Veggie Burger-Food Journal-Clif Bar

did you post your food journal yesterday? I cannot find it! :o :/

Ah, I didn’t and then I wasn’t on yesterday! Let me see if I can remember.On Sunday I went to the mountains with my grandparents in the morning and I ate a Clif bar before they came. When we got there I ate fudge haha. Around 12pm we went to eat at a diner and I got a veggie burger with a salad. The salad was simple and it had Italian dressing. Burger had ew white bread, the patty, tomato, onion, spinach, and lotsa ketchup. I ate a few fries, too hah. Then hm… I know I snacked at home, maybe on another clif bar lol. But I made an almond butter and strawberry preserves sandwich around 5pm and then I had cereal some time later and that’s all I remember. Think that was it.Yesterday I had mmm… Wow I have a bad memory and I haven’t been writing it. I had a banana and a Clif bar when I got up. I was feeling weird yesterday and I randomly decided to do yoga. Then I was doing a little upper body stuff. It started raining a bit (been having summer storms this year, it’s gr8) and I went outside to jump rope and even though I’m not supposed to, I wanted to run so I basically just ran around the block for 6 minutes. Then I did more yoga because I didn’t want my knee to bother me. Then I had a clif bar before I showered, then after I made a tofurkey sandwich. Wheat bread, 5 tofurkey slices, spinach, tomato, soy cheese, and mustard cause we were out of avocado :( Actually I took a picture of it cause I know you guys like pictures and I used one of my new tea plates :3 Then I had cereal around 4:30pm and went to work at 6:30 and of course I’m smelling food all night there so I got 2 bean burritos from work when I left. They were just beans and tortilla, and hot sauce. I don’t recall having a clif bar (yes, I really eat a lot of them and lose count track), but I did eat 3 oreo’s. That’s it! Lol. I’m going to post a photo of my sandwich soon. read more..

Mayor Michael Bloomberg-Health Commissioner-Thomas Farley-New York City

New York City health commissioner: scold or lifesaver?

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Critics call him a puritanical scold, Gotham's Dr. No and a nursemaid to Mayor Michael Bloomberg's nanny state. Meet Thomas Farley, New York City's health commissioner. Farley, a pediatrician and endurance athlete, says they are wrong about his efforts to help New Yorkers eat better, smoke less and exercise more -- moves that have been linked to New York's recent gains in average life expectancy, the biggest gains of any metro area in the country. "Anybody who is first at doing something is going to get a lot of criticism. ... read more..

Interval Training-Lifting Weights-Workouts-P90x-Tony

10 Reasons You Should Try P90X

1. No more plateaus. The core idea behind the P90X workout is what Tony calls “muscle confusion.” By doing a different type of workout every day you’ll keep your muscles guessing, which means you’ll keep them working hard.
2. Entertainment. Tony and his crew crack jokes and do all kinds of hilarious moves  to keep your mind off the pain. And the dude is funny.
3. Well-rounded workouts. Drawing from weight lifting, interval training, yoga, plyometrics, and martial arts, among other things, you’ll work your body from every angle thereby increasing your power, strength, balance, and athletic ability.
4. Less risk of injury. Injuries often happen when you repeat the same motion over and over again, as in running. P90X has you changing up your routine so often that it reduces your risk of repetitive use injuries. Also, by working your muscles in different ways, you increase their resilience.
5. No boredom. Hate interval training? No problem, the next day you’ll be doing yoga. And the day after that you’ll be lifting weights. And the day after that you’ll be boxing. With all this variety, you’ll find some things you love and some you don’t, but as Tony put it, “P90X is about forcing you to work on your weaknesses while still training your strengths.”
6. It’s a challenge. “If it’s easy, it’s not working,” is Tony’s motto. “Is this workout for everyone?” he adds. “No. A lot of people are afraid to work hard.” But if you’re willing to take the risk, he promises big results.
7. Mental toughness. Forcing yourself to try so many new things can be difficult, but once you find yourself doing something you never thought you could, you realize that you’re capable of a lot more than you thought.
8. Sound nutrition advice. P90X comes with a diet plan that focuses on eating whole, quality foods in reasonable amounts to fuel your workouts like an athlete. P90X 2 builds on this by offering a tailored approach to allow for different philosophies such as vegetarianism or paleo-style eating.
9. All day calorie burning. “Running may burn a lot of calories while you do it, but lifting weights and doing interval training will have you burning calories around the clock,” he explains.
10. Athlete-caliber workouts. Tony has trained many professional athletes and celebrities and uses the same techniques in his program as his does with his more famous clientele. read more..
