"I did the same thing on vacation. I realized I felt like crap the entire time so this week I've been back at it and I feel so much better. Like Cindy states if it were only that easy to just work out and stop eating. Those how never experienced…"

Protein and Granola

Ok so I have a couple questions that I'd like people to weigh in on. 1. I know that granola usually has a lot of fat and sugar in it, but I'd like to try to incorporate small amounts into my diet.…Continue

So I went to Florida right after my last blog post, and since then I have wreaked havoc on myself. I completely stopped working out, and was eating like crap. I haven't been to the gym, with the exception of one workout with a trainer that I slacked off completely. I feel like I completely lost every ounce of motivation I had before I went on vacation. I was letting the self-loathing voice to get pretty loud. It was not helping with my motivation.Then a few days ago Eric and I were driving to a…See More
Randi Raap commented on Randi Raap's blog post At Least You're Not Whining..."Just a slide, but I saw him working with another runner this morning and he was having her kind of cross her feet and hop more. So maybe I'm building up. "
Paula commented on Randi Raap's blog post At Least You're Not Whining..."I've read that working out with a bosu ball is a great way to build balance and strengthen muscles. I am so klutzy that it is really hard for me to stay steady. I have also done pilates on the ball. I love how rolling on it makes my back…"
Cindy commented on Randi Raap's blog post At Least You're Not Whining..."That brown rice/sausage/veggie lunch looks great!
I did a total of ONE Bosu class at my gym. I never could get the hang of the ball no matter how we were using it."
Randi Raap commented on Randi Raap's blog post At Least You're Not Whining..."It's usually used upside down for balance exercises. It was upside down when I did the plank while pulling my feet through (I'm not sure what the actual name of the exercise is). It was kind of tricky. "
Randi Raap commented on Randi Raap's blog post At Least You're Not Whining..."
This is a BOSU ball.

Jami Shanks commented on Randi Raap's blog post At Least You're Not Whining..."I want to do some sessions with a trainer. Do you plan on working out at the gym most of the time? If so remember everything you guys went through and fit it into your daily routine. I love the elyptical as well and found if I do the different…"
Cindy replied to Randi Raap's discussion Protein and Granola"I thought about this also. I'm sure the protein will lose its molecular structure (denaturation) due to the heat but it doesn't/shouldn't destroy it in the sense that you won't get the same nutrients out of it.
I mostly…"
Cindy replied to Randi Raap's discussion Protein and Granola"During the school year my standard breakfast is plain yogurt mixed with no more than a 1/3 of a cup of granola. Sometimes I'll put some berries in it also. I've tried the 'real' and the 'light' version but I much prefer…"
Paula commented on Randi Raap's blog post Little rainbow sprinkles"I wish I could get a friend who could help keep me on track. Count your blessings. Maybe the extra sugar you don't normally eat put you in this foul mood. Zumba and sweat should rid you of both."

So today started quite early for me, I woke up at 6:30 but really closer to 6:40 thanks to the snooze button. I headed to the gym for my first workout with a trainer, his name is Nick. I have never been particularly athletic, and frankly the gym is always a little intimidating to me since I don't know what I'm doing with anything but the elliptical or treadmill. He was really nice, and really covered most of the bases with me. We started out with a 5 minute warm-up on the treadmill, and then…

Today started off on a high note! I got a 6:30 AM text that told me I didn't have to get get to work until 9:00 instead of 7:45. This was great, since it was a rainy dreary morning, and sleeping in was perfect for me. Levi also took advantage of a little extra time in bed by giving me some doggie cuddles. The weekend was great with a 2.2 loss on Saturday, some gym time, catching up with some old friends, and also getting things done around the house. I went to dinner last night with a couple…

It made me feel active and awesome, and I can't wait till we can go again. I went out for crabbies with some friends, and did really well at keeping the eating and drinking in…
