YES! We got this Jen. Doing it tonight, but will have to modify jumping jacks with jump rope. The lateral movement is tough on my knee.

Cool share John! Sorry to hear some of you have been fighting a bug. The boyfriend and I had a cold, but thank goodness it passed quickly. Allergy season should be here soon. Kim, Congrats on the convention and SHORT sleeves!!! As for the time change, it usually takes me about a week to adjust, but this year I have been…

I am not tough enough to do this right now. I am not worthy...I am not worthy... Hats off to all of you. Ummm, Kelly, I took my measurements last night, hence why I am back to posting. My poor boyfriend got to see my old eating disordered brain come to light. It was ugly. However, I feel the tape measure is better than the…

Looks like everyone is going strong. I have actually stuck with this, even if I haven't been posting lately. Here's my list so far. Trying to only list one a day even if I have more. The only new thing has been that romanesca broccoli. Top one is the last one I had. Tried numbering the list, but my inability to line things…

You are not alone Carol. I am WAY behind. Thanks John! Those cards finally came today. I told Jen that I blame Amazon for my weight gain and lack of fitness. :)
-
I tried Kim's earlier share of romanesca (sp???) broccoli. Such a cool looking veggie and it was good. Ate it steamed, nothing else with it. Boring gal here:)
-
Kelly, I have a bunch of recipes pinned for using cauliflower. I want to try mashed. Thanks for the share.

Kelly and Mark, You two made me smile with your posts. What a wonderful pair you make. WOOHOO out to you Kelly on the changes and loss. I am still struggling with the Diet Cike and have mega food allergies. Thanks for the inspiration:) WTG John. Kicking butt as usual:) Your hands seem strong to me;) Kevin, I was just…

Sorry Jen, I am going with Kim's approach. Figure it will give me some room since I will probably hit a good 10 veggies in the first few days:) Saw that post about the butter and giggled. Cheese sounds good too!

Seems I forgot to check in on this thread yesterday. Here’s to a new week! Kim, Congrats on that killer StrongLifts session. I would love to add a squat rack to our home gym. Thinking about it, but I have to make myself be consistent with my lifting. Although they really aren’t THAT expensive. Glad you enjoyed your yummy…

I like your thinking Jen and great job to all! I am going to try and find things that I have not eaten before.
-
Jen, You are going to have fun!!!
-
Welcome Kelly! I'm jealous that you get to live in Montana:)
-
John, You are awesome! Thanks for all the work you do for us. Much appreciated. Love that the first one was named after your love:) As always, she is a part of our little group. I saw this earlier and gave it a go. Haven't done one of these kind of workouts in awhile and it was fun. My push ups are back to being sad, but I…

Kim, Bless you for posting the Google doc. I couldn't download the doc. Bonkers Kristin will do what you are going to do and post weekly on there. Everything else is here. Sauteed a pile of spinach with onions this morning and had a veggie scramble. Yum! I had sent a message to Jen on the the VO site, but will also ask…

GOOD morning and happy Saturday all. Learned a lesson from my less than great eating last night. Canned soup equals a pile of sodium equals my eyes being swollen shut when I wake up. It is crazy. I hadn't had canned soup in ages. Still was nice and tasty. Unfortunately I was so tired last night that I only made it through…
-
John, I am ordering tomorrow morning. Thanks again! Kim, I immediately started laughing when I say the pic of my profile on your post. That is the same stuff that was coming up for me. LOL! I felt like a crazy woman trying to do it. As for StrongLifts, you are not alone. I have been feeling guilty for not doing it with ya.…

Happy Friday all! Treadmill done last night and two loads of laundry done this morning. Let the weekend get here already. B)
-
Kevin, Thanks for trying. I tried to search for you and see a Kevin. Is that you? This is kind of funny. I found Kim, but then couldn't add her as a friend. Maybe there is something in my settings. I looked around and seems I have everything checked. I will play around in there and figure it out. I can't believe I…
-
Kevin, Hey there! I am sorry to hear you have going through a rough time. It seems to be in the air. Glad that you weren't like me and escaped for far too long. Here's to being re-focused and sending good vibes your way:) Carol!!! Have a wonderful time, even if you will not see this until you get back and by then it will…
-
John, Seems we must have posted around the same time yesterday and I missed yours. Thanks for sharing and a big thank you to all our soldiers! We just watched a documentary on Netflix called "Free the Mind." It followed two soldiers suffering from PTSD and a little boy as they attempted meditation to help heal. Was kind of…

Jen, Pringles are the spawn of the devil. I am not sure there has ever been a time I did not eat the entire can in a sitting. That long tube just pulls you in! Are you getting salt in? I crave those things when I am not eating enough salt. Hang in there babe. It is one day and today is a new day. I am with you on the need…
-
Kim, Thanks for all of the awesome info. The after effects sound a little like those niacin flushes that were popular years ago. You got me to pull out some of my supplements and forgot that leucine was in the BCAAs I took when I was heavy into strength training. I cut the dose in half. I think it was 4 grams, twice a day.…

Who knew I would lead such and exciting life...doing laundry every weekend?! I just so happen to be "fluffing" a load right now. I was too lazy to take it out last night. GOOD Morning. Got an incline walk in and some squats. My dislike for Monday's told me I better do something in the morning since I will be useless later…
-
Heron, Bravo is a beautiful boy! It is wonderful what you do for those furbabies. Bless you guys:) As for the cone, I remember bringing our boy home after getting neutered. He came in and fell to the floor, unwilling to move with that darn cone on his head. Didn't help that the cat spent awhile growling at him. Oh the…

Another "Chris" joins the gang. We are taking over:) Welcome and a big congrats on the loss!

I signed up for a July mud run in MI. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xACm-AZqloA&feature=share I am on the fence about whether I should have since I want to have my surgery done in the spring and I am not sure if I will be properly healed by July. Another race I want to do is the Detroit Free Press half marathon. This…

Haha on the heels comment. I don't wear them too much anymore, but they sure make calves look great! It's funny because I pin all of these dream heels that I will never wear. I am also a lover of high heeled boots. Ahhhh! :wink: You did a fantastic job with the podcast. It was strange for me being in the chatroom. You have…

Yum! Sounds delicious Kim. I never had romanesco and had to look it up. Neat looking veggie. The boyfriend and I went through a phase when we started eating clean. We would try something new every time we shopped. I thought we made it through all the fruits and veggies. We need to check out the specialty store and see if…

I just so happened to have eaten brussel sprouts last night. We tried something different recently and have to share. We added some blue cheese to roasting asparagus and OH MY GOODNESS, was it ever the best! We didn't use much, but could have used less since it kicks out it's own oil and we had already drizzled olive oil…
