Good Morning Everyone!
I hope everyone slept well- I know I did, there's nothing like a Sunday morning sleep-in (til 6:30
).
Hi Rapidbreath, nice to hear from you again,
I too have more trouble with the food rather than the workouts (anymore anyway.) As far as food goes I do the calorie cycling routine and aim for low carb cause of my insulin receptors not being too fabulous. If I don't beat them up with sugars I may get to have them for longer and avoid type 2 diabetes entirely.
I am with you on the preventing "the sugar (diabetes)", both my parents and all of my grandparents developed type 2, so it's time for me to stop flogging my poor little genetically inferior pancreas and lose some weight. Whoa! Nightly yoga instead of TV! I like how you think. I don't know if I can do that, but I would like to. Maybe I'll try that once/week.
Ouch, getting up at 4:30 sounds like a wonderful cure for the will to live. but it sure would be worth not having to come home after work and exercise. When the workout is done in the AM, you feel like no matter what happens, you started the day ahead of the game. Good luck with that. If it will help you, I will send you a quick post at 5.
Hi Carmen,
Good for you for advancing your jogging! Is 4DS a mixture of other weight workouts? I have a rotation, but am still experimenting with it. I changed my rest day from Sunday to Friday because I have more time on Sunday AM. Good luck with your endeavors. You are not alone!
Hi Beth,
I just completed my first week of BFFM, and I was pleasantly surprised. The most painful part was planning the food at the beginning of the week, but it took the angst out of picking what to eat on a daily basis, I didn't get hungry, in fact, I had to make myself eat because I wasn't hungry, and I had a lot more energy. At my job, we have afternoon conferences that are in a semi-darkened room and I have avoided power point coma all week!
If you decide to get in there and do it, let us know, and if you decide it's too much, keep posting with us on peanut gallery status!
Nat,
I know you're out there, probably busy with life, but hope all is well.
Well, I am off to do low impact circuit, which takes 103 minutes, which is why I'll be doing it on weekends!
Well,
I'll BBL,
Lisa
