Jolie, nice work on the walk with Rowdy and STS triceps today.
Debbie, I have not done RWH weight workouts. Great workout. I find it interesting when I did out a workout card and see the dates and weights. I don't know if you would call it really starchy, but when I want a pasta dish I like Jovial Chickpea Pasta. It cooks up nice. I have tried some other brands that were just mushy and not the right texture. I think trying to use zucchini and vegies as pasta does not work so well. I think sweet potatoes are better in the carb category than potatoes. I like them diced and cooked in a little avocado or olive oil.
I mainly eat low carb as I want enough protein to help build muscle and help with bone health. I do eat plain unsweetened yogurt or cashew yogurt unsweetened with berries. I have added oranges recently. I am not totally carb free. Yesterday's macros were 35% Carbs; 20% Protein; and 35% Fat. So not bad. I had to throw in something before bed because mfp said if every day was like yesterday, I would be 102 lb.
Calories were not so good as I ended with 1,362 and that was after throwing in a chunk of Swiss cheese. I was surprised as I cooked up the meat from The Bad Ass Bowl and put it on cauliflower rice but had not made the Awesome sauce so topped with Siete Botana Sauce and a spoon of organic sour cream. I will get it figured out. I do have times where I have the urge to snack and will eat too many nuts or if I buy Siete grain free chips I may sit and eat the whole bag in one sitting.
Well I guess it is worth the money if the Naturopath helps the problem. The meds and stuff the doctors come up with can be costly even with insurance. I am using L theanine with ashwagandha to help relax before I go to bed at night. I have heard similar about fruit crops like apples and also stuff to make them keep through shipping that is not healthy. I don't think they do that stuff to organic, but have not researched it that much.
I can understand being excited about the Sleep Number Bed. You got a good deal.
It is not cool here. I was woke up to thunder and rain. Now it is 91 and sunny with high humidity.
Doreen, nice work on STS 2 Lower Body 2 today. Our Tread Climber is and older model and we called out a guy that does fitness repair and he replaced the treadles. It took some time because Bowflex did not have exactly what he needed since it was an older model so he had to cut the boards to fit and attach the belts. It cost us 500 dollars. but we have had it 6 more years so it was worth the money. My husband used it a lot.
