Today I did CDorner Cardio Kickboxing and Dance, 32 minutes, heart rate 146/177, 205 calories, 3,732 steps. I then did CDorner Butt Builder workout that she did this morning, 55 minutes including the bonus work, heart rate 98/125, 155 calories (she looked at her watch at the end and said she got 377 calories!!) 432 steps. Total time was 87 minutes, 360 calories, 4,164 steps.
I just made Mushroom Bolognese from my Fix it With Food cookbook. I really like it. I wish that Whole Foods would have had fresh basil for my order today. They had parsley and cilantro. IT would have looked prettier on the pasta with the sliced basil along with fresh grated parmesan. I used cremini mushrooms. Yesterday I made the zucchini noodles with corn, tomatoes, dill and feta. I had some for lunch again today. I think it would be better without the feta, or maybe it was just because my feta was fat free and had a sour taste or something. Otherwise it would have been great. I had protein powder and berries for my in between meals. There are meat dishes in the book, but I have only done the flax crusted salmon with a grape salsa. One thing I don't get is he has one recipe I want to make that has a recipe for nondairy parmesan cheese for those like him that needs to avoid dairy for his arthritis/ health issues which is what drew me to the book. But, some recipes use dairy. The mushroom recipe has milk and parmesan cheese. I think it would be good with coconut milk though.

Roselyn, nice work on the back workout yesterday and leg day and cardio today.
Roxie, that is great that you finally found a house. I hope the move goes smoothly for you. Funny, as I kept putting on all of my makeup and lipstick then put on a mask to go in a store. It seemed silly, but I felt better with it on. I just had to for sure wash the mask when I got home. It is a relief getting that thing off.
Debbie, nice work today. I did not go very heavy either. 15# was my heaviest. I am sure we would have better results if we could go heavy again. Although Fitbit is lousy with weight work. I do better with the Garmin on weight work, but still nothing like what Chris Dorner is saying she got. Just like what I mentioned today. Me 155 her 377 calories. Maybe because I am shorter and light weight person. I think I did well on weight increments for what was done today. Maybe I could have went to 25's for the squats, but I worry about my shoulders coming into play too much. Sometimes when I do a lower body workout I put the moves in from the library of moves on the Garmin and it shows muscle groups worked and shoulders and arms show up as well as lower body just in yellow rather than red. I did some of the plank work on my forearms to lighten up the load on my shoulders. Speaking of oils in dishes, both of the ones I made called for a lot of olive oil. I used two tablespoons for the whole thing today as it called for 1/4 cup. The one yesterday called for 1/2 a cup in the zucchini dish. I cut that way back. I don't know why I would want that much in my food. Funny, the parmesan cheese recipe in my new book uses raw cashews, no soaking, nutritional yeast, garlic powder and salt. I realized I got rid of my nutritional yeast when I was checking dates on products before we moved.
Thanks I am getting some of my energy back and pain has pretty much subsided. I still find that I get drowsy for what would normally not affect me. I was sitting here today at the computer and kept nodding off. I told my granddaughter I was going to go sit in my recliner. I fell asleep for 15 minutes and energy was back. It was just the 13 year old here today. I wish that would go away. I bought some Gaia Adrenal Fatigue night supplement to try and see if it helps with cortisol or whatever is going on.
The mobility workout I did yesterday was yesterdays mobility. It was called Cardio Mobility. I notice that she has a bit different name sometimes when the workout is live and not yet put up right without the earlier chatter and ads. Times are not right either. You would think that your mail carrier would have things packed or whatever they do, by streets. It is their job to make sure it gets to the right address.
Belinda, that sounds miserable. I am so sorry that it is getting worse. I was hoping things would get better. I am amazed that you still get your workouts in.
Doreen, that sounds like it would be a good workout. I do like how Kelly does her kickboxing workouts.
