About eating a lot around TOM:
Patchy is right, we *may* eat more around O time, or right after. By 2 days before TOM happens, your body knows if you're pregnant or not and won't gear up for baby that way. KWIM? |

I know what you mean about working out in the heat!! I feel guilty doing a workout video instead of walking, but I just can't stand the humidity!

I've been really lazy about tracking tho I think I'm ok. I did the spin and body pump class last night and I'm beat. *laughs* I'm so lazy today, but weigh in tomorrow so I'm drinking lots of water. :)

Oh salted cashews... yum. I love them and the cinnamon almonds... but I save them for when I'm going super low carb and need high protein lol. Its disappointing to want a handful and get like... a thimble!
Body pump is fun, but definitely a challenge! Its an hour long and there are 10 "tracks" each one with a different song to go along with it, but they each correspond to a muscle group... so it goes something like this: 1. Warmup 2. Legs (squats) 3. Chest (chest presses) 4. Back (rows, clean and presses) 5. Triceps (kick backs or bench work, sometimes pushups) 6. Biceps (curls) 7. Legs again (lunges) 8. Shoulders (front raises, overhead presses) 9. abs (crunches, planks) 10. cooldown You use a bar with weights and each "Track" varies the movements in speed mostly... so sometimes you are doing "Singles" and sometimes you are doing really slow movements.... or "bottom halves" where you do only half the movement. It goes by really fast because you can sing along (if you can breathe)... and you can adjust weights to where you are comfortable. There are actually quite a few youtube videos of different tracks and songs that you can check out or create a playlist with and do at home with free weights. |

Oh, forgot to add...
Crunchy/salty replacement for kettle chips.... they make a low fat version, I don't know the difference in points. And, I like pop chips (in the health food aisle at my store) and/or Special K baked crackers (in the cracker aisle). I LOVE the sour cream and onion Special K crackers, yummm! |
MrsD I think you said you had the Coleslaw recipe? If you do, could you send it to me? looooove coleslaw!
|
I second the Special K Cracker Chips...but only in the sour cream and onion flavor. The sea salt flavor (to me) tastes too much like cardboard.
The Pringles Light chips are also pretty good. |
Well here's me being accountable for my actions.. not long after I posted my tracker last night (I hit 29 pts perfectly, too!), I totally succumbed to the munchies. I had a cowboy cookie @ 5 pts, 1.5 slices pizza @ 12 pts, and then I quit counting points- I also had a big handful of cashews, a handful of M&M's, and a piece of strawberry rhubarb pie w/ cool whip. Good lord. Not long after I felt the twinges of TOM cramps, so that might explain the over-eating.. but I wish I could trust my self-control. I'm just not there, yet. :(

My coleslaw recipe:
Simple Coleslaw 1 bag rainbow coleslaw mix 1 cup shredded carrots 2/3 C. fat free mayo 3 Tbsp apple cider vinegar 1 tsp dried dill weed 1 red, crisp apple Whisk together the mayo, vinegar and dill weed. Set aside. Put carrots and coleslaw mix together in one bowl. Chop the apple and add to the coleslaw mix. (You can make the coleslaw mix and carrots finer w/ a food processor, but I like it the way it comes). Add mayo mixture and combine well. Refrigerate at least 4 hours. Last up to 4 days in the fridge. Serves 4-6 people. 1 PP per serving. If you use reduced fat mayo it comes out to 2 PP per serving. |
