morning all. rod, i''m glad to hear you are going to be a bit more zen about the tests, good for you. marcy kudos on 1 month anniversary of 100 lbs!! losing a few more lbs in one month is still amazing success, you might not want to hear this but i have heard sometimes that people say the last lbs are the hardest to get off, so your weight loss might slow a little over time as it continues, but don''t get discouraged. 6 lbs a month is a lot but over time even something like 4 lbs a month adds up as well.
so the muffins last nite came out REALLY yummy. i posted the recipe in the wwt healthy recipe thread. rod, i used tart dried cherries in them so they reminded me of how your scones might taste, but in a more bran manner hehee. really yummy, i am looking fwd to having one later today.
breakfast this morning was a bit of a change, 2 pieces of whole wheat toast with smart balance and honey and then a very small bowl of sliced strawberries and blueberries. snack will be a cherry applesauce muffin, lunch will probably be the southwest kashi entree i like (or maybe soup or something, i haven''t decided yet), then fruit/fage/yogurt for snacks this afternoon. after work i''m hiking with my mom again, my legs are still sore from tuesday so that should be fun (haha ouch)...!!
congrats AG on 40 lbs woman! pg, kudos for maintaining quite well at a good point for you.
oh and sharon...i do upper chest arm exercises, on the machines more than anything else...but i also have 5 lb weights i use sometimes at home. what types of exercises are you doing? i really don''t feel sore anymore when i do arms, i have to jack up the machines to like 60 lbs on things like the press and butterfly kind of things, at home the 5 lb weights are not even a blip on the workout radar for me, i probably need 8 lb''ers if i want to do more at home. could be that you just don''t really have much upper muscle right now and just need to build it up? keep at it for sure.
hope everyone is having a wonderful day!
