Ginger: Skinny Songs


I just saw a neat segment on an afternoon talk show. I haven't listened to the music yet but I'd definitely buy one of their T-Shirts. I think "do not feed" is my favorite.

Ginger: Pilates Tonight + I Can Make You Thin

I've been meaning to try the Pilates class at the Y for a loooooong time now. Tonight's the night. Just thought I'd put it out there for accountability :-)

On another note, is anyone watching "I Can Make You Thin" on TLC? I'm kind of intrigued...saw a snippet of a show last night but I haven't done any serious googling or anything.

---Update---
Cool class! There were only three of us so we got lots of personal attention from the instructor. It was a "Gentle Pilates" class so not super challenging...hopefully in a few sessions I'll be able to hit more of the targets.

Ginger: Made it to BodyPump

Woo hoo! I'm on a mission to look + feel "lighter" by the time my birthday rolls around in T-4 weeks. Lighter = I can sit (in relative comfort) while wearing my size 10 pants.

Hi, I'm looking for lunch box ideas. Here's a list of "balanced snacks" that I found. What foods would you recommend for an afternoon at the office?

**

Nut butter and apple slices

Whole-grain toast topped with nut butter and sliced bananas

Hummus and veggies on whole-grain pita bread

A handful of nuts and dried fruit

Yogurt and nuts or fruit

A hard-boiled egg and vegetable sticks

Edamame and whole-grain crackers

Ginger: Tired of extra weight + latest product

Is anyone else tired of carrying around extra weight? I've hit the point where it's annoying enough -double chin, shrinking wardrobe -to spark action (which explains the recent "calories burned this week" posts). I figured I should also do a food log, just to "make sure" you know?

Yikes!

Last week's entries prompted a frenzied trip to the grocery store. I just got back home...figured I'd share my latest random find. Red's mom swears by this one -and yes, the term "elixir" actually appears on the bottle. Gotta love that.

It's quiet out there...what y'all up to?
