WHAT UP "B"!!!!
sounds like the holidays went well for all of you.
there is nothing better than having those that u love around for the holidays.

keep up the hard work and the good eating. im a firm believer that every meal should end with a good piece of............. chocolate. ha i know what u were thinking. i always have a sweet at the end of the night and look it how good i look, oh , on second thought dont take that advice.

anyways good look on all the fun in the new year.

Hey, end of the day sweets are ok, just the right ones. I read somewhere the brain is programmed to crave sweets after a meal, but don't remember why. That's why the SF jello will always have a place in my pantry.

Society and restaurants have programmed us to want dessert after meals.

It's more than that. It is a natural biological response. I think it is leftover from when we were monkeys and used to eat fruit to get vitamins and hydration, or something like that.

But society doesn't help.

I think its our subconscious body response to gain fat so we can survive starvation.

...how about all the above?? hehehehe...

Monday went fairly well, we didn't have any gym time..but went hiking to find some good spots for turkey hunting, we have both always wanted to do it, so we figured this would be a good year we found several good spots, and even heard some clucking in one spot the season starts in March, and we are set! hiking was about 20-30m maybe more...

diet was so-so...started out with leftover pizza, and a protein shake, then on first break I had WW bagel with Salmon, 2nd break was 3oz. imitation crab. after work I had a huge protein bar with some yogurt. after our hike I had a big chicken salad with FF ranch

today is looking good so far...had a small salad before work, and 3oz crabmeat, 1st break will be WW bagel with tuna. 2nd break will be yogurt, and 3oz chix. I also have a protein shake to sip on through the night. pre workout will be a protein shake and maybe a yogurt. and for my last meal I'm having this wonderful looking premade chicken fried rice by Contessa....it looks super yummy, 360cals ...we shalll see

be back later to post workout!

Hey B! All is looking well in here. It makes me laugh when you write that you are 135lb, im like 158lb so below 150lb is so far off for me! Oh well, Katt's idea of throwing all the junk food out is a good one. Me, i left all the choccies and biccies at home when i left Scotland - so my Mum and Dad are busy getting fat as we speak!

thanks all!

may have a few more cals today than normal....storm woke me up early (only 3.5 hr.s of F*^* sleep!) and have to go into work early so I decided to go ahead and do 30m on the treadmill.

meals look good....got up and ate a WW bagel with FF cream cheese, now I'm getting ready to eat 4oz chix with .5 cup green beans before work. first break will be a salmon cup and a pudding. 2nd break will be 3oz chix and .5 cup green beans. 3rd break will be 3 oz. imitation crab and a yogurt. gonna fit a protein shake in there somewhere. after work it's a shake, and for my final meal Mexican Turkey burgers on WW buns and 1c. of green beans

you guys are great

got in a 30m walk outside Wednesday morning before all this and storms was suppose to do legs Thursday morning....but got a few bits of bad news and really didn't feel like getting out of the house at all

I got up today (friday for me ) and did a circuit for my legs at home....and it was killer....I tried not to go overboard (too late!!) cause we are going to the club saturday night! (which means I will get cardio....I dance the whole time we're there which is about 4 hrs )

2m treadmill, walk, level 10
lunges x10
very wide split squats x10
SLDL with bands x10
calf raises x10
1m bike
2m treadmill, jog, level 1

repeat for 3 sets no rest in between

the enzymes the liver produces my friend...a 1/2 an apple after every meal with carbs help to replenish it and keep you from craving the sweets. i also get away with SF jello or a small amount of yogurt. helps the mind, body, and sole!
