Thanks to Jill, Lena, Jessica, Kathryn, and a surprise mid-run appearance by Veronica for starting off my weekend so fantastically.
Core workout today: 3 sets of 10 push-ups; 3 min of continuous abs--switch the exercise every 20 seconds; 30 second planks (felt easier than last week...rock hard abs, here we come!)
*I will be posting the schedule for the next 2 weeks in the next 24 hours....how exciting!
How much protein do I need at this activity level? What do you eat before and after your workouts? How many calories a day would you recommend for someone who has a few pounds to lose?
ReplyDeleteThis is an honest and silly question...how much candy CAN I eat? =) And not feel guilty?
ReplyDeleteMy questions are the same as Megan's.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I'd like to know what I can eat for energy without just downing carbs. Some days I just need something to prop me up because I didn't get any sleep the night before. My instinct is to reach for carbs and cola but I don't want to do that.
Also I would ask--if I want to indulge, what is the least damaging indulgence? For example, is ice cream less evil than a cupcake?
Is it okay to replace a meal with a protein bar? If so, how many grams of protein should we look for or what is the best choice as far as brand?
