@EMsweetgrl1: I'm interested in a November challenge if you set one up!

I'm in as well! Perfect timing for me to ride my current wave of motivation/renewed diet excitement. In the past 8 months I've lost 22lbs, with 21 to go. :) Currently 165lbs... 150lbs by Christmas would be fantastic. Good luck to everyone. Thanks for the push, OP. x

This recipe looks wonderful {so does the meal/calorie allotment}. Thank you!

{Easy but Delicious} Chicken Tacos 4 large chicken breasts 1 cup chicken stock 1 can Rotel (or salsa) 1 packet taco seasoning *Cook on high for 2 hours, low for 3. Shred chicken when tender. I skip the tortilla shell & opt for a bed of lettuce instead. Enjoy!

eggs. just ew.

bump! thanks for the resource!

I have! Although macabre and tragic, it's one of the most beautifully written books I've ever read. Some people can just weave a tale and make it memorable and all-consuming. What an unbelievable talent.

Awesome! I haven't read any of these yet.

It really, really is! check it: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9722219-the-restorer

Discovery of Witches has been one of my favorite reads so far this year! I would highly recommend 'The Restorer' by Amanda Stevens (part of the Graveyard Queen series) - it's similarly smart, mysterious/suspenseful, with a well-written plot and likeable cast. You'll thank me for those bags under your eyes when you simply…

-lose 21 lbs by 9/1 -join a yoga class (i'm shy but I love it) -complete my very first 5k (THE COLOR RUN) 7/15 -do something active every day (even something small) -work on my kindness, intelligence, and perspective in proportion to health/fitness. should be a great summer! x

sleeping in. pinterest crafting. manicure sundays. a new favorite song. a new favorite book. kitty/fiancé snuggling. open window weather. knitting night (tuesdays). the perfect cup of tea before bed. family gatherings, (every weekend). dreaming up the next chapter of my book.

great topic! bump

bump.

new favorite breakfast, i can tell! bump.

Just for today I'll run just for the fun of it. Just for today I promise to drop all the stress and negativity that follows me home from work and focus on being present in the moment. Happy. With friends and my little family {Sam + Leinie(kitty)}

My chant when I feel like giving up at the end of a hard run!!!
