November 30, 2008 -- Nicole's Food Log
Now, I've attempted Pilates once or twice before. I bought Brooke Siler's book years ago and tried it out a bit and my friend Johanna once used us as guinea pigs when she was working on her certification.
I've always thought it would be fun to hit a class so today I made the most of ''On-Demand'' and tried a 20-minute Pilates video.
Verict?
Yeah, I have no core.
Actually it wasn't too bad (other than me being in pain and looking a fool... to put it nicely!) I learned that I really need to stretch more, but we won't see me hitting a class anytime soon. While it was fun, I don't have the time to set aside an hour in addition to a normal cardio workout.
But I might do the On-Demand stuff again.
As for food, today wasn't bad, but damn I'm IN LOVE with pumpkin pie. I have one piece and am already envisioning making pumpkin bread. Such a bad idea...
But on with the food...

Oh, as for the pumpkin bread...do it! I love anything pumpkin, and acorn squash runs a very close second. You'll be astonished to know that squashes are in the vegetable category! Heather will get you there yet... ;)
Really? I thought someone told me it was a fruit... and, more to the point, don't you need to eat half a loaf to count as a serving (not that that's impossible as I make FABULOUS pumpkin bread... hahaha...)
Yeah, it's a vegetable. Packed with good stuff, really. Beta Carotine, fiber, Vit A. 1/2 cup is a serving, so a can of the stuff is usually 3.5 servings. some beggies are better than none!
To that end, a 6-slice pie would yield you a little over 1/2 serving of veggies. You could have two and get a whole serving!
