Hi there, just joined and looking forward to meeting new people. 1) I taught myself how to knit, and have been doing it for 10 years 2) I drive a manual shift, and am proud of it 3) I am a vegetarian who's favorite food is pizza

Hi there everybody, my name is Renee and my superpower is clumsiness. Watch as she trips on carpet with nothing in front of her, dazzle when she falls up stairs, and be mesmorized as she falls on her butt with no provocation. I'm a dorky/nerd by nature with a crazy work and school schedule, but I am really looking forward…

Whovian (been watching since the 4th doctor) and Sherlock (love love love Cumberbatch in Trek and Sherlock)

I am a devoted Whovian (been watching since the 4th), also devoted to anything Joss Whedon (in Whedon we trust). Used to be a gamer, but went back to school for nursing and have no free time :( Love to read and watch Sci-fi in my free time. Love Cos-play and all those shinanegans. Soooo... I think I qualify.

I turned 30 last August and I have let myself get into the worst shape of my life. I am extremely dissappointed in myself because a couple years ago I was in the best shape I have ever been. I started nursing school and stopped working out. With the stress of exams and clinicals, I have been stress eating and even stopped…

Hey everybody! I did really well with food this week. I made sure to eat a really great breakfast every day. I did crunches and squats when I could, even though I forgot to track them. I am still behind on the actual workouts though. I am going to dedicate this week to improving that effort. I weighed myself yesterday and…

Renee - Yellow Team 5/1/2013 - Healthy Breakfast Plain eggs over easy with toast, I added low sodium light popcorn flavoring for character and extra taste. I also use low sodium, low fat butter for the toast.

Week 1 - didn't go so well. I lost one of my jobs and ended up comforting myself with beer after getting home from my second job. I used this part-time job as my exercise since I am on my feet all day. I didn't go out of my way to track because I felt guilty and depressed. I also didn't eat fish because I am a vegetarian.…

Hey there, Thanks for messaging me. I actually didn't have a chance to weigh in this week. However, I am getting a physical at the doctor today and I will get all my stats updated today. I will try to do better with the challenge next week. Renee

4/23/13 - I took a rest day, and then ended up eating too much. Kinda bummed.

4/22/2013 Monday 1) no cardio yet 2) I walked for a total of what I would consider 4hrs. (walking, sweeping, mopping, and cleaning at work) I am going to count this as my one new excercise. I started a new job in retail and I am counting that on my log because I only work a few days a week there and the rest of my week is…

I weighed in today. I am 187.2 down from original 190.

Renee I am on the Yellow Team Greek Pasta with Tomatoes and White Beans found on AllRecipes.com Greek Pasta with Tomatoes and White Beans found on AllRecipes.com Ingredients - Serves 4 2 (14.5 ounce) cans Italian-style diced tomatoes 1 (19 ounce) can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed 10 ounces fresh spinach, washed and…

Good evening everybody, My name is Renee, I am on the Yellow Team. In this picture, I am the one in purple. Currently 190lbs, and not liking this at all. The side view is were you can really tell that I hold all my weight in my hips an butt area. I also have some other "before" picture, but they are of my in a bathing suit…

Don't beat yourself up so hard. Some of us slip. We are all human. I am not looking forward to the first weigh in because I have a wedding to go to tomorrow. I will try to be as good as possible, but weddings never have the best food choices. Plus there is always lots of booze flowing. Wish me luck girls.

Good morning everybody! I'm happy to be a part of an enthusiatic group. I have never done a Biggest Loser challenge before, so i'm nervous. I am a 29 year old nursing student, I will be turning 30 this year and I want to be in great shape. I turn 30 in August so I joined this challenge to get a good start on my progress…

Hey there everybody, I am starting my spring cleaning this week so I am going to use that towards my pre-game excercise. I also have a yoga dvd and a gym membership. I am going to try to get to the gym to walk for 45 min a day. Good luck everyone! Renee

Good morning, I tried to open the google doc, but the link is not working. I usually have access and have a google account so I'm not sure what might be wrong. Please help. Thanks Renee
