  • I don't have any longer recipes, but I plug my crock pot into a timer so it doesn't come on until mid-day. I have it set up in a cold room (about 7C in the winter), so I'm not too worried about leaving meat out at room teperature.
  • I'm looking for new ideas too! My standards are: chopped green apple, cinnamon & nutmeg pecans, maple syrup & cinnamon almonds, currents & cinnamon ...yes - I do put cinnamon on almost everything.
  • I log it as aerobics and either low or high impact depending on the class. The class I took last winter was really challenging, and this fall was pretty easy. Same instructor and location, but the average age of the class also went up by about 30 years.

  • Look at your local library as well if you want to try the video before buying. I use the library website to have my requests delivered to my tiny local branch. Rfeminder to self: stop by on my way home to pick up New Rules of Lifting for Women :)
  • Your blog is amazing! Very inspirational.
  • Go for clothing size! My fittest and fattest were the same weight, but two sizes apart.
  • I can't believe she kept trying to dig that hole! I did ask that question once to my teacher - who was not pregnant. The only out I'm giving myself is that I was SEVEN! But it left enough of an impression that the question will NEVER leave my lips again.
  • I've used 2lb ankle weights before and I'm a similar size to you. I was just thinking this week that I have to start that up again. I like the idea of using a backpack too. I'd make sure that your back has a good chest/waist strap if you are going to use much weight. I also walk my dog up and down a nearby hill - tuckers…
  • I don't have any pics, but my co-workers and I do Body Revolution on our lunch breaks! We don't do it every day - but try for 3x a week. Not seeing a ton of results in weight loss, but we are MUCH stronger than when we started. The lack weight loss is likely due to our eating habits - which is why I joined MFP!
  • Thanks for asking the question! I was trying to figure it out too!
  • I was wondering the same thing! I'm a bit of a sugar/chocolate fiend, but even on the days I behave myself my sugar was really high. I was replacing candy with fruit so I guess that would explain it. I guess I'll just try to ignore the sugars.. unless that candy habit starts back up!
