That's ok, I had a virgin margarita last nite with a friend (totally not on my diet) and jumped up 2 pounds overnight! Oops! (3496 mg of salt in a margarita per MFP). Live and learn. Keep at it!

Welcome to the group

Mental health is really important too!!

Do you have a recipe for the cabbage and eggs? Not a combo that would have occurred to me, but I’ll give it a try. I want to try a red lentil soup recipe that I saw on tv this week. The other things that were heavily rationed in WW2 were fats and meats. 2 ounces of butter per week (1/2 a stick), 2 ounces or margarine (that…

We are all getting tired of snow here in Iowa. Gotta feel for you Southwesterners and of course, the shocked Hawaiians! :) Good luck with that thesis project! ~ Carol

I wish I could give you more than one hug. :) Without being preachy, let me share one of my favorite quotes from St. Teresa of Avila -- “Let nothing disturb you, nothing frighten you, all things are passing, God is unchanging. Patience gains all; nothing is lacking to those who have God: God alone is sufficient.” Remember…

Just finished doing that! Good luck!

The edit is the little gear in the upper right corner of your post. You have one hour from post time to complete any edits.

Same here. Meal prep and bringing my own lunch/snacks helps me stay on track. Also helps my pocketbook. I try to get everything thing into my food log in the morning and just tweak as needed during the day. By the way, you are doing great!

It goes by faster than you can possibly imagine

Each Challenge is 12 weeks, usually with a break in between each. We're glad you are joining us!

I'm so jealous! I'm stuck at home until after April 15 (tax day)!

Last challenge session was really rough! Most of us were all over the place on weight and I think I actually gained 4 pounds (ack!). A bunch of the group dealt with injuries and illness too. Now that the holidays are behind us, I’m hoping we all make progress. You are so consistent with working your plan, especially…

Wow! Good job!

Sorry you are unwell! Feel better soon!

Another good quote! I'm assuming you start will all fresh veg since you only mention canned tomatoes? Sounds like a warm winter soup! I read once that warm foods, like soup tend to be more satisfying than cold.

Nice quote! Can you give us a link to the meditation app?

Welcome to the group. We are all very supportive. Some of us have large amounts that we would like to lose and some are almost to maintenance but we are all on a journey and we are glad that you are here to share yours!

Welcome to the group. As long as you are consistent with your weigh in date, you can weigh in whatever day works for you. My husband is also along for the ride. He and I don't eat the same things, but we have a similar goal. Regarding finding the group, now that you are a member, it should always be on the group tab under…
