Oh I have already made jerky but Hubby just about finished the batch I made already. It was good. I am going to dry some peaches and apples this week. I would love some ideas if anyone has any for the dehydrator. Or any recipes that they have.
As far as the meat slicer It was great. Unfortunately I don't remember the seinfeld episode. I'll have to look it up somewhere. Hee hee. I sliced some turkey breast for sandwich meat or just to slice up in my salads. It is amazing how much a breast will slice up. Kids eat it just as a snack with crackers. It is great.
I am going to go buy a ham today and make some Wraps with wheat tortillas for the kids lunches this week.0 -

Morning Purple Team!!:drinker:
We're hoping to get the whole Purple team involved in chatting about there days, moments, weeks and anything else that comes to mind you'd like to dicuss to keep us motivated here!!
Weigh in day is Tues or at the latest Weds. early a.m.
How's everyone's week been going? Anything fun go on this weekend with my Fellow Purple Peeps?
Come on out and play....we've got so many on the team and we can hear it echo in here:sad:
We'd love to hear from you all....we're all in this together you know!!:drinker:0 -
Monday some of us were discussing what to do as a goal today...
We came up with trying to get all our daily water in today. I normally don't have an issue with that but am planning on actually making sure I do get enough in especially during workouts.
Anyone interested in joining us in this? Just a very casual, but important daily goal. We can check back in at the end of our day...depending on what time zone everyone is in...we can just give a shout out and let others know how we're doing or if there's anything other members here can do to help make it easier.:happy:
Is there anything any one needs from the rest of us Purple Team Members????? Even if one of us is struggling a bit..it'd be great to bring it over here to not feel so alone...each day is a new challenge for each of us. Having a like minded group makes it easier not feeling so alone.:drinker:
We'd love to cheer you on if you're having the best week ever as well!
:drinker: :drinker: We LOVE OUR PURPLE TEAM....cause WE ROCK!:drinker: :drinker:0 -
Good morning everyone!
Only working 1 job today. YES! :bigsmile: It's funny how much that effects your mood on a Monday.
I'll be heading to the local college after work today to check out classes and prices. I'm really excited to be getting that part of my life. I leave for my vacation in Texas in 2 weeks. I'm actually pretty bummed because when I scheduled the trip, I had planned on being down about 15lbs by now but I'm happy with my 6. Plus I still have 2 weeks. :happy:
I will try to do P90x Plyo tonight or maybe Kenpo depending on what mood I'm in, and also get these dishes done. My house is getting so chaotic!
Best wishes today! :flowerforyou:0 -
Good Morning Purple Team!!!!:flowerforyou:
Today is a new day!!!!!!! I am in on the water deal...I need to drink at least 64 ounces today. I have a weight watchers mug that holds 32 ounces, I just drink two of those and my water is done. I really don't have a problem getting my water in during the week, because I sit at a desk all day I drink water all day, but at home I never think about it!!!!
This week my goals are to drink water every day :happy:
Exercise at least 45 min every day :happy:
Be patient and kind to everyone :happy:0 -
Hello Hello Purple People!
Last night I went to Chili's. I feel like I overate but I stayed within my calories!!! Today I am trying to get over the overfull feeling I still have from last night.:ohwell:
I have not had a day where I have not been working out this week, so I am hoping I can rest some today. I am excited for weights/ measurements tomorrow!!! :bigsmile:
I am actually teaching class today praying my pants don't end up around my ankles!!!!:blushing:
Stay tuned for details.0 -

Hey there -
We have the same weekly goal ... :bigsmile: (waterwise)
This weekend I got me a bottle water of 64oz ... I've got less than 1/3 left to go ... This really helped me today, I usually only have 32oz daily. I plan on using it always ... :blushing:0 -

Yearning to know the details ... lol
Great Job in staying within your limits ... takes alot of self-control, well at least for me it does ... :blushing:0 -
Okay I am back. It was great. Nothing like riding on the open road..:laugh:
We went to Best Buys in Chico and I found a Jullian Michael's Shred for 13.00. So I bought it and stuck it down my pants under my shirt on the way home.:laugh:
It was great. We went to chili's for lunch and I had the chicken enchilada soup and a salad. Not to bad for lunch. Hubby at the onion stack and it is like over 2000 calories ouch. But he didn't care. But I just had 3 glasses of water and it was great. Didn't feel to bad about it.
I have set myself a new challenge I am staying away from sugar until I hit 185lbs. Then I will splurge once. Then set a new goal. I have been snacking late at night with sugary foods. Needs to stop. So hopefully this will help.
Well I am going to try the shred now and then do the treadmill.
No volley ball games today.

Alright I knew that we Purple were out there somewhere..
Tina- way to push yourself. "Sore today, Thiner tomarrow." :drinker: :drinker:
Welcome to the purple team. I googled " purple team" and saved it to my pictures then adjusted it. I don't know where Tina got hers but Love IT.
My friend didn't call me until this afternoon to workout so We are walking outside today about 4.5 miles.
Then I will come home and do Tae bo..
Go Purple.
Melissa
I got mine from a previous thread, someone said we could use it....so I did....
Hee-hee, it was me! Made it myself. You are more than welcome to use it. Here it is:

Okay. OK. I'm so
for not posting more to my own teammates! I promise to do better.
Anyway...I'm sure we all do it. You know, we have those days where we know we have to go to the gym and make ourselves go, then we get there and just go through the motions. We don't give it 100%. Well, today, I am proud to say that I gave it 110%! Yayee me. I don't know why, but Mondays always seem to be some of my best workout days. How about you? What percentage did you give today?0 -
:drinker::drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:
:flowerforyou: So how'd everyone do with their water goals Monday?:drinker:
I had a crashing headache most of the day...so took today as a rest day from the gym, but back on Tues. for a couple hours.
My water goal I'll keep as a daily goal...I normally get plenty in but seems as it's gotten colder I noticed I'm not drinking quite as much...just want to keep track to see how much I'm actually really taking in these cooler days.

I am a new member of Team Purple and happy to join you all.
I need to get exercising - I've been doing great with food/caloric intake but not so great with water and BAD with exercise. It's hard to find time with chasing my kids around (soccer mom-you know how we are)0 -
Ugh, working both jobs today, so I'm not sure if I'm going to get a workout in. I won't get home til 10ish tonight. Maybe if the bf doesn't mind hanging out in the bedroom I can squeeze in a Shred and shower. I hate sacrificing sleep though, because I end up falling asleep at my day job. I'll figure something out. It doesn't help that I missed breakfast this morning and don't have anything with me for a dinner.
Stop complaining! :laugh:
I WILL do Shred tonight.
I WILL find something for dinner and eat BEFORE Job 2 is over.
I WILL stop eating these tootsie rolls at work. :blushing:0 -
a really pop in for a HULLO GANG!! Have a super weigh in everyone.....will send mine either today or early Weds.:drinker: :drinker: :drinker:0

I sent mine in this morning. Welcome Chrissy. Glad you could join out team.
You can do it Rach. You got the power of us purpleys behind you.
I on the other hand did shred Lv 1 for the first time yesterday after I did 40 minutes on the treadmill.
OH MY GOSH. :noway: I about died. It didn't help that I had hubby and 2 kids on the couch saying things. I told then they could join in any time and that shut them up. :laugh: But then they kinda pushed me when I wanted to stop for a bit. So it kinda helped too. But boy am I a little soar today. What a workout.
One question though I logged Shred as Circuit training general. Is that about right?
With my treadmill workout and shred I burned 580 calories. :bigsmile:
Today I will do Lv 1 before I do Turbo Jam. And see if it gets better.
I can't wait to see the results.
Have a good day everyone.

I checked in this morning. I need some ideas for quicky workouts because they just aren't happening. I feel like I am always on the run to a tennis match or baseball game (to watch my kids) or a softball tournament for my husband. I can't do any of the above until I regain strength in my arms. Last time I tried to play tennis I tore scare tissue from my breast reconstruction - OUCH for a long time. I thought about a Wii Fit but I am not a "gamer" so not sure there-I don't want to waste the money.0

This is my first week. I just joined the purple team. I can't wait to get to update my ticker to show I've lost. Today wasn't the best. But I'm looking forward to tomorrow. I'm going to start exercising! Go Purple! Go me!
