Weight Loss Forum / General Topics / August 2004Food & Exercise -- 8/4/2004 (yesterday)
Food: 8:45 (home): 30g More & Less cereal, 30g All Bran, 22g whey protein, 1 cup skim milk 1:00 (work, brought from home): 142g turkey meatloaf w/ 3 slices melted f/f cheese & catsup 3:30 (work, brought from home): apple 5:00 (massage studio): 1 bite-sized Milky Way candy 7:30 (home): 2 poached eggs on 1 slice whole wheat toast w/ 3 slices melted f/f cheese; 4 mint meringue cookies 11:00 (home): energy bar Totals: 1278 calories, 33g fat (23%), 142g carbs (44%), 121g protein (38%) {a little light, but today more than made up for it :-) } Exercise: 12:00: brisk 2 mile walk (very hot today) Chris 262/143/ (145-150) > 12:00: brisk 2 mile walk (very hot today) do you enjoy walking in hot weather? i >> 12:00: brisk 2 mile walk (very hot today) > >do you enjoy walking in hot weather? > >i Well, it's so chilly in my office that it always feels good when I get outdoors. And I like the feel of the sun on my body. But when the humidity and temperature are both in the 90s, like they were yesterday, it gets to be a bit much after a while. Ted, my walking companion, is heavier and it's a bit harder on him, so we tend to take a shorter route when it's very hot. (I change into shorts, sports bra, and tank top before we walk. It would be too hot to walk in my work clothes and I would be too sweaty afterward. Also, some of my clothes aren't suitable for it even when it's not hot -- like straight skirts that limit my stride or pants that touch the ground when I put on my walking shoes instead of wearing heels. ) Today was very cool, though rather rainy right at lunchtime, but I had a lunch date with a friend and meetings either side of lunch so we couldn't get away for a walk today. Too bad; it would have been a nice change. We actually like walking in a light rain.

We actually like walking in a light rain. I see. I, for some reason, like walking in hot weather and sweating, and was curious about you. Sweating makes me feel better physically. I wish for more hot weather. So far, we had only one hot day with weather in the 90 degrees. i >I see. I, for some reason, like walking in hot weather and sweating, >and was curious about you. Sweating makes me feel better physically. I go in the sauna and/or steam room at the gym every day or two -- enjoy these very much. Chris >>I see.

Sweating makes me feel better physically. [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] >i >envious Yeah, I love it. Some days when I'm not working out I go in just to do that stuff. Sometimes I go in the hot tub, then the sauna, then the steam room, with cold showers in between :-). Do you think one sweats more in a sauna or a steam room? Ahmed says the sauna, but I can't tell, since it's so wet in the steam room. Chris >>>>I see. I, for some reason, like walking in hot weather and sweating, >>>>and was curious about you. Sweating makes me feel better physically. [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > Do you think one sweats more in a sauna or a steam room? Ahmed says > the sauna, but I can't tell, since it's so wet in the steam room. I tend to agree with Ahmed here. I just do not see as much sweat, since it evaporates. Even though `I have no access to a sauna, I have a nice spa at home, which I am actually using. It is in the sunroom. i > Even though `I have no access to a sauna, I have a nice spa at home, > which I am actually using. It is in the sunroom. The only thing I miss about NJ is my hot tub. It was in the back yard and I used it every night after I got home from working 2nd shift. I got to watch an eclipse of the moon once. The soak always made me sleep like a baby.

[quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > a baby. > (and yet, I *never* take baths) I normally use the shower but if I've been working in the yard or just coming home from a long bike ride I love to soak in the tub. I throw in loads of bath oil and soak until I look like a prune<g> Beverly >> Even though `I have no access to a sauna, I have a nice spa at home, >> which I am actually using. It is in the sunroom.

Sometimes I go in the hot tub, then the sauna, then >the steam room, with cold showers in between :-). This is what they recommend at the place we go to in France. But I have to be careful, as the sauna and steam room make me too relaxed, so I can't skate - I don't do that if I'm skating next day. >Do you think one sweats more in a sauna or a steam room? Ahmed says >the sauna, but I can't tell, since it's so wet in the steam room. I think steam room, myself, but I could be wrong - look how one sweats more in very humid weather. Like here - we are living in a steam room at the moment.... sigh.... at least one doesn't get quite so hungry!
