Re: Weight loss weekly check-in
I plan on losing 10 pounds. I want to be down to 120. That's less than I was pre-pregnancy. We'll see if I can do it!
What exercises do you plan on doing, and how many times a week?
I've got a Pilates DVD that I really like, so I'll start out by doing that 3x a week. The last time I did it was a few months ago, and it totally kicked my butt, even though it was so easy before I was pregnant! Stupid.
Any food-related goals/restrictions?
No soda, juice, etc. (nothing but water), only one dessert/treat a week, and no fast food. I also want to eat way more fruits and veggies. I plan to eat a fruit or veggie every time I crave sugar (which is a lot).
What apps are you using to help with keeping up with weight loss, if any?
My Fitness Pal and Happy Scale.
GTKY: What's your favorite healthy meal right now?
Grilled chicken topped with homemade pico de gallo (made with tomatoes, onion, garlic, black beans, corn, cilantro, and lime juice) and served with brown rice. Yeah, I think I'll make that tonight now.
Weight Goal: I'd be happy at 140/135. That is about 15/20 lbs for me.
Exercise Plan: Jillian Michaels 30 Shred DVD 3x week, 30 minute walk with stroller 2x a week.
Food Restrictions: Less carbs...I eat SO MUCH I need to get back down to a normal amount.
Apps: None
Favourite Healthy Meal is grilled chicken, steamed brown rice, grilled or steamed veggies, and tomato slices!
I should confess that I JUST ate a lemon cupcake from smallcakes....last one till I can get a handle on this weight issue, I SWEAR!
Exercise Plan: I love Jillian Michaels 30 day shred so I will start there (and I'm sure it will kick my butt). I would like to order T-25 as well!
Food Restrictions: trying to eat all whole grains, no white flours! I had great results with that in the last. Also, more fruits and veges
No apps right now
I love salmon, brown rice, and steamed broccoli!! My kids actually like it too
Exercise plan: I have a lot of biggest loser and Jillian michaels workout DVDs so I'm going to try to find time to do one a day. We try to take DS for a walk most nights weather pending. DH and I both work full time so I find that I really struggle to find time to exercise.
Food restrictions: no carbs after 3 pm. And eat 3 meals and 2 snacks a day, I was seeing a nutritionist prior to lo and the plan really worked well.
No apps right now .
Favorite healthy meal: since it's grilling season, I love to take onions, pepers, mushrooms, broccoli, chicken and shrimp all mixed together marinated in teriyaki sause on the grill. It's delicious and you can add and subtract things, something I will also put it over some brown rice.
Exercise plan: t-25, starting tomorrow and I'm scared lol
Food restrictions: no carbs or sugar
Apps: happy scale
I love grilled chicken and veggies with fat free champagne vinegar eye and berries for dessert!
I would like to get down to 125 lbs, which is about 15 lbs to lose.
What exercises do you plan on doing, and how many times a week?
I plan to do a post-natal ab segment 4x a week and do a 3.5 mile walk at least 3x per week.
Any food-related goals/restrictions?
I want to cut out junk food in general. I also want to count my calories.
What apps are you using to help with keeping up with weight loss, if any?
I use MyFitnessPal for counting calories.
GTKY: What's your favorite healthy meal right now?
For lunch I have a springs mix salad with peppers, cheese, and sometimes avocado with balsamic vinegrette dressing on it....boring, I know!
I joined the gym about a month ago but I'm having some personal issues which have me pretty depressed so I haven't felt like doing anything. I need to get back in there!
I'm keeping junk food out of the house and trying to eat a high protein diet. Lots of eggs are being eaten over here. I'm still nursing so I'm drinking a ton of water... unfortunately nursing didn't help me get all the weight off
I have a FitBit- which I love. So I use that app. You can use it to record your diet and it also tracks your activity & sleep.
I don't really cook.... But I've made this several times and it's delicious:

Exercise programs: I'm going to start walking again now that the weather is finally nice. I also bought an 8 week weight lifting guide for at home so I start that tomorrow. I'm very excited about this. I'll be doing it 5x a week.
Food restrictions: I've cut gluten and dairy out and in two weeks I had lost 6lbs and 2 in off my waist, so I think I'll continue this.
Apps: map my fitness and my fitness pal.
