I'm basically resetting myself and starting anew. I've just spent 11 days walking the Cotswolds and I want to continue exercising and not lose what advances I made. I am committing myself (you can stop reading here if you like - LOL) to exercise daily 20 minutes minimum and logging onto MyfitnessPal daily to monitor my…
Hi team (are we still looking at the group page? I mostly look at your updates...) So I reach a milestone this morning, 10.7 lbs lost. Hurrah!! And I think I'm going to spend a few weeks maintaining this weight. I don't want to become too obsessed with weight loss, as opposed to overall healthy eating and exercise. So, for…
Here is a website that looks like it has some yummy recipes www.vegweb.com
Well week 3 was pretty good for me despite a couple of rough patches. I'm down 2 lbs which is encouraging. How is everyone else doing??
Hi team, how did everyone do this week? I made my calorie goals every day and did a total of 320 minutes exercise. (Actually, considering the amount of ice-chipping, snow shovelling, water-in-the-basement bailing, and digging-to-repair-the-hole-in-the-foundation-of-our-house, I think I probably did even more exercise than…

Hurrah! It looks like we've all hit the ground running this year. Okay, my Week 1 goals are: 1) 300 (or more!) minutes of exercise for the week. 2) track my eating and stay within calorie goals. If you don't see me posting then feel free to lecture me in person or via MyFitnessPal, whichever is more convenient for you :)

We had this for dinner tonight and it was awesome. I left the butter out but even with its only 291 cals/serving. If you don't like spicy you can scrape the seeds out of the peppers so there is less heat. We had it over rice but you could put it over pasta, in a wrap or use it at as filling for enchiladas. Chipotle Cream…
I hope work wasn't too busy last night! So, the 1st day of a new year. I am actually quite excited about this and our little group we have. I'm looking forward to celebrating our successes. Dave and I have made a pact of no food that is either delivered to the door or that you get at a drive through for the month of…
