Sassyz75	Yippie! three of us now! I am totally renewed & into it now.. I was such a slacker last week. I got my cardio in this morning & last night I did arms & abs... Getting up after a long weekend was TOUGH Posted 5/31/05 9:35 AM
DebG	Posted by Sassyz75 Getting up after a long weekend was TOUGH yes it was! I am so glad that we both did it though! Feeling good today! This will be a good week for us! Posted 5/31/05 10:46 AM
Sassyz75	yes I am hoping so!!! i brought all my food. tonight I will do legs/abs and tomorrow morning treadmill again. I am going to do cardio 4 days in a row to make up for my badness Posted 5/31/05 10:55 AM
Kierasmom	Posted by DebG You can do it Jenn! Thank you! I did ok today. I ate ok, not great but I did alright. And I turned down cake at my office. Plus DH and I went for a nice 30 min. walk. It wasn't an intense walk but it's a start. Tomorrow night I'm going to do some arm weights. Posted 5/31/05 10:50 PM
usuk2004	Posted by Sassyz75 yeah it's hard to go all out on your cheat day and feel good the next day- it's amazing how it weighs you down. So true. I had a big chocolate cookie and a cappucino yesterday (it wasn't my cheat day, by the way ) and I felt so crappy afterward. Trying to get back on the wagon, but it's so hard to get started...been eating well pretty much throughout the day (except for the cookie & capp!) but I haven't been planning well enough to eat 5 or 6 times during the day, so I'm only having breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Remember the goal for each day is to not strive for perfection but rather strive for progress! Keep it up! Posted 6/1/05 7:13 AM
Sassyz75	I am so proud of all of us- we are doing so well!!! This morning I exercised again- that's 2 days in a row. Tonight I'll probably do my leg exercises and Abs.... Posted 6/1/05 9:24 AM
DebG	Did you go to the gym again this morning to make it three days in a row? I went this morning...I'm not feeling great though, was just an ok workout. My scale went up a little...I think that is what is bumming me out. Posted 6/2/05 7:35 AM
Sassyz75	no I didn't... my allergies were kicking my butt this morning. what a slack... i have school tonight too (ugh, i hate the summer session)... I'll just have to do cardio tomorrow & saturday morning and even sunday too even though it's my free day. blech Posted 6/2/05 10:18 AM
Kierasmom	When I did BFL the first time I did a workout every free day and gave myself off on Fridays. I know that's not what he suggests. But I liked working out on the day that I ate whatever I wanted. It helped me a lot. Posted 6/2/05 8:31 PM
DebG	mmm just learned of a nice lunch item Whole wheat tortilla, two tbs pizza sauce, one tbs low fat mozarella cheese...put in oven for 7 mintes (just enough to heat it up and melt the cheese) Not bad I tell you. Posted 6/4/05 1:34 PM
Sassyz75	that sounds really good I've been REALLY slacking this weekend... (i sit here eating baked doritos.. BAD).. Anyway, back on the "horse" tomorrow... Posted 6/5/05 6:04 PM

Sassyz75	OK. Back on track. Woke up early and got my 20 minutes of cardio in .... ate a bar for b-fast. Posted 6/6/05 10:00 AM
MrsProfessor	Do you think nuts and fruit are a good snack? I have a hard time finding proteins that aren't meat. I don't really care for cottage cheese, unfortunately. Posted 6/6/05 11:43 AM
Sassyz75	You can do a piece of low-fat cheese with an apple... Posted 6/6/05 11:51 AM
Kierasmom	or some tuna and wasa crackers. Nuts are ok if you have them like once a week but don't make it your everyday snack. I had wanted to start everything back up again this week but we were away this weekend and didn't get to go food shopping. So I didn't get to eat that great today. But I'm going food shopping tomorrow during lunch. I need to get my water in. I did a brief arm workout tonight. I need to ease myself back into the workouts. I don't need to pull anything and be out for weeks. How did everyone else do today? Posted 6/6/05 11:03 PM
Kierasmom	What do you guys eat for breakfast each day? I really don't care too much for eggs and I can't do cottage cheese. So I'm having a hard time getting protein in. I'm going to pick up some protein powder to put in my oatmeal but I don't want to do that everyday. Any suggestions? Posted 6/7/05 9:45 PM
DebG	Jenn- The only think I eat every morning is a cup of yogurt. Then two hours later I eat a body for life bar (ok its actually a zone bar because I think they taste better and the nutritional value is about the same) That usually gets me through the morning. Posted 6/8/05 6:58 PM
