chellez-you have done alot for us and I know I'm not the only one who feels this way but I am so greatful for you even having started the challenge and continuing with it. I think doing it while it's on air will help alot too because we will all feel motivated. Do what you have to do. You need to take care of yourself too.
Chellez - I completely understand. I couldn't manage a challenge like this and have an outside life. Thanks for what you've done. It's been great for me and while I'll miss it, I do understand!

I couldn't have said it any better. I don't know how you keep up with the challenges and have a life. I will miss the challenge too, but I understand completely. So when does the next show start?
Chellez--What you are capable of is amazing. I also think only doing it when the show is on does make it more motivating. September is not that far away.
It will definitely still be easy to do chats bw challenges to keep up with each other.
1 T oil
1-2 T chili powder
3 T flour
2 C h2O
1 t vinegar
1/2 t garlic
1/2 t salt
pepper to taste
(I also add cumin)
I put it all in a sauce pan and whisk together. Cook til thick.
In a casserole dish, I put down a layer of tortillas. Then I put down the beans, then cheese. Then I add a layer of tortillas and pour the sauce over. Serve like lasagna.
Hope everyone has a happy 4th - in my area we have a BoomBox Parade - people come with their radios tuned to the local radio station to watch anyone who wants to march down Main Street - many make floats of their own.
I probably will not be on that much in the coming week. I'll be in Oregon with limited access to internet. I plan to do lots of physical activities - like walking and some body weight exercises like my push ups!! And I am planning to be in the 230's when I get home! That's my goal. I must maintain for sure. No gains allowed. I used a holiday freebie this week since I usually weigh in on Sundays and will not have a scale. Have a lovely holiday weekend everyone.
Josephine--you are a rock star. I am working on being happy for you without being jealous of you.
Hahahah, I agree.
Chellez- Thanks for telling us what's going on, I honestly didn't know what was going on with you, so just wanted to check on you. I know we've lost a lot of peps in this challenge (this is only my 2nd one), but we did in the last one as well. I, personally, don't think that the show being on (or it being summer) has effected my motivation. We talked mostly on a different thread about the show, this thread was more support and personal related. That's just my experience. But anyway, I know you do bust *** crunching numbers for us and managing the whole challenge in itself, along with our team's info as well, plus your personal, work life, and school and other projects, it's a lot. Also, this is an longer challenge than some in the past (I think) so that might be why too. I know you worked hard to get this challenge where it is and we all appreciate it. If it wasn't for you I wouldn't have met all these awesome bluesers and have such a great team.
Oh yea, and bluesers, we better clean the floor with the other teams this week!
