    Hello fellow black team members!

    I am going to try to post some replies to all the posts on here. I take a multi-vitamin, a B-12 supplement and a calcium pill. I am thinking about adding fish oil, but not sure I want to. I have heard that it is good for the skin. Need to check into that.

    I love to drink water so 8 cups is actually really easy for me. Somedays I actually drink about 20 cups of water. It is giving up the Coke that is hard. I easily drank 4 or 5 of them most days!

    I have ate a banana, lettuce, green peppers and I suppose salsa doesn't count does it? :laugh:

    Have a great day everybody and be proud of yourselves for getting healthier!

    Oh my goodness Amanda! If you gave up your Coke addiction, do you realize how many calories you'd save yourself a DAY! That would be a BIG difference!

    I still am on prenatal vitamins since I am breastfeeding but other than that, not much! I try to get all I need from food. The omega/fishoil though I'd like to look into b/c I think it is supposed to be really good for your heart. I think...

    Vanessa - Good luck going back "home"! I hope you & the bf can make it work, but only if you think it is what is best for you & little Owen! Have a lovely weekend! :flowerforyou:

    Hey,

    I was thinking...


    We should all take before pictures and when the challenge is done take after pictures!

    I think that would be pretty nifty. :laugh:

    Marla this is what I did

    Arm
    Chest at biggest point
    under breastuses
    at the smallest part of your waist, or where you bend
    at the belly button
    on the widest part of your hips (:sad: )

    I also did my thigh...cuz I had to see if it gets any SMALLER:cry:

    Hope this helps my friend!:heart:

    It is just getting started. We are going to weigh in by the show each week...wed I am sure.

    We are taking this week to kinda gather ourselves and get organized. Did you send your weight to Bo?
    She is keeping the weights logged.

    I think we are going to have a challenge each week...other than just weight loss.

    Laura suggested eating our veggies this week. She said 3 fruits/veggies. For some this will be hard, for others it is a snap...next week someone else will come up with a challenge.

    If you read thru some of the threads, we have had some fun too! Simon Says got started yesterday and we had a good time checking in and doing some!!

    :flowerforyou: :heart: :flowerforyou:
