^months is actually a really long time, you should probably kick it up in a couple weeks. you'll be surprised how fast the body adapts. also, beware of those jamba juice drinks. i love them myself but look a the nutritional info on their website, there are enough calories in those as a full on meal and juice is FULL of sugar. i drink juice rarely for that reason alone.
also i'm with you on the cardio, i hate it with a burning passion. i know chach hates this but i used to read while i was on the elliptical and bike so it forced me to be on each machine for a while (30+min). that helped me not hate doing my obligatory daily cardio...good music is key though! as for the rowing machine i can't do it for more than 10min because i'm not a big fan but if you get into it that's a good machine.
kelly - that skating machine is good for a quick warmup for me but when i was doing my actual cardio on it i gotta admit i wasn't a fan. that whole floating thing i didn't like and i swear i was doing something wrong because i think i hurt my calf/knee doing it so i stopped months ago. |

yea after i had that jamba juice protein thing, i didn't even eat dinner tonight. it was really filling. it had bananas, strawberries, soy & whey protein and i had a free calcium booster in it.
the only drinks i have in my fridge ever are water and propel fitness water and sparkling water.
i'm gonna skip the jamba juice now that i thinhk of it cuz that is like $5 each time. that's $20 a week i'll be spending on smoothies. no thanks. and i love food and cooking too much to be having meal replacement stuff anyway. i'm gonna do a good grocery store run this weekend and do some research on foodnetwork.com before i do. get some good healthy protein filled recipes. like turkey sausages and fish recipes.
there is a lady who reads on the exercise bike too. that's a good idea, but i'm so add. it would be hard for me to focus on reading while in a crowded gym on an exercise bike. lol i'll read a sentence and look up for a minute and be like, 'ooh he's hot..ok back to reading" *read another sentence* "god this sucks, i'm sore already...OOH HELLOO he's hot too...ok ok focus jamie":stongue: |

:haha: oh yeah you'll get distracted but that's key. distracted from the exercise at hand :) i end up reading the same paragraph a couple times too.
oh turkey sausage is good...damn i think i have some in the freezer. gotta defrost that. as for fish, i'm a fan. i had salmon for lunch :D woooooooo that's the only positive of lunch meetings |

| oh yea u just reminded me of oatmeal. i should get those little packets and keep them at work. that will get me in the habit of eating breakfast. |

Make sure you read the nutrition info on those and watch the sugar content! You're best off to just get the plain ones and then add your own fruit. :)
I ing love oatmeal, btw. I love morning shifts at work...I always get a bowl of oatmeal, 2 poached eggs, and toast with peanut butter. That's why I haven't been grocery shopping since before DEMF (lol), cause I've been working so much and they feed me there. |
