    question for tomorrow I have one stair in my house and I honestly don't know of anywhere close that has stairs (most things here are one level) so what can I do in place for the 100 stairs?

    Today was good day.

    100 Jumping Jacks = DONE
    3 sets of 21 = DONE (I did not cry like a little girl)
    8 glasses of water = DRANK
    Calories = UNDER (waaay under today. Was not very hungry today)

    Don’t know if this will count, but in addition to the 4 miles I was supposed to run today, I also did 10 extra miles on my stationary bike. Can we use all/part of those extra miles towards our 100 mile goal?

    I have the very same question. Will a stair climber at the gym work for this?

    You can do almost anything extra in place... such as 50 mountain climbers or 50 squat kicks again. You can also jog in place for 100 steps.

    Yes - a stair climber at the gym will work as well.

    Rock it ladies!

  • Stir-Fry of Pork with Vietnamese Flavors

    Ingredients

    * 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger
    * 2 serrano or jalapeño peppers, seeded and finely chopped
    * 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
    * 3 tablespoons fish sauce, divided
    * 2 tablespoons orange juice, divided
    * 1 teaspoon cornstarch
    * 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
    * 1 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed and cut across the grain into 1/4-inch-thick slices
    * 1 tablespoon sugar
    * 3 teaspoons canola oil, divided
    * 2 cups finely sliced onions, (2-4 onions)
    * 1/4 cup sliced fresh cilantro leaves

    Preparation

    1. Combine ginger, peppers, garlic, 1 tablespoon of the fish sauce, 1 tablespoon of the orange juice, cornstarch and black pepper in a shallow dish. Add pork and toss to coat it with marinade. Set aside to marinate for 10 to 20 minutes.
    2. Mix sugar, the remaining 2 tablespoons fish sauce and 1 tablespoon orange juice in a small bowl.
    3. Heat a wok over high heat. Swirl in 1 teaspoon of the oil. Add onions and cook, stirring, until limp and caramelized, about 5 minutes. Transfer the onions to a plate. Wipe out the pan. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons oil to the pan and increase heat to high. Slowly drop in pork and stir-fry until browned and just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the reserved fish sauce/orange juice mixture and the reserved onions; toss until the pork is coated with sauce. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve over rice.
