Soooooo refreshing and absolutely true. Great job!

A simpler less expensive idea would be to produce iron on decals, then you could add to whatever.....

I can't honestly fathom. We get most of our non grocery products free or darn close with couponing and between sales, stocking & couponing we save 40% on average off our weekly bill and STILL spend $130-$160ish a week. .

I'm so curious, exactly what do you buy? $15 would by me bananas, my milk, strawberries & feta cheese for example. Hardly enough for a week!

Between $130-$160 (with coupons) for 2 adults and a teenage boy. Food is expensive in my area (NY) and we buy organic, almond milk, speciality coffees & a lot of higher ticket items so it adds up.

When it comes to your healthy and losing weight you actually do have to put yourself first in some ways. Being a parent is not always fun or a joy. Anyone who says different is full of bologna in my eyes. You won't be pushing fun time aside forever, just until you get this weight in check and that is and should be a…

I was seriously worried about getting over the wall. Most of the smaller women have several men on their teams to boost and pull them over- so I was like-I'm out :( Actually maybe that was Tough Mudder....

Sweet potatoes are really filling, protein shake is a good idea and eggs. I would say no meat because I wouldn't want anything hanging around in your stomach still. They say that because you can aspirate Into lung and choke on your own food while under anesthesia, huge cause of anesthesia related fatalities.

I also work with kids. I feel like it is normal activity, not like it's much more than walking and playing. I definitely sit down too. So I only count if we go for a walk or if I sneak a playground workout in (HRM on me!). I also set my goals manually and subtracted 25% off my TDEE between light/sedentary. I then eat back…

I have wanted to go all dark pink forever but am worried it will ruin my blonde hair :( does it fade out or grow out? Any natural blondes with experience?

Surely it's been said, but I wear whatever I need to to be able to stand to look at myself in the mirror and I don't give a rats azz if you think my eyeliner is out of place or my hot pink sneaks are loud. Blah, blah, blah. I'm there for me, the end.

Nope! Welcome :)

No Alcohol August starts today!

I think it would be good to check in to put on blast what we avoided when it comes up. Like, "Only sober at karaoke. I sang anyways cause they were all too drunk to notice I suck." WIN :)

One day left, anyone else want in?

I drive a hooked up 2012 Subaru Impreza. It's sweet :) Blinged up and we ordered every possible add on/option +

I'm super confused by those posting to say they can't/won't/don't need to join this challenge. All you special snowflakes and procrastinators GTFO! ;)

No more than once a day is my motto due to sodium and the whole processed food thing. Love the Fajita Chicken Rolls :)

Mila Kunis (sp?)

Exactly, trying to retain muscle here and strengthen while I lose. I would love to build muscle as well but in case ya didn't know, that's nearly impossible for a woman eating at a calorie deficit. It takes an excess if cals to do that and an incredible amount of lifting!

I just researched the shiz outta this and set mine manually to 40/30/30. Did my diary for tomorrow and about 17 over on protein which is fine as I will be lifting so it's all good. I understand it's ok to float over fats as well if the overage is good fats from fish, nuts, olive oil....

Some kids at a certain age will not hold your hand, throw themselves about and refuse to be restrained in a seat or stroller. It happens. They may be perfectly happy to have 2 feet of "room" to dance around ahead or beside you. As an early childhood specialist with a background in psychology, teaching Pre school and as a…

Woot woot!

Guess I better get started! :)

THURSDAY 7/26 MINI CHALLENGE is now LIVE! I get it started early because I sleep in on Thursdays and don't want to leave you hanging! Go here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/682215-thursday-7-26-mini-challenge

Are you eating back those cals? If logging any activity keeps you motivated then have at it! The problem arrises when you eat those cals back. I think a good rule of thumb is to eat back purposeful exercise cals. (running, lifting, sports, walking, hiking....)

HIGHFIVES to everyone who joined, tried or succeeded so far! I've done 160 so far, will get 10-20 more in before bed (bathroom breaks are the perfect time to fit a set in!) Look for tomorrow's challenge to go live on the Fitness and Exercise board by 9am tomorrow! Overhead extensions part 3!
