Looking, good to see you!
Late_to_the_Game (LTTG), yes, Sandye is pretty wonderful on her own, and I'm not just saying that because she wields a rolling pin
, but I have no doubt she is wonderful because you modeled it for her! We are just so glad you're joining us!
FSA, that total of lbs lost is awesome!! Woohoo!!
Thank you for adding it up and posting it!!
Shari, I've added your exercise goal to the July exercise thread! And you can see that I've included your "no pigging out" wedding goal here, lol! That's right! It's on the list! It's official!
Velveteen, I just know you're going to reach 85kg this month!!
Delphi, yes, your weight loss counts! As keeper of the goals, I'm making it official, lol!
Your starting weight is what you weighed at 11:59 p.m. yesterday, and today, as Day 1, begins your weight loss for the month!
CMof4 and I both got caught with that dilemma last month and didn't give ourselves credit for it, but I've had the month to mull it over and I realize we both lost that 1st lb on the first day of June, so it should have counted! And now it looks like she and I and you are starting this month off the same way! So this time, we're going to do it right! So yes, weight loss on the first day of the month counts toward that month! So
CONGRATS on the 2 lbs down!!
About the lunges, it's just the l-o-n-g legs! I have a 34" inseam and a very short waist and it's hard for me even to touch my toes when I am completely stretched out! Just remember to keep your knee directly over your foot in front, (don't let it move out in front of your foot) and then concentrate on dropping your back knee. If you have to, to keep from slipping, prop your back heel against a wall or couch or something.
Susie, I am SO glad you're feeling better and that you are going to treat yourself to something good!! You deserve it!
Cake, can you do some arm exercises instead? Could that take a few calories off without tiring you for the upcoming race? But stay away from that late night snacking, girlie!!
Drink water!!!
Blondie, did I miss your goals? If I did, I am so sorry! Sometimes it gets hectic, lol! Of course, if you just haven't set them yet, that's fine!! Either way, when you get a chance, could you post them for me, so that I can add them to the list? Thanks sweetie!
Ms_P: Congrats on the drop!!
Isn't that a great way to start the month! And as I was telling
Delphi above, that counts toward this month! That's not your starting weight! That's a first weight loss for the month!
Your family get-together sounds SO fun! I'm happy for you! And good for you taking your scale!
I think that's a great idea!! I just know when you come back, you are going to tell us good things about how well you stayed OP! This is your month, chickie!
CMof4, congrats on 160 lbs, girlie! And yes, that weight loss counts toward the month's goal!! Yes it does!! It should have last month and I'm now I'm making it official!
So good for you starting the month off with a loss!!
You and
Ms_P are about to be in the 150s!!!
Don't fret about your car lunches. Just get the lowest cal whole grain bread you can find and some lean meats like turkey or chicken and LOTS of lettuce and tomato and fat free Miracle Whip (if you like mayos--just 15 cal for a tablespoon). Or get all natural peanut butter and sugar free jelly (Smart Balance has all natural PB that doesn't have to be refrigerated) and make sandwiches. Then pack fruit and nuts for sides and snacks. And you are set!
Lewis, definitely, that 4 lbs is water. That's what happened with me with my 3 lbs in a day! You'll shed that easy!
I hope your soreness goes away soon! That sounded like quite a workout!
Gekster, good for you getting back on schedule! I know that when I wake up early, I feel like the whole day goes better.
Hi
Jellybellyjess! Good to see you checking in on this first day! That's a great start! Yay!

CMof4, and
Ms_P, I am starting the month off with a loss!! Woohoo! So my starting weight (as of 11:59 p.m. yesterday) was 182 lbs and today I am 181 lbs!!
