Mitochondria

@SmashleyM914 Here are some screenshots of the spreadsheet! Do you have access to them while on vacation? If not I can try and update you nightly. BTW - great job kicking butt away from home! We've managed to just barely make it back into 2nd place. A lot of our big number ballers haven't logged yet though. I am super…

Challenge #3: The spice I used was nutmeg. I had nutmeg already, but I only use it if I'm making chicken alfredo. I figured alfredo isn't the healthiest to make - so I decided to sprinkle some nutmeg over my overnight chia seed concoction. It added a spicy nuttiness to it. All in all, not a bad random addition.

Evening smashers! I am so sorry for bailing on you guys this week - it has just been a super stressful time. I had a midterm on Tuesday and then a final for a 1/2 semester course on Friday. I'm kicking myself because I know if I had put forth the time and attempted to max out we would've probably been in the lead! Arghhh.…

@MissionEnforcer Challenge #1: I walked the 5k frostbite footrace. Frostbite is very fitting because it's been very chilly in VA lately. I choose to walk because I had my nephew in the stroller and running is not my favorite. Challenge #3: I left behind all alcohol, and I'm hoping to do so for the remainder of lent. This…

Phew, lots of posts to catch up on! Sorry I've been a little MIA this week guys - just so much going on. I haven't even been keeping up on logging my foods! Ugh. It's been a little rainy/windy in VA, but tomorrow and this weekend should be sunny so I'll knock out challenge #1 then. So far day 3/5 no alcohol. Not much of a…

Ugh, today was not my day Smashers :disappointed: I didn't meal prep over the weekend like I wanted to, so I skipped breakfast - bought a bunch of sweet delicious crap at a bake sale, ate some butternut squash soup, snacked on meatballs, and had a late 9:00pm dinner of... PASTA (and octopus). I was trying to do low carb. I…

Hey team! Can someone please put me for another 50 minutes today? I'm not by my laptop.

Thanks for the feedback guys! I'll probably try to steer clear of the heavy carb stuff regardless and just load up on fruit and veggies if I've got extra.

Right now I'm in grad school on the east coast and my boyfriend of 4 years is a pilot in the midwest. We both started working on our careers at the same time, and unfortunately neither of us were really willing to budge when it meant putting school or work on hold to be together. We did break up for about ~3-4 months but…

Will Smith, my celebrity crush of a lifetime. We would eat hot wings, papusas, homemade tres de leche cake topped with fruit, and frozen margaritas. Preferably do the love making before the meal so I'm not so bloated :wink:

Different ethnicity?: Yes absolutely. Colour?: Yes Disability?: Really depends on what type of "disability." I think I'd be more willing to date someone with a physical disability than someone with a mental disability (such as bipolar, depression, etc). I think that just comes down to being able to connect with someone -…

Car, but something durable with 4WD. Last thing you gave up on?

3rd grade teacher

Woohoo! Hot dog. We are on a roll, you guys. So proud of the smashers! Everyone has really stepped up their game this week. Team work makes the dream work!

Yes, definitely. I'm slowly transitioning to low carb - (started limiting to 100g last week, 75g this week.. end goal of 25g). Today my friend heated up her white rice and it was so pungent.

I'm in! Similarly, I can't remember the last week I went without alcohol. I've been meaning to go dry for awhile but keep putting it off due to events and other holidays.

Oh my gosh, that picture looked sooooo good! I'll probably make this at some point during the weekend. Thanks for the recipe

I got the Charge 2 for my birthday back in January and I absolutely love it! It's been a huge catalyst for me getting healthier. I love all the stats - knowing how much I slept, my heart rate, steps, miles/day, calories burned, etc. It's also synced to MFP which encourages me to log everyday. I just got a rose gold chain…

WHAT'S UP FELLOW SMASHER!!! lol. This looks like another good challenge to join! I'm excited to get started

You already have a great figure @xSkinnyFitx! I just took the bottom pictures today to compare to 2/8/17. Different lighting and angles, but I wore the same pants in both and they definitely felt less constrictive! One of my mini goals is to feel into those pants comfortably, and overall I want to reach my goal weight of…

This has been such an amazing challenge! I love each destination, side challenges, and all the support I get from my team. Thanks for putting it together @hawkins410 and @MissionEnforcer

Made a pretty bangin salad today! Fresh spring mix with veggies, feta, chicken, and balsamic dressing.

Hahaha you stalked out #1? You're cracking me up :lol: you CAN definitely beat her! I believe in ya lady. Let's go smashers LETS GO!!

I do! I love it! Saves me some time and there's no stress worrying about what calories are in this or that meal. I make a big thing of overnight chia seeds and coconut milk to eat throughout the week for breakfast. I alternate my weekly lunches, but it's usually some kind of protein and a veggie.

@lpeltenburg @darcijojo Happy Birthday Ladies!!! Here's some good ol' Italian cake :smile:

My boyfriend and I's four year anniversary is coming up this June and we've both become errr... more fluffier than when we first started dating. I was 135 back in 2013, my highest was ~160 in 2015, and now I'm down to 148. I want to get back to my best shape and inspire us to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Do you try to keep up with your macros? Some users, including myself, have found that when they play around with the macros (but keep the same calorie goal) they find the "sweet spot" that's most beneficial for their weight loss. For me, it's more protein and fat and less carbs. I also agree with what @VintageFeline said -…

@lynnbaum That salad looked so good! @darcijojo Good luck with C25K! I used the free version for as long as I could and then kinda just jogged on my own last year. I signed up for a 5k color run to motivate myself. Tomorrow will definitely be a laid-back yoga day for me. My everything hurts now. I am so sore from Zumba…

1st - congrats on the weight loss! That is awesome. Do you do well during the day because your away from your family? I think if having your family around is setting back your weight loss, you should probably kick them out. Kidding! So, I'm also in the same boat with my family. I'm the only one dieting and trying to…
