I do. Any suggestions? Sometimes I'll do 15 on treadmill and 15 on the rowing machine.

I need to check those out for weekend workouts! Thanks for the suggestions!

I do swim right now and when I'm able I join a water aerobics class. I love the water exercises. So easy on the joints. My challenge is when I'm by myself in the gym. What do I do to break up the monotony of the treadmill/elliptical/rower? There are people who can stay on those machines for close to an hour. I'm bored by…

Thanks for all the suggestions. As for why I don't walk outside: I live in Texas where the temps at over 100F even at 7p. Hahaha! It's brutal out there.

I'd have to go KFC drive-thru. I like their grilled chicken with unsweetened iced tea and a small coleslaw (hold the biscuit). If McD's I'll ask for a quarter pounder (not the meal) with cheese, extra tomato and lettuce. Unsweetened tea. And I don't eat the top bun. My doctor has me on a high protein diet and I have to…

I'm rather lazy. I buy the tetra packaged Premier Protein shakes and Muscle Milk from Costco. Easy to throw in my bag every morning. I add flavored instant coffee to the chocolate shake and drink over ice. That's my version of iced mocha. I'll add instant coffee to Muscle Milk, too, and add some nutmeg and cinnamon (also…

They are so convenient for me. I'm usually not a breakfast eater. Food in the morning has always made me nauseated. But I'm trying to be better about not skipping meals. I love grabbing a chocolate protein shake, adding some instant coffee for flavor, and drinking it over ice.

I allow myself to step on the scale weigh no more than twice a week. Monday morning is my weigh in day. I'll weigh myself a second time during the rest of the week if I feel I'm becoming lazy with my food intake.
