Seems like everyone is going through a bit of a rough patch. @bregalad5: That is certainly a exciting yet scary weekend! Alright everyone I challenge you all to get back on track this week! Let's see how many pounds we can shave off as a group!

Hi all and hope your weekend is going well! @trailgirl777: You're doing great! It's normal for your weight to fluctuate during the week even when you're doing all the right things. Just keep doing the right things and the losses will continue. If they stop altogether, it could be a plateau and time to change things up.…

LOL They are very hard on the knees! Grrr. Did my third arugula recipe tonight... wilted in butter and lemon. Meh... spinach is better. :) How did everyone else do this week?

Hi everyone! I'm sensing a "cooling off" period. I've had a rough week and I made the mistake of not reaching out to you guys to help push me through! I haven't been as good about logging my food and it's keeping from being accountable! Yikes! I hadn't taken the elevator at work since Tuesday of last week and this morning…
-
I really need to try those recipes! I love brussel sprouts! I'm behind in my jumping jacks too but I'll catch up this weekend. I'm 2 for 3 in the "greens" challenge. Doing the 3 Saturday. How is everyone else coming along?
-
I've got to try that brussel sprouts recipe! Sounds delicious! I forgot my jumping jacks yesterday so I"ll catch up today :) I did do them in my basement on Tuesday with my husband looking at me wondering what the heck possessed me to jump out of my chair and do jumping jacks. LOL Arugula made its way into my salad so…
-
Good morning! So I added arugula to my homemade tomato/meat spaghetti sauce last night. It didn't taste bad but I wouldn't do it again. Not sure if it's the texture or what but something didn't work. LOL On to the next attempt!
-
Good morning everyone! Welcome to all those who have joined us and those who are back to MFP after a slight hiatus. :) It has been 1 week since I last stepped into the elevator at work. It's hard first thing in the morning to climb up 4 flights but I think just the idea that it would be so much faster and simpler to take…

Welcome one and all and Happy Monday! It was hubby's birthday weekend for me and I made homemade lasagna. Well... I ate so much that I nearly made myself sick. I had forgotten what a terrible feeling that is! I certainly won't be doing that again! :) Have a great week everyone and @prof_newme I assume you got the link ok?…
-
Niiice! I just did mine in my office (that I share with 2 people). One joined in the other chuckled! LOL @bregalad5: Do it! There's always room for modifying things to make them fit your life! I've been looking up recipes for arugula and other than salads, there aren't many. We'll see how things go!
-
Let me know what you come up with! Maybe we'll use that in a future challenge!
-
@bregalad5: I would have been happy too if you hadn't found it before I got your message! LOL

-
Good morning! @globug68: That's a tough one for sure. For me, it depends on why I'm not feeling motivated. If I'm tired, there isn't much I can do to get myself out of it. I make the best choices I can in my current state of mind. Other times, I try to trick my mind into telling me that I'm craving something healthy. Last…
-
Woot! I'm glad you're with me! Last time I did this jumping jack challenge, I did them in my cubicle at work, in the parking lot before getting in my car and in my backyard. It was hilarious! @hippychick: If leafy greens don't agree with you, are there any other green veggies that do? If not no worries... I started this to…

Hi Noreen and welcome to all who are new here! @didjaever: I forbid you to beat yourself up about this! LOL You are a fabulous and motivational person who CAN and WILL do this!

@want2behappy31: You go girl! One day isn't a tragedy! We will have these days, every one of us and it's OK! It's really how you react and get back on track that makes a difference and you've got the right attitude! Outrun that storm!!! :) This morning I got to work and decided I'm going to try to NOT take the elevator at…

Good morning and welcome to all new people! I've discovered arugula! LOL I know that sounds funny... I knew it existed but figured I wouldn't like it. I bought a pre-made salad kit at the grocery store without realizing it was arugula and LOVED it!. I had blue cheese crumbled on top with some dried cranberries and walnuts…

Gratz bregalad! Awesome win for you! Gratz to you also Hippychick for doing the shred! I got up this morning an hour before my alarm, laced up my runners and took the dog for a walk in the beautiful sunshine! Ok, so it wa chilly and snowed a bit... but hey! the sun was out and I was walking! :)
