Haha, no I don't speak French at all. My little sister is teaching me some key phrases though, like, where is the bathroom? I'm trying to do that exact same thing -- my first week here, I went out almost every day with my coworkers, just so happy to be invited out to lunch to hang out with them, and ended up $50 poorer. Yikes! It's amazing how quickly that money adds up! -
Reasons to Get Your Ass to the Gym Tumblr
Torilynne replied to ETFnerd's topic in Rebel Army Base Camp
That's not necessarily true...I'm 23 and I do not look like I work out. I say that looking good no matter what your age is, is an accomplishment. Especially keeping that look as well. And it's not any easier for us than it is for people in their mid 30's. We can have just as many issues with inspiration, motivation and actually following through as much as anyone. -
So, I'm finding that I have some time at work that I could theoretically take a minute every half hour or so to do some working out. Just like, y'know, a quick set of squats at my cubicle or something. So my question is, is there a difference between doing an exercise every half hour, adding up to a full workout, or do you get better results if you do the workout all at the same time in a 45 minute period or something?

Apple slices and peanut butter, ants on a log (celery with peanut butter and raisins, if you didn't know ), jerky, or I make my own trail mix consisting of raw almonds, dried mixed berries, and Ghiradelli dark chocolate chips It tastes so delicious!

It's amazing how much we just do by habit, right?? I know sugar is one of my main addictions too, but not added sugar so much as just sugary things...Like dark chocolate, chai tea, and really sugary fruits.

Citabean, the Ogre Adventurer, Goes to Boot Camp

A snack I like to make in bulk and then put into baggies so they're easy to grab is my own homemade trail mix! I take about 2 oz almonds, 1 oz of Ghiradelli's 70% cocoa chocolate chips, and 1 oz dried fruit (I do berries and cherries type mix). It's delicious, helps get those healthy almond fats in, and can help curb chocolate/sugar cravings too But if you want to add some healthy fats to your diet, you should try a taco salad! I love to make a big salad, grill up some very thinly sliced steak (like, carne asada quality), and add some slices of avacado. Mmmm yummy! Also, adding slivered almonds to a stir fry or a meal would help increase the fat, protein, and calories. -
Hey! How's it goin? I'd love to hear how your goals are coming along, NF soulmate

Well, actually, at one of my areas where I work at, they have kind of a mini convenience store type thing. It's got chips, fruit, cereal, candy, nuts, and then it's got a fridge with soda and sandwiches (the kind you'd find at the gas station), and a freezer part that has ice cream, tv dinners (like healthy choice), and the typical frozen burgers and burritos. It's nice to have if you forget your lunch but have your card or some cash on you. In other news, I forgot my lunch today I was supposed to get a ride, but instead they called me fifteen minutes before a shuttle would leave to get me to work on time, so I basically flew out the door. Ugh. Also yesterday, family got so caught up with my little sister (she performed in a HS production of Hairspray last night, opening night!), that I didn't have the time to do my strength workout. BUMMER! In other news though, another week means another paycheck, which means I save more for my vacation Lunch to work: 3/5 So, for this week, I get a C on my lunches. Strength workouts: 1/3 Week still isn't over! Money for Paris: $730/$1200 I give myself an A for my saving this week -

Thanks! I'm trying my hardest I admit, I did buy something from the vending case -- an apple. I was craving it and it was delicious, so I don't count it as going out Plus I had enough change on me to afford it -
Oooh, tuna burgers? Sounds delicious!! What did you serve it up on? Or did you just eat it plain?
