6 am - IMAX2 - intervals 1-5, raised step height to 7"

Boy who would have thought that raising the step height would have made that workout so difficult. I was really out of breath by the 5th interval, and usually I can do the entire workout pretty easily.

B - coffee
S - protein shake
L - chicken and salad
S - protein shake
D - ?

Have to go away on business starting tomorrow through Saturday. Have a great weekend.

Hi all!

For a workout this afternoon it will be KPC. Love that workout!

B- 4 egg white omlette
s- Probably nothing, I ate breakfast late
L- Salad with possibly tuna fish
S- Apple
D- Pork tenderloin with broccoli

I have to get to the store, I'm running out of options, and I'm not one for eating the same thing all the time.
Hey, have any of you tried to give up caffeine? I haven't had any coffee since monday, and this morning I woke up with a huge headache, and serious body aches as well. I was hurting, but with all the stuff I like to put in my coffee I'm not willing to get back to drinking it every day like I was. Are the headaches and body aches normal? Now that I've been up for a while the body ahces are gone but I still have a headache. I've had this headache for almost three days now, not so much fun. I thought that the green tea would help, but then I remembered I got the caffeine free kind, woops!

Workout: Circuit Max

My new and improved plan is as follows :

November will be Circuit month - 3 circuit dvds, 4 straight cardios
December will be Intensity Series
January will HOPEFULLY be HardCore series. Can't wait to see what the rotation will be for this! Anyone want to speculate?
 
Hello Ladies!

Late joining in here had a lot of work to do at the office.

Today's a rest day for me. Its also a high carb day so these are my eats:

Meal 1: 2 blueberry buckwheat pancakes w/SF maple syrup & coffee
Meal 2: mini egg onion bagel w/cream cheese & white tea
Meal 3: tilapia/sweet potato/mixed veggies & strawberries
Meal 4: grilled chicken breast on 2 slices whole wheat bread w/ketchup
Meal 5: turkey apple & cheddar (recipe from Saving Dinner)

WOW everyone's menus look great!!

Good for you on giving up coffee!! I wish I could. Caffeine withdrawal symptoms are headaches & body aches. Give it a little time & the headaches will dissipate. Kathy:D
 
I'm a low/moderate carber:

Meal #1: Optimum Protein Powder Mixed with Hood Carb Control Milk
Meal #2: Dreamfields Pasta Mixed with packet of Tuna and Mayo
Meal #3: Hood Carb Control Yogurt
Meal #4: Chicken Caesar Salad w/thousand island dressing
Meal #5: EAS carb control pre-mixed shake
 
Hi - I'm new to this board and have read through all of your menus to get some ideas for my own. I've lost over 50 lbs. on a low carb diet and have maintained it for over a year. I still eat low carb, but with lots of veggies and fruit. Here's a typical day for me:

b - I slice flaxmeal bread (I make it myself) with 1 tbs. whipped low fat cream cheese, apple
S - 1 oz. almonds
l - salad with chicken or salad with tuna (salad has 1 tbs. chopped egg and 1 tbs shredded cheese and 2 tbs ranch dressing - yes, I measure)
s - low carb yogurt
d - 2 grilled chicken wings and 1 small grilled chicken thigh, no skin, 1 cup broccoli sauteed in olive oil, 1 cup mustard greens or chard, low carb yogurt and small fruit - like 1/2 cup grapes or a small plum

My goal is to reduce my body fat percentage and get more muscle definition. I've seen some great progress with Cathe workouts, but I know that 80-90% of the equation is diet. I eat 1600-1800 calories per day and work out 6 days per week. I'm 44 years old, 5'7" and weigh 140 lbs. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks! Julia
 
Hi there. I've never posted my meals on here, but I would love some opinions on what I'm eating (too much/too little, etc.) If you all don't mind.

B - Myoplex protein shake
S - Protein Bar
S - Carrots
L - Chicken Enchilada (my own light recipe)
S - Yogurt
D - Chicken breast, Broccoli
S - Cottage Cheese

I'm eating between 1500-1800 calories a day and trying to break through a plateau. Any advice would be great!

Thanks,

Katie:D
 
You guys look like you're doing a great job especially Julia! Katie, how do you make your light chicken enchillada?? It's making my mouth water!! :p :9
 
It's pretty simple. I just cook chicken breasts lightly sprinkled with taco seasoning and then shred them. I then mix the shredded chicken with half a can Macayo's Enchilada sauce (15 cal. per serving, but I use about a serving and a half for each one), then add jalapenos and green chilis. Fill a light flour or whole wheat tortilla with mixture. Roll it and put it seam side down in a baking dish (I usually make a batch of 4 at a time). Then pour the remainder of the enchilada sauce and a little taco sauce (I use Orgtega) over the top and sprinkle with light monterey jack/chedder cheese. Bake at 350 for about 20 minutes. It comes out to about 390 calories (just make sure you measure out everything. I use about 3 to 4 ounces of chicken and only one serving of cheese for each one). I usually put cheese inside the enchiladas for my husband, but leave it out of mine and only sprinkle it on the top.
I've also made it with ground sirloin before, but I don't like the extra fat that comes with it.
