    We can, but isn't that a bit like lowering the bar just so you won't fail? :p

    Thanks @raymax4 :) Dad called me earlier and was bragging about how everyone had wanted some of his lunch but that he told them that he didn't want to share because it was yummy lol He's a goofball, but I love him :smiley:

    <3

    You need to post pictures of your meals so we can all drool :p

    Well, not with THAT attitude. We need some more WhatsApp OG's to post in here.

    Happy Thursday. I am ready for 2016 to be done. Tired of losing people this year. My girlfriend lost her dad just a few days before Christmas and he was only 56. We never know when our time will be, so love fiercely and often.

    On a brighter note, I have signed up along with several of us to do the 2017 in 2017 challenge. I know with all of us on the team we will reach our goal. This will be one of the motivating factors in my getting back to exercise.

    I thought about doing that, but I am chained to my desk about 6 or so hours a day and even when I park at the end of our parking lot, that only adds about 200ish steps. My goal is to get 5000 steps in each day and most of the time unless I just wander around at work, it's a cardio day, or we do a lot of shopping, I don't make it. I'm amazed at people that can get 20000+ steps in on a regular basis. @kelly_c_77 I'm looking at you!
    Thanks, Mo. I'm a nut though. My average is 40,000 now. :#

    Patricia, better leave me out of that 1-day Sunday challenge. I'm wheelchair bound at the moment and it would be a bit silly for me to be sitting at the bottom with zero steps!

    Oh no what happened?

    I've been using the Walmart grocery service for a few weeks, where you place your order online, and they bring it out to your car for you. It just dawned on me what the absolutely best part of the service is. My son cannot hit me up 100 times per shopping trip to buy him a toy, or Pokemon cards, or Nerf bullets, or...

    I'm never shopping in the actual store again! LOL

    I keep meaning to try this and I haven't done it yet. I really need to get on that! I really like shopping in the store though because I'm a weirdo and I like to see what's new too. Ah well.

    I LOVE grocery shopping. Would it be too weird if I said it's the highlight of my week? :D I'm like a kid at Disneyland at the grocery store!

    I like grocery shopping especially if I am alone and no one is rushing me.

    Your neighbor is a jerk. Don't let her/him stop you.
    Im so sorry about the shin splints they are awful, I had them once myself and they stopped me for awhile too. I was trying to progress to quickly and payed the consequence. Most of the c25k start slowly and work up. Don't skip ahead. That is what I did.
    You can also repeat weeks if you need to. It will take longer but will help you avoid troubles on the way.

    Yeah. I think that there was a whole lot of 'not about me' in her comment. :) I can't wait to get started, but I'll definitely be more aware of my limits.

    Im gonna try that sweet potato black bean quesadilla! I would have never thought of that myself.
    That would be defiantly for me since the rest of the household thinks sweet potatos are vile.

    This is the recipe I used--

    http://www.wellplated.com/sweet-potato-black-bean-quesadillas/

    I'm lazy though, so I just spray PAM on one side of the tortilla, load it up, fold them over, and then put them in the oven for about 12 minutes at 425 F or until they're nice and brown. :smiley: )

    I'm going shopping today I.ll get the ingredients. Ill probably try them on Sunday.
    Thanks for the recipe.

    You're welcome :smiley: Hope you like them!

    Maybe I will have to try this....in a chicken one, you would have cheese?

    Usually when I make quesadillas, its chicken, cheese, peppers and tomatoes.....if I omit the tomatoes, you think that would work?

    Yep, I add cheese. Cutting out tomatoes isn't necessary though. I personally add 1 can of drained diced tomatoes and green chiles to mine. Just throw them in the skillet for a few minutes with the chicken and it'll be tasty :)

    And there is not a thing wrong with that.

    I had a bit of an upswing this year, but then I realized something. Here's what the last three years look like:

    Year 1 Start: 189 lbs
    Year 1 End: 176 lbs
    Year 1 lowest weight: 171 lbs
    Year 2 End: 165 lbs
    Year 2 lowest weight: 160 lbs
    Year 3 (now) end: 150 lbs
    Lowest weight: 146

    So this is happening. It's slow, and I go up and down within a five pound range or so, but I'm going in the right direction.

    That's great progress.
