I love all my new Fibit friends!!
I love all the new challenges. I need to make a point to check the lists and make sure I don't join more than one from our group so everybody gets in on it!0 -
That is a real thing? (Wrapping my mind around it.)
Yes and they are delicious if done correctly.0 -
Me too. That doesn't happen often. Or ever, in my case lol.
Me neither! Normally I'm up like 2 pounds every weekend! I guess it was the gym...0 -

Totally there with you! I'm sticking out my lower lip, while holding my breath!

I have gotten emails inviting me to join the challenge and when I click to view...I don't see any type of info. So, I don't know if I'm part of any or not...hate to be taking up space in a challenge that I have no info on...0 -
That sewing machine! I want!
Mine is just a basic little Brother but it is pale pink - I can't claim responsibility for that though as it was my mother's before she decided she needed a fancier one.
I'm glad you all understand my feelings about frying food in the house. Soooo stinky. We don't have an exhaust fan over our stove either (or anywhere in the kitchen), so everything I cook lingers unless I open the windows. Not too practical in our minus 40 degree winters either as it's a recipe for a burst water pipe.
The smell of Saturday morning bacon haunts me all weekend, too, it's terrible.0 -

That's really odd @kelly_c_77 . I noticed we have never been on the same challenge but I thought it just had worked out that way. I am going to send you a request for a single day showdown just to see what happens0 -

So this doesn't help in the winter, but fry outside! I used to have a fry daddy that I could plug in, so I would plug it into the outdoor outlet and fry away. I'm debating setting up my camping stove outside the next time I do fried chicken to keep the fry smell outside, and I feel like that should work as well.
Re gross girls: I was an odd combination of total tomboy that loved to get dirty and rough house, but I would do it while wearing the most frilly dresses possible. My face and hair was always a super-mess though.0 -
I've never been a fan of pickles. I can't imagine them fried.

I just got it..clicked it and all it said was join the challenge...with nothing else. So have I joined? What is the actual challenge?0 -
Hope @Italian_Buju and @Susieq_1994 are having better days today, I haven't seen anything from them in a bit.0

Pink safety glasses! I have no need for safety glasses but now I just want some.
I do, however, have a pink toolbox and pink tools. My dad bought them for me years ago and I get a lot of joy out of pulling out my pink cordless drill or hammer or whatever.
It's been killing me for a while that I have boring black and white skis, too...I am dying for a pair of super bright ones. But I made the responsible choice when I bought them and got the ones that performed the best for me and not the cutest ones. Sigh. Still, I think I have my husband convinced that I need a narrower, less-powder-friendly ski for hard/icy conditions so I'm going to try to find a suitably silly pair. There's a brand out there that makes skis with these crazy, neon bottoms that I am seriously tempted by...plus it would be so much easier for us to find my skis under three feet of snow when I veer off into the trees and crash, right? It's a safety concern!
I'm thinking a pink paddle board with the periodic table on it screams "Dr. Nonoelmo!" It May be in the works.
ETA: Can you customize them? I have not skied in a long time.

It's not showing me you have joined. Really weird!0 -

I'm in the same boat, I have no idea how to see a challenge in the fitbit app. No idea on progress or who else is in it, or anything. Where do you look for it? Do you have to have the premium package?0 -

I will not cook bacon in my house. My brother will occasionally & I hate it. I make sure my bedroom door is closed so the smell doesn't get into my closet & cling to my clothes. If he cooked it in the summer it wouldn't be so bad, since windows could be opened, but he always seems to want bacon on the -40 mornings

I was a tomboy who got girly in high school. Daughter was the frilly princess girl who did tomboy things in a dress and WILD long wavy dark hair. I have a vivid picture in my mind of her with blood streaming down her face (she has the scar b/c I only allowed one stitch due to her panic) when she fell running in a "Belle" dress and cut open next to her eye.
ETA, I'm still a tomboy girly girl.

Just think of how it's affecting them. Expanding waistlines, clogged arteries, skin blemishes! Meanwhile, the healthy food you ate is high-fiving every component in your body.
Thanks for that! You are absolutely right. I just need to change my mindset on it 0 -
I wear the clear inside and the tinted outside. These are great (cheap!!) for cycling too, impact resistant.

I end up cooking bacon at least once a week as my husband loves it and can afford the calories, but it always drives me crazy as I don't even like it that much. I'd probably never make it for myself and I never eat it when I cook it for him as it doesn't tempt me much. Can't wait to buy a house and have a proper range hood.0 -

I don't think I can find some I can eat - they'd have to be gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free... so it would be a lot of home experimenting and I think MANY failures before it was edible.

Sorry you probably told me but what is your name on Fitbit. I will see if you are in my challenge group @bkhamill0 -
My odd 3 song streak during my workout this morning:
What Was I Thinking by Dierks Bentley
What's My Age Again by blink-182
You've Got Another Thing Coming by Judas Priest
Oh and they just updated the Music app on my iPhone so I'm not sure I'm ever going to figure out how to work the shuffle
RIGHT?!? I was just fighting with that stupid thing on my run at lunch. I ended up listening to two songs over and over.0 -

I had a week long stall and slight bump upon the scale right before the woosh, I should be happy that I broke the stall, but I can't enjoy it...waiting for the scale to race back up..
Confession: Totally jealous!!! I want to eat chips and spinach dip and lose weight!!!

Accept the challenge through the fitbit app instead of through your e-mail...0 -

Today is the day the earth was farthest from the sun on it's annual orbit. The word is aphelion.
I tried to write a haiku about it for my boyfriend and it turned into a mini science lesson. So I tried again, same thing. Here they are, two geeky haiku for you.
Lackadaisical
Terra's annual zenith
Apogee reached
Kepler's second law
Max potential energy
Sun so far away
Bed for me. Hugs and cheers and heartfelt encouragement to those who need it.

I never heard of goodreads, I am going to check it out after I finish catching up. But if we share book recommendations it won't do much to link to me... I mostly read historical romances these days as my poor brain can't handle anything else.
I hope you do check it out. When you sign up, they show you books and you rate them. They ask you what genres you like and offer more that you can rate. After you've rated a lot or put interesting ones on your to read list, they are pretty on point with knowing what you like. It's all you. You can of course share recommendations with others, and there is even a forum where you can help strangers with their requests for recommendations; but your main page is for you and what you like. I love it.0
