Hey ladies -

Sorry to hear some of you are having a rough go of it lately - ****, if we didn't all have deeper issues of some sort then we probably wouldn't need this forum Keep hanging in there everyone, the highs never occur without the lows as well.

DH wants to do P90X (this is the man who hasn't exercised since college), his idea not mine; but he wants us to do it together so hopefully we'll see some results. Should be here sometime next week or so, wish us luck - I'll let you all know how it is.

Food wasn't the best today - basically I ate carbs all day long, latte for bfast, bagel for lunch, pasta for dinner. All this beautiful produce at my house and I eat pasta (although it had homemade pesto, does that count?)

WEED for tomorrow:
W - 64+
E - I'll try and figure something out
E - On Plan
D - get ready for our trip to Buffalo for my cousins wedding

I brewed a big spot of 2x strength coffee for iced coffee, trying to find treats that don't break the calorie bank!

I had a great run this morning! I've been out several times walking with the dogs and stayed OP with my eating. Hoping to see a good number this week, really really want to get back out of the 150's asap!!

Today, I met my goal for water and food but did not exercise at all. I was exhausted and took a 4 hour nap this evening (slept the evening away). Tomorrow is a new day and I will start over with a new goal. I hope you all had a nice day!!

Good Morning, all!

Tiara, congratulations on your success!
Emiloots, I think the pesto is the best part!
Mothermavis, hooray for staying on plan. I don't see quick results anymore, and I find staying on plan is reassuring.
Love2b, am sending you lots of good thoughts.
SouthernBelle, I wish you much success with your new goal.

Today's WEED:

W: 16 eight-ounce glasses
E: Usual lovely things
E: Keeping my plan. I revised my plan and like it much better!
D: Keeping God first, in all things.

I wish you a beautiful start today, and lovely victories each moment, all day!

Morning ladies -

love2b - that's the right attitude, can't change the past, only look to tomorrow as a new day

southern - hope you enjoyed your nap, you must have needed it!

mavis - congrats on sticking to it, hope your hard work reflects in the scale this week

Doing OK here, 164.6 this morning so better than it was a week or so ago. Trying to get back to counting points, it's what I was successful with before the bambinos so we'll give it a shot again. Hope everyone has a great day.

W - 64+
E - really need to work on this, none currently planned
E - OP
D - pack, clean the house, read a little before bed

Still on vacation for a few more days. Going to the Y right in the middle of the morning!! Raquetball if YS agrees. Adaptive trainer thing if he doesn't!

I am not a camping fan, we go once in a great while, but I am not a good camper. I always tell DH, my idea of camping is a hotel without a heated pool!

I do have to get to the grocery today and the farmers market is tomorrow!

W 100
E Y
E POP
D Silver is right, if God is first, the rest comes together!

Thanks, Tiara! Thanks, Silver! Yes, Emiloots, I think I definitely needed it!! I hope that you are all having a good morning! Enjoy the rest of your vacay, Mother mavis! Congrats to you for sticking with your exercise even when you are on vacation! I am with you on the camping thing

Todays WEED:

W=64+
E= walk tonight with my mother
E= stick within daily cal amount
D= Remember to have more conversations with God throughout the day (not just when I need something)

Hello, all!

Mothermavis, are you tent camping? I did that a great deal as a child and have switched to trailer camping, which I thoroughly enjoy. Full kitchen and bath right there, hot water, gas stove, closets, a real bed. Mmmm, and out in the country to watch the stars and the fireflies. I think tent camping is for the young and hardy. I will admit that I went through a staying-in-hotels phase, too. But now, I prefer staying in a trailer. Will you smile at the stars for me? I think I'd enjoy being a full-time RVer.

KimL, do you know about taking a bath with vinegar in it to help sunburn? Please be careful in the sun. I spent a lot of time in the sun in Arizona when I was in college and I have sun-damaged skin because of it. We used to lay out in the sun, sometimes at mid-day and in the afternoon, slathered in baby oil, and drink watered-down Welch's grape juice.

Am off to do chores and errands. Will check in later.

Yesterday's WEED went okay.

Thanks for the support everyone. I am somewhat resigned to this week not being good. But will keep pushing as best I can.
