Funny... I was just this week admiring how I've lost the fat on the sides of my upper hips, only to hear that this is now apparently an undesirable feature. *eyeroll*

I really like my husbands Huawei, and was excited to get one when my phone needed to be replaced. It got sent right back when I found that it was incompatible with my fitbit. I didn't even get a chance to play with their fitness app. Maybe google compatibility. I hope you are able to make it work!

Hi cool kids! I've been back in the saddle again for three months and have taken off 14lbs. No Speedy Gonzalez this time! I'm taking my time, avoiding injury, and enjoying myself.

I haven't been posting my mileage here, but I have been tracking. My goal was 50mi this month, and I hit a whopping 78miles!!

First day- here we go! 3.5 miles!

Still trying to figure out how to put the exercise ticker in. I made one... now what? /slow kid

OK, I'm in! I'm thinking I'll shoot for 50 miles for my first month!

Just ran a quick google search for cucumber soup. Here is a vegan option that sounds delicious! http://vegetarian.about.com/od/soupsstewsandchili/r/cucumbersoup.htm
