  • I usually plan my meals on the weekend. I'll pick out my recipes, add to the recipe builder if they are not already there, and then make a shopping list. The crock pot is super useful for meal prepping. I made a version of the salsa chicken mentioned above this weekend. I like to eat a portion of the chicken with rice and…
  • My boyfriend and I go to the same gym. A mutual gym friend introduced us. We enjoy working out together. We don't always go at the same time and have different fitness goals. A lot of the other regular members we talk to didn't know we were a couple. Dating someone from my gym has worked out well for me. We've been…
  • I've tried their pizza and enchiladas. I think they both taste pretty good. My boyfriend is not a fan. I take them to work and microwave. It has worked for me just fine. It's definitely not the same thing as pizza, but I like the flavors.
  • @JennJ323 - I just wanted to report back that I tried a version of your key lime pie drink - delicious! I mixed sprite zero with cake vodka and a splash of lime juice. Will definitely be one of my new go-to drinks!
  • The starting price for 1 hour of personal training at my gym in Missouri is $60.
  • Check Pinterest for ideas for sheet pan recipes, crockpot recipes, and casseroles. This week I made a chicken and brown rice recipe in my crockpot and an enchilada pasta casserole. I used the My Fitness Pal recipe builder to figure out the calories for each recipe. My favorite sheet pan recipe is lemon pepper salmon with…
  • 28, 5’5”, and 155lbs I started going to a women’s weight lifting class about 4 months ago and then started working with a trainer. The most I’ve squatted so far is 160lbs.
  • Sometimes I'll have toast with guacamole topped with a fried egg. I also tend to add hotsauce to my eggs no matter how they are prepared. Another option I like is to make a sandwich with guac, fried egg, cheese slice, and bacon.
  • I love cottage cheese. I like to add blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, banana slices, pineapple, apples, grapes, mandarine oranges, etc. Pretty much any fruit. Sometimes I'll add some chopped nuts like pecans. For a more savory option, I sometimes add avocado or guacamole. Not the prettiest looking, but I like the…
  • http://vegweb.com/recipes/lime-peanut-noodles I really like this recipe! I made the sauce in my blender (recipe said to use a food processor), but you could probably mix by hand if needed.
  • I use resistance bands as part of my glute/legs warm up. I use it above my knees for squats, squat pulses, glute bridges, and clams. I also place the band around my ankles for another set of exercises I do in my warm up. My gym has a few different sizes of bands, and I also found a set at Five Below for just a few bucks if…
  • I'm a member at a Title Boxing Club, and I absolutely love it! If your gym has a website, maybe check it out for tips for your first class or a description of the class. At Title, you do not hit anyone and no one hits you. You do a workout on the heavy bag. It's a cardio boxing fitness class, not actual sparring. The…
  • Yes! I love running outside. Being out in nature clears my head. I also love my boxing gym. Best stress relief ever!
  • I love GRRRL clothing! I also wear leggings from Reebok, Under Armour, and Victoria Sport. I'm lucky that we have an outlet mall in town so I have lots of options. You can also check stores like Dick's or Nordstrom Rack for more brands at decent prices. Right now I believe Victoria Secret is having their semi-annual sale.…
  • My boyfriend whose main form of exercise is boxing has had surgery on both of his shoulders in the past few years. I have learned so much about the shoulder, and how complex it is, just be being there with him throughout the process. He went through a series of resting, physical therapy, cortisone shots, PRP injections,…
  • I like sweet and salty combinations. For example, I eat cottage cheese and berries for breakfast all the time. I think my fruit consumption helps my sweet tooth. I also like to have a little something sweet after my dinner. Dinner is my biggest meal, so I can usually get by with a small something sweet rather than eating a…
  • I also use Plantronics Backbeat Fit and love them! I've had mine over a year. Great battery life, easy to charge, fit comfortably in my ears (which was always a problem for me with headphones). They've worked well for me.
  • An interesting combo I learned from kids I used to babysit - Fritos dipped in peanut butter. Sweet and salty delight!
  • Here are some of my favorite snacks: -cottage cheese with berries -apple with cheese -carrots and guac or hummus -100 calorie packs of cashews -100 calorie popcorn bags -protein bars (Quest bars cut in half work great) -Fiber one brownies -string cheese
  • Cuban Grilled Cheese Turkey Club PBJ
  • I usually do my grocery shopping and most of my food prep on Sunday. I'll pick out a few recipes of what I plan to eat for the week for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I'll make a shopping list with the items I need, and I'll check to see if I'm running low on any of my staples in the pantry. Once I get to the grocery store,…
  • @GottaBurnEmAll Yes! I love the peppermint Joe Joes!
  • I love those! I bought some earlier this week since they were on sale with the Christmas candies at the store. I treated myself to two pieces last night since they fit into my calories. I thought it was a tasty 150 calories
  • My favorite protein bite recipe is made with oats (1 cup, I like to process the oats so it's more of an oat flour - it gives a smoother texture), peanut butter (half cup), honey (1/3 cup), vanilla (1 t), flax seeds (1/2 cup), and chocolate chips (1/2 cup). Chia seeds and coconut flakes are optional. I made this recipe for…
  • I found a recipe on Pinterest for Hot Chocolate Cookies a while ago, and my friends and family love them! The texture comes out a bit like a cake brownie in my opinion. https://cookiesandcups.com/hot-chocolate-cookies/ Someone else suggested peanut butter blossoms. Those are delicious and fairly easy to make. My other…
  • The gyms are a franchise, so it probably varies from one gym to another. I bought a GroupOn to try it out first. When I signed up for my membership, the price was about $65 per month with a year contract. Since I've maintained my membership, I've been able to keep my price. I think my gym now charges more per month, like…
  • I usually work out 5 sometimes 6 days per week. Right now Title is my main workout, but I also run. I just finished up a half marathon training plan and race last month. During the heavier portion of the training plan, I just used Title as my cross training since I was running so much. Right now I'm running probably 1-2…
  • I've been a member at Title for several years. I love the workouts - it's the best stress relief! My gym has a great community, too.
