    purplefizzy...Yes! You don't know excited I am to see another person join. (No offense Johns_Dope..you stuck with me and now we have a friend!) :P I know for me when I've thought of getting fit it's always been a negative thought thinking I'd have to sacrifice a lot but honestly I haven't much except in the way of quantity and trying to keep at least a mostly healthy diet. And if that little bit of sacrifice means i feel better and better every day and I'm losing weight...cool, I can do that. :) With this group I just thought taking pictures is a fun way to stay motivated and meet some people...awesome picture by the way! That looks AMAZING!

    Johns-Dope...AF is it? I don't know...can't see it right now. :P Thank you for playing right..your turkey burger looks absolutely horrible. :lol: Way to get that protein in though! ;)

    OCT 17 - PICTURE THIS: WEAR A SMILE WEDNESDAY!! LET'S SEE IT!!

    Look at this quote I found...
    “Smiling stimulates our brain’s reward mechanisms in a way that even chocolate, a well-regarded pleasure-inducer, cannot match.”

    Even chocolate cannot match! :smile:

    junodog1 that looks so good! I'm going to have to start making my food look prettier! Last night I cooked pork loin with jalapeno cream cheese stuffing but when I cut it today it was a little pink so I was too scared to eat it! So sad. I had a very simple salad and cottage cheese so needless to say, I'm looking forward to eating tonight! ;)

    It took me a few re-reads to figure out WTF that turkey burger was ;)
    I do heart the stats on some turkey, but I hide mine in 'double turkey veggie chili' served over roasted kabocha squash.
    Now I have to actually wash the sweat from my face so I can post a grin. Be back!

    That's awesome! I know in order to stay motivated you have to keep your mind fueled with inspiration. That's great you found something like that! I need to look for a fitness podcast that I could listen to while I work. Right now I listen to a lot of Tony Robbins though because it really gets my mind right about success in life in general. (I do get paid for that...jk, but that'd be sweet!)

    I love Tony Robbins!! He's the best, I've listened to almost all his audio books.You should check out that podcast i listen too! They do lots for women too. Tons of FREE info, I listen to it all day at work but then again I'm a fitness/nutrition nerd.

    I want to join y'all but not sure how to add my pic. My inspiration is my husband and my son. They keep me going even when I'm feeling down and out.

    Hi! That's a great inspiration. Family is the best. :) To add a picture just click on the "Attach Image" icon. If you're on a computer, it's above where you type (4th icon from the right). If you're on a phone (1st or 2nd icon from the right).
