I'm still really sleepy, though - agreeing with Mo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-713#post-1304030 Tue, 15 Jul 2014 16:00:03 +0000 shedev 1304030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sort of in the same place City Girl, my weight is stable but I'm less lumpy and my clothes are fitting better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-713#post-1303929 Tue, 15 Jul 2014 14:28:52 +0000 citygirldc 1303929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi all. I'm trying to stay active (mostly indoors)&nbsp;as much as I can during this heatwave in the east coast. &nbsp;&nbsp;While I haven't seen much of a weight loss, I have been noticing my clothes fitting better due to my new workout program, plus I just started training for the Philly Half in November. </p> <p>Workout program is tough with 6 days on and 1 day off. &nbsp; M, W, Th - cross train via strength training; Tue, Thu, Sat, and Sun: short runs followed by a long run on Sunday.</p> <p>Hopefully, I'll look pretty decent by the end of August as we will be going to Quebec City for vacation. Can't wait.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-713#post-1303898 Tue, 15 Jul 2014 13:58:55 +0000 shedev 1303898@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Moving really is hard. You never realize how much stuff you have until you need to pack it up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-713#post-1303404 Mon, 14 Jul 2014 23:39:43 +0000 Carla 1303404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Moving is hard work! Morning to night cleaning, unpacking, sorting, etc. every night I fall into bed exhausted. Quality of food has been great. Access to beautiful produce at a farmers market, so I am happy about nutrition. Have plateaued at 140 lbs for 5 months now, so this may be the new norm? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-713#post-1303397 Mon, 14 Jul 2014 23:28:50 +0000 shedev 1303397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, Ms Maven. Pre-emptive weight management, that's pretty awesome thinking ahead. It's so hard to keep motivated in the dog days of summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-713#post-1303371 Mon, 14 Jul 2014 23:00:25 +0000 MsMaven 1303371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A busy week of sort of maintaining. &nbsp;I'd still like to lose those last 3-4 pounds. &nbsp;Big events coming up in August--reminds me of the first time I went on a cruise. &nbsp;I'd heard that aboard ship it was non-stop eating, so I lost 5 pounds in the couple of months before and came home my right weight. &nbsp;</p> <p>It's been a long time since I've been able to do something like that. &nbsp;The closer I get to goal, the more my motivation falters. &nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks, Shedev, for checking in and checking on us. &nbsp;</p> <p>This week I'm working on Motivation! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-713#post-1303171 Mon, 14 Jul 2014 19:24:03 +0000 shedev 1303171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kelly, it was more boredom snacking at work</p> <p>Mo, it's really stuffy here lately, not gonna be an easy gym day for me.</p> <p>Dianthus, you are really getting a lot of stuff done. Are you taking a cart or walking when you golf?</p> <p>Janet, I hope your back feels better soon.</p> <p>Anne, nice workout plan. I love those cooking competition shows too.</p> <p>gardenchick, sometimes it can take a bit to get back into our routines. Yeah for fresh summer food.</p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-713#post-1302930 Mon, 14 Jul 2014 15:36:18 +0000 gardenchick 1302930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Still recovering from being out of my routine last week! I did run 3x this week as usual. Meant to go to the gym on Thurs but somehow left my clothes at home...fail! Planning for a more consistent week this week.</p> <p>On other fronts...I love to cook, have been enjoying the wonderful fresh summer produce. Yum! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-713#post-1302847 Mon, 14 Jul 2014 14:08:29 +0000 anne 1302847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I went to a few gym &nbsp;classes&nbsp;last week and this morning did pump and balance. Yesterday I went for a run - haven't been running much lately, perhaps because of the rain and cold.&nbsp;<br />My plan is to do 2 pump classes a week (one is a half class) a body balance, RPM, pilates if my schedule allows it and 3 runs (2 short with intervals and one longer)<br />&nbsp;We'll have to see if that happens!<br />Foodwise I have been way too inspired by Masterchef australia, but it will all be over in a week or so....</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-713#post-1302768 Mon, 14 Jul 2014 12:27:49 +0000 Janet 1302768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My eating habits always take a dive when I'm in Texas (BBQ! fried okra!) but I'm still active when I'm there. Temps well into the 90s, so I took brisk sweaty 4- mile walks instead of running, and I swam a bit. </p> <p>My back has been hurting a little since I left TX so I am easing back into biking a long ride. But I can tell it's better today, so I'm looking forward to resuming my routine! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-713#post-1302735 Mon, 14 Jul 2014 11:37:21 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1302735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have managed to stick to my low carb plan except for a bowl of watermelon chunks one evening and a few very small glasses of wine. &nbsp;I ate far too many nuts though so have decided not to weigh myself for a while.</p> <p>Although I haven't been "working out", we are still doing yard work and I am golfing once a week when it isn't raining. &nbsp;We put together a 350 lb gazebo on Friday evening/Saturday morning.&nbsp; I swept the patio and the garage&nbsp;with the big garage broom (hard work) and washed the windows on the back of the house, and put together the outdoor patio and coffee tables. &nbsp;There was more but that is what I remember. &nbsp;</p> <p>It has been raining a lot here. &nbsp;It is causing a lot of golf games to be cancelled. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-713#post-1302504 Mon, 14 Jul 2014 01:33:14 +0000 Mo 1302504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Must be something in the air. &nbsp;I was too tired yesterday once I got rained out of lap swim (yet again) to do an alternate workout. &nbsp;Got in the rest of my training days, though. &nbsp;And I stuck it out in the gym with broken A/C this morning for my indoor bike session. &nbsp;BF couldn't take it and left. &nbsp;It was pretty stuffy. &nbsp;<br />Food has been alright, as has the wine. &nbsp;Less than 2 weeks until my race. &nbsp;Not sure how my routine will look afterwards. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-713#post-1302451 Mon, 14 Jul 2014 00:29:11 +0000 kellygirl 1302451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's the thing about working out--it makes you hungry, doesn't it! I'm not a regular participant here (or on the forum these days) but I enjoy seeing how everyone manages to keep forging ahead. I'm pretty consistent and have been working a little harder this summer trying to keep DDs on their work out schedule. As a result, I find myself SO tired. I've been alternating kettlebells and running with one rest day per week. Each work out is about 40 minutes and I'm so happy to be done by the end. Hoping the two day rest this weekend will re-energize me for the upcoming week because all I want to do is sleep! Diet is pretty much the same as usual. We aim to avoid processed food and too many snacks. I'd like to lose 5lbs so that is something I'm going to start thinking about--maybe. Thanks for keeping me motivated even though I don't often post here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-713#post-1302394 Sun, 13 Jul 2014 23:15:49 +0000 shedev 1302394@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tried to post this morning and something went wrong.</p> <p>I snacked a lot this week, think it was because I worked a lot. I retooled my exercise plan for next week so we'll see how it goes.</p> <p>How was your week?</p>
