Great Job Guys....your making me look bad

Today I did my p90x work out.

For breakfast I had my shakeology with almond milk, a little peanut butter, water and a banana.

Lunch I was bad...We had a meeting at work and all they ordered was pizza. That's my weakness!!!!

Dinner I had Wegmans new super pasta. Whole Grain!

Keep up the good work.

I would love to join....
Breakfast: Wallys light yogurt and peak protien granola
Lunch: Homemade turkey chili 1 oz fat free cheddar cheese
Snack: Protein bar
Dinner: Spinach salad with rapsberry vinegrette and turkey breast chunks
Snack: fat free cottage cheese

Went to gym:
35 mins on arc trainer
15 mins on tread mill
30 mins weight training

Does walking the pups on the lead to train for show count?

Are we also tracking weight loss?
I always do under 1300 calories and portions are small- I had a gastric bypass so that is easy for me now, it is the gym that I just started 2 weeks ago and it is the one that I have let go away 3 times and have the hardest time with.

Lets go fellow YT lets stay committed!!

What are some good snacks? That's my problem, I like to snack alot, but I try to find healthy-ish snacks. I just need some good ideas. I am not a veggie person unfortunately. I try, I really do. The only way I'll eat veggies is in soup, like Campell's or etc. I'm so weird. I'll eat a whole bowl of vegetable soup but won't eat veggies.

What about the Special K diet? I love cereal.

I agree! Last year, I had started drinking a TON of water and noticed weight loss pretty soon. I had to pee SOOO much though. That was definitely something to get used to, lol. I can't ever get myself to get 5 meals per day, but I've always heard this is the key.

Do you like fruit? Or nuts? Sunflower seeds?

Best thing we did was buying a treadmill, exercise bike and home gym. Now we can work out any time, was a bit expensive at the moment but we don't have to pay fitness studio fees for the long range.
I found it helpful to set a certain time a day when you will work out, like an appointment, otherwise I'd had a thousand excuses.
I also love pilates and belly dance, that's great for working the abs.

SophieKatesMom · 09-20-2010, 06:01 PM

Wish I could help withe snack question but I am not much of a snacker. I am a grazer and will eat parts of my meals all day and usually stop around 6:00 pm.

Water is the trick for me, I drink it all day long after my one cup of coffee per day. Giving up soda was so hard for me but I did it a few years ago and vowed after that struggle not to go back.

If I do snack I have string cheese made with low fat milk, or the little dill pickles (love both).

Kaylee0520 · 09-20-2010, 06:07 PM

I am going to be honest I have a treadmil and I never use it!!! I like having the opportunity to have someone telling me what to do, like a home work out program. But I need to switch it up, and often so I stay committed.

suda · 09-20-2010, 08:18 PM

I have just rejoined the gym so I go 5 days a week and have weekends off
Monday is Abs class
Tuesday Centergy
Wednesday Power
Thursday spin
Friday curcuit
Every time I do warm up 15 mins on ecliptical or rower
Walk/Run with my little George every day and now I have changed my diet too Fruit and Vege and loads of it and not too much carbs, protein of some sort with lunch in dinner + water water water.

Anyway been at it for 2 weeks and have already lost weight, find it hard counting calories so I just make sure I have only healthy food options available but this last weekend I must admit I had a few drinks,(High calories but oh it was nice)

SophieKatesMom · 09-21-2010, 04:42 PM

Tonight was my spin class, it was a speed class so I got a really good workout.

yorkielady06 · 09-21-2010, 04:50 PM

Did not workout today had too many Dr appt and then conformation class...So the only workout I did was walking/trotting around in the ring with Karma...Will hit the gym tomorrow for sure..
Only ate breakfast: light yogurt and protein granola
and Dinner: Salad with chicken breast and vinegrette

Thinking I might want a snack and I want bread bread bread....but I think I will behave and have cheese and half an apple

Beya · 09-21-2010, 04:51 PM

I love doing Turbo Jam, Tredmill and my station bike its the best for me go hard for 2 weeks off on weekends and Im sure to drop 2-3 lbs by the second sat. I love it I do about an 1hr 30 min each day. It goes by fast when you find a good workout that works for you...

suda · 09-21-2010, 05:23 PM

I went to the gym last nite but I think I'll give the rest of the week a miss at night because I didn't realise but its a free class week so it's really crowded, went into power class last nite and there really was no room left, packed in like sardines after class I thought i'd do a bit on the tredmill but they were all in use as well, don't think it's fair when I pay $50 a month

Anyway that's my moan for today sorry

lynnelily · 09-21-2010, 06:07 PM

My son is a certified personal trainer, but he trains the big body builder types for competitions out in Cali. He is in excellent shape and has done modeling for Pro Muscle for the last 2 years. He wrote my a diet for me when I ask him on my 50 th b-day and I lost 62 lbs in 5 months. I went from a size 16 to a 6 that was 3 years ago. I quit doing everything after losing my Holly dog when I became depressed and then my excuse was I got to busy with my pups. I gained back 20 lbs since May and started my diet again yesterday. You should see my puppies faces watching mom on the treadmill running for an hour. It felt good. I was taught not to count calorie but to watch the types of food I ate and to eat clean. Rule number one drink 8 bottles of water a day. The foods I ate were healthy lean meats, fish, egg whites, nuts, low fat cheeses, veggies (no white potatoes), some fruit, he limited the types to apples, pears, and berries, oatmeal every morning and sweet potatoes every other day and add olive oil and coconut oil into my meals daily and the hardest thing no breads. My work out routine was cardio 6 days a week every other day free weights. I'm very disappointed in myself for going back to my old ways so count me in.
