    I choked on the bread-I busted that first thing! Oh well - here's to todays challenge...


    Good jog last night - completed a trail that I have only done intervals on so I was very happy with myself. Probably hit the elliptical today for a good 30 minute quicky workout.

    don't feel so bad. i ate a bunch of crackers and kept telling myself 'this isn't bread this isn't bread' but i ate half the friggen stack! it is so breadlike!!!:angry:

    Yes you can buy they frozen without any seasoning or you can buy them fresh as I do, sauce them then freeze them.

    You ladies should check allrecipes.com for some AWESOME recipes. I swear by that website. You can search under healthy recipes for "under 300/200/100" calories or by low cholesterol, diabetic, etc. YUMMY recipes on there!!!!!

    Speaking of yummy, I just had a delicious sandwich for lunch-tomato, avocado, cheese, salt and miracle whip light-DELICIOUSNESS!!! I am in a much better mood after enjoying it :laugh:

    Re: staying under cals. I found that since I cut out bread a couple months ago, it's been easy to stay close to 1200 cals a day. Bread and pasta oh and cheese, are my weaknesses and will easily put me over. The problrem I'm having is eating all the exercise cals. Before I worked out yesteray I had consumed 1046 cals so I forced myself to drink a glass of 1% milk before working out which brought me up 110 cals but then I burned 710 cals on my walk/hike and had to eat something before going to bed. I drank a glass of chocolate milk and had a 100 cal bag of popcorn but that combined is only 210 so I ate 1 1/2 cup of pineapple but couldn't eat anything more. My deficit was huge!

    710 cals?!?! Woah..how long are you walking/hiking for?! That's intense! (<---and I don't know why it put what I just typed in a quote) :laugh:

    I walked for 90 mins. We didn't take the dogs or baby this time so we were booting it up the mountain. We usually do a 7.2 km walk but last night we went a different way which I haven't charted out on google maps yet but I'm pretty sure it added at least a km and a half. It WAS intense but fabulous! I love walking when my allergies aren't acting up. :tongue:

    You're comment caused me to double check my cals burned and I realised I misquoted myself. I burned 678 but with the remaining cals leftover from not eating all my 1200 left me with 710 cals to eat before bed. Still a lot I think.

    Thanks Nickytoo :smile: My day is getting a bit better.

    Check in: Took my puppy on a 30 min walk this morning than did a nice 20 min session of yoga. The walk was about 10 min longer than usual, and I'm going to have to call it a day on exercise cause I just feel sick today!!!: :sick: Drinking lots of water as usual but still..yucky!!! Maybe a cool shower will help. I can't tell if my body is sore from lifting or if I really am coming down with something. NO FUN!!! Sorry if I'm whining today, girls! :cry: I really am getting to be in a better mood!!

    sounds like a good plan to me :)...healthy dinners can be a pain in the bum to figure out sometimes...

    and btw i did good with the exercise challenge last night and now im just waiting for 10:30 to roll around so that i can weigh myself...

    what are peoples thoughts on a baby eating flaxseed? he wanted some of my oatmeal and i gave it to him not remembering it had flaxseed and oat barely or some s**t in it :ohwell:

    GOOD JOB CHRISSYH!!! :drinker:

    Ugh weigh in did NOT go good for me. I gained 4 ounces. Went from 130.4 to 131.2. Hopefully it's just water weight. Although I DID lose a 1/2 inch in my butt!! That's good and bad...I like my butt, it's cute and little, I don't want to lose it-it's my GUT that needs to go and is being stubborn!!!! :sad: :mad: Back to 2-a-day workouts!! I WILL lose weight...I WILL lose weight!!!!!!!!!!:bigsmile:

    I have a dial scale so it's not that precise. Last week I was exactly 165. Now I'm between 164 and 165 so I'm going with 164.5 as my weight.:tongue:

    You went up four ounces. It isn't necessary to start working out more. It cound be you have more "waste" in your body. You'll probably lose those four ounces next time you go to the bathroom. You're pretty close to your goal weight like me so you can't expect to lose every week. Sorry, if it seems like I'm lecturing. I just don't want you to worry about the four ounces when it's probably not fat gain. :flowerforyou:

    LOL haisangirl and jbuerer!!!! Sticky bowel syndrome...now that just sounds sooo uncomfortable!! :laugh:

    You're probably right, jbuerer, however it's been 2 or 3 weeks since anything has really changed so that tells me I need to be MUCH stricter on my food (I threw out a whole plate of whole wheat cookies this morning to avoid more temptation :sad: ) and push myself harder....which kinda makes me mad because I've really been busting my bum these last two weeks working out. :grumble: ah well...just keep swimmin', eh?

    ive been working out really hard too, i did an exercise challenge with the crazy canucks group last week that was pretty much to see who could do the most exercise, i am sore all over and feel like i am bloated and out of shape, but i think our bodies will thank us for it later. sometimes it takes a little bit of time to see a big improvement. keep swimmin

    Have you thought about doing the opposite? I've heard that having a day were you go over your calories can help break a plateau or you could try calories cycling. It could also be that you end up with all of your exercise calories to eat at night. You could try planning your exercise so that you can space the calories though out the day. Personally, I eat higher calories every day and use exercise for mose of my deficit and I've never really had a plateau. Just some suggestions that may help. I want to reach your goal too! :bigsmile:

    Have you changed what you're doing - sometimes a totally new exercise will help....if you've been walking - add jogging, if you've been on the elliptical - run or swim......just some thoughts.
