postscript: I am wearing a PINK TANK TOP (not the brown Powells T - I would prefer a tank top today and since it doesn't sound like anyone is coming, I will wear what I want! HA!) and black stretchy shorts things. :)

It's not raining! I am headed down.

OK friends - there is a 30% chance of rain beginning at 6a and increasing in chance of precipitation as the day wears on (but at no point does it indicate that there might be no rain). Here is the deal. If it is raining, I won't go. But if it is not raining, I will be there. So look out your windows and see if it is…

It is looking like the rain has switched from Saturday to Sunday at this point. Keep an eye out - I will go Saturday morning if Sunday looks like it is going to be rainy!

Great! I would love to meet you both!

Deet. And lots of it. This is my favorite description: "DEET has, in recent times, gotten a bad rap because exposure to DEET in extremely high concentrations or long-term exposure (we're talking about people exposed to high levels of DEET solution on a daily basis for years) can increase the likelihood of seizures and…

I went for the first time a few months ago - I encourage you to call ahead and ask what you need to bring (at Vertical Endurance you can rent everything - a good idea for beginners like me!). They provide a short training which is sufficient. If you can rent the gear, bring comfy clothes and the ability to laugh at…

tis gone!! :happy:

No one here can answer that question for you. :heart:

I try and visualize what .4 looks like when I loose .4....for example - that is almost two sticks of butter. Then I try and imagine that those two sticks of butter are no longer on my thighs. :) I also started weighing myself every day. I know many people will say NOOOO DON'T DO THAT! And certainly it is not for everyone.…

I am coming a little late here, but I lost 54 pounds in the last year (2/25/13-2/25/14). (big 'ol grin)

I agree. Clavicles are definitely sidetracking.

You positively glow!!!

Fitness. Fashion is a happy byproduct for me.

Although we still have a bit of time, all those who have been active for the last few weeks have posted. I will check out tomorrow and see if anyone has posted (and will update if so), but I figured while I was logged in to MFP, Photobucket, and on my physical computer (rather than my iPad), and have browsers and excel…

So sorry for the delay everyone! I have been under the weather for the better part of two weeks and have found it difficult to focus on MFP (plus I kind of forgot to make the charts once I had let it slide a few days) This chart is not quite right (i.e., I have entered the week 10 submissions of folks who have already…

The results are in! I decided that The Luv cannot win because she is not on MFP and is logging in through telling me her scores rather than entering them in this forum. But I also decided that she should get an honorable mention when she is the highest earner of points since she created the dagum excel file and all of the…
