    Hi Aalley !!
    I've been wanting to come back to White Rabbits, but I've been going slow. I'm fighting with Greens right now. When I felt like I was ready to re-join a challenge before the summer started, Hogwart's was starting, so I joined that one. Tell me when you're starting a new one, I 'll see if I can join in. I have a bad/injured knee, so I was really hesitant to try challenges again, but I did okay with modifications, during the Hogwarts term :)

    Freggies is my biggest fight. Not exactly sure why ...

    Howdy. I have a LOT of weight to loose. I started 1 weeks ago and I am doing a smoothie for breakfast and dinner and then a big pescatarian lunch. So far >7#. I'm hoping to get some smoothie ideas. Looking forward to the festivities

    Hello, welcome, and nice to meet (a couple) of you, a couple of your names I recognize from previous challenges :).

    Welcome to GET YOUR GREENS CHALLENGE @jamcnewman @22DuathlonDon @Hotspur11 @Nutbugs2 ! Are you a Greens champion, like @SafariGalNYC , a Greens battler, like me, or something in between? :)

    Cheers,
    ~ mk :)

    hello I love different vegetables, but I don’t really know a lot about making smoothies and drinks to get my greens. So I’m looking forward to some recipes and ideas.

    Hello, @slstover35 ! I made my first smoothie bc of this group, after being 'smoothie-curious' for years ! SG in particular is a font of inspiration and brightness. I love it!

    From a post on my MFP wall :

    Rainbow2300 → mkksemail

    hi there! How do I join the Green Spring Challenge? I love the posts! So inspiring! Thanks Donna @mkksemail 😃🥦🌱❤️

    mkksemail

    Hi Rainbow/Donna! I know, I love those photos, SG and the others are such an inspiration to me! (Greens, and Freggies in general, are such a challenge/opportunity area for me). There're no hoops to jump thru to join in, just post in the thread! :)) You are MOST welcome. There are onlyh a few of us that post on the regular, so happy to have another on the freggies/greens journey. Welcome !! ~ MK/MaryK :) xx

    @Rainbow2300 , welcome to the journey! So happy to have another traveler on the verdant path :). Please just jump right into the Spring Challenge thread, and share/get inspiration. You can post with text, with pictures, however you like. The group is a greens focus, but all Nature Mades (as Mary aka @SafariGalNYC calls them), count, too! 

    Glad to have you. Xx (I'll tag you in the Spring Challenge thread, too.)

    Thank you @SafariGalNYC and thank you everyone for allowing me to be a part of your group!

    I did click join the other day. It lets me only view, not post, comment nor reply. I cannot join on my own or I won't be able to comment, etc. Now that you have invited me I can see now I can comment, reply and create. Thank you!

    I am new here. Hi everyone! I posted a green juice in recipe thread and I will paste it to the group here asap. I'm 55 female from NY. Please feel free to add me! Looking forward to participating and gaining more knowledge myself. :) Best, Jody

    Hello, Jody, and welcome ! Huh, I wonder if there's a setting I need to adjust or something, there aren't supposed to be any hurdles to posting, once you've joined. Apologies for your difficulties, and glad to have another traveler through the world of freggies join in! Xx

    Edit - I just checked the 'Edit Group' link, there aren't any options to change there, as far as post restrictions, etc 🤷‍♀️

    Hi Jody, I had a similar problem. See if you click this and scroll down to see the join button…

    ooooo, that is good info to have, @Rainbow2300 !! Can you give me more details? I can add something to the group description to help others, in future.

    @jodymaro1 , was that the permission problem for you as well? Rainbow reached out to me on my wall when she was having difficulty posting. It turned out she hadn't yet joined the group (she wasn't listed on the members list), tho on her end she thought she had. There's definitely something confusing about the process as far as the UI goes, b/c SG has mentioned in the past that others had trouble joining (that's why we made it public, to make it easier to join).

    I’m not sure. But I can now. :)

    when you join a group, the creator/admin usually has to accept your join before you can see it & post.

    oh okay. Thank you @filmgal30 !

    @mkksemail I think it was set to private when I originally tried to join but it could’ve been an older format/thread, not sure. Glad it’s working now. We all figured it out together! lol! So glad the sunshine is shining here in MA today! 😃☀️
