My Fitness Pal Monday: 08/06/07
My Fitness Pal (clicking on the picture will take you to a larger image)
If you notice the majority of my meals were liquid? The watermelon was actually watermelon juice and the cabbage carrots, and the onion was actually an eggroll but they didn’t have what I wanted so I decided to list the ingredients. The carrot juice wasn’t canned it was raw. The recipe is simple it’s only carrots after all. I posted it at The Raw & The Cooked.
Overall I like MyFitnessPal, if you remember this was actually a sponsored review that I wrote about a little while ago but like anything I review for money I do it because I genuinely like the service.
Off To The Gym
Today I’ll be heading to the gym early so I’ll definitely be adding the exercises I do. I’ve been working out since I was a child. I feel guilty if I miss a workout. I rarely miss. If I cannot get to the gym, which lately has been happening a lot I will work out at home.
Stay tuned you’ll be seeing videos of some of the exercises I do at home sometime this fall. I’m currently working on a format now. No you don’t have to pay it’s free. I’ll walk you through every exercise, and the cost to do the exercise at home is minimal; in fact, frequently you won’t have to purchase anything just use what you have at the home.
I used to train others in the gym, and recently I’ve been thinking about picking up a few clients. Hmm, I guess I should wait until I have more time, eh?
Come Join The Fun!
I’m going to try to post my screenshots a few times each week. I know a few of you mentioned that you were signing up for the service, and I mentioned to Harmonia that we should do a MyFitnessPal Friday check in. What about it? I know Harmonia is game anyone else?

Yet another long comment…hope you don’t mind…lol
I have been using this but half way thru last week I was so busy I didn’t enter my stuff. I’m back on the horse this week.
I have noticed I have been doing real well on all of my suggested goals…one day I went over on my fat thanks to salad dressing and one day I went over on carbs. Other than that I have been doing well. I have lost 1 pound.
I hope to do a watermelon juice soon that sounds so yummy! I have noticed that, too, with a lot of the stuff I have eaten that it’s not accounted for so I have been entering a lot of stuff as well as entering in most of the veggies/fruit, herbs, nutritional yeast, tofu, seperatly.
I will be going over to the Raw & Cooked soon. o/t…but I also wanted to tell you that you just missed my Tea Cuppa Post…I posted it right after you left, must be…
Anyhow, I do like MyFitnessPal! I will continue to use it! I saw that you responded to a poster on the message board - that’s cool!
I have been working out at home and have been taking yoga classes as well. Softball is just about done so I will start something else even if at home.
I can’t wait for the exercise video’s that is so cool! You have a lot of awesome things happening here and I am glad I get to see them take place!
I’m in for the Friday Check-in!!! I think Teeni was getting into it too! YAY!

LOL. Man - Harmonia beat me to the punch - that girl is too quick for me. But she is right - I’m definitely interested but am quite out of shape so I will be slow going compared to the two of you. Don’t worry, I won’t beat myself up over it - some exercise is better than none and I will try to work my way up slowly and carefully. Count me in. Opal, doing exercise videos is an awesome idea! I think you’ll gain quite a loyal following!

Harmonia,
It won’t be a fancy video most likely primitive compared to what I see on the market, lol. It will be my no nonsense approach to fitness. I still include my daughter in my at home workout routine. She calls one of the routines “the flying game” since I “bench press” her.
teeni,
We each go at out own speed and I’m glad that you realize that. I think what sets people back, at times, is they try to do what someone else is doing but what they really need to do is focus on themselves and their abilities. :-)

I too use My Fitness Pal and love it. Granted these last few days I have been so busy I haven’t kept up with it. Hubby and I started walking about a week and a half ago and we are up to 2 miles going up hill. We skipped out yesterday because it was too hot. At the end of the week we will be walking after I take the kids to school.

Good luck with creating videos. I’m working on a guitar blog and it’s been frustrating because I expect more from the camera and software than is capable.
I’ve now just had to give in to the fact that quality is lost when uploaded to youtube anyway.

Harmonia,
Or in your case “Superwoman” ;-)
Sassy,
Congrats keep up the great work.
April,
I must say I’m fortunate I got exactly what I wanted with my camera (Canon Elura) and software (Final Cut Express HD) I did a lot of research and had to pay for it but in the end I’m very satisfied.
I’ll post videos to youtube to gather traffic from their, but my real videos will be hosted on my own server.
