What's on your Thursday menu, RNYers?

You are a machine Kelly!!

Hello Everyone. Just working today. Nothing real spectacular.

QOTD-M, W and Fri I swim 1000-1200 meters, Tue and Thurs I run 8 miles, Saturday I typically cycle 22 miles but unsure now with the weather cooling and Sunday it varies because I am training for my first full marathon. This week we are running 14..

B-Banana and Premier Protein shake

S-Nature Valley bar

L-Grilled chicken, brown rice, pinto beans (meal prep on Sundays)

S2-KIND bar

D-unknown

good morning everyone!

I am still hovering above onederland, I hit this stall about 2.5 weeks ago and have been fluctuating up and down 1 lb...I swear the stalls alway**** me right when I am about to hit a milestone! LOL...I'm not really worried about it though--I was on the steroid pack for a week and I haven't been doing my regular workouts for the past week and a half due to resting my back, so hopefully once I go back to my routine next week my weight will start going down again!

QOTD: M/W/F I do 30-45 mins on my elliptical, then weights and started doing some core strengthening exercises - planks, backward leg lifts, wall sits, etc...going to look for some Yoga for beginners videos and start those next week as long as I am cleared by the physical therapist tomorrow--I'll get some tips from her.
Weekends I usually get my exercise by walking - I barely have time to sit, we usually have something going on...so I end up with at least 12000 steps/day or more.

B: cinnamon vanilla nut coffee w/sf creamer, L&F greek pumpkin pie yogurt
L: turkey taco salad w/black beans, tomatoes, .2 oz cheddar, olives, 1tbsp sour cream and hot sauce.
S: light string cheese (I haven't been packing a snack lately and have started getting hungry in the afternoons so I am adding this back in)
D: TJ mahi burger, 8-10 baby carrots & 1tbsp hummus

have a great day everyone!

Good morning. Accountability was bad yesterday. Work is nuts and I ate some cookies last night (just 2, but that can't be a stress reliever). Otherwise things are going well.

QOTD

Sunday - 30 min boxing class - 90 minutes circuit training

Monday - recovery swim 50 minutes

Tuesday - Spin class; Personal Training session

Wednesday - Group Power class - lifting and core work

Thursday - Tabatah class; Personal Training session

Friday - Swim (60 min) or Cardio (30)/Lifting (90)

Saturday - Core work (60 min); Lift (60 min); Spin Class

Every night I end the day with any PT homework routines and 20 minutes Boxing. I also roll every night. This is taking a lot of time. But I'm rebuilding all the muscle groups and restoring my balance. The routine is built so I can workout daily. Low weight in all my lifting - it's about core structure and not muscle building.

B - Eggwhites (2 egg volume); chicken sausage

L - Chicken burger 3 oz, small salad

S - 1 oz cheese/6 oz greek yogurt (split)

D - Small salad and 3oz Turkey

S - SF popsicle

That is an awesome workout schedule -- but even more so that you are rolling your muscles every day -- so painful, so good but so painful!

Good morning! Thanks for the well wishes yesterday. A church member has loaned us a generator and we've bought 3 containers of gas, so I think we are as prepared as we can be. I live at a lake but my house sits up on an elevation, and Duke power has drawn down the lake significantly, so hopefully when the rain gets here it wont flood the lake. My concern will be ground saturation and the falling of trees. I have to drive through 12 miles of woods to get to the interstate so that is my concern in going to work tomorrow. I hope anyone else that will be impacted are prepared as well.

QOTD I bought an elliptical to use when it is dark or rainy outside and have come to realize my 30 mins I was walking outside must have been a stroll, because the elliptical kicks me in the seat of my pants! I usually do it each morning, but this past week, had to stop. My knee has no cartilage and have been putting off replacement but have appt next month for my 3 year check up on the one that was replaced and we'll discuss doing the other.

Yesterday cals 1047, protein 90, carbs 51, fat 51. Today B 1st tea with half and half then a whole boiled egg and white of 2nd egg then more tea. L tuna salad. D TBD. Snacks Turkey breast, non fat cottage cheese, tea.

Have a good Friday eve!

I am glad you got a generator. Thinking of you. Stay safe.

Thanks!

Stay safe!

the elliptical kicked my butt at first too. I could walk on a treadmill for hours I think, but it's a whole new set of muscles to propel yourself on an elliptical.

I know what you mean. I was praying for the 3 min mark!
