I eat mine for breakfast like oatmeal. I make an apple, cinnamon, raisin version. Quinoa also has more benefits than cous cous because it is a complete protein. So it's good for vegetarians and vegans as another way to get protein. I still oatmeal and steel cut oats from time to time, but I love quinoa for breakfast.

Sometimes, the weight is nothing more than a physical sign of the shackles in our minds. I've finally let something things go and as they went away, the weight has begun to go also. It's almost been...dare I say...effortless? It's amazing what peace of mind can do to alter they way you look at yourself and the world.…

Vampire in Brooklyn. Eddie Murphy + vampire = nightmares. People laugh at me when they find out about it (thanks, mama), but that movie really did get me. I was a kid when I saw it and I thought Eddie Murphy was coming for me!

I completed my first 5K this month on the 13th. The Color Run. I didn't get to run too much since I told a friend I would walk with her since she hurt her Achilles tendon. But I've got another 5K and a breast cancer walk coming up and I plan to do more running. I'm also using my C25K app in the gym and I haven't had to…

I'm running my first 5K this weekend. The Color Run is in Nashville this Sunday and I can't wait! Too excited! :drinker:

Bump!

Go the class. You never know, you may meet someone there who's just like you and needs a buddy. You could have a new fitness friend and you guys could motivate each other.

Some of those girls got "thick" from a surgeon's knife. Nicki Minaj anyone? Tell him to keep calm and then show him a pic of your favorite male celeb and tell him you want him to get ripped like he is.

Awesome. Losing weight the healthy way with 4 kids! You're my she-ro, lol.

I'm in for 7x per week. Ruby baby!

I'm in!

Someone once said something about "the eye of the beholder", I think... yeah, I'll go with that.

Feel free to add!

I was gonna get it on eBay, but I got out bid. Would love to know if any females did it as well.

My ringtone is Don't Be Afraid To Touch by Amerie. My notification tone is the Old Spice whistle. It used to be Nobody's Perfect by J. Cole.

Thanks so much for your encouragement. I'll keep your suggestions in mind. :happy:

I'm 5'3 and my goal is 160. I prefer to stay curvy.

Bump!

Love this song, but it must be the one sang by Tremaine Hawkins.

Currently, I'm doing P90X and today is a rest day from the program. My friend and I will be going to the park to start my c25k trainer app. Also a squat challenge, 50 squats today. Good luck on your commitments everyone!

I know! It was getting rough there for a minute but I pulled it back in. Nice to have stuck to one of these challenges all the way through.

Going strong. I feel my resolve waning a bit, but I'm glad our fearless leader who started this group helped me off the ledge of jumping mouth first into a cookie yesterday.

Homemade kale chips! A little cooking spray (saves calories on oil), kale, and sea salt. Set the oven to 350, bake to desired crispness. Satisfies my chip craving everytime!

You can add me. I get so embarrassed everytime I've had to reset my ticker down to 0. But I do it because I want everyone to see what I'm doing. Since I confessed that I do this, my MFP friends see this and take notice. I've started P90X again and I don't want to fail my MFP friends by resetting my weight loss to 0 again.…
