Nikki Massie replied to the topic Beth's weekly plan July 30-Aug 5 in the forum Weekly Action Plans 7 years, 3 months ago

Following your day-to-day adventures, I say you did great! You enjoyed yourself, you got out there and did stuff and if you enjoyed every bite then I call that a resounding success! Indulgence is only bad in my book when it’s something you didn’t end up enjoying (either because you went wayyyyy overboard or because you were indulging for the wrong…[Read more]

Maria A started the topic NOLA OAC convention in the forum Open Discussion 7 years, 3 months ago

I just want to let everyone going to the NOLA convention this year that I hope you have a wonderful time and safe travels!!! My husband and I LOVE NOLA and try to make it there at least once a year. Unfortunately I am unable to go next week since my knee replacement was only done 2 months ago and the streets/sidewalks aren’t always level there.…[Read more]
Maria A started the topic Maria's plan 8/6 – 8/12 in the forum Weekly Action Plans 7 years, 3 months ago

My mini-pledge this week is to continue working on slowing down my eating and with my discovery last week I also will work on taking way smaller bites and chewing more with these bites, especially meats and poultry.

Grocery shopping was completed this morning and meals planned.

Breakfast – Caramelized Onion Quiche (from Nikki’s breakfast…[Read more]

Way to go Nikki!!!
Nikki Massie started the topic August 6 in the forum Daily Check-Ins 7 years, 3 months ago

Sunday fun day?

I dunno. But I don’t have a ton planned. I went to the farmers market to get pickling cucumbers because I have a bunch of dill I refuse to let go bad! I also got some tomatoes for salsa (because I have cilantro I refuse to let go bad) and I fell in love with a bushel of not-quite-ripe peaches (which hopefully means they’ll be…[Read more]
Nikki Massie started the topic I wore a bikini top…outside! in the forum Non-Scale Victories 7 years, 3 months ago

I bought a bikini eons ago (pre-mastectomy) and yesterday finally decided to put the dang thing on. And it looked good! I thought. I just wore the top + cut-offs and set about doing some stuff around the house, including checking on my garden, but I didn’t put anything on top of the bikini top to go out there. I was just brave and did it!

There…[Read more]
Nikki Massie replied to the topic Breakfast – yes or no? in the forum Ask a Question, Get an Answer 7 years, 3 months ago

Sorry! Late to the party.

I had the same issue, Ruth. I did Body Pump at 5:45 a.m. and I couldn’t convince my stomach to accept anything but maybe water before then. Problem was I would also conk out at the class because my last meal was in the middle of the evening before!

My dietitian told me if I absolutely could not eat before a workout, to…[Read more]

The rambling book is good – for you (to let it out) and for us (to understand where you’re coming from!).

I like your carb plan. I think the starches just don’t agree with you but I bet you’ll do great with veggies and some fruit.

- Work on that 64 oz to be DECAF.
- Bring lunch to work at least 1 day. (eat in!) [keep bringing in the snacks every day, though]
My weekly “bite-size goals” from Good Measures:

-Drink 64oz of water every day
-Continue to log foods in the platform

And I’d like to get to the gym and/or take a walk this week. My back is hurting in a different…[Read more]
KathyP replied to the topic Kathy's week of July 30 in the forum Weekly Action Plans 7 years, 3 months ago

I’m doing OK. Didn’t hit the full water goal every day. I got the liquids, but too much was caffeinated in my book. Funny how I left off the “log food every day with Good Measures” because I was scared of it, and I actually did that one instead. LOL.

I guess I don’t know my own abilities as well as I thought I did.
KathyP replied to the topic Breakfast – yes or no? in the forum Ask a Question, Get an Answer 7 years, 3 months ago

How do you not eat first thing? OMG.

I was trained that you need to kick start the metabolism and especially with a pouch need to keep feeding it in small doses. If the supplements are making it unhappy, is there a compromise with the time you take them instead of skipping breakfast?

I do a Quest Bar on the way to work. I tried the shakes, but…[Read more]
Robin Miller started the topic Reported in in the forum August 2017: The FNC "Mini-Pledge!" 7 years, 3 months ago

Just wanted to let you know that I’ve reported back in on last week’s weekly plan and put a new pledge on this week’s plan.
Robin Miller started the topic Robin's Week of August 6-12 (and mini pledge) in the forum Weekly Action Plans 7 years, 3 months ago

I haven’t given up on adding more complex carbs to my food plan despite last week’s weight jump. (darn those grains!). This week’s pledge is a repeat of last week’s pledge. However, I’m avoiding grains and am going to try out things such as adding winter squash (butternut, possibly acorn although I haven’t seen acorn in the stores yet.), more…[Read more]
Robin Miller replied to the topic Robin's Week of July 30 August 5 in the forum Weekly Action Plans 7 years, 3 months ago

Reporting in on week 1.

Yes, Nikki, grains are gone again. In my enthusiasm to add carbs back in, I forgot about that nasty little reason of huge weight gains when I eat them. But I’m not giving up! See this week’s pledge!
Sarahlareina started the topic Sarah's week 8/6 in the forum Weekly Action Plans 7 years, 3 months ago

Another busy week ahead and hot temps, so I’m still focusing on getting in my water every day.
Breakfasts: Banana Bread Breakfast Cookies
Lunch: Chicken veggie fritters
Dinner: Pepperoni Chicken bake
Snack: Nik’s cheesecake pudding parfaits, protein bars

Exercise: 25 miles walked + 3 workouts (whatever my trainer tells me to do)
Sarahlareina replied to the topic Breakfast – yes or no? in the forum Ask a Question, Get an Answer 7 years, 3 months ago

I start my first cup of coffee within 5 min of getting up, and then have breakfast about 15 min after finishing it…maybe 30-40 minutes after I wake up. I vary my breakfast between some kind of egg (poached, scrambled, baked in a muffin with meat & veggies) and homemade protein muffins or the occasional Greek yogurt. If you’re a pinterest user,…[Read more]

Well today is my “baby’s” birthday (31 years old….YIKES! I’m not that old am I?!?!). Will be heading over to his house this afternoon to “celebrate” so to speak. He didn’t want a birthday party, so he’s telling everyone it’s a cookout. Well I have news for him, I’m going to celebrate his birthday whether he likes it or not!!! So there Marc 😝!!!
