Hi Everyone:
Well, last week (and so far this week) have been great for my exercising. I'm up to 50 minutes and 3.30 to 3.50 miles a day speed walking/jogging on the treadmill! I want to "see" a difference now. :confused: I am noticing on the scale, that I seem to be staying at 156.5 and not gaining, but I "feel" like I should be at least 153 by now. I know....keep wishing, huh?
Jakeswoman: WTG
on the loss! My neighbor (she's 40 something) plays Racquet ball 3 to 5 times a week and she might be a size 6. She looks like she's in her 20's though.
In fact, she hit black ice and flipped her car (it rolled 3 times) and she walked away without a scratch, not even a sore muscle. I told her it probably was because she is in such good shape, not to mention she also had someone looking out for her.
Dannimac: Welcome! Just to give you a couple ideas what I have for breakfast;
I have either Nulaid egg beaters (fluffed up in the microwave), with sharp cheddar veggie cheese, (those two products work best for me since I'm lactose intolerant.
Anyhow, I have 1/2 C. eggbeaters (spray a bowl with pam or something, put in your eggs/egg beaters) and nuke it for almost 2 minutes and then I put a slice of cheese on top and it melts and I really like it. I'll have fruit or even stewed tomatoes for my carbs. Also, low fat cottage cheese with fruit (fresh, frozen or canned, I drain and rinse the canned fruit) with almond slivers is great also. That's all my husband will have for breakfast during the week.
Good luck with ths Zone, I'm sure you'll find it becoming easier after a short while.
Ann W: I did toss out those hotdogs. They just were nasty. In fact, they got on the slimy side two days later, so I had no choice. I know I'll just ENJOY a REAL hotdog and make up for it elsewhere.
I'm still at 156.5 and I've been doing great exercising and I'm not doing too bad eating wise neither. I guess it all just takes time.
Well, my daughter will be getting off the bus in the next hour and I'm going to relax and read for a while.
Have a great day everyone and Take care!
