Uh Oh! I got a Boo Boo Challenge!
Alright Challengers, I'm going to pose a challenge that we all need to think about: What to do when we hurt a body part and need to exercise around it to strengthen it!

03/17 Challenge- Eat some extra GREEN (s)!
I was just reading about green not being associated with St Patrick's Day in Ireland. This was because of the Great Potato Famine, during this time, the Irish that didn't leave Ireland for America, in some cases resorted to eating grass to stay alive, some would die with their mouths green from eating the grass.

Restarting and need some help
Started MFP in Feb, MFP said that I needed to eat 1470 cals/day, so I've been doing that from Feb until May (stopped tracking in May because of work hours-and other things- throwing off my schedule, I wasn't eating bad, just inconsistently enough that it really wasn't good for me,) but I never lost any weight while I was…
