Sorry for the late check in. If it can still be counted, I had 9 points for team Carol.

Bonus Point #2 - I did this brutal Fitness Blender HIIT workout - an oldie, but a goodie - https://www.fitnessblender.com/videos/when-i-say-jump-hiit-total-body-toning-and-hiit-cardio-workout

Bonus Point #1 - I work from home full time, so not roaming into the kitchen and grabbing whatever looks delicious can be challenging. A couple of things to combat this - when I do walk into the kitchen, I drink a glass of water first, then I assess if I'm really hungry, or just bored or whatever. If I really am hungry I…

Really?? What's that recipe? Love, love sweet potatoes!

Our favorite is to lightly coat with mayo, sprinkle with lemon juice, pepper to taste and top with parm cheese and bake. This is best on swai and salmon IMO.

They're super yummy in coleslaw too instead of cabbage. Trim and shred 1/2 pound, mix with 2 TBS mayo, 1/2 tsp sugar, handful of shaved baby carrots and 1/2 TBS balsamic vinegar with black pepper to taste. We had 18 plants in our garden last year. My teenage daughter liked to trim the leaves, spray with cooking oil and…

our favorite is chuck roast, a jar of salsa verde and an onion. Cook on low for 6-8 hours. Makes the yummiest street tacos we've ever had!

That's awesome & inspiring! Great job and thanks for sharing!

My husband and I went dancing last weekend. I wore a sexy LBD, he told me I was 'head turning' and 'fierce'. I felt as if I was dancing on cloud 9 all night!

That's wonderful - congrats and kudos for all your hard work!

BP #1 My husband suffers from gout; salt is one of his main triggers. One strategy we use to cut down on these is to avoid pre-processed foods. I've learned how to make from scratch cream of chicken soup, enchilada sauce, soup stocks and many other things that have crazy amounts of sodium (often more than the RDA in a…

Right there with you guys! Have a great week all!

Bonus #1 - For me it was a picture, a Christmas picture with all our 5 kids, their partners and kids. I looked like a frumpy fat grandma! That was two years ago, since them I'm down about 15 pounds (12ish #s thanks to MFP). 4 pounds to go to my original goal weight, but thinking I may push that down a bit...maybe 9 more to…

You got this TJ!!

Bonus Point 1 - I'm using Intermittent Fasting along with daily exercise to drop the weight. This has really worked well for me. If I'm really wanting a bowl of ice cream or chips & salsa, I just wait until the day(s) I'm not fasting, then eat a reasonable portion size. In the 5:2 plan they recommend that on non-fast days…

Me neither - and I'm not sure how I feel about it.

15 minutes to go :) 10 points for Team Carol!!

OMG - Maggie's double ladder character challenge is a b*tch! But it's done!

I was out of my chair pacing when Glenn was cornered. Personally I think the whole scene when Jessie's family died was a bit lame - did absolutely no one see an approaching walker for either her or Sam? At least try to fend some off? Not terribly sad to see them go, 'cept what it'll do to Rick emotionally. Aside from the…

Challenge 1 - logging exercise. My company offers a $1 credit for each half hour of exercise per month (up to $30). I've got multiple reasons to get off my butt and get to sweating!

Hey folks, Patti here - 3rd 1/2 season as Maggie (RIP Beth). I see some newbies here, welcome! Shout out to all the long timers too :) Totally torn about the premier tomorrow, 'course it's Valentines day and the hubby wants to take me out for dinner, my sister that I haven't seen in nearly 2 years is in town, and what is…

Following :) I have a VXS Sports Bra that is far better than any others I have, but when it comes to running these DDs sure put up a fight to be contained!

Love me some FitnessBlender!!

I was beside myself! Hooray Glenn!!

Well, second week in a row I failed to check in on time! I did survive the attack and met my goals. Team Glenn & Maggie
