*****Clean & Tidy Thursday******

Good morning, ladies!

I am sick with a horrible head cold, and I am losing my voice. No w/o for me. I also have a stone bruise on my left foot, which would make step painful, so there is another excuse.

State Fair went okay yesterday, today's menu will probably include a lot of soup. Have a great day, everyone!
 
Oh feel better kate....yes a lot of fluids for you today.

I glad that you are walking Steph that properly made you feel a little better. The end of October that not too bad. by the time Halloween comes around you will be back doing kickboxing.

Busy day today Shirl?
The Sears man will be her on Friday to fix my stove and I'm taking the whole day off from work. Grat hats for doggies...so cute!

My w/o today was Tracey Staehle Kickbox and boy does she goes fast. This is an intermediate to advance workout very similar to Cathe kickbox. The first premix is only 30 mins. so I did a stretch max also. Her third premix is 50 minutes (all toning). I will need to practice this w/o before I become good at it.

b- egg whites
s- yogurt
l- lean pocket (not too tidy)
d- ??

Chat later
 
Good morning Robin & Katie & all else!

Robin - Lucky girl! I would LOVE a day off from work, but being self-employed it will NEVER happen! I've never done Tracy S. Love Stretch Max. My fave segment is w/ the band.

Katie - Sorry for your sore throat. I have a terrible one too. It's lasted for weeks. I know I'm too stressed and not getting enough sleep. Maybe this weekend I'll be able to kick it.

b - shredded wheat, Honeycrisp apple (mmmmmm)
s - banana
l - grilled chicken salad
s - ???
d - tortilla soup & veggies
wo - Muscle Max

had a good rest day yesterday. My tri's were killing me. Don't you just love DOMS?:)

Hope everyone else is doing well. Have a great CLEAN day!
 
Good Morning Robin, Kate, Katie and all that follow!

Katie - sorry about your sore throat and foot. I guess your body needs some rest. Hopefully you have some good soup on hand.
Robin - I know you will glad when your oven is fixed. I would love to take a day and sit at home waiting for a repair person.
Kate - I haven't done Muscle Max in a long time. Maybe it's time to bring it back out...

BTW - I liked my first Tosca Reno recipe (Chicken Waldorf Salad). It was a light salad but good. The only thing I would do differently is add more salt and pepper. I never add enough spice.

w/o was LIC Cardio premix
b: kashi w/ banana
l: salad
s: apple
d: tbd

Have a great clean day!
 
Hello Clean and tidy ladies!

Katie, sorry to hear you're not feeling well :(

So, no workout for me today, again needless to say!

s: fat free CC
l: tofu, carrots, hummus, apple
s: 2 ryveta and almond butter
d: TBD
Same everyday, but i'm fearing the weekend, its Canadian thanksgiving, can you say pumpkin and apple pie!!!!
Have a great day everyone,
Steph
 
Thanks Robin!!
Maybe not ice cream, but maybe apple pie with pumpkin pie :)
I better watch myself, i'm not working out!!
My mother said she'd use splenda actually, and low fat condensed milk, how nice is that?

What time is the Sears man coming tomorrow?? Are you off work?
S
 
OK Clean Peeps...I've AWOL for a while why I tried to get through life's chaos. Now I'm trying to get refocused so here goes....

B: steel cut oats cooked with skim milk, topped with a teaspoon of brown sugar
Tea with cream and teaspoon of sugar

s: a small half of a Panera asiago cheese bagel (essentially the crusty cheese top--I threw out the rest of the bagel!)
tea with cream and teaspoon sugar (it was a bad day...I could have done much worse)

l: spinach salad with sesame seeds and package of albacore white tuna with lemon poppy seed vinaigrette with 20 0z water

s: slice of ezekiel toast with natural pb 20 oz water

D: Tosca Reno's nifty scallops with risotto recipe 20 oz water

I'll lay off dessert since I had the extra sweets but can I tell you just how dang happy VitaMuffins make me??!!
I've missed you ladies! Hopefully you'll take me back!
 
BTW, I wonder if I should head north of the border to squeeze in an extra turkey day? Hmm? LOL! :9
 
Beavs! Welcome back! Will you pick me up on your way to Canada?!
Never had a VitaMuffin - care to enlighten?

Steph - Happy Turkey Day! Good luck! It's my most hated holiday. We get so little time off and I hate spending hate day running around. My parents are divorced so there's 2 stops. Add in DH's folks and we are very full. And NO ONE eats clean. I bring my cold salad to contribute. And I'm ALWAYS the only one to eat it. One year my grandma actually said "Well, no one wants to eat THAT!" like it's a disease or something. Oh well.

Hope all have had a good day - the Blog update definetly helps!
 
Thanks for the Turkey wishes!

Beav's, anytime you want to come to T.O for turkey and drinks, you let me know!!! So glad you came back!!
Kate, i'd eat your salad! Good for you for trying. You can bring it over when Beav's picks you up. I hope everyone else is planning to come as well, Colleen, Katie????

I dont eat turkey, i'm a crazy vegetarian, but my mother makes an awesome fall stew/stirfry with squash, parnsips, tomato etc! Its freaking good!

I managed some cleaning tonight with my back, i'm heading out for my walk, dogless so i dont get jolted around too much.
Have a fantastic evening everyone,
Steph
 
Steph - Glad you're still checking in despite everything! We'd miss ya!

Vegetarian - yes. Crazy - no. I was explaining about how we get meat to DDs and they were basically horrified. Wish I could make the plunge but DH wouldn't follow it. I don't have a TON of meat - but trying to branch into beans more. Mom force-fed them to us (& she was a rotten cook). She ruined so many good foods that I've had to retrain my brain to like them. Oddly, w/ each pregnancy I've had I've learned to like more foods. YIKES! Better keep to my side of the bed tonight!:7

Wanted to do MM - but crazy night so I squeaked in Karen Voight Calorie Burn. Its 1/2 hour and you can easily modify to make it harder. Not SUPER fun, but it does the job when time/space is crunched. Hopefully MM tomorrow.

Good night!
