General chat during the Pandemic.
Good morning my friends. Checking the March WL Challenge, I saw two others who seem to be having the same problem I am: trying to hold it together during this stressful time without eating ourselves into regaining. I know I want to be able to have somewhere to talk and vent and get ideas, and frankly just to feel less…

Daily Challenge - 1/17/2014 - Sodium Free Friday
OK, we all know that Sodium Free is neither do able (nor even advisable!) However, we generally eat too much of that sneaky little ingredient! Again, look at your macros and start building a menu tomorrow that will keep this GREEN. If you really want to push yourself, try to use no more than 75% what MFP puts there for…

New Year, Fresh Start (for fruits and vegetables)

Olympics in 100 days, up for an exercise challenge?
While on the treadmill tonight the newscaster announced it is only 100 days until the start of the 2014 Olympic games. While I maybe used to eat like an Olympian, I've never amounted to much of an athlete (12 oz curls aside.) I thought back to Mark's challenge a while back, a week with adding a simple 10% to whatever you…

Differing Perceptions, or KUDOS at the right time
In the Milestones thread Russ (canuname) and I got into a bit of a mutual admiration match.

While being…

Dropping calories (gasp!)
I just jumped into settings and resubmitted so MFP would recalculate my calories. Another drop of 50 calories. It isn't a panic by any means, but it does help show why my losses have been slowing (besides not going to the gym for three weeks!) I know MFP will prompt you on occasion to recalculate, but the last time I…

What are your short term goals?
Morning all. Why I am attempting to post pre-coffee is beyond me, but I was just reading something Cary posted and it struck a bell. We have the monthly WL&M threads going and that is great. But she mentioned she has a different goal in mind. I'm sure we all do as well. Here are some of mine to break up this huge chunk of…

Roll Call - Sunday 8/25/13
Morning all. It seems like posting has slowed a bit. I know how important it is for me to have these boards active, I hope you feel the same.

What do you do for fun and exercise in the ABQ area?
Hi everyone. As my activity level is growing, I'm looking for some new ideas on things to do in the local area. Right now my wife and I walk the bio park areas (or will when the temps drop a bit again,) work out at a local gym, take some of the trails at Petroglyph. The bosque will be added sometime as well. Are there any…
