When I walk outdoors, I use the little fans that blow insect repellent. They work well, and you don't have to spray anything on your skin.

I went up alittle... sigh.. and I don't even want to see it in writing LOL.... I have been so good..... But I am retaining water like nuts... My feet are swollen and I drink plain ole water about 40+ oz a day.. I guess I need to really lower my sodium. Its so hard to see puffy skin over my sandal straps (and its just been in the last 3 weeks that this had happened and I weigh less) Just don't know.

Glad everyone is walking... ME TOO (2.25 last night) trying to do 10 miles a week. Have a truly wonderful day!

Hi everybody,
I was here a couple of months ago but fell off the wagon. I lost 22 but put 6 back on so...only 16 off since Jan. I would like to join this challenge, stay focused and see what I can do in a month. I will add my loss to the already 16 rather than start on 0, for personal motivation , I hope that's Ok with you. Thank you and best of luck to us all!

Welcome back futurehealthyme!!!

True confession: Didn't walk yesterday and weighed twice!!ugh!!

I am retaining water this week too Wannaskipandlaugh and it is making me crazy!! I read on some blogs not to get wrapped up in daily scale movements and that water retention is normal from exercise. Plus I know I ate extra salt this weekend!!

Planning to walk today....and to stay off the scale for a little while!!

Still the same weight.... I have not lost anything for a week now... Something is up ..... 6 weeks ago this same thing happened... so I know that the stall will go away... I just am amazed that at my weight that I have a stall... sad sue.... Going out to Longhorn for my Mom's birthday and having a steak and a salad.... more sodium... but I only eat steak out and am going to enjoy it.

I hope that you all had a good weekend and the scale is nice to you today!

Hi - Reporting 203 again today - I know this is a long journey but I do wish the scale would move faster - not sure why I suddenly got so wrapped up in the scale - I was doing pretty good not obsessing about numbers. Wishing downdowndown for everyone!!!
