Same here - I did watch it last night because I love that new trainer, Dolvett, but am feeling kinda negative around what they did with dividing the age groups last season and have seemed to have done this season.

I like to watch for what exercises they are doing and want me some of those giant floor ropes they have!!

I used to love to see what kind of exercises they do. That giant rope would be fun & a great workout... but you would have to keep it away from Gracie or she is gonna wanna play ;)

Ok, now I have to watch, just to see what y'all are talking about!

i always watch the biggest loser. I miss Jillian though!

I tend to watch while eating, which kind of defeats the purpose :)

Zimmeh 01-11-2012 01:05 PM

Good Afternoon Everyone,

I got my exercise in today! The shipment for L'Occitane showed up at 9:45a; I ran up the escalators to the stockroom and had to run down them to open the store by 10a. Needless to say, it felt great :)

Have a great day,

Zimmeh

I don't watch it. It causes me stress to watch people get yelled at. I understand the reasons behind it, but I am way too gentle a person to be yelled at like that. Even when I am at the gym and the instructor raises their voice it sets me on edge.

Cowboi 01-11-2012 05:21 PM

Dang....Today was leg day at the gym. Had to drag myself to the car!!! Gonna hit the shower, as soon as I muster the energy!!
Not sure what Im having for dinner yet.
Looks like evweryone is doing fantastic!!! Keep up the good work!

I'm really loving the www.loseit.com app. It makes it so simple to keep up with my food for the day. It scans bar codes on snacks, etc and puts them into a database of foods. It also records exercise and adds the calories burned and adds them to your calorie allowance for the day, then tells you how much over or under you are for the day.

My day:

Pre-Workout snack: Carnation Instant breakfast w/fat free milk
1/2 Clif Peanut Butter Toffee Buzz Bar
Post-Workout snack: 1 scoop whey protein w/amino acid powder
1/2 Clif Bar
Breakfast: Hardee's Double Egg Biscuit

Snack: Hostess 100 calorie snack cake
Jello Fat Free Chocolate Pudding

Lunch: 2 egg salad wraps on whole wheat tortilla

Snack: 1 large banana

Supper: 1 1/2 cup pinto beans
2 cups mashed potatoes
1 1/2 slices turkey meatloaf
8 oz fat free milk

My daily calorie allowance is 1833
I swam 1 hr 50 minutes 1635 cals burned
Gross Cals allowed for day 3468
Calorie Intake 2748
Net Calories 1113
Under Allowance for Day 719


Today was a bit different as we only cheat one day a week. Miss Pink is in the midst of painting our dining room, kitchen and office with the help of one of our best friends. We had Hardee's because she was knee deep in prepping the walls. My Mama supplied our supper because she knew Pinky was too busy to cook. Mama's food is cooked fairly healthy but her portions are a LOT bigger than we normally eat and I'm not about to let good country cookin' go to waste!!

Good morning healthies!

Pleased to say my head totally screwed on "straight"-lol, in regards to my eating, that is.

Continuing to lose weight and stay on track.

Breakfast, egg white omlette with fresh spinach & tomatoes and 2 slices of Trader Joes incured turkey bacon (30 cals a slice, 1.5 grams fat, 150 mg.sodium). Delish!

Have a great day(f).

Zimmeh 01-12-2012 08:39 AM

Good Morning Everyone,

This is what I will be having today:

Breakfast:
Egg burrito that has:

One egg
Flour tortilla
Pace Medium Salsa - just a dab
Shredded Pepper Jack - Sprinkle
Seasoned with a dash of garlic salt and Mexican Chile Powder
8oz cup of SoyMilk
6oz cup of coffee

Lunch:

Healthy Choice TV Dinner

Dinner:

Black beans and rice

Snacks:

Handful of Triscuit crackers
Medium Salsa
Handful of Olives

I got a compliment lastnight from my coworker. She said, you could see how much weight I have lost! I was speechless and thanked her :)

Have a great day,

Zimmeh

Good morning!!!!

I LOVE reading all the menus people post on here. It gives me all sorts of ideas.

Yesterday was our cheat day...We didn't do a work out, did drink our water and ate..steak, baked potato, salad, we even went nutz and shared a bloomin onion. But, what i noticed was that this steak house's bloomin onion wasn't greasy like Outbacks is. I'm thinking it may have been baked instead of fried.

The good news is neither of us gained any weight yesterday!!!!! Didn't lose either but after all of that food, i consider us lucky. I'm seeing a cheat day at least once every other week in our futures. HOORAY!!!!!!

It's back to our healthy eating again today. Tonight is either baked chicken or Belle soup. The jury is still out on that one.

Keep up the great work and have a healthy Thursday all!!!!!!!!


PinkieLee 01-12-2012 09:28 AM

Good morning all you healthy folks :)

I see lots of continued success with eating & exercise... that's AWESOME! Way to keep the momentum going!!!

My weigh in was today... lost 2 pounds!

Well, we went out to eat last night, because I just didn't feel like cooking. But, we did good and went to Applebees. They have a list of WW meals and/or meals under 550 calories which is an awesome way to treat yourself to dinner out without going overboard.

I had the sirloin steak with grilled garlic shrimp, with double mixed veggies (no potatoes) so I'm sure I saved a few more calories there, too. Then to cheer her up a bit, we went to the casino for about an hour. It was fun to see her relax a lil' bit & smile.

Meals planned for today:

Breakfast:
Yogurt with strawberries & granola
coffee with a splash of vanilla creamer

Lunch:
a Lean Cuisine meal
sliced cucumber & tomatos

Dinner:
Grabbing a Subway sandwich before I head to the 2nd job.

Snacks:
94% fat free popcorn and/or WW string cheese & an apple

She is leaving to go back to Houston to be with her mom tomorrow, so I have absolutely NO excuse why I can't get my butt to the gym or get some kind of exercise in! I KNOW the only way this weight is gonna come off faster is if I work out. GAME ON!

Make it a great day y'all :)

starryeyes 01-12-2012 09:57 AM

PinkieLee- Wow that's awesome!!

Yesterday went over my points by 2, but I have 12 activities saved and I had not dipped into my weeklies at all... So I'm not too worried.

Today, I was having a bad morning, didn't feel like cooking breakfast so I went to Starbucks for a skinny cinnamon dolce latte and spinach feta wrap (10pp total). But, when I was there I saw my friend Tori who I haven't seen in forever! Sometimes I think things are just meant to be :-)

Now, I am gonna get my butt up and walk! Yesterday I ended up falling asleep in the middle of the day and missed my walk. Not sure why I was so tired.

Lunch, baked fish and vegetables. Dinner, ground turkey vegetables and rice.

I packed an apple and light string cheese for a snack.

I am looking forward to a great day!

Smiles and hugs to all!

foxyshaman 01-12-2012 02:32 PM

I go tomorrow for my first weigh in for the new year. I dead stopped during Christmas. It felt good to stop. But, it was not good for my "OMG have I gained weight" self. I am sure I have lost weight, but more importantly I have changed shape again.

I have been to all of my classes since the 3rd and even thrown in some extra... for fun. Gee do I know how to party or what?? Probably more of the "or what". My clothes are all fitting differently...yeah me.

But... biggest grin like ever... I am getting triceps!!! Ganesha is more than just wiggling/jiggling now. I still have lots of skin left over on those arms, but wwwhoooohhooooo progress. I can even do tricep pushups now and don't lay on the mat thinking "are you f*cking kidding me".

Anyway... PinkieLee 2 more pounds gone forever. That makes this little fox very happy for you. Especially in light of what you and D are working through. You have my admiration.

Have a great day everyone!!

Hi healthies :)

Two steps for good health today....

Booked my blood draw for Monday....I hate it...I'm phobic...I stress about it...and, being diabetic, I need it. So, I'm getting it done.

Also, went and joined the local Curves. Yep....I did. I decided that part of my hesitation about a gym is that I'm simply not comfortable in the co-ed gym environment without a partner. So....women-only Curves....here I come. Three times a week, on my way home from dropping Rooster at school.

Can I get a Woot Woot? :cheesy:

I did not have time for an omlette this am, so I tried something different.

I am eating far less carbs and increasing my protein but wanted my favorite hot cereal this am. I took a bowl of Trader Joes organic multigrain cereal, with 4 grams of protein (190 cals, 1.5 gm fat) and as it cooked, stirred in the equivalent of one egg white for more protein.

I couldn't taste the egg white, it made it extra fluffy and it was very good.

I did forget to weigh before I ate and have been weighing daily but have not had any missteps this week.

Hope everyone else is doing well on your own path!
