I've been wanting the Zumba for the Wii - which is on my Christmas list. I LOVE Dance Dance Revolution on the XBox, so I figure this should be just as good a workout.

Good morning all! Looks like clear skies for flight here in NC. 450 calories this morning while working out with my trainer. Will be going back this afternoon to get more cardio in. I took all of last week off due to tearing my abdominal muscles while doing planks with my feet up on a bosu ball....so none of that for a…

I get it at Trader Joe's or Whole foods. Haven't seen it at any regular stores around here, but I haven't checked the higher end ones, either.

I make my breakfast and lunch before I leave the house, so I log those in the morning. If I don't eat something I bought, like a snack or something, I take it back off. I usually know early afternoon what I want for dinner, so I will go ahead and log that then, too.

My goal is going to be 350 minutes this week. I need to get back on track. Last week, I only went to the gym 1 day, and I tore my ab muscles on my right side during a sessin w/ my trainer (hence, the only day I got to go was the day that happened. :angry: ) Dr. said I could go back to light exercising today, so I will…

Just sent you mine! I didn't even log in here yesterday, 5K yesterday morining, then marching band competition to go watch and didn't get home til after 2am. Blah!

Me me me! Count me in! I have GOT to do something to keep me accountable and having to count my minutes is just the ticket!

Sorry I have been MIA for the past week. I am in a slump :grumble: I get this way every so often. I'm one of those instant gratification type of people and it makes this journey to health VERY hard for me at times. But, I'm back on track - as of tomorrow. Yeah, i should probably buck up and have started today, but I didnt'…

Yup :) It's a Women's Only 5K for Breast Cancer. Didn't think I was going to get in, but they still had room. Were out of t-shirts though :( so I'll be the only on there not in pink probably, lol. There are over 2,500 registered for it.

I'm ready! I'm actually running in a 5K on the first day of the challenge, so lots o' burning that day :)

How about one of these? “Man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.” ~ Matthew 4:4 “The kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.” ~ Romans 14:17 If I were to get one scriptural/Christian based, one of those would be it.…

A few of my favorites: 1/2 avocado t tbsp honey 2 scoops sweet cream flavored protien powder (tastes like white cake mix) 1 cup water ice 1 instant coffee packet 1 tbsp no sugar chocolate syrup 2 scoops sweet cream flavored protien powder 1 cup water ice 1 tbsp no sugar chocolate syrup 1 banana 2 scoops sweet cream…

Morning all! I'm 75.08 miles in now :) "Enter tunnel under hedge to reach The Old Forrest. Path Disappears." On a side note, we are not too terribly far from needing to start a new thread...when that happens, whoever starts it should send the link to the active ones in this thread so we don't lose the new one!

Fabulous!

I have the same issue, and I have to say, the foam rollers work really well. My trainer actually has me use them as part of my warm up before my sessions with him too.

Added 3.1 miles yesterday. I'm just about 64 miles in. "Farmer Maggot's lant meets the Causeway to Bucleberry Ferry. Ride in wagon."

I'm at 60.69 miles now :bigsmile: Did 2.67 miles on Wednesday night on the bike, then 3.17 miles the next morning walking. Not sure if I'm doing any miles today because I have a 5k tomorrow. I'm just about to the end of the "Edges of the fields worked by Farmer Maggot"

Since I am not a fan of milk chocolate at all, I have to say a resounding yes to this one, lol. Used to be all you could find is milk chocolate and now dark chocolate is popping up more and more. One of the guys here at work keeps a candy basket on his desk. When he refills it with the Hershey's Minis, he brings me al the…

I got stuck for 4 weeks when I first started going to the gym, but the next time they did my measurements, I had lost 7% body fat and quite a few inches. My clothes are fitting a lot different and I know I am building muscle, because I see it. Do I get frustrated when the scale doesn't move? ABSOLUTELY. But I'm not going…

Yay! Ok, about me: My name is Lynn. We live in North Carolina. I am 40 years old and I work in the Regulatory Affairs Department at a food flavoring company. Yes, all those big words you can't pronounce in ingredients - we use them :laugh: I'm maried - we'll be having our 21st anniversary on December 10th. I have 2 kids -…

I live in North Carolina, in the central part of the state. I was born in West Virginia. We moved to Pennsylvania when I was 2. Then, we moved to Oklahoma when I was 14. Moved back here when I was 19 when I married my hubby. I work in the Regulatory Affairs department of a food flavoring company.

I did 14.68 miles on the bike yesterday and 3.1 miles on the elliptical this morning, so I am at 54.85 miles :bigsmile: "Still in the trees, they stop for lunch. Their singing is cut by the cry of a Black Rider, and they leave." Hope everyone is doing well!

I do net carbs. I try to keep my total (without subtracting fiber) around 50. I like to keep my net between 35-40. It works for me. That being said, I have had a cummy morning! I was supposed to meet my trainer at the gym at 5:30...I was there, he wasn't, UGH!!! :grumble: :angry: But, I did 3.10 miles on the elliptical in…

Good job!

Thanks for the welcome! dittiepe, your recipes look really good!! Especially the pumpkin bake - I LOVE pumpkin. Any idea how many servings for that one? May try the pork medallions this weekend also :) By your webpage title, I take it you are in Pittsburgh? I grew up in Uniontown (35 miles south) and my hubby has family…

Good job!

Good morning all! I hope I can join in with you.,.,..I am doing a modified Atkins plan. I did Atkins about 8 years ago and lost 56lbs. I stopped caring and gained it back. But now, I am on a mission!! I want to get to my goal by my birthday next year. I would love to be under 200 by New Year's but not sure that's gonna…

I keep a box of vanilla chai tea at my desk at work. It definitely helps not only with appetite, but it's a pick me up when I am yawning at 2pm. :p

Fantastic job!!
