It about a mile or so around my complex, so I am gonna walk the doggies and get a couple of miles in.

okay so here's the next question... I am trying to focus on Carbs and Protien... but even though we eat low carbs, there is usually some amount of fat that we are taking in. I understand that if there are now carbs to burn, the body will burn stored fat, but what about the fat we are taking in daily. How does that factor into the equation? I am still a lil lost on the whole thing, but hey whatever works!

Thats right, a fraction lost is better than a fraction gained... And it feels special being in the loser circle, right! Yeahhh for Ms. T. :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: You go girl cus this thang aint easy, but your pushing your way forward!! :) :Banane40: :waytogo:

Go Connie, Its ya Band Day- Go Connie, U gon Lose the Weight!!! Congrats to u and I wish ya a speedy recovery! :) :Banane40:

Smarty pants:pound: :pound: :pound: :pound: I still luv ya though...:hug:

3/8/05 B- EAS Protein Shake S- Turkey and Cheese rollup L- Salad w/ Chicken breast, sesame ginger dressing S- Pork Rinds D- Pork chop, smashed califlower w/ a lil butter and sazon. and steamed broccoli Lots of water, crystal lite, a protien drink for the gym and a one a day multi vitamin

Yeah, when I got home last night I wasnt hungry. But I ate some extra pork rinds cuz I was afaid my calories was too low. Okay, well I will eat as I have been and see what happens. BTW, I didnt make it to the gym, but I did walk around walmart and bought me a weight watchers scale. So now (although I know I shouldnt) I will weigh myself each morning and mark it on fitday.com. However, I will only post my weight losses here from TOPS... I am pumped!!!

Hey Yall, I have a dilemma... Here is my foods for the day. As you can see, I am not getting in enough calories and I am afraid that I wont lose the weight like I am trying to. For those on the protien train/low carbs, how many calories are you taking in. Any suggestions?

Wont shoot ya... actually thanks for the info. I want to keep within 30-40 carbs a day, so the carnation may not work for me. I prefer something that is in liquif form though... the powder always seem yucky to me. But please bring the sample as I would like to try it out. Thanks!

Connie, do u just get them at the grocery store? LSasha, do u have extra Unjury's? If so, can I buy one off of ya? I'd like to try it before I order.... :hungry:

I'd love to join ya'll today, but I have to go home and get the poochies settled. I will go to the gym instead and do 400 cal on the tread mill. I do want to go to Haines Point though, so I will see yall up there on Sat.

Okay, where is "the track"?

Hey ladies... When and were is the next meeting?

No I cant, cuz ya email allways come back!!! I will bring a copy to the meeing tonight.

[Tomorrow is Connie's big day, one more on the bench...yeahhhhh!!! Yeahhhhh Connie!!!!!! :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:

I got them at CVS for 13 bucks for a 50 pack, which is kinda expensive. I saw somewhere online that they had them for like 8 bucks for a 100 pack. I will try to find the website again. You have to ask for them at the pharmacy desk.

They are hiring all over the mid atlantic. Nothern VA, Bethesda, Rockville, Columbia, B-more...

BIG Hugs to you T... :) B) You are one of the Sweetest most CARING person that I have met in a long time. Anytime u need me I am here for ya girl..

Thanks lady. I feel good... although I will probably be sore tomorrow. I did one whole hour on the tread mill, alternating between 2.5-3.5 mph and 3-15 incline. I know I burned at least 750... Yeahhhh. Then I hit the weights for 1/2 hour. I gotta start good so I keep myself motivated. I also had that isopure protein drink while I worked out. It tastes okay... left my lips a lil dry, but hopefully it working to keep the muscles strong. Also, I need to take a multi vitiamin to keep myself together :notagree But I tell ya, watching 24 while I was on the tread DEFINATELY helped! Hopefully, I will hit the gym before I go to TOPS... get that extra .25 pounds OUTTA HERE...

Hey miss Connie... I see you have the Carnation for breakfast. Please tell me what you think of them. Also, LSasha or Stocky, let me know about the Unjury. I am taking EAS protien drinks, but I need some alternate drink because I think I am allergic to something in the drink (mouth starts to tingle) Thanks ladies.

3/7/06 B- Boiled egg S- turkey/cheese rollup L- Salad/ chicken breast S- couple pork rinds D- Chicken and spinach Water, Crystal Lite, more Water....

Hey yall, I bought some ketostix yesterday. The are suppose to tell you if your in ketosis. Anyone ever use them? If so, what did you think of them? Thanks!

Thanks LSasha.... I appreciate the info. I went the grocery store and got all I needed to last me this week. I cant wait to weigh in next week!!!:omg:

I went to the gym last night, did 1 hour on the tread, 750 calories... Nothing like a good show to make u forget how hard ur working. Okay, I am getting pumped. Count me IN on the walk this weekend. I may even bring my pooches.
