Been eating at least one vegetarian meal each day. Last night was "healthy fast food" -&nbsp;&nbsp;juiced a&nbsp;carrot/pear/ginger juice and had&nbsp;a few flax seeded corn chips with homemade hummus. And wine. ;-).</p> <p>Did weights on Monday and heading off to do them again. One 40 min. hike so far and plan on at least one or two more by the weekend.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-week-of-march-30#post-1212378 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 19:00:53 +0000 Alassë 1212378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am walking again this week, and hit my lowest weight so far during this post-baby weight loss time. However, I've been eating too many coconut products and went right back up again. Baby steps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-week-of-march-30#post-1212323 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 17:26:19 +0000 Janet 1212323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ugh, I've been struggling too. Even though I don't own a scale, I know my weight is probably up a couple of pounds from too much winter indulgence. </p> <p>Even though I was quite active in TX on the ranch -- lots of walking, and a couple of runs in nearby parks and neighborhoods -- it's hard to eat healthy down there with a bunch of hungry men who are working manual labor all day and want burgers every night. We did go out for sushi a couple of times, but I'm not sure that helped my efforts either. Then, two days spent mostly in the car, eating fast food, during the drive home. Ugh. </p> <p>I'm trying to once again get back on track. At least the puppy is a good excuse to get out for a run every day, even if it's only a mile or two. I took her on her first run yesterday, and it went pretty well. Slow, and a pit stop or two, but it got us both moving. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-week-of-march-30#post-1212233 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 15:40:18 +0000 citygirldc 1212233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Now that the nicer weather is finally here, I've made an effort to get out of the house and be more active this whole year. &nbsp;</p> <p>Yearly plans: &nbsp;upcoming 10-miler race, May NYC bike tour plus a 10k race, and signed up for a half marathon in Philly in November.</p> <p>Weekly plans: &nbsp;I had&nbsp;a body assessment done&nbsp;at my gym including bmi (a little high) . My plan is to strength train 2x a week, along with taking classes cardio/trx/hiit classes&nbsp;and my usual runs. &nbsp;I really need to get this body back in shape because I was a bit lazy this winter and it caught up with me. &nbsp;(My body assessment was good: &nbsp;excellent upper body in terms of pushups and situps, but poor in flexibility. Hopefully that will change.)</p> <p>Until next time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-week-of-march-30#post-1212191 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 14:10:03 +0000 LACeleste 1212191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am determined to accept that my newly diagnosed&nbsp;degenerative disc situation (pain, tingling, weakness in both arms) is no joke and that denial and exercising like a lunatic are not helping.</p> <p>My goal this week is to do some online stretching videos and to maintain disciplined eating.</p> <p>I wish all &nbsp;of you success!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-week-of-march-30#post-1211950 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 04:23:51 +0000 anne 1211950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Am trying to fit in 3 runs this week - have done one so far and one weights session. The next run will start in about 45 minutes in my lunchbreak. My new aim is to break 25 mins on the treadmill for 5Km - I have done under 26 mins twice.</p> <p>Foodwise I have been lax. I felt that my body was needing to eat more, in the pre-menstrual stage of the month, but I was also given some gluten free biscuits (cookies to most of you) and it has only been 6 days and I have eaten about 9 of them! So the weight is up a little. But I can still fit into everything. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-week-of-march-30#post-1211771 Wed, 02 Apr 2014 00:11:25 +0000 annagybe 1211771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I went Portland for four days last week and it involved wine &amp; food, but somehow I managed to lose a few pounds. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-week-of-march-30#post-1211359 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 14:43:46 +0000 Mo 1211359@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Am determined to run today, no matter how slow, no matter how short. &nbsp;I can't take it anymore. &nbsp;Bringing plenty of&nbsp;water and kleenex and just going to do it. Then hopefully either Thurs or Fri I can do the 6 miler and then taper for a week and then race next Sat. &nbsp;<br />&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-week-of-march-30#post-1211131 Tue, 01 Apr 2014 03:53:49 +0000 MsMaven 1211131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bad week--so hard to lose, so easy to gain it all back. &nbsp;This coming week I will get back into my routine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-week-of-march-30#post-1209774 Sun, 30 Mar 2014 23:52:51 +0000 shedev 1209774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't have any new goals, just continuing to keep up with my workouts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-week-of-march-30#post-1209530 Sun, 30 Mar 2014 18:59:04 +0000 MsMary 1209530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gah.&nbsp; My goal for the week is not to continue eating like I'm on vacation, which is what I've been doing for the past month.&nbsp; Also skipping workouts like I'm on vacation.&nbsp; Argh.&nbsp; I've been running myself ragged, trying to do All The Things with my son while he's here, and the eating and the workouts have definitely suffered.</p> <p>At least last week we did an excellent job of eating pretty much the entire contents of the veggie box.&nbsp; I made an amazingly delicious beet and citrus salad, and we ate organic carrot sticks all week, and DS ate all the apples, and I eat kale every day, so that was a big success.&nbsp; Hoping to duplicate that success this week.&nbsp; Also I did well at abstaining from alcohol last week (until the Two Mimosa Lunch with the YLF ladies yesterday!&nbsp; )</p> <p>This week's goals:</p> <p>Minimum two boot camp classes and two trainer sessions<br />Eat the contents of the veggie box</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-week-of-march-30#post-1209426 Sun, 30 Mar 2014 16:34:54 +0000 Minnie 1209426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My week went pretty well. I did five (one-hour) barre classes and lost two pounds. <br />My triceps are very sore. I take classes from different instructors and the last three classes I took all had hard sets of tricep work.</p> <p>My goal for next week is to take a minimum of four barre classes, make the daily dog walk longer and stick to my diet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-week-of-march-30#post-1209406 Sun, 30 Mar 2014 16:17:41 +0000 Mo 1209406@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to admit to myself that, yes, I am sick. &nbsp;Been trying to deny it. &nbsp;No running since Monday &nbsp;I am going to lift at the gym in an hour with BF, and we lifted on Thursday. &nbsp;I have to rethink whether I can do my 10K in 2 weeks. &nbsp;I NEED to do a&nbsp;6 mile run&nbsp;this week, or I won't enter the race. &nbsp;It's one thing to cough and hack&nbsp;while lifting. &nbsp;I can pause. &nbsp;Trying to run is another story. &nbsp;Bah humbug. &nbsp;<br />Am up a bit on the scale, and food has been so-so since my trip. &nbsp;Need some fresh produce in the house. &nbsp;Grocery trip this afternoon. &nbsp;<br />I'd love to say next week will be 2 or 3 runs, and yoga and weights. &nbsp;I'll take half of that for a start. &nbsp;Healthy would be nice, too. &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-week-of-march-30#post-1209386 Sun, 30 Mar 2014 15:47:28 +0000 Kristin L 1209386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi everyone. How was last week for you?</p> <p>Mine went pretty well. I feel like my balance has been improving, which is great since I'm normally pretty klutzy. Has anyone tried anything from Enzymedica? I've head really good things about their Digest Spectrum, which is suppose to help with food intolerances.&nbsp;</p> <p>My goals for this week are to include yoga in with my daily workout and to take a few more extra walks in the evening now that the weather is getting warmer.</p> <p>What are your goals for the week? </p>
