Taylorbree- They can be a lot of fun.....as long as it doesn't snow. LOL It snowed during the Shamrock Shuffle this time last year. It was downright cold.....and snowy. LOL

:)

I wish that there was a like button for the message boards! LOL

I'm doing my first 5K of my "race season" next weekend. It's called the Shamrock Shuffle. The only other race I have on the books is the Leaf Peepers Half Marathon in Oct. That will be my second half marathon. I'm hoping for a better time than my first one last year that was part of the Biggest Loser race series. It was at…

It looks there are some great losses this week! Way to go to Sarahbear, JAHMANRV, xbluehorusx abd brooke_e_m!!! You ladies rock!!!! :)

Sdereski- Beautiful moon shot! Cheryl- LOL I have no idea. I will leave which castles he would like to see up to him. It doesn't matter to me which ones. I think they are all pretty cool. KellySue- Love the puppy!!!! It's supposed to "warm" up here in Vermont too. Low to mid 20's today. Into the low-30's this weekend.…

Thanks Cheryl! I'm so excited! My BF loves castles and he wants us to go see some in England, Ireland and Germany. Hopefully we'll get there someday. :)

You go girl!!!! Awesome job!!!!

Good morning Cool Kids! Cheryl- Where is that? It's beautiful!!!! My weigh-in day was today. Down 1.6! Woo hoo! Go me! LOL Below 180 for the first time since I was breastfeeding my son 5 years ago! Okay, I'm just BARELY below 180 but I'll take it! :) Hope that everyone has a fabulous day and weekend!

Thank you!!!!! :)

I've seen the term macros come up a lot here and other boards. Can someone explain that term to me please? :) But to stay on topic I do "clean moderation". LOL

You go girl!!!!

That's great!!!!

Morning Kids! It was a balmy 37 degrees here in Vermont yesterday. The snow has started melting which is making all of us happy. LOL Did Yoga last evening, running after work today and then doing a boot camp at my friend's gym. Did do my KettleWorx DVD this morning as I plan to do those two workouts this afternoon. Hoping…

Morning everyone! Soooooo, did my KettleWorx workout yesterday morning and then did a boot camp class at my friend's gym last evening and THEN got up this morning and did my KettleWorx AGAIN. Needless to say, I'm a hurtin' pup today. Had to stretch my whole body in the middle of the night I was so sore. LOL And on top of…

Larro- that looks yummy!!!!!

Curious- I use the KettleWorx program. It's a set of DVDs from Beachbody. Dealing with Ryan Shanahan first thing in the morning before my coffee is a bit rough. Can't deal with someone that darn chipper first thing in the morning. Just ask my BF. LOL Larro- you are too funny! 84 degrees?! Geez! Where do you live? It was…

Can I just say again how much I love how supportive and nice everyone on this board is! It's such a nice change!!!!! :)

Morning everyone!!!! Actually got up this morning and did a KettleWorx workout and my MuTu workout. Hoping to be able to get into my friend's bootcamp class this evening after work. Yes, I am a glutton for punishment. LOL

Because all the bad stuff tastes sooooooo good! LOL

If OP had something, like Crohn's disease, that could account for the loss. When my BF had active Crohn's there was a lot of food that he couldn't eat because of it and he ended up losing a lot of weight. There are several medical conditions that can unfortunately do that to a body. Not that I'm trying to diagnose it's…

Sorry, that came out wrong. Some people, in my opinion, when they are posting science and statistics, present it in a way that can be very......for lack of better terminology, holier than thou. I read the science behind Whole30 and as much as I respect what the authors are doing, I didn't completely agree with some things…

RGv2- That does tend to happen a lot too. LOL Science/statistics are great but we all know that not everyone will have the same results. Information is great as long as it's information for people to be able to use and not thought of as gospel truth. LOL

Galgenstrick- I totally agree. My understanding of clean eating is the same as yours. I try to stick closely to it the best I can but I'm only human and do slip from time to time. LOL I've only been at this for about a year and there is a learning curve. I did Whole30 this time last year and had success with that and then…

I totally agree with you BEEJELBLOR! If you aren't into clean eating don't knock the people who do and just move on. Guerrillatiger- I've done Whole30 and it's pretty awesome! Once I was done with Whole30 I moved on to clean eating. I feel so much better doing clean eating and when I eat something that I "shouldn't" my…

Morning 40+ Cool Kids! Mind if I jump in? It's always good to have a support group of like-minded individuals who are also your age! :) This group seems so supportive of each other and I don't think I've seen that type of dedication and support in a group since I was on the Weight Watchers groups a million years ago (more…

Hi all! I have a cruise coming up in May and would love to be down about 10-15 more pounds for that. :) My weigh-in days are Mondays. So instead of 3/6 my next weigh-in to put in here will be 3/9?

Google "no-fail paleo mayo." It's made with an immersion blender. I bought my immersion blender for bulletproof coffee, but I found I LOVE making mayo with it as well. I used to make mayo in my blender. It took forever, drizzling the oil in ever so slowly, and my blender had a plastic jar which was a pain to wash after…

Hello all! I started out with Whole30 and then moved to Paleo and now do a combo of Paleo/clean eating. LOL Feel free to add me as a friend if you'd like. I love chatting with other people who are doing the same thing. Love new ideas and recipes. :)
