G'morning all!

Yma, glad to hear you are improving from your fall. If I may get on my soapbox about weights vs cardio. Cardio is good for your heart (hence called cardio) but weights will define your body. I used to be a cardio person until I saw the results I can get with weights. If it were up to me I'd do only weights. There is a program that I highly recommend called Zing. It's all AI. It scans you from your phone to see where you need to concentrate on and then it plans your workouts. You input the equipment you have at home, or complete lack of equipments, and it adjusts your workout. I love it because even when I travel and I'm in a hotel I can tell it I have zero equipment with me, or I have only bands, and it changes my workouts. You can choose the frequency and the amount of time. I have seen great results since May when I joined.

QOTD: hard to say. I guess when I was the most carefree with very little responsibility but school. College years were the happiest. School, friends, parties, repeat. There were a group of us from different disciplines (med, law, humanities, econ, etc) who had taken over a corner of the library for us. Everybody knew that table belonged to us. We all studied together, went to lunch together, and had tons of cigarette breaks together while discussing how to solve world problems. Life was good and we were on top of the world.

My meals yesterday:

  • Coffee
  • Chicken skewer + chicken salad I made during the weekend (it's mostly shredded chicken, onions, carrots, cornichon, Greek yogurt instead of mayo, lemon juice, spices. It's perfect as a sandwich filler which DH likes).
  • Protein pumpkin iced coffee, barebells bar
  • Protein Icecream - chocolate pumpkin (not a good combo)
  • E: 6 miles wog

Happy Taco Tue!

I am still a thrifter. I see no reason to spend well earned money on new clothes when textile pollution is so out of control in this world.

I was trying to encompass all the things! I've never really been fit, but I felt my best at 22 and was very happy!

That masters swimming sounds like a great workout. But for me I hate the whole having to shower dry my hair do the full make up just to exercise. So, I am with you. I would want to jump out of bed get in pool then start my routine. I need to get my treadmill done in the mornings moving forward so I have not excuse to. I love the pictures. Can't wait to hear the Stories.

I had one of us in the cruise ship pool that was kind of cool, but after much careful thought and consideration, decided that Marilyn wouldn't want me to post it on the internet.
