thanks Jlou - that's one thing I'm happy about, my little red berry - working on a few mates for him now...
hope your asthma is better soon - nasty thing it is.

I think I'll claim my second berry, water has been good and I exercised last week, don't know about next week though, not able to walk much or bike ride etc. Does stretches to help my back count? What about time on the TENS?
Have a great DOcember.

How is everyone going?
I have earned some berries because:
I have been taking my asthma Meds therefore DOing something about my health
I have been only having starchy carbs when eating out
I have been DOing reset after ingesting starchy carbs.

I have started thinking of my CAN uary goals too!

Hi GLT - I'd love to! but it's for maintainers really (I don't really class myself as a maintainer cos I'm on program)
Looking forward to those recipe's!!
thanks for bumping this thread - I love my little strawberry (even if it is a bad fruit) (almost as much as my beautiful mango!)

Jlou's first post spells it out - and you must've been in one of the maintaining months challenges, 'cos you already have a strawberry.

It's up to you!

Every week you stick to your DO-cember vow you get a to add to your signature indicating the number of weeks you have been Berrylicious

So, who is up for a challenge - starts Wednesday!
Oooh so this is how we claim a berry! It's a weekly thing! Yay!

Will skip the berry this week as I haven't accomplished all my goals.
- Have written out 5 recipes, plus 2 that I posted in the Recipes for maintenance thread...
- Worked out 6 days last week
- Stayed below 55 kg...

Still working on the Turkish Get Up! Drat! Can't even do one proper set.
