  • Monday - Jillian Michael's 30DS!  I love to hate her.

  • I've been walking a lot.  I need to get back into strength training.  The lack of protein my body was absorbing made me lose muscle mass like crazy.  And I also used it as a reason to not weight train.  What is the point if I'm not keeping protein to build muscles right?!  I'm 1-2 lbs, depending on the day, from my goal weight, but it is all flub.  Time to get toning!!

    Diet wise, I've been really good about my sodium and calorie intake, but really bad about sugar.  I'm not usually a sweet tooth but apparently if you have to give up salt, sugar is the next best thing!

  • I did well today.  I went to the gym right after work and was on the treadmill for 40 minutes.  I ran a mile of it, in quarter mile increments.  After dinner, I am going to take a mat Pilates class. 
  • Um, my nerves are so shot I feel like throwing up 24/7....does that count?

  • I've been eating well, but coming straight home to clean and prep for the Halloween party after work.  Cleaning counts as cardio, right? lol

  • Oh yea diet. I've started my green smoothies again for breakfast, but added a protein powder - GNC Lean 25. So far it's working pretty good.  I wasn't hungry for my snack until 11 (I eat/drink breakfast 530-6am), so I only ate half my lunch at 12 the othe half instead of my snack. 

    I put 1 banana, 3/4 c 1% milk (might try almond milk soon), 1 scoop protein powder (vanilla) and fill the right with greens (spinach now, might get kale when I finish the spinach).  I think I might start adding the strawberry I froze this summer to it next week.

    I've also resisted all our office party food, cakes, brownies etc since we've been back to work.  We've had 4 so far in 2 weeks.  I only had grapes and strawberries today for boss' day resisting, apple fritters, muffins, bagels, quiche and donuts.  I'm calling this a WIN!

  • Good job @mana8503!  That's total will power right there!

    I've been eating ok during the day but I mistakenly bought a pint of coffee ice cream the other day and I've been indulging in that every night since.  I haven't gotten back to the gym yet but I'm hoping to go this week, if not then for sure next week.  I don't feel terrible about that because every day has been filled with chores or errands, so it's not like I'm just parking it on the couch. :P

  • I went to the gym again this afternoon and did 3 1/4 miles on the treadmill, running 1 1/4 of it.  I skipped Pilates yesterday and Tuesday though.

    1 cookie (Lofthouse) = 160 calories... that's 45 mins walking to burn off (from your MFP).

  • I went to the gym this morning, 3 miles on the treadmill, ran 2 of them!  I am up to half mile running increments.  I am going to try to run a mile straight on Monday or Tuesday, depends which day I can get there.  I am proud that I went to the gym 3 days this week.  A big improvement for me!
