    Yes

    Do you like snow?
    I win.
  • justamjustam Posts: 21,409
    I like snow very much for short periods of time. I think it's beautiful.

    Do you live in a place with lots of snow or do you just like pictures of it?

  • justamjustam Posts: 21,409
    No. I've been drinking green tea all day. It keeps me awake! :? :D

    Have you tried any good new food or drinks lately?

    I made beef tenderloin and I marinated in a mustard, rosemary, mined garlic and thyme sauce that I whipped together, was good, a little undercooked for my liking but I was going by a suggestion from a website, will try again

    who wins tomorrow in the NFL games?

    I have no idea. That's the fun of sports. It's not over until the last moment!

    I have finally decided it's time to diet this year. I hate diets but I'm doing it anyway.

    Are you starting a new diet in 2013?
    &&&&&&&&&&&&&&
  • smarcheesmarchee Posts: 14,539
    nope, I am continuing from my diet/lifestyle change in the summer and I am down 60 pounds

    what is your strategy for the diet?

    Well, I have a few books that recommend cutting out carbohydrates and focusing on protein, vegetables, and lots of water and green tea. :geek: So far, so good.

    How did you lose so many pounds?
    &&&&&&&&&&&&&&
  • smarcheesmarchee Posts: 14,539
    lots of exercise, an hour a day at least 5 days a week, replace eggs with egg whites, which I then add veggies, makes for healthy breakfast, replace snacking of bad foods at work or throughout the day with snacking of apples, blueberries, carrots or celery etc, a good salad at dinner, or small salad with whatever else I made, or a good stir fry, cut out all breads and replace with whole wheat wraps, only water or fruit or nuts for a snack in the evening, mostly nothing but water, cut out all salts, especially bbq sauce, only use mustard as condiment most of the time and some hummus, fat-free sour cream, bought low-calories fudgecicles for when I get a chocolate craving, so just lifestyle changes like I said lol

    do you like to run or jog?

    I've never been a runner or a jogger. I do use a treadmill four times a week though. I like to read. I can go a couple of miles and hardly notice it if the book is good enough! :)

    I like your approach. I hope I can stick with my diet. I decided it was time because I have been exercising regularly since the summer and the scale is just not moving.

    Do you like to run or jog as your exercise?
    &&&&&&&&&&&&&&
  • smarcheesmarchee Posts: 14,539
    nope, I hate both lol, I do walk, at a brisk place, with an incline and stick my head in a magazine by leaning it on the top of the treadmill and 25-30 minutes later I am done, it gets the heart going and I get to read

    have you ever used a stairmaster?

    Briefly. I don't really like them.

    Have you used one?
    &&&&&&&&&&&&&&
  • smarcheesmarchee Posts: 14,539
    yep, its my favourite thing, find one and use it, it works, tough workout, beats running

    what is your goal overall, have you thought of any targets and dates?

    I haven't thought of targets and dates.

    Do you think it'd be helpful to do that? Did you approach it that way?
    &&&&&&&&&&&&&&
  • smarcheesmarchee Posts: 14,539
    in hindsight yes, I set small goals at first which I definitley beat and that made me feel better and helped keep me focused, then I brought it up to a reasonable level and hit all the targets until now lol, but its xmas, NYE and my b-day so I am waiting out the days until they pass lol

    do you have an ipod/iphone to listen to at the gym?

    I do, but I find that distracts me from my book so I don't use it.

    Over the holidays, I stopped lifting weights to save time but I have to get back to it this week.

    Do you lift weights too?
    &&&&&&&&&&&&&&
  • smarcheesmarchee Posts: 14,539
    not at the moment, only concentrating on cardio to get some pounds off for now

    what is your favourite weight lifting exercise?

    I like upper body machines. I use the ones that focus on my midsection and the ones for my arms and back. I used to like the leg machines but I strained one of my knees so I haven't been using them lately.

    Do you use free weights or machines more?
    &&&&&&&&&&&&&&
  • smarcheesmarchee Posts: 14,539
    I'd say its pretty even, if I find myself using too many machines I get an inching to go to the free weights section, but I only go to the free weights section when it's not filled with lots of people

    do you do situps?

    what time u wake up at weekend?

    A series of times, really. My cat thinks it's time to kick me out of bed 'round 3:30am, but I tend to postpone my exit until about 10am or so. There may be some tv watching in between.

    38 degrees Fahrenheit and raining or 26 degrees Fahrenheit and sunny?
    I carried a watermelon
