Good Morning! It's going to be another hot one today! I may shorten my trip to the gym, BUT I AM going!!!!
Beverlyjoy--I am so glad the bday party was a success!
Right now I am making myself eat some breakfast. It had become a good habit, that I stopped thinking about it, and well...somewhere along the way I stopped doing it every day. So, I am having some yogurt right now. It's a start!
When I take my break later I am going to check out the Farmers Market to see what yummy produce I can find to go w/ dinner.
Hi chicks, Happy Tuesday!
I'm not going to post a menu today because it would just look exactly like yesterday's, with some baby kale worked in there somewhere. With DH away, I cook once and can eat leftovers for days! I did get my exercise in yesterday, both WATP (4 mi!) and swimming. Scale is smiling, but I have shoved him back up under the tub because I am so anxious to see a number starting in 17 that I have gone back to weighing too much.
Quiet day around here, just work, and kids going in different directions. Didn't sleep well, so I am behind on the morning work and chores, but no biggie, I'll catch up. Stay cool chicks!
CC, so sorry about the baby, that is so sad for the family.
hey gang. i was thinking about how in summer ppl seem lessed intrested in going on a "diet" and how right after the new year this place is packed to the brim!! isnt human behavior strange?
i had a very good day today, got some excersise ate enough food, its a good life
but my cat is acting strange and i crawled under the house lastnight to pull her out so i could get a good look at her, she seems fine so its a mystery. however, now my side stomach muscles are killing me!! it will anly make me stronger! it was such a good work out i was thinking of incorperating the army crawl into my regular work out, except id like to do it in a cleaner place with less spiders!
actully im suprised there is not a work out cd with that move, boy, it really got those hard to reach muscles for me.
any hoo... personals!

hey bev, glad to hear you giving it another go.
im spending my afternoon worrying about my cat =/
she is hiding again, im going to look under the house and if i find her. the other night she meyowed all night demanding to be let out, (normal behavior for her) so i thought she was feeling okay but now she is hiding again. ill bring her food and water though, i dont think she is coming out for it. sigh. i wonder if she has a toothach?
Hi everyone! I had today off w/ dh. We had a wonderful day! We slept in, did a few things around the house and then went shopping. I found two shirts that were on sale--didn't really need them, but they both looked really flattering so I bought them both! I can't wait to wear them! If I look at the day as a whole I did ok w/ food because breakfast and lunch were really light, but I definitely ate too much at dinner. The good new is, as soon as I realized I was starting to eat too much, I wrapped up my food (we had take out).
math puppy--So sorry to hear about your cat. Did she come out?
Ok, I really need to get my grocery list done! That's what I am supposed to be doing right now!
Oh, I almost forgot...I have a hair appt tomorrow. I am SO excited! I am getting hilights, cut, and my eye brows waxed. Not sure what I am going to do w/ my hair exactly....guess I better figure that out soon!
Hi chickies...yesterday I had a good, on plan day - I am so grateful.
Today DH and I will go to supper with our aunt - I'll vote for Applebee's - if I can.
Today:
stretches & movement
ice/heat
meditation
lots of water
log food
PMA
breakfast - kashi waffle with pnb, pear
lunch - egg white salad with lite cheese - open face, brocolli
snack - crackers, cheese
dinner - out - healthy
snack - oatmeal, raisins, milk
MJ - good job on wrapping up the extra food!! Enjoy your new clothes.
Math - I hope your kitty is OK. Keep us posted. So glad to hear you had a good food and exercise day.
Schmoodle - SO glad the scale is smiling. I know what you mean about the scale - sometimes, it's best left out of sight or I become obsessed. I find it's easier to eat healthfully when my DH isn't home for supper.
CC - so sorry about your friend's baby passing. It's a heart break.
Folks - have a good day - be kind to yourself.

mathpuppy, how is kitty today? Hope you didn't have to go under the house again! Beverly, glad you are back in your groove! mj, sounds like you will be looking spiffy with your new clothes and hair. Planning to post any pix? Rhonda, if you are lurking and reading, but not wanting to post because you are not on plan, post anyway! We would like to know how you are doing.
Have a great hump day chicks!
Yes, Schmoodle, I've been lurking lately. I've been struggling to keep on-plan and had gained some weight back. The last couple of months have been extremely stressful with family issues and I turned to my old friend, food, to help me get through. The only problem is that food is not much of a friend! I still had to deal with the issues plus the added issue of gaining weight. I recently went back on anti-depressant medication and I'm slowly starting to get the real Rhonda back. I'm so glad....I missed her.
I've not given up. Jus hid a road block that took me a while to find my way around. Sorry that I wasn't a very good accountability partner for everyone. I'll promise to do better.
Don't apologize Rhonda! I remember you posted you were starting the new medication, and figured you were just trying to get things squared away with that and with your family issues. Don't want to harass you, just wanted to check on you! Glad to hear that you are feeling better.
Accountability/Menu/Planning July 7th-13th
it will anly make me stronger! it was such a good work out i was thinking of incorperating the army crawl into my regular work out, except id like to do it in a cleaner place with less spiders! 
Enjoy your new clothes.
