    It's almost Valentines Day, and we need a reminder that we are loving ourselves and our bodies by eating healthily and moving as much as possible.

    Line dancing today. This is the only day I get in 12,000+ steps. WhooHoo!

    Have a great day, challengers!
    Stay strong!

    It is hard Marie to not eat all day when we are inside more. Thank you for the reminder!

    Yay congrats on continuing to reach your step goal. Luckily I walk to and from work (sometimes cycle) so that makes it easier to reach my goal every day. Back to spin class today!

    Linda UK.

    Here is one of them (Except for the banana, I use all frozen fruit)...

    Pineapple Berry

    1 frozen, peeled banana
    1 handful pineapple chunks
    1 ½ cups frozen mango chunks
    1 cup frozen mixed berries
    3 handfuls baby spring mix salad greens
    2 handfuls spinach leaves
    3 packets of stevia
    2 cups water
    2 Tablespoons ground flax seeds

    OPTIONAL: 1 scoop of protein powder

    Place leafy greens and liquid only into blender and blend until mixture is a green juice-like consistency. Stop blender and add remaining ingredients to blender. Blend again until the whole smoothie is a creamy consistency.

    Hello everyone. I would like to be part of this group. I have been working out fairly regularly (3-4 boxfit classes a week) and love the exercise. I can definitely see myself becoming stronger and have better cardiovascular endurance. My problem is with eating. I find that I start off the day well but by the afternoon I just start eating (crackers, chocolate...). My starting weight is 128lbs and I would love to weigh 108lbs (to be honest, I would even be okay with 114lbs). I know what I should and shouldn't eat but find that I have NO willpower.
