  • Great goals, Octobergirl! It's hard not to eat out, as I told musicfan4life in this thread. My favorite meal out is breakfast. I have no willpower when it comes to Dunkin Donuts coffee (occasionally a donut), and a McDonald's Egg White Delite sandwich! Naw... I'm not thinking about food as I'm sitting here all snowed in…
  • Nice goals, musicfan4life! I should really add the not eating out one on my goals, too; but I'm on the road so much with my job that I'd have to pack a cooler, and that is too much effort! I am aiming at 5 lbs in 5 weeks, also. Good luck...and welcome!
  • Sounds good, traynorj82! I'm hoping the motivation kicks in, as well! Now get your butt off this computer and go do some jumping jacks!!! lol!
  • It's all good, Beth! We're easy here. Just giving a little motivation; no butt kicking... yet! lol :)
  • Lots of workouts in their, mudflatmabel! Looks really good! Can you donate some of that workout time to my body? lol! Go get 'em, girlfriend!
  • Hefty goals, futurefitgirl! But I know you can do it! Go get 'em! :)
  • I am starting a winter challenge for these last five weeks of winter. If you want to know more about it, go to the No More Couch Potatoes Support Group (not the summer camp), and check out the challenge description! :)
  • My winter goal is to get back on track with regular exercise and healthier food choices. I am also aiming at losing five pounds in five weeks. My first week goals are to: 1) reweigh myself tomorrow morning to establish a correct starting point 2) reinstate Morning Movements as a start to my day 3) stay under daily calorie…
  • Thanks, friends! I WILL FINISH THE RESULTS AND COOKBOOK... I WILL FINISH THE RESULTS AND COOKBOOK... I WILL... (you get the idea! lol). Thanks again for participating with me! :)
  • I was looking over the numbers for the last two weeks and noticed that I wasn't the only one who had issues with motivation. I think this was a cool challenge and enjoyed it a lot. Calculating the results got a little overwhelming for me (I'm two weeks behind so that's a bit obvious), but that was due to vacation and then…

  • I wish I had noticed this sooner, although my trip through the Chicago area was pretty short and already crowded with activity. I LOVE geocaching! My daughter introduced it to me last year. She also bought me a starter kit for Christmas. :)
  • My review is more of a fitness website review: http://www.shapesense.com/fitness-exercise/calculators/heart-rate-based-calorie-burn-calculator.aspx I used the shapesense website to calculate my calories burned incorporating my average heart rate. The site explained calories and oxygen volume and offered multiple…
  • I love the Shades of Grey series...so much so that I read book 2, as well. I haven't gotten around to book 3 because the library has been out. It's definitely addictive. I can't wait for the movie to come out. I'm dying to see how much they really can include. On another note, I began reading The Heist by Janet Evanovich…

  • Sounds like you have a fun day planned...ENJOY! I know what you mean by the polish... I'm always a pearly white. Every time I think of changing I talk myself out of it. lol I say alternate paint on the nails and then see how it looks with the brace and suit! lol

  • Last Sunday was Cabin Cleaning Day at my daughter's home in Seattle as I helped her prepare for her housewarming party; I also made a lot of new friends and met an MFP friend in person! Sports Day was today; I went to play tennis with my friend Tammy. (She whooped my butt and pretty much wiped the court with it! lol) NSV…
  • Family Day was Sunday when my hubby and I got together with his sisters, etc. playing cards at his mom and dad's house. Water Day was either Monday when I went for a walk with my niece and we went through all the lawn sprinklers in the neighborhood, or yesterday when I went swimming at the hotel. Pamper Yourself Day was…

  • Okay... my first app isn't really an exercise app, but it is ABSOLUTELY necessary for me when I exercise. I love my Pandora radio app. I usually listen to the Classic Rock Workout mix, but have tried many of the other stations as well. Obviously my MFP app on my phone is one I used all the time. I like some of the…
  • My NSV day was today when I realized that the goal I set for myself to take my vitamins every day was achieved each day this week. I'll post my app review next. Pamper Day is tomorrow...definitely have to go for that mani/pedi that I didn't get to go for a few weeks ago. If it's not raining in the morning, I'll try to fit…
