hmmm then maybe it's just me. guess i just get enough water to stay hydrated while working out. then afterwards, and the rest of the day drink lots and lots of it.

but your right side cramps suck

good luck with it tomorrow

Good Mornng! It's 5:06 here, and I have already drank two glasses of water and my Myoplex shake. Today is leg day....we'll see how it goes.

Meal 1: Myoplex shake
Meal 2: Five eggs (four whites, one yolk) scrambled, apple
Meal 3: Cottage cheese, banana, cinammon
Meal 4: Sliced turkey breast, green beans
Meal 5: Chicken, apple
**once again, I had two square matzah crackers with pb & j**
Meal 6: Tuna, broccoli, sweet potato/regular potato


Gym was good today. Except that the music system was not working. So for a while there was nothing..then they turned the TVs to the local news. Not exactly the best thing...but better than dead air.

I did Legs today...went well. I guess. I hate lunges!

The stomach seemed okay today, but that may be because I was not running..just doing leg stuff.

Thanks for asking though!

Hi elvn. I always try to avoid drinking cold water. Whenever I go out to eat I ask for water, no ice. Our big Brita 'tank' is on the counter, not in the fridge.

Interesting theory though...

Oh, look who it is!

I know you've been busy girl, it's okay. Thanks for the kindness about the pics. LOL about the shoes, they're from Payless. I wish I had not worn them...I look like a total hoochie! Not saying that you would look like a hoochie, of course.

Blush, blush, blush, blush, blush!

Okay, I'm going to get serious here for a minute. I have three older sisters. My oldest sister lives in Israel and has been there for over 15 years. She is married with three kids, that's her home over there. As you can imagine, I am super-worried about her. I mean, I'm always worried about her, but now more than ever. My parent's immigrated to the US over 35 years ago from Israel. I have lots of family (aunts, uncles, cousins) there. In fact, my mom is there right now. My dad got back yesterday.

Not real point here, just saying that to some of us it's more than just a story on the news.

Ann, thanks!

Princess, thanks for keeping them in your thoughts.

dvlmn, I'm not 'sorry' that they are over there. Israel is a beautiful, amazing place. I would love to live there one day, but I don't think my husband would ever want to. We do plan to visit sometime. Anyway, it's a great place to live and work. Lots of energy and culture, all the things you like about the US with some extra stuff added.

I do hope they will be safe. Scary times right now.

sorry I guess I said it wrong. What I meant was, "sorry to hear they are over there with all the stuff going on right now"

so it's really that nice over there? I don't know anything about the area to be honest with ya

Oh, it's great over there!

I went about once a year until I turned 18 (until my parent's stopped paying for it).

I spend three months there during my junior year of high school. It was a special program for american kids to study there for one quarter. You didn't get behind in your classes because they had teachers over there teaching you the same thing. But we did also learn the history of the area. It was so cool because you would learn about something, then the next day actually go to where it happened. That was an amazing experience. And to think that my parents basically forced me to to. I didn't want to go at all. But I'm glad they forced me to go.

The last time I was there was August of 1997. For another one of my sister's weddings. Her and her (American) husband met while they were both living there. They have since moved to Florida, because of his job.

Anyway, it is a very beautiful place. Really. I don't have any digital photos, but I can try to scan some of my regular pictures when our scanner is working again.

Well, this was long winded, but it is a subject that is dear to me.

Good Morning All!

It's 4:57 here.

I am doing cardio at home today, since I have somewhere to be really early before work. I am experimenting with doing cardio on an empty stomach, since I don't really have time to eat before working out this morning. We'll see how it goes.

Slight change of plans. It was too cold here (about 40 degrees) so we decided to wait until this afternoon to walk/jog/run (intervals). I went back to sleep for another hour or so! Can you believe it? And I don't want any Canada or Northern people telling me that 40 degrees is not cold.

Meal 1: Five egg (four white, one yolk) omelette, apple
Meal 2: Cottage cheese, banana, cinammon
Meal 3: Turkey, peas
Meal 4: Five hard boiled eggs (four white, one yolk), applie
**1/2 piece matzah with pb & j**
Meal 5: Spaghetti with tomato sauce and chicken, two pieces of garlic toast (not the best meal)

And I did do my cardio this afternoon! We walked for about 25 minutes. Did some jogging intervals with it.

Miss LeDix,
I run here in Oklahoma all the way down to 35 deg. And it's damn cold. Makes my chest hurt from the cold.


But, Cardio in the early am before food, is the best way to burn fat. 20 min. on and increased/decreased intensity works great.

Give it a try........I'd be curious how you like it.
