I no longer drink shakes after my workouts. I will eat a lean protein and a complex carb within 45 minutes of workout. Light tuna packed in water with Triscuit crackers Turkey or chicken breast (not lunch meat) with 1/2 an apple If my workouts are closer to dinner I make sure that dinner includes 20 - 30 grams of protein…

I spend anywhere from 15 - 60 minutes in the gym depends on what I'm doing, how I'm feeling, and what other activities I have going on for the day. 15 minutes is not too short of a time in the gym, depends on what your goal is.

Yes, I get this quite often from coworkers. Some are "concerned" and don't want me to lose any more weight.

Skinny jeans and boot-cut are my favorite. I also wear jeggings from time to time. For the summer I wear pedal-pushers. I can't pull-off capri's because I'm 5 ft tall and they just look like pants that are flooding.

I guess I'm a wimp. I don't run outside until its 70+. The hotter the better. I give up running from late October to May. I admire people who run outside when there's snow on the ground and it's below freezing, that is true dedication.

I workout at my company Fitness Center, Sallie Mae. I also go to LA Fitness - Fishers, Lawrence, and Glendale. I live not to far from the Washington St area. Maybe once it gets warm we can have some outdoor workouts together. I prefer to get my runs (cardio) outside, treadmills are a torture device for me.
