I agree with this... sometimes it's okay to splurge. but if you want to try and be a little healthy I would sugest... -no (or only one piece) of bread -start with a salad, dressing on the side no crutons/cheese -wheat pasta, if possible -and dont get a cream based sauce, like alfredo and if you want to be super good, you…

500, a day... 800 on thursdays nah, that sounds better :wink:

went to the gym this morning & I've been at work since....only a few mor hours & then dinner and then yoga!

I am not a professional, but.....I would say no, only because there is a ton of jumping around in it which could be really rough on your joints. You could probably modify all the moves, but I would sugest starting out with something a little more low impact, and once you drop some weight/get in a little better shape then…

I'm not really picky when it comes to chocolate!!! :love: :noway:

doesnt sound too healthy to me..

(I dont know anything about slimfast shakes or how to make them...) but if you're wanting to cut calories, I would suggest not using ice cream at all. Can you just use skim milk or non-fat vanilla/plain yogurt?

I have the Polar F6, and I love it. I've been using it for alittle over a year now and havent had any issues with it.

Maybe it was an important phone call :wink:

I teach spinning so that was my cross training, I also did yoga once a week and did some light weight training on my short run days.

Awesome!! I'm not sure about how long you've been running but my advice is to Run Run Run!! Just make sure you get your miles in. I didnt really use a training plan for either of the 1/2 Marathons that I ran, I just slowly increased the miles that I was running, about a mile each week. make sure you stretch and take your…

I dont count water in foods, just water that I actually drink. and I do count water that I add drink mix (K20/crystal light) to/

the 100 calorie snack packs - chocolate covered pretzels are wonderful!!

Hey pretty lady, sorry I just saw this!! :heart: :drinker:

Spinning is an awesome workout. I've been taking classes for years, and just recently started teaching it. I teach 3 classes a week and have seen HUGE changes in my body since I've been doing it.. it does amazing things for the legs!!! :love: :drinker:

Today I had 2 hard boiled egg whites w/Salsa, a small piece of prime rib, 1/2 a grape fruit, and of course.....Coffee :tongue:

I had some candy AND a piece of Cheesecake. :love: it was awesome. (the cheesecake was my reward for working so hard the last month..!! One of the guys that I work with and I had a deal that if we worked out hard all month, he was going to have a piece of pie w/ ice cream and I was going to have cheesecake at our Halloween…

wow.

thats how my class is, I only have 9 bikes, so I have to turn people away, and I HATE that. I'm told that they got me 10 more bike, but I havent seen them yet.....

I've been on Depo for a little over a year. when my doc told me all about the possibility of weight gain, I basically said 'I'll be damned it I gain weight b/c of meds' and I've lost (and kept off) about 20 pounds since I started it. you just have to be extra careful!

Spinning is a total leg workout (obviously..) I always walk out of a class with my legs SHAKING! at one gym that I used to take it at, it was on the second floor, and it was always a challenge walking down the stairs after the class. It has really helped tone up my thighs, which I :heart:

Welcome :flowerforyou: & good luck!!

I :heart: spaghetti squash, the husband is not a fan though, so we dont have it very often..

I've been taking spin classes for a couple years, and have recently started teaching them. I love spinning, it's an AWESOME workout and super Fun!!! (and you do get used to the seats!) :flowerforyou:

Like everyone said it depends on temp and distance for me... I HATE running with anything in my hands, so unless it's really hot outside or I'm running over an hour, I wont bring it, I just make sure I'm hydrated before hand, and drink up after the run.

I'm just finishing up my 5th week of P90X

Flintstones Chewables :tongue: Love them

Hey guys, I havent been around in a while... it's been pretty busy over here and I havent had much computer time. But I have been working out!! Just today I hit 300 miles that I've run so far this year!! Only 200 more and I reach my goal! woohoo! :smile:

yeah, I'm going to iraq... dont think I'll be doing them there :laugh: but in about a year, I'll start looking for another one to do!!!

How did I miss this thread?? I did my first tri last November, since then I've done 5 !! I did a sprint last weekend, and I have one more (an olympic distance) coming up next month! unfortunatly I'm leaving Hawaii the end of August, so I dont know when I'll be doing another one :grumble: :flowerforyou:
