Hi all:
what a great turnout for Labor day--glad to see some familiars faces and to meet some new ones!!
Today I walked for ten minutes in the am and did 30 minutes of gardening, 20 minutes walk pm and did my leg exercises and abs. All done for the day and I feel good!
Also made some progress on some projects.
Tonight it finally cooled down--it got to 92 in the house today.
to Seasoning, Brigid, Helpmelose, Nina, Utah,chic and Diva! You all have great goals and plans! I know we can do it!
Seasoning: well I weigh a good deal more than you so 2lbs is realistic--the past two weeks I have lost 6 lbs. I will slow down as I get nearer my goal. Nutrisystem is geared towards losing 1% of your weight per week--so in my case that is 2.1 lbs. It will get smaller as I lose.
Brigid: great to hear from you! I see that you havent gained back all your weight--good for you--in the past I always seemed to gain all my weight back very quickly.
Helpmelose: Good job on adjusting your weight loss goal--I know that trying to lose too much has really messed me up in the past. Finding a weight that can be easily maintained is key!
Nina: good for your for not beating yourself up. I think you are right about this being a lifetime thing. It is really hard for me to let go of the fantasy that one day I can eat what I want!
Utah: good to hear from you--tell us a little more about you and your weight loss journey! I envy you being on a trip--I love learning about other cultures. I bet you could find some nice grilled meat dishes with rice and you would do okay with watching portions.
Chic: good for you for catching yourself before you gain more. You have kept off quite a bit of weight! I like your plan detail! I forgot to list water--I will drink 96 oz of water a day!
Diva: pretty name! I like how you have listed a total of miles you will walk--how did you come up with 150 miles?
Have a great evening and will chat more soon!
