Good morning to all w/i was ok still up 168.8, calories yesterday 1900 burned 2500 so had a good workout, steps 11,000+. oh and carbs 13 kelijpa congrats on the unexpected drop! jen that is low calories for so much physical work! but if you are satisfied than whoop whoop novangel glad you found an exercise program that works for you, I tried Jillian and just could not get passed the military style ciecie and diana
Today is upper body training today along with my elliptical and HIIT, although yesterday with the legs stuff I am going to say I did HIIT with that as well I know my heart rate was up there. Food today should be less calories than yesterday so we will see.
Good morning ladies...scale gave me 196.4. I'm trying to stay positive that if my pms gain stay's in the 196s post will be 191-192. Last month premenstrual gain had me at 201...so if I stay 196-197..that means most likely a 4lb loss...also I am due for measurements in a week, but I will have TOM...so I will just have to stay diligent and positive no matter what it looks like
I can do all things through Christ Who strengthens me.
my left foot is pretty painful to walk on, my eye is better after some friends prayed for me though...it just deflated and the pressure is gone.
so on top of a migraine, I am not sure I will eek out too much. Goal is to do a 65s plank though
keli, that's awesome.
ciecie..how is dad?
Diana yay on the .2
Nancy, great on the steps and after I mowed, it was 13,000 ...I don't think hunger matters when you are too sore to move..
***14, 293*** was the final tally for yesterday
good evening! power walked to and home from my meeting tonight. will power walk to the grocery store after jeopardy is over. that place is to be avoided at all possible costs tomorrow. have something I need to get for my lunch at work on Thursday.
Ciecie, glad for the rain
Nov, interesting that running didn't keep you trim? Did u watch your calories and run?
Oh definitely was watching, I was running 5 days a week and it does nothing but maintain. I gained back some weight from the months that I stopped going and it's not coming off. I want to lose and tone and running won't do that. My body is too used to it. I can still do it here and there but it can't be my main source of exercise for the results I desire. I don't want to be skinny fat, I want to be toned again. 😉💪
Nancy: I like roast beef sandwiches, too. I used to get Arby Jrs, but I don't think they make them anymore. I think their snack sandwiches all have cheese. Anyway...I think they all have too much salt. I wish they would offer an alternative...Oh, I finished Handmaid's Tale. I am awaiting the release of season 2 on DVD.
Jen: I meant to tell you that you have a handsome son!
DIET: meal okay except for burrito and jr. burger and ice cream cone.
EXERCISE: I did knee exercises and swam yesterday and today. One day I did 46 laps (26 whole strokes.) Oh I biked 20 minutes today too.
OTHER: I did some sorting and I finished reading a book.
TODO: food mover
I slept in and it was really nice. I plan to go swimming today.
I forgot to mention, I have my food allergy testing scheduled for July 20. I can't wait to get it done, although, in the back of my head I think everything will be negative. I'm also thinking that my Dad passing away triggered something in my body that led to the angioedema, along with eating the large amount of cinnamon and turmeric. I don't think I was consuming the cinnamon/turmeric right after my Dad passed. I did have the angioedema symptoms back then. But I think everything got worse as I was eating "healthier" and consuming more of the tannin foods. When I stopped with the cinnamon/turmeric/tea earlier this year, things improved a lot. But, as I mentioned before, I still have hives daily, so I am unsure of that. Maybe if my issues are with tannins and things became so problematic from consuming too much, maybe over time it will calm down so I can consume them in moderation. Like an apple a day. Have I mentioned before how much I miss apples? LOL I know I have, sorry about that.
Last night: Full Body Standing Stretch
This Morning: Oxycise
I feel swollen this morning and I think it was from the fish tacos last night. On the menu they were blackened. I asked for lightly blackened. But I don't think the kitchen got the message. They weren't hot, but I could taste the salt and they were pretty salty. From now on, I need to stay vigilant to no seasoning. I actually prefer things plain, anyways.
Calories for yesterday: 1545 +
Weigh In: 189.4
Down: .2
Have a Blessed day!

July 4
James 1:12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
Christ allows us to declare a special kind of independence from the prison of obesity. Prisoners endure their captivity because they believe that they will one day find release. Through perseverance we earn the right to declare our independence from fat. God will stand with us as we fight for a healthier, more slender body. His Holy Spirit will help us withstand the temptations of rich, fattening foods, and He promises to bless our efforts to do what is right and good. Let us celebrate the freedom from flesh that God will help us achieve.
Today's thought: Faith in Christ can lead to freedom from fat!
I glanced through this last night. I am posting here, in case it would be helpful for someone else and so I can go back to re-read it later. I really think part of my problem with weight loss right now is more mental than actually anything that I am actually doing wrong.
Good morning to all
W/I down 167.8 and have no clue as to why, I even splurged on thin crust veggie pizza last night. So I must have really been holding water in, I did not even go to the gym!
