Extreme Veteran 544 Shawboro, NC | Subject: RE: DOWN for the Holidays! Yeah... greens and I don't do well together. I eat pickles, jalapenos (which are supposed to be red, BTW), green beans, and Granny Smith apples. That's about it. |

Extreme Veteran 544 Shawboro, NC | Subject: RE: DOWN for the Holidays! At lunch, I was able to get some gym time in... 15 minutes on the exercise bike. Dunno what sort of wattage I was putting out, but I maintained a 110+ RPM cadence with the bike set to "random." Good ride. That resulted in only 5.76 miles. Then I jumped on the treadmill. Same "random" program, which randomly varies the incline. Max incline I saw was 4.3%. For the first 5 minutes, I had it set to 5MPH, then 5.5MPH for the next 5 minutes, and the last 5 were at 6MPH. As much as I hate training on a treadmill, if I can get myself to doing 7.5MPH for about 25 minutes straight, I'm pretty sure my actual run will be pretty killer for a guy my size.
As for kilted photos... the kilts are still packed away. Tomorrow's mission is to find them. |

Master 1531 TORONTO | Subject: RE: DOWN for the Holidays! Well I had some greens yesterday but I wouldn't describe them as the better options... celery & romaine - likely 3 servings. Need to buy some of those dark green ones! |

Champion 14677 Bronze member | Subject: RE: DOWN for the Holidays! turtlegirl - 2012-11-06 11:07 AM Down 1 pound, finally! Anyone have any good smoothie recipes? Yea!! My morning one is a scoop of whey protein powder, 1 cup of plain yogurt (prefer Greek), 1 cup frozen fruit (any kind, you can mix it up- I freeze lots of seasonal fruit and use it), 1 oz cherry juice concentrate (for arthritis- it seems to help). You can add other stuff from there. Often we put in a cup of kale, or spinach. If you use the frozen fruit, you don't have to add ice. Edited by ceilidh 2012-11-06 10:24 AM |

Master 1531 TORONTO | Subject: RE: DOWN for the Holidays! So I met a friend for lunch at this place downtown and I had pre-checked the menu to see if there were any good selections and nope! So in the end I went for a salad - greens, avocado (does that count? it's green!) etc but ya 925 calories later. I have a feeling this week will be a maintenance week if I'm lucky!! I'll have green broth for supper  |

Member 170 Fall River, WI | Subject: RE: DOWN for the Holidays! Eating has been going good for the last few days and I have been getting my greens in. All that may come crashing down this afternoon. Where I work is also a polling place. They ordered too much food for the poll workers and gave the rest to us. We got back from a call to find 2 XXL pizzas sitting here, one being my favorite pizza. A pizza that has white sauce with feta cheese, onions tomatoes, spinach and mozz cheese. It was what my wife and I used to order on "cheat" days. Now I have to stare at 2 of them sitting in our station. If I was to eat a piece at least I would be getting some more greens..... |
