Hey, Good Non all my Challenger! Let's face it we are all MFP junkies! But as good as MFP is we still need to broaden our horizons to learn more and to keep ourselves up to date on new information. I think one important aspect is to prevenT BOREDOM!!!!!!! So these are a couple websites I like for inspiration and some to give correct information not just 'rumor'. Share yours.
http://www.fitbolt.com/
http://greatist.com/
http://www.calorieking.com/
http://www.oxygenmag.com/
www.eatright.org
http://shrinkingjeans.net/

Challenge: give a website and pick at least one you will make a favorite and visit weekly to learn more on this fitness and health journey!

Peace,
WW

    I actually use Pinterest for inspiration. There are some links to workouts I never would have seen, and some really awesome motivational posters/photos!

    Ooooo, this is a tough one! After all the false websites, I've been sticking to MFP, about the only other one I go to is for recipes when I'm cooking for other people and I haven't found the recipe I'm thinking of in their magazine (which I have a subscription to) and that's Cooking Light (http://www.cookinglight.com/)
    I'll have to do some web surfing I guess!

    I tend to use Livestrong and Endmondo and Sparkpeople for learning. I read the articles that get sent to me. You have seen me post them from time to time.

    Currently a friend got me interested in shrinkingjeans.net I am doing the Fab-abs-January. Each day there is a routine of sit-ups, push-ups, and plank that gradually increases as the month progresses. Today was 50 sit-ups, 20 push-ups and a 1 minute 15 second plank. It was rough. But I am seeing results!

    I like allrecipes.com. I can search my main ingredient or side dishes and most of the recipes include the nutritional information as well. I too use pintrest and fitbit.com
