I can get immobilized, too. It's a vicious cycle. You want to do something, and you don't. And then, you feel worse. Repeat. So, I can offer you my experiences that have helped me. First of all, I needed to accept myself where I am today and stop comparing myself to the woman of yesteryear (e.g., I used to run a 5:30 mile.…

Love this site: http://savvyvegetarian.com/ Do you use quinoa? Great source of protein... (that's not eggs! :) ) Oh, and if you can eat soy, try tofu and/or tempeh Tofu recipes : (pressing the tofu makes alllll the difference) http://www.savvyvegetarian.com/vegetarian-recipes/lemon-pepper-baked-tofu.php…

tortilla, refried vegetarian beans from a can, little bit of cheese -- heat in microwave. Eat with some veggie... I love to plop it on a bed of lettuce. Salsa too if it's around... Quick quick quick

Glad you're happy and feeling better! Onward! :)

Reaching deep into my vast working German vocabulary: Das ist wunderbar! :) Congratulations on your dedication! An amazing accomplishment.

I'm so happy for you! The hardships you've overcome can definitely help people who are there. Don't be afraid to be honest...continue to share your story. Honesty, sincerity, and practical experience are powerful motivators.

Congrats! You're looking great!

I definitely want to be included in this again! Sign me up! Any suggestions as to what needs to be included in a challenge for the week? (if I were to make one) ... Or should I go back and study the grand master's examples? (Hawkins) :)

I agree with everyone that the Amazing Race challenges were the best, best, best! Unbelievably memorable---They kept me motivated and I learned so much! I have no idea HOW I could help, but I can make the coffee! :) lol

I was so happy to see the update to your story!! Keep facing down your fears and get back to the gym! Don't wait to get back home; go to another gym away from home---it will further empower you... :)

If you can learn to run without music, it's ultimately better. You're more aware of your body and you don't become dependent on a beat to motivate you to move. However, if you must have music, wear only one! It really is dangerous to not be aware of your surroundings. Although it was a freak attack, the recent New York…

Fabulous!!! Losing weight while on the road?? Most would say impossible, but you've proved that sentiment wrong! In answer to your question about posting pics: https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10113298/how-do-you-post-pics-in-the-forums

Yeah, it's great! lol

You had to retrieve your rice while cars were waiting?? No one helped you??? It's only embarrassing to those that didn't bound over to lend you hand... I'm glad you're okay. I've been trying to log consistently and was doing pretty well until tonight when company came over with snacks, goodies, and more goodies. We played…

Hi Guys! I miss this Challenge! But, I'm really glad for the break. I only have 1 challenge now and it feels downright easy in comparison to what I felt I needed to do for AR! We finally hit the deep freeze this week like the rest of the country. 30 below zero with wind chill... a tad nippy (this was only at night though)!…

Where are we supposed to "meet"? Will the results just be posted on each Team's board?

This team was the BEST!! Thank you all for working so hard, even when you haven't been feeling well (especially this week)! Wow, did you guys push me! And so did Team 1!! Loved, loved, loved this challenge! (((Hugs to you all))) :) Amazing!!! We ended this with a TIE!! WOW!! Team huddle.... team huddle..... Let's do a…

Hey, tall friends! I'm 5'11'' and finding a car with enough leg room is always a challenge. The clothing industry is doing better by us, though, don't you think? I can find pants long enough and shirts with sleeves that actually cover my wrists. Growing up, I regularly had high-water pants (sigh) and usually rolled up my…

Sorry for posting everything so late. I was really sick this week. :( Realized at 11Pm tonight that I needed to account for steps so I got on the stairstepper and did 47 minutes for over 5000 steps... I'm dripping sweat as I write this (TMI!). Great work this week, Team! :)
