  • Well I wasn't a kid when this happened but here goes... I was a Korean Linguist in the Army. I happened to be the only black female in my company and my best friend was the only black female in her company (she was a Korean linguist also). One day while we were stationed in Korea we were on the bus back to our base after a…
  • E-A-G-L-E-S- EAGLES!!
  • Yeah I had to get used to the taste of the Truvia in my coffee but I'll sprinkle it in with my veggies too. I recently threw out my bacon grease container! I buy the Carolina Pride sliced ham and then put about 5-6 slices in plastic baggies and freeze the excess. Then I'll just take a bag out of the freezer as I use what's…
  • Great progress! I live in the south too. I have found Truvia (natural sweetener) and use lean ham to flavor my veggies. I totally understand cutting the "tart" from vegetables. I was tought very young to add sugar to my veggies! :laugh: Oh and I used Italian seasoning on EVERYTHING!! It gives food so much flavor. Keep up…
  • Hi Kristen! I have participated in 2 of your previous challenges. Unfortunately I had to drop out both times because of "life". Not that I didn't have the motivation. If you'd have me I'd love to give it a go again. :blushing:
  • I live in SC and when you order a Coke it means a Coca Cola. Now one difference I know of is here in the south when you order tea you're given a sweet tea. When I lived in California and ordered tea I was given unsweetened tea. I went to the doc recently because of some knee pain. When I told him that my knee felt "wonky"…
  • I make individual foil packets for each piece of fish. Add the thawed filet and seasonings. I use a little EVOO, Mrs. Dash Lemon Pepper, a little fresh parsley and a splash of lemon juice. Loosely close the packets and bake in 350 degree oven. My filets only took about 10-12 mins to cook. They were very tender and flaky…
  • Here's to the success of the half way mark :drinker: and to the rest of the journey:drinker: You are JAWSOME!
  • YES! What a relief it is! I am so tired of when I tell people this they think that I am making it up! My son's old school is next to a park with a track that goes around the lake there. I tried to walk the track there once and about halfway around my legs were on FIRE! I wanted to scratch them so bad but it was right next…
  • You've put on some muscle! Great job. Just imagine what the results of the 2nd round will be!
  • Great challenge supported by a great quote. This journey is just as much mental as it is physical. I am looking for a COMPLETE makeover and negative thoughts are out!!:happy:
  • What an impressive start as a group. Congrats to those with lower weights and to those who've maintained. For those in the group with me who've had a slight setback let's keep motivated and know that one weigh in won't break us. One week at a time!:bigsmile:

  • Congrats on your accomplishment. :drinker: What helps me with getting thru the thread is to bookmark it everytime you come so that the link will pick up from the last page you read. If not it will take you back to the place where you first bookmarked it and you have to find your place again.
  • Shadowkitty what a great way to start off this new challenge and you have every right to be proud of yourself. Congrats on your success and keep pushing!:flowerforyou:

Good luck everyone on attacking your…
