenne pepper
    1/2 ts Dried thyme
    1/2 ts Dried basil
    1/2 ts Dried oregano


    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Coat a baking sheet with 3 sprays of the vegetable oil. Put the chicken in a large bowl with the ice water. Put the yogurt into a medium bowl. Set both bowls aside. Toss all the breading ingredients into a large, tightly-sealing plastic bag. Seal and shake well to mix. Remove 2 pieces of chicken from the ice water. Roll each piece in the yogurt. Put the chicken into the plastice bag and reseal and shake to coat thoroughly. Transfer the breaded chicken to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat the process for all 12 pieces. Spray chicken lightly with the vegatable oil. Place the baking sheet on the bottom shelf of the oven and bake for 1 hour, turning the pieces every 20 minutes to allow even browning. Serve room temp or hot.

    *The secret to the sucess of this recipe is to make sure that both the chicken and the yogurt very cold (hence soaking chicken in the water). The prelimanary soaking will help the breading adhere and produce a crisp coating much like that of fried chicken. If you are serving the chicken on a platter rather that on individual dinner plates, it looks smashing on a bed of flowering kale.

    Nutrition info: Fat per piece of breast = 2.2 grams, calories = 185. Fat per drumstick = 4.2 grams, calories = 195

    I am going to start on my mile today!! :)

    Favorite Recipe: Pasta Salad

    Wheat noodles, Low Fat Italian Dressing, Pico Sauce, Pepper Rings, Onions, Shredded Cheese, Ham or Turkey. Cook the noodles, add the rest, there is your pasta salad. Sorry, I don't have the calories or breakdown, but it's a good quick meal!

    OK, that is great to know, that means I am at 3 miles for the week this far instead of 2! I am actually thinking of going swimming tonight, so that is awesome to know too! :D

    Week 2 - Day 3

    MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. Challenge, mini challenge, food diary, under calories, adequate water.
    Add 1 mile to my committed miles - Total 4 miles

    Feeling good that I have been able to complete the challenges. Not so sure about those globe jumps - or whatever they are called. May need to substitute for that. I shall see.

    Ok...so today was SUPER stressful for me....so yeah, I didnt get as much done as I would have liked too...and I kind of sympathy ate...which is bad...oh well tomorrow is a fresh day right ? A fresh day with a fresh start that I am glad for! I still managed to get everything done today that I was supposed to though, that is great, right ? LOL

    64 OUnces of water : CHECK

    Under calorie goal : CHECK

    Complete Food diary : CHECK

    50 Sit ups : CHECK

    50 Mountin Climbers : CHECK

    I didnt do the extra challenge today, I am just too worn out emotionally and physically....I am SUPER tired, so I am off to bed ladies and I will make it up tomorrow. I am off work until August 22...so that should be PLENTY of time to kick my butt into high gear and get motivated and get a HUGE jump start, right ? :D

    I have 8 more miles to do for the week, I am going to hit our local YMCA tomorrow and try to get 2-3 miles done there, that way I can catch up some!! I am also going to try and do some major workouts tomorrow to catch myself up for the week, I have been a bit lazy this week and I feel awful about that...
  • ALL MISSIONS ACCOMPLISHED !!!

    8/10/11 - mission complete

    Today's Challenge - 25 side lateral raises
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDqklk1ZESo

    tomorrows and saturdays mini challenge is going to be a little different...we already have 3 different things we are supposed to do so i dont want to add too much on top of that...so I know I am bad at doing this....STREtCHING...the mini challenge is going to be to stretch for 5 mins before AND after working out....u can do yoga or any kind of stretch...stretching just helps out the muscles so we dont hurt them too much...


    I will not be on as much as i typically am today...taking daughter to sea world before school starts on monday..i have packed snacks for us so that way i wont be too tempted to go all out....plus i will definitaley get my walking in

    Have a wonderful day!

    I keep checking in a day late. Sheesh. By the end of the day, I'm whipped. Just to let you all know, I have accomplished all missions for the week and am at 3 extra miles so far. Going camping tomorrow and doing a lot of hiking so I might even surpass my goal! Where to weigh in might be the problem. Maybe I'll have to find a drugstore and "test out" their scales on Sunday. lol
  • Since biking counts towards are miles I am proud to say you can count me in for 10 miles done.. you can officially change my 5 mile commitment to 20.

    Good Evening Ladies! I was out today due to a procedure that I had to have done to make sure my tummy was in order! LOL Anyway, I FINALLY got the team tracker together and guess what??? With 17 members, we are only FOUR points away from the TOP SPOT! Yes! One of the teams that is ahead of us has 8 members more than we do and we are STILL only THREE points away from them? What does that mean? THat means that we are DOING THIS...so CONSIDER IT DONE! I know we are growing tired because my legs hurt! I may not post everyday about my progress but that is mainly because I am trying to keep up with all of these darn numbers, but I am WITH YOU! So, if you have been slacking over the last few days...it is NOT too late to BOOST it up and KNOCK it out! The highest quantity does NOT always beat the highest quality! I am so proud of you guys and LET'S KEEP IT FLOWING! As your captain, I will do so and ask that you do the same!

    WE CAN DO IT! WE WILL DO IT! CONSIDER IT DONE!

    Mission Accomplished
    3.1 Miles Done

    I am so very proud of our team! I needed to hear that. Thank you Cap for the update. I stepped on the scale this morning and it's UP 1/2 a pound. I don't know what is up with that. I am moving and doing more than I ever have and I'm flooding my body with water. It's got to start going down soon, right? I'm not slacking! Honestly, you should see the sweat :-)

    8/11 - mission complete

    mini challenge for today and tomorrow - STRETCHING- i am seeing a bunch of posts saying my legs are getting worn out, im sore, etc. I am challenging you to get 5 mins of stretching in BEFORE and AFTER your work...even do a lil yoga if you want


    i will be in and out again today...daughter has meet the teacher day!


    oh and not sure how many miles i did yesterday walking around sea world...we were there for about 6 hours
  • ivygirl...it is probably water and muscle...don't get discouraged...us woman fluctuate in weight normally from day to day...just keep going and you will see it go down...how are your measurements..sometimes we see the change there first before we see the scale go down...love ya girlie, keep it up your doing great !!!
  • I am sorry to say I probably won't be able to do the challenge for today due to my foot...did the jumping jacks last night and now foot is kinked or something...and now my opposite hip has a hitch...lol...please don't hate me or throw rotten tomatoes at me...I think I have overdone it...so I'm taking the day off to heal so I can get right back up tomorrow and kick some major BOO-TAY !!!

    That being said I will do the water, and food log and be under my calories...and my 5+ miles are done for the 100 mile walk for the team and I submitted my recipe as well.
