QOTD: Do you use unscented laundry detergent?

I've been using The Honest Co.s for several months now and I think it's making my towels 'stiff'.....so I used some Gain I still have this weekend on them and they feel so much better!

What do y'all use?

[4furrypaws]

The Good: 3 days 10k+ steps, 4 gym days and some better eating

The Bad: MIL's lasagna and pizza rolls

The Proud: Eh. I guess lifting heavier weights and feeling it!

The Plan: Try not to eat stupid while D is traveling this week!

The bad: cookies again! Lol!

The proud: I finally won a workweek challenge! I was so proud!!!! These friends of mine put in some serious steps so I'm proud I was finally able to win!!

No, it doesn't. I get the one with Oxy Clean, and I really like it. I don't use a fabric softener or dryer sheet, and I've never had an issue with the towels not being stiff.

Welcome elliecat17
Good job with the steps!!

[elephantmomma]

The good: I met over 10,000 steps for four days last week.
The bad: My weight is not going down, and I am still not ready to go to the gym close to my house.
The proud: I went twice to the gym further from my house.
The plan: Go to a gym two times this week, try to meet 10,000 steps three days. I'd eventually also like to come up with something I can do with a pilates ring in the morning but I'm not sure that this is for this week. Any suggestions?

[MissSally]

Hi guys! Few days late but things have been crazy.

The good: I've been eating really well!
The bad: I did have pizza for dinner last night. It was delicious.
The Proud: eh. I don't know.
The plan: I need to get my butt to the gym. I leave for myrtle in two days and then a real beach vacation in a week. Lots of travel happening in the next two weeks and lots of swimsuits and junk food.

QOTW: I use the Ecos detergent from Costco and I love it! I've never used fabric softeners or dryer sheets.

[4furrypaws]

elephantmomma four days! That's great!!! I've not used one of those rings but have seen them laying around the gym. ?

MissSally Hun you look fab!! Go have fun and just try to make some smart choices while on the road!
