Eat, Sleep, Weigh, Repeat'

[pippalata]

I only have it because it's easy to make it big batches and then freeze in portions, so it's just one less thing to sort out every night when I get home! I usually have 3 or 4 on the go at time though so it's not too bad normally, for some reason I keep ending up with the bloody speed soup at the moment though which is getting a bit much!

A new batch of butternut might be the answer...

What's a 30 day shred???

What's a 30 day shred???

Its a workout dvd with jilian micheals. You are meant to do it for 30 days, three levels, 10 days each level. Its very popular. I think the dvd is 20-30 minutes. Its like insanity if youve heard of that, only not as intense!

 

[pippalata]

I'm not very good with home workouts. I have to go to class or I just end up watching it with a cup of tea!

 

[becki2009]

I didnt end up doing it in the end, my friend came round for a coffee instead!

I caved and made some more soup! Brocolli and stilton. It tastes goood though! Just had a bowl for supper!

 

[pippalata]

Love that soup. Delicious!

I've been to my kettlebells class tonight so rewarded myself with some ice cream afterwards. Yummers!

 

[becki2009]

O wow...i booked in for kettlebells once but never went! Im not good at classes..i find the time it would take me to get changed and travel there i could of done a decent workout already...when i finish work at 5 im usually ready for my tea already so like to be done by 5.45 ish!

 

[pippalata]

I do my spinning classes straight after work for the same reason. I can get changed at work and go straight there as I like to be home and in my pjs with dinner almost done by half 6! I'm going snowboarding next month though and want to improve my core, hence the extra kettles classes...

[pippalata]

Courgette spaghetti? Never heard of that...

Snowboarding will be fine, except I have no balance and bruise like a peach. The things you do for love...

 

[becki2009]

Courgette spaghetti is just a whole courgette peeled with a peeler. I like it. Its a lot less carbs for the days when i want something a bit lighter!

 

[pippalata]

I'll have to give it a go. Do you boil it? I'll griddles it like that before and it's delicious.

 

[becki2009]

Exercise- one 40 minute dog walk

 

[pippalata]

Love griddles courgettes. How much do you normally exercise?

 

[becki2009]

I walk around 40 minutes to an hour everyday with my dog. I jog after work when i can usually 2-3 times a week for around 20 minutes. I was aiming to attempt workout dvds this week but im really un motivated
I would like to do workout dvd 3 times a week and jog 3 times a week. But need to get a routine up which is easy enough to stick to. How about you?x

 

[pippalata]

I have to have routine or I seriously fail! I spin every Wednesday and Friday and do a kettlebells class every Tuesday at the moment. I usually either do a 30 minute run on a Monday or go to a toning class on a Thursday and whichever day I don't exercise is date night! I have to have a free night every week or else I become a bit obsessive and end I resenting it all x
