I thought a lot about my goal for today. My goal is to have a fruit and/or vegetable with every meal or snack. What's your goal?
I tried to get on here earlier, but I allowed my day to overtake me. My goal was to not work through my break today like I did the rest of the week and get outside and walk. It was an hour later than I planned, but I did go out and take my walk. I hope you achieved your goal today Mrs.mouse! - Duchess73  293.7 #649 5-17-13 5:26PM Like  Reply

I was thinking about starting a daily goal challenge. The idea is that you can share your daily goal and the results of the goal. Maybe it'll get me thinking and motivated.
I like this idea! Daily goals are so important! - LisaMouse7531  408.8 #316 5-16-13 5:55PM Like  Reply

I had to go to Oahu yesterday for a meeting and I'm proud to report that I still stayed pretty much on track (although didn't do Jenny all day). Ate Jenny breakfast bar on the plane, then was fortunate to go with the person that was supposed to order the lunches so I got to get a salad for myself. The hardest part was the after "drinks and pu-pus" - just had one glass of wine and only a few bites of food....not too bad. - msdizmaui  518.6 #224 5-16-13 1:02AM Like  Reply

Welcome! Start by making small goals like jogging for 5 minutes then slowly work up to longer distances. There is a great training program by Jeff Galloway on the runDisney website.

Hi there! I think I said this on your post that was in the Hub the other night, but a lot of people start running with the Couch to 5K program, and then pick up the half marathon training from there. Good luck! Remember to set goals, stick to a reasonable plan, and feed your body well: if you're going to run, your body needs fuel! A lot of people try to cut their calories way low and end up burning out because they don't have the energy to keep training. Eat healthily and fuel your runs! - Spoonful_O_Sugar  435.7 #283 5-12-13 9:42AM Like  Reply

I'm feeling very motivated today. I hope I can make this feeling last all week. Also, has anyone ever cooked with spaghetti squash. I picked one up and am not sure the best way to serve it.
I tried one once and it was a major failure (and it was supposedly a "can't fail" microwave recipe). I'd like to hear tips/suggestions on this one also. - msdizmaui  518.6 #224 4-29-13 10:48PM Like  Reply
It's been a while, but I cooked it once. I put it in the oven on a baking sheet. Cut length wise and seasoned with Olive Oil, salt & pepper. Then you can use a fork and it will shred. Maybe search Pinterest for some good recipes. I cant remember how long to bake it in the oven. - Fanatic4Disney  257.9 #924 4-29-13 11:39PM Like  Reply
I've never cooked one myself because I can't stand it, but this is how my mom always made spaghetti squash when I was a kid. - Spoonful_O_Sugar  435.7 #283 4-30-13 7:22AM
I put it into the steamer on the stove wait bout 7-10 minutes an then fork shred it out onto a plate. I squeeze a Meyer lemon and a paper thin bit a butter with lemon pepper and herbs sprinkled on it. Maybe a dash of Parmesan on it too. - Plumiegirl  3306.9 #10 5-6-13 10:22PM Like  Reply

I punctured holes in the spaghetti squash and boiled it for about 30 min. I then allowed it to cool, cut it along the equator scooped out the seeds, then used a fork to pull the strans. I put the squash into the sauce I had made and allow to cook for 30 min. I find that if its cooked more its not as crunchy and takes of a more pasta like texture. I made a light version of turkey tetrizinni with the squash. It was very good. - Mrs.mouse  419.7 #306 5-7-13 2:41PM

I stopped counting years ago in order to finish my masters degree thesis and did not get back on because I like to eat. Age and health are now the priority. It is easier this time because I know what I have to do. The weight and program are a given. - Plumiegirl  3306.9 #10 4-28-13 11:02PM Like  Reply
I've been loosely following the old points system for years. It works just fine for me to help me lose a little when I need to (like after Christmas) and maintain when I'm feeling good :) 😃 - Spoonful_O_Sugar  435.7 #283 4-29-13 4:30PM

after one week of Turbo Fire, I'm UP 2lbs!! Hoping its a gain of muscle, my abs are killing me. I've been real good about not eating the kids' goodies.*chants to self* don't give up, don't give up.
It probably water retention around your sore muscles. Keep up the good work! - vernswifevickie  312.6 #543 4-21-13 9:06PM Like  Reply

Hi! I've actually done TurboJam, Chalean xtreme, and insanity. For each of these workouts I've actually gained weight IN THE BEGINNING, and I lost 8 lbs after (so far in Insanity) Stick with it! You will eventually see the weight go down. My advice to you is to take your measurements and NOT look at the scale. The scale can be your enemy at times because it can't differentiate between muscle and fat. There are times when you gain weight, but actually get smaller! don't look at the scale! And good luck on your journey! - Madi  204.0 #1570 4-27-13 10:08PM Like  Reply

I love beachbody programs! After I "graduate" Insanity, I'm either doing the asylum or p90x! But honestly, stick with it! Sometimes you won't see results as quickly as you would like, but you will see it soon! - Madi  204.0 #1570 4-27-13 10:13PM Like  Reply

Still on target with my points. It's been an adjustment to not eat in the parks. Best rescue is a small side salad when in DCA on saturday from paradise pizza & pasta. One Ghiradeli's chocolate square is 1.6 points so its my small doable treat plus it's free. Down 2 lbs this week👍👍 - Plumiegirl  3306.9 #10 4-22-13 9:20PM Like  Reply
Great job Plumie! I love the automatic portion control of having one free piece of chocolate! Congratulations on the 2 pound loss....that is great! - vernswifevickie  312.6 #543 4-23-13 4:35AM

You're so right Vickie! I never thought of it like that. Maybe there's something to that. I'll think of everything as "Bad Comfort Food"...that just might work! - msdizmaui  518.6 #224 4-23-13 5:20PM

How is your mom? Why is evening time so hard to avoid snacking? - Mrs.mouse  419.7 #306 4-18-13 11:47PM Like  Reply
We just got a call from the oncologist who wants to see her today. Heading out shortly to go with her, so should know more then. But I'm bracing myself because it hasn't been good news so far. I did better with my snacking last night...finally! Just had a glass of Pellegrino with some lime (instead of the glass of wine I really wanted), and no snacks. WOOO HOOO! It's a start. - D55CR  245.4 #1044 4-19-13 11:17AM
With you again. I did great all day then after dinner sat there and started looking around for things to eat. Started with low-fat string cheese (not too bad) then moved on to a sugar-free fudgecicle (still not terrible) then hit the pecan pieces (should have stopped at the fudgecicle). Hope mom does better tomorrow...too bad our "late nights" are in different time zones. We could meet up on MW and talk ourselves out of eating! - msdizmaui  518.6 #224 4-19-13 12:57AM Like  Reply
