'almost the big day exercise thread' check-in 4/30

ok, I'm back on track, after yesterday's mishaps....

FH and I exercised last night (14' step aerobics with 12 lb weights... gotta love the Firm!) And today I had a salad for lunch.... no carb

won't lie though... tonight we're having leftover pasta A little more carb than I should have, but at least the rest of the day was very good... that should minimize the carb effects...

so, how are you doing?

Re: 'almost the big day exercise thread' check-in 4/30

I did upper body weights last nite....along with crunches & sit-ups.....going to my Taekwondo class tonite...

Re: 'almost the big day exercise thread' check-in 4/30

Today was my first day back to the gym in two weeks!!!! I hate it when work is busy b/c I don't get a chance to work out

I did a half hour on the treadmill on a 15.0 incline at 4.0 mph. Then 4 sets of leg raises to work on abs!

Re: 'almost the big day exercise thread' check-in 4/30

Re: 'almost the big day exercise thread' check-in 4/30

I have 2 weeks left till the HM, and this past weekend was a wash!
It was my little cousins birthday yesterday...so of course I had pizza, pasta, a cupcake.. yup real fat ***..
I set my alarm for like 7:20am to get up and go to the gym, since I can't go later.. and I hit the snooze button like 3 times!

Today I've eaten... 3 egg white, fiber one bar, carrots.. and gonna have a yogurt now for lunch.



oh! Go to thedailyplate.com

I just found this last night. It's free to register, and you enter your weight, height, your activity level, and how many lbs you want to lose a week. It tells you how many calories you should have a day.. then you can enter everything you eat by doing searches and it deducts the calories for you!
And you can enter your weight in daily so it tracks your loss/gain.

Ok, time for me to join this thread! I need to get my arse in gear!!!! I just called my leasing office and signed up for the gym in my building. FH and I went food shopping last night and bought all healthy food - no ice cream for me anymore. Tonight we have our last Pre Cana so we are going to start the exercising tomorrow.

Re: 'almost the big day exercise thread' check-in 4/30

i ate nothing but c rap yesterday (but it was good! ), so I'm being good today and am going to a step class tonight. I went yesterday too so I guess I wasn't too bad...

Re: 'almost the big day exercise thread' check-in 4/30

I had a cottage cheese double for breakfast and a WW meal for lunch! Then I did 17 minutes on the treadmill and 15 minutes on the bike! Now it's back to work!

Re: 'almost the big day exercise thread' check-in 4/30

I was bad on Saturday, but I ended up working out 5 days last week so not beatting myself up about it. I need to work out tonight and stay on the same track as I have been. Its getting a bit tough with the modivation.

Man I need to get by butt in gear
Today:
shredded wheat and a banana for breakfast
salad(with grilled chix, cucumbers, olives, avocado)
snack- small soup

And I have a soccer game in two hours. that is a great workout!

---

be careful with that shredded wheat... especially if it's frosted... that and grapenuts were MAJOR factors in both me and FH gaining weight!!!! To me, they're better than ice cream but I'm completely unable to eat only the recommended serving size

i messed my diet up by having 2 sandwhiches yesterday one for lunch than diner. ugh! but i went to the doctors today and i gained a pound since ive been on my diet! how the hell is that possible, ive been like on a strict diet and lost nothin!

Re: 'almost the big day exercise thread' check-in 4/30

I was pretty bad this weekend didn't get to the gym...attacked the chocolate fountain at FHs fire department dinner...didn't dance all that much (usually I would burn a ton of calories on the dance floor- but the dJ was NOT good.)

I did get a little bit o f esercise yesterday as my sister and i went to Ikea and had to load two big heavy boxes into her tiny mazda...there was a lot of lifting and sliding, and lifting again, and bending. I was exhausted!

i may go roller blading in a few minutes...but I've been getting killer sinus headaches all weekend and feel another coming on, so we'll see.

Otherwise, its back to the gym tomorrow, wed., thurs and Friday!!

Oh, and today I had oatmeal for breakfast (1 packet of plain w/ a sweet and low and a sprinkle of cinnamon) and a cup of tea w/ 1 equal, no milk. Lunch was on the go, i ate a few pistacios, a lmonds and cashews in the car on the waay to a meeting and a diet pepse. Haven't had dinner yet...but I had some plain popcorn (i pop the kernels in a plastic lunch bag) after work.

OK-I'm motivated to go rollerblading now

Re: 'almost the big day exercise thread' check-in 4/30

I really need to get focused now...
Went to the gym with FH yesterday and had a great time in my step class.

I had oatmeal for breakfast, salmon and steamed veggies for lunch and i think a chicken salad sounds good for dinner.

The real key is ignoring the leftover Carvel ice cream cake in the freezer

Re: 'almost the big day exercise thread' check-in 4/30

Ughh I'm PMSing and I hate it!
I teach from 8-4 and then work a job 4-10

but I had WW bread with reduced fat peanut butter for breakfast
90 calorie granola bar for a snack
zucchini and mushrooms over brown rice for lunch
100 cal pack for snack
pasta for dinner
and an apple

I cannot wait for this semester to be over so I can get to the gym during the week!
