WW App Now Has Video Workouts Included In Your Membership

Did you all notice the WW app now includes video workouts?

I am thinking I may not need my gym membership anymore. Between my Aaptiv audio workout membership (also some included with the myWW program), the Headspace meditation, and the Virtual WW Workshop Meetings, WW is quickly becoming a one-stop-shop.

I’ve really enjoyed taking my workouts to the patio as I enjoy the afternoon shade and warm temperatures.  I bring out my iPad, set it up on the chair arm, and put in my Apple Air Pods.  I have done two of the new audio workouts and had to modify just a bit since I don’t want to get down on the hard concrete.  But, it is working out really well.

I’m keeping up with my goal to stay ahead of the 25 minutes daily so I can continue to work in some rest days.  I really needed on one on Thursday.  I like that this activity goal pushes me but I don’t want to risk the scale going down by workout out too much.  I know that sounds weird but it is a tough balance.  I do love how strong activity makes me feel and adding in strength training also makes me feel good in my clothes.  Activity, while tough to get motivated, always pays off.

Happy Saturday

Good Afternoon.

I ended up missing out on checking in yesterday.  It was a busy work night and I was go-go-go before that.  So, here we are on Saturday.

My week has been rock solid!  I am really, really, really hoping to see a loss this week.  I’ve been working hard and I really want that pay off.  We ended up not eating out this week which has made earning blue dots pretty easy.

Meals at home have included Big Mac Salad and Chicken Fajita Rice Bowls.

Both were delicious and have made great leftovers.  Last night at work, the suggestion to get take out from Texas Roadhouse wounded ah-mazing.  I had enough points that if I shifted around what I planned to eat, I was able to still have Roadhouse and my pre-planned Built Bar.  I also earned my blue dot.  WhoooHooo!

The curbside pick up took forever so I was starved by the time I got back to work with our orders.  It tastes 100% amazing.

I’ve been keeping up with my activity this week and staying focused on my Apple Watch Activity Goal.  I took the day off activity on Thursday.  I was exhausted both mind and body and needed the break. 

I’ll post more on what I’ve been up to with activity tomorrow.

Upping My Egg Game

I’ve been taking my eggs to the next level with Tostitos Queso Blanco Dip.  Ohhhhhh yummmmm…

Did you know that Tostinos (and other varieties on the market) has queso dip for 1 point?  That is right.  A serving of 2 Tbs is just 1 point.  That is some great bang for your buck.  I picked some up when I was doing my shopping for Cinco de Mayo and added some into my scrambled eggs.  The next day, I decided to put a dollop into my Southwest Egg Beater egg cups.  While they didn’t cook up nicely, they taste amazing.

I also added some turkey sausage crumbles to my cups.  I measured out 10g crumbles and added them to the bottom of the cups.  I put a dollop of queso into each cup and then poured the egg beaters on top.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes.  

2 egg cups is 2 points.  

Next time, I think I’ll add the queso after they are baked.  I think I will top it and then put it back in the oven for a minute or two to warm it up.

Enjoy.
