I'm a week into no-drinking November. In 2014, I only had a total of three weeks when I didn't have one parent in the hospital, including ICU. My dad eventually died in the summer of 2015. The daily bottle of wine habit I had developed, however, kept going strong into July 2017. After months of tracking how many days a…

I started C25k today! I did it a year ago and loved it, then got busy and stopped running. :( I walked and stretched a lot last week, then built up my knee joints with osteo bi-flex for a few days. (I'm afraid of injuring my knees again). Today went great! I love the runner's high!

For dinner, we will either have brown rice, rice/quinoa pasta, or quinoa and vegetables (usually frozen). We also eat beans instead of meat with…

Thanks for these reminders! I've started walking with a few minutes of jogging this week. I'm going to do C25k next week. When I first started a year and a half ago, I tore my knees up because 1) I didn't have a good enough walking base, 2) I wasn't stretching enough, 3) I I tried to much too soon, 4) I tried to run…

I'm restarting the virgin diet for april. I found that when I follow it, I feel really good. I've pretty much eliminated dairy already. 1. Gluten (the only problem here is that I bake bread from scratch for my family. SO tempting when it's warm out of the oven! I'm not going to give up the piece of challah on Friday…

"In The End of Overeating, Dr. Kessler explains how humans, much like Pavlov's dogs, become hardwired to anticipate foods with fat, sugar, and salt. The food industry has learned what humans want, and is only too happy to give us what we crave. We quickly become trapped in a vicious cycle of dopamine-fueled urges when we…

Do we have to order a challenge pack? I already have a gym membership and hate "workouts," but I plan on starting couch to 5k again. I also have powder for my own protein shakes, so that isn't necessary either.
