  • I'll have to look into that. I should probably just ask somebody where they are first. Maybe they have a Narnia-esque closet where they keep them. :wink: Thanks! :flowerforyou:

  • Hi Everybody!!! We just scheduled our engagement photo shoot for 10/10. Me and the fiance are going to be working extra hard this month. To reflect this.. I've set a rather lofty goal of 10 lbs. Considering I've not lost more than 6 in a single month yet, this is quite a stretch... but hey. Go big or go home! Name: Vanessa…

  • I found my first one at 16. I'm now 27 and I would guess I'm about a quarter grey. I dye my hair. But 6 hairs? Psh. It'll be a while before you need to worry about doing anything about it.
  • AWESOME job BLUE! First place again!!!! I'm so proud of all of us!

  • Happy weigh in day all! Just remember, every time you make a choice that is consistent with your goals, you are making progress. Every time you make a choice that is not consistent with your goals, make sure it's worth it! And if it is, then don't regret it! If it's not... learn from it and move on. I have a feeling I…

  • 1. Would you be interested in doing a second challenge when this one ends? Yes! 2. Would you be interested in being a "Challenge Mod?" Someone who comes up with challenges for the group, creates challenge threads, and helps people stay motivated. Not personally. I'm not good at that sort of thing, but I do think it's a…
  • My fiance weighs a good 90 lbs less than I do and I tell him my weight on a weekly basis. I also have a chart of my weekly weigh ins on the wall in our bedroom... he, frankly, couldn't care less what that number is. It doesn't change how I look to him just because he knows the number. In fact... I'd be willing to bet, if…
  • Great job Blue team and great job Trudy! It's so exciting to see us kicking butt!!!

  • Happy weigh in day, all! I'm pretty happy with my weigh in. 1.6 .. I think. I've only been to the gym once this week though. I'm super slacking. But I did go on a walk one day and last night I tried Stronglifts 5x5 on my fiances mini gym equipment. (it's like a 12 lbs bar, some plates and a tiny bench. it'll work til I can…

  • Awesome job making the decision! Most of the time that's the hardest part. I quick 10/31/13 so coming up on a year soon here. and I'll just tell you real quick what worked for me this time (Because it was probably the 10th time i'd tried to quit). First of all, the reasons for my renewed desire to quit smoking were as…
  • YAY!!! Thanks britishbroccoli!! :) Blue team rocks!! Great job this week everyone!!!!!

  • I weigh daily as well. For multiple reasons: 1.) It keeps me motivated day in and out. Keeps me focused on the task at hand. (Even though, yes, I know that the scale is not the only indicator or success, but it is the most easily measured...) 2.) I find the fluctuations interesting. As someone who has water retention…

  • Hi All! I hope everyone is feeling good this week so far. I've been checking for the results from last week each day as well and am kinda bummed. I feel like we did a REALLY awesome job last week (even though we lost someone). Hope we see them soon!

  • Hmm... I've never heard of that sort of issue before. If I were you, I'd probably at least put a call in to my doctor or maybe even make an appointment. I don't think hiking should cause you to bleed. Could there be something else that's causing it? (New birth control.. etc?)
  • Thanks for the responses. I think maybe I'll try the bar and see what happens. I'm relatively certain I'm strong enough to lift the bar 5 times. If not, I'll go with body weight for bit. I just have to suck it up and march into the weights section with all the buff dudes and do my business. Mind over matter. :bigsmile:
