Maile She believes in daily weighing and in reversing the small gains immediately. LOVE that! Once again, thanks for sharing!
lizzy Way to go on getting to your range without doing much...sounds like you've nailed maintenance girl!
Totally get the lose a few before vacation. I used to look at people strangely when they lost 5-10 lbs before they went on a two week trip to Mexico. SO so get it now! lol
joysh It's attacking the lbs now and not waiting that seems to be key for me. As much as I don't want to do what I have to do I have a quote "you don't have to like it, you just have to do it" In fact, it's on the white board in the kitchen.
A1Texan Welcome to maintenance! Congrats!
Liz Girl, I was totally thinking about you and wondering how you were doing. So glad you checked in!
Almost done!!!
Sansfilter Always take encouragement from you coach, I was horrible for that. We're always harder on ourselves then we are on other people. So yes, keeping your weight in a consistent area is GREAT! So yes, you're doing GREAT
M35A2 LOL about your fish and chips...good NSV! Be sure to really savor your fish and chips in Ireland. Take time with your first feed off of it and see if it tastes the same and if you like it as much. I'm not interested in pizza anymore but boy did I think about it before I ate it. You might be surprised.
workingit50 Happy Birthday (sorry it's late!)

So VIP is off to Ottawa for a father son bonding trip. I missed him as soon as he walked out the door. lol I'm staying home this long weekend and just puttering and being by myself. I feel like June and July were a whirl wind of activity for me and at some points of the month I would say "I want to crawl under a rock". SO, although I'm a little worried I'll be lonely with everyone else having family time on trips or at the lake I think it will be a good thing and a good 're-set'.
Kinda looking forward to it.
I have been running again and this time not being so competitive with myself and just enjoying the running and how it makes me feel. I'm doing well with that and just signed up for a 5K. Which I know I can do...I almost signed up for the 10K but then I'd like my competitive gal in me out. That's what got me into trouble in the first place "go faster, go longer, go harder". Now I just 'run' and repeat "it's ok, you can just run you are not racing anyway" Looking forward to the race (which I wish was called a run lol) as I'm doing it with the VIP
I found a little 'picture' about exercise that made me laugh this morning so I thought I'd share it with you.
Hope everyone has a wonderful day!
