    Hi Killahs. Sorry I haven't been on the thread, long crazy day with work and family. I met my water challenge too!! Would you guys be up for some kind of exercise challenge over the weekend? I'm still new to these, but that might be a good motivator!!

    @LJ - How exciting you were on the radio!! We now have a celebrity on the thread!!! :smile:

    @Loopy - You got another vote for "Thread is sleeping, thread is sleeping, Where are you? Where are you?":tongue:

    @Loopy and @Zave. - How about a third person on earth not on Facebook!! Never tried it, but who needs it with MFP?:laugh:

    @Tannie - hope your day was okay, and you will be on tomorrow!!

    Have a nice rest everyone, talk to ya in the AM.

    :smokin: The FRIDAY KILLAH THREAD CHALLENGE IS~~~~~~~Eat 5 Different Colors On One Meal, if possible. You can use more than one meal if you need to, but Ithink 5 Colors in One Meal would be AWESOME!!

    Well, you guys are truly an inspiration!! I got my teenage boys the usual Friday night, pizza shop takeout, but made myself a delicious salad to meet the challenge:

    Romaine Lettuce - Green
    Sliced Hard Boiled Egg - Yellow and White
    Grape Tomatoes - Red
    Baby Carrots - Orange
    Sliced Almonds - Brown

    Well I am off to visit my Mom, so I don't think I'll make it back on the killah thread tonight. Good luck to everyone with the challenge. Catch up with you all tomorrow. Thanks again for the motivation!! :wink:

    I think I killed 3 threads today. I'll give them a couple more days, but yeah. I think I got 'em.

    ETA: I DID eat a meal that had 5+ colors in it today. Unfortunately, it was a Smart Ones TV dinner. *shrug*

    Thanks, LJ, for that challenge, and good morning to the killahs! I haven't had my coffee yet, as I am meeting a friend for breakfast, but I did get my exercise done:

    Brisk 20 minute walk with my dog - 76 calories
    EA Active Sports 2 - 42 minute work out - 277 calories

    Total calories - 353

    Good luck to everyone else, and enjoy your Saturday!

    Way to go Rachel!

    I did a one hour bike ride. 623 calories total. Which I'll need going out for dinner tonight.

    It is finally starting to feel like spring.

    Nice job, killer burn, Killahs! :flowerforyou: :drinker:



    Doh - except for me. :embarassed: Short by quite a bit - ran yesterday, still not up to running on adjacent days, so I just did a little bit of strength training, came in under 100 per HRM. Rest assured I have not been sedentary all day :laugh: I walk around on Saturdays (Farmer's Market and errands), but don't log it b/c same activity level prior to trying to get healthy.

    I am checking in. Being without the internet at my fingertips is very hard. lol. I gaining back a weight rather than losing because there is nothing to do except fight with my kids. and that gets old and stressful. Which makes me want to eat. Vicious cycle. The only thing that keeps me busy is the book I am writing. And I can only do that for so long a day. lol. Ive been averaging about 4,000 words a day. Im hoping to be finished by next week. Imagine being so bored as to write a whole novel in 2 weeks. I could have it done even now if I have tried. lol.

    Good to see everyone is doing well and actively killing! :laugh:

    WOW - that is seriously super productive! I salute you!

    Sorry about the gain - I don't have kids, but I agree about 'stress' being a factor. Hang in there - we're here for you. Not letting your thread die!!! :laugh:

    :happy: It is almost Midnight here, so I will post a Sunday Challenge for you Killahs if you choose to take time off your killing work.

    Good morning, group, hope everyone is well.:drinker: I woke up with a nasty cold this morning, and I am doing a 3K walk today, a charitable thing for a local soup kitchen. I think it is going to a long day!! :noway:

    So my NSV's - I have two to share: one is being able to move around so much easier. When I was at my heaviest, I had extreme joint pain in my knees, and going up and down stairs, even getting out of chair, caused pain. No more!! It's great...:smile: The second: I am now off my daily heartburn medicine!!

    Happy Sunday, everyone!!

    Rachel, I hope that your 3K went well and that you are feeling better.
    My Hubby and I walked a little over 4 miles this evening before Dinner. I needed to burn off the Fish And Chicken Church Dinner we had today:laugh: It was delicious, of course, but I am glad that I don't eat like that very often.

    Sounds like a nice day, Killahs, all around!

    Rachel - saw your post on the News Feed so looks like you toughed it out and did your 3K - and for a good cause! Bravo!

    This is not so impressive, my main NSV thus far has been going from anticipating the 'rest' days between runs to really looking forward to the run days and not being so excited about the days off (for strength training). :laugh:
