Have you exercised today?

[snowbeltchick]

I plan on skipping weights tonight and doing just cardio instead.

[lesee]

you're absolutely right

my "no fun diet'' consists of eating healthy, only whole wheat, brown rice or quinoa for carbs which I almost always try and have before 3pm, tonnes of fruit and veg, watch the portion sizes, no added sugar -  that kind of stuff. It's nothing set, it's just a very (plain) simple way of eating! lol. Difficult to do when you have a ridiculous sweet tooth like myself.

I know far too well the sweet tooth problems!!! I can work out and make healthy eating choices all day and then ruin it with one brownie or cake or cookies!!! I wish I could kick my sweet addiction for good!!!! Have to keep trying my best and get back in a good routine!!!

My diet strategy has been to eat well during the week and be somewhat more relaxed during the weekend.  It is more sustainable for me, but it does mean that the weight comes off more slowly.  I am only 1.5 lbs to my goal with 5 weeks before we leave.

I like the idea of being more relaxed during the weekend.  I hear ya about the sweet tooth!  I am known for having a tbs of nutella out of the jar!  Perry is the 30 Day Shred doable?  I have heard that Jillian can really push it!

If I was able to cut out baked goods I would be much more in shape!! Not to mention, my new cupcake hobby!!  Might have to put it on a hiatus until October 22nd lol

No gym today but plan on doing an hour of cardio tommorow- 15 minutes walk, 15 minutes run, 15 minutes bike, 15 minutes high impact eliptical.

Hey Brides

 

I started back on my eating helathy/working out kick on Monday.  I also joined www.myfitnesspal.com where I have been tracking everything I eat plus my exercise.  If anyone wants to join, my username is shaquita724.... add me and we can be updated on each other's progress.   So far so good... my wedding dress came in today so that is a little extra motivation for me.

I do think it is, but I would start with low weights in the beginning.  I like that it's only 20 minutes a day, but it does focus a lot on strength - and there is no breaks. It's 10 days on Level 1, 10 on Level 2 and then 10 on Level 3.  So it is an everyday thing, but for 20 minutes it's not that bad. I am still on Level 1, but decided to actually add a little cardio to my life - interval running (Couch to 5k ) 3x a week to help speed along the process.  Boudoir shoot in 30 days!
