  • This is the first day in a long Time I ate at a deficit so yeah! Getting ready for T day today although I'm not hosting still have a lot of cooking to do. One thing I'm doing this year is making a Carmel apple crisp instead of a caramel apple pie which will save some fat and calories and my family likes it better and it's…
  • I love arugula! In pasta or with steak, in a omelette. and of course in a salad (with pear and blue cheese).
  • That was what my coming back post was about. I liked checking in with this group here and to talk about different things in addition to lifting. Like outfits with pictures (I've had to update my wardrobe for a new job in the las year), daily stuff that is happening etc. Recently the dust has settled in my life so I can get…
  • I'm up about 15pounds. Getting back to making fitness a priority, starting with getting 10,000 steps in a day and plan to start some lifting in mid November. Glad to see familiar ladies still here.
  • Hey this happened to me too. I meant to post here about coming back into group after a year gone, but it posted to a general thread instead. Can't figure out how to here on my iPad. quote="Pudding1980;34453670"]I'm here still. I've read through the last few pages and you all seem to be doing really well. I just posted a…
  • last night french dip with swiss cheese, roasted potatoes, green salad
  • Braised red cabbage, roasted potatoes, boneless pork chop and green salad
  • Thanks Miss Hiker Right now I am looking into a Oregon Scientific watch, monitor. Hopefully the will meet my needs....I post when I decide on something....
  • Jo I don't see the video Clips on Youtube that are on a CD he has out. I checked in out from the library, "Starting Strength" Mark Rippetoe...
  • Good for you, Next week I am looking forward to some ME time while my daughter is at day camp. We are staying in a cabin in the same park as the day camp so once I drop her off at 9:30am I am on my own until 3:30pm! Hiking, biking, reading, napping, whatever I want to do. I won't be home and compelled to clean etc.....
  • I don't break up the work outs, I can finish, including RAMP, in about hour. I do my stretching and rolling later in the evening. If time is short maybe do all exercises by less sets? 2 sets of each instead of 3....
  • That sounds nutty hot. MY DD had sport camp during a hot week recently and instead of hitting a park on 93 degree afternoon as planned they took the kids to see the Lego Movie. Which everyone thought was fabulous.
  • Not too chubby, I'm up 2 pounds from my recent low. HR is heart rate as in HR monitor. I have a HR monitor but the case broke so I am looking for a model that has GPS with a HR that will just up load my exercise to my diary. I don't really need a 24/7 thing so much so shopping around for replacement now.
  • I was watching Mark Ripptoe Starting strength for squat critques: Are you squatting below 90 degrees? Sticking your chest out with with elbows back? He has the lifter hold thier breath pressing up which braces your spine, maybe try that? Try not squatting down too far.
  • Beeps was there a white dress picture and I just missed it? I'm feeling chubby right now, some bad eating going on..... been busy staying cool, celebrating DD 11th birthday, family wedding, hosting family dinner (for 11yo birthday this next weekend), making modeling chocolate cats and mice for the cake...., Also…
  • I recomend "Starting Strength" an awesome resource when it comes to form issues.
  • I promised to make real dinner tonight and play nerf guns with my daughter tonight after work. I want to go a condition class I sorely need. What did I do that!?! Have a good night all. :happy:
  • Beeps you have the proper undergarments to go all white :laugh: Doesn't look like a dress you could with out.:blushing:
  • Yeah you definently don't look like my grandma! Very pretty table.
  • Thanks Medwest Good insight and details to think about. I am just in the early stage of figuring out what exactly I will do. Right mostly looking at a section between MT. Hood and Ashland but I may also consider hammering out a loop trip too. Safety is always my first concern and I would want access to good maps, etc. I…
  • Sounds like your body is responding nicely to the workout. That and managing you dietary intake will get you nice results. Consistency is key!
  • Rocky, sounds like an awesome holiday. We did a lot of hiking & bushwalking before kids. They sorta put a stop to it for a while, but we're planning on getting back into it this summer now they are old enough to hike a fair way without complaining too much. Eventually we want to work up to the Cradle Mountain hike in…
  • View all of Pmagnanifit's photos (7) Pmagnanifit Well I am looking for a hiking partener for the trip and for training. I can't remember, you live in Portland? I want to start logging training miles in area now.
  • Beeps the dress is HOT. I love it but personally I couldn't pull it off with my shortie legs. I am getting toned for an upcoming wedding in 12 days. I gained some pounds on my trip, no surprise, so now I am up 6# from my ulitmate goal. Right now I'm working on getting rid of 4 by July 19th, I figure they are new pounds so…
