Day 8 (and 6 & 7)

I hope everyone had a great weekend! We had such beautiful weather, hopefully you all were able to get outside :) I did a double workout on Thursday and a double workout on Saturday so I could take Friday and Sunday off. Don’t forget the option to take days off by doubling up on workouts, which can be a short walk and a yoga session, Wii fit game, a walk around the parking lot at work followed by an ab session at home – whatever you consider a workout :)

Today is (drum roll please…) WEIGH-IN day! For those of you participating in the pot, you can figure out your % of body weight loss by dividing your new weight by your starting weight (new weight / starting weight = % of body weight loss). Please post it to the blog or send it to us so we can keep track, and figure out who cashes in at the end :) Mine is .97% for this week.

Finally, wanted to provide a new recipe for those of you that don’t eat meat, or are looking for a healthy alternative to a favorite comfort food – macaroni and cheese. I haven’t tried this yet, but have heard really good things about it (Disclaimer: it doesn’t taste like regular mac & cheese, but is good nonetheless. And low in fat.) http://blog.fatfreevegan.com/2007/10/easy-macaroni-and-cheeze.html

Looking forward to seeing what I’m sure are great results from everyone! Have a great rest of the day!

    Last week I did a lot of walking at lunch time and at the Wakefield lake so i'm prepared to pick up the pace for this week, looking forward to it.
    How's everyone doing?

  2. Results = down 1.02% Yay!
    Last week I didn't eat right at all so I've got to tweak that this week! Walking has been great so far!
