Winter Slump :(
Hello MFP land!! So who's with me?!?! I'd get home from work, all spring and summer long, make dinner and then go out for a nice long walk. Sure it was getting dark, but If I was done by 9:30 I wasn't out too long in the dark. These days I get home from work at 6, and it's pitch black already...so okay, I can't walk in the…

Natural Eaters of the World UNITE!

Not Logging all your exercise?!?!
Hey everyone. As spring has sprung (finally) in CNY I have tried (more and more) to walk (or ride my bike)places around my fair city rather than drive.

Last spot in the lot!
Okay...I am issuing myself a personal challenge. Baby steps right?!!?!?! From today on I will park in the farthest spot in the lot wherever I go. No more competing for close spots....no more 'lazy' parking. I am sure alot of you out there already do this...but adding those extra steps in each and every day has got to add…
