Happy TGIF! Full schedule. Long day and finishing the month strong.
Cardio: jog/walk- 3 miles (350 calories)
Strength: triceps- rope pressdowns, overhead tricep extensions, dips, lying tricep extensions 4x12,10,8,6
Assessment Chicken, rice and vegetables for dinner.1 -
Weights: Lower Body
Food: Yesterday was my little girl's birthday, she wanted dinner at a local buffet, ended up putting away four plates of food, plus salad and dessert.
I was going to click the "inspiring" button but didn't want to come off as sarcastic.
That's impressive eating, @nossmf. I myself had Mazzio's wings, a slice of pizza, and three cinnamon bread things for supper. Then an evening workout on the elliptical, but of course that didn't make up for the junk-y dinner, followed by a brownie.
I think I need a tough love fitness thread with accountability. I don't know if my MFP friends can still see my food diary now that the newsfeeds are going away, or if they ever looked at it, tbh.
So is the idea we post workouts AND dinner? But not earlier meals, @ninerbuff ?0 -

Post whatever you feel you need for accountability purposes. Niner by default posts dinners, nothing says you have to post any food, or you can post more. Guess the only consideration, beyond remaining courteous, is limit yourself to one post per day, especially now if you intend this thread to replace your newsfeed.1 -
Post whatever you feel is necessary for you to stay on track, stay motivated, inspire, etc. I don't eat breakfast and lunch is usually the same thing (pho).DiscusTank5 wrote: »Weights: Lower Body

I had to look up dinaguan.
Sounds interesting. I might be too squeamish to try it, just like I still have a resistance to eating insects even though I know it's a good option.1 -
It's actually really good. Any time I've given it to friends and NOT tell them what it is first, they seem to like it.I had to look up dinaguan.

I was not advertising. I was trying to give members a place to interact because the newsfeed and all of the social stuff that helps us members is going away. Just trying to give members a safe place to land and something similar to a newsfeed. Does not benefit me it benefits all of us trying to stay healthy.2 -

Advertising might not be the right word, but it is a bit of a hijack of the thread. I won't clog it up any further with any additional comments on it. Good luck.0 -
