Thanks for the laugh! I needed that today. I bought the shred video years ago and never got past level one. I'm not even sure I was able to finish level one. Maybe I'll use that for me next challenge.

http://www.doyogawithme.com/ I love this website and I should start incorporating yoga into my workouts. When most people are stressed they get tight shoulders. I'm strange and get really tight hamstrings. I bet yoga would help with that a lot. I think I'm going to try the "Love Yourself" this weekend.

Nice job finding a way to add some exercise to your rest day!

I'm so impressed that you're finding so many different ways to sneak kale into every meal!

Since I'm a student and in the hospital all day I really don't have a space where I can keep a water bottle. My only option right now is before I start in the morning, at lunch if I get one, and when I get home at night.

Have you seen "Fresh" or "Food Inc" I heard about Fed Up, but haven't seen it yet.

Soda is my biggest challenge. I didn't even bother to list it as a quest at this point because it would just end in failure. Maybe when I'm healthier in other areas it'll be easier to cut out.
