Good morning friends!
Someone turn off the
please!! I woke up to a morning that was already 70 degrees and three hour later is now 90 degrees. Rennie, just read your post about your air conditioning at work. Is it fixed yet ? Anyone call it in? It's one thing to work in an environment where AC is not expected or mandated, but a different story when you have it and it's supposed to be working. Can't believe the end of the month is here. This year is going by too quickly

JesikaBeth: You are so close, girl! And as much as I love how exercise and working out make me feel, I completely
that if you can conquer the food battle, you've pretty much conquered the weight challenge. I know the two working hand-in-hand is like a well-oiled machine, but I know several folks who either cannot work out due to physical limitations like they want, or, don't want to exercise, who have lost weight and kept it off. You got this!

Hang in there,
Martine.
I'll keep you in my thoughts and wish you well as you tie up loose ends before your official vacation begins. I bet you can't wait for these days to go by so you can relax. As for me, I didn't have any plans. In fact it reached 108 degrees here yesterday so I barely left the house. However, I did take a nap which was nice

I'm so sorry to hear about your sweet pup's spine injury, but I'm happy that he seems to be doing well. The resiliency of pets (animals in general) is just amazing, isn't it! It really does take a lot to bring them down. Personally, I've whined for much less serious reasons
[QUOTE=Kukkie84;5272155]Good morning everyone
Still grossly hot and humid here. Luckily I don't spend most of my day outdoors, but my office has really cranked up the air. It's freezing in here. I've been going from one extreme to the next. Ugh.
Weighed in at 211.9 this morning. Have my lunch, dinner is half ready as well. Next week, hubby and I go back to our normal schedules of me doing daycare drop-offs, him doing pick-ups, which means I'll have a bit more time in the morning to get everything ready, but it also means going to the gym in the evening. I'll have to make it work for me. Like really work for me. I can do it!
You absolutely can do this,
Kukkie! I'm one of those folks who thinks moms can do anything.
I'm not a parent but I always thought my mom was superwoman and was always amazed at what she could accomplish in any given day! Good luck with the evening workouts.
When I do work out I prefer the very early mornings or late at night the hour or so before my gym closes. There is something about being there nearly alone doing your thing without having to jockey for equipment or machines.

Good on you
Have any of you bought/tried the TRY FOOD LOVERS plan? It sounds just like the Jorge Cruise 3 hour diet. I'm doing ok. Like Alicia I have been back and forth within the same numbers this month. It's like every other day I am up 1 point something and then back down 1 point something ... it drives me nuts but like some of you have said at least I know I can maintain (for now).
Well I just recorded my weight on my weigh in chart. Today I am 181.7. I was 183.0 on 7/1. I am gonna try to continue to go down until the first hoping to start August not in the 180's ... wish me luck

Thanks,
Rennie. I appreciate your support and YOU!
At times like these I have a hard time not seeing myself as a colossal nag
It's not a lie when I tell you that I actually do learn something every day.
I've never heard of the Food Lover's Plan or Jorge Cruise. Sounds interesting; I'll have to do some investigating.
My weight has toggled as well between 208-211. My goal was 205 so looks like July is a wash for me as well

EMERALDberry! I absolutely believe in the power of prayer and will keep you in mine. One of my co-workers was dealing with the same effects of menopause and was placed on an IUD which seems to have helped significantly. I don't know what that would cost but it might be something to think about and look into. It's nice to have the silver lining of a 7 pound loss!
