Oh hey…here’s a link to it as well!

So no need for tattoos @kperevosnik!

Hey @kspot42…

Remember your mini-Pledge…

Konica said it all. I’ll just add that 5 kilometerds = 3.2 miles.

I’ll let you determine if that’s too much for where you are right now BUT I will say that I’m very passionate about there not being any speed requirements to do this. So you don’t have to walk fast!

Somehow my life went haywire and I don’t even know how. Sigh.

But here’s the rub…it’s both in GOOD and BAD ways.

Good = I got a promotion at work! Yay! (This means more money and, finally, doing the stuff I love to do)

Bad = some money that was owed to me and promised to me last week STILL has not come through so I have to hustle to make sure…[Read more]

Oh Robin, I’m sorry to hear about the stress! I think it’s good that you are thinking about how it will impact you (even though that’s probably stressful). You know what I say…preparation, preparation, preparation!

I think you’ve set forth some very realistic goals so I look forward to hearing how it all goes. I’ll check on you mid-week!

WOOHOO! (I never had any doubts, but I’m happy that you’re happy!)

I hope you’re having a great vacation!

Carry a bottle of water with you in your bag everywhere you go!

When I was at OAC I carried my Ulla (here’s a link to what that is) and it reminded me to drink! But in the absence of that I’d just carry a bottle wherever you go and set reminders throughout the day to SIP!

I know you’ve got this. Can’t wait…[Read more]

I think you’ve got a challenge ahead of you, but certainly not one that’s insurmountable!

One good approach to take is to do what you’ve been doing – planning out your meals – and then looking at the meals you like with the intention of making them fit your requirements (not the other way around, trying to find recipes that fit your requirements…[Read more]

I like that your goal is to search out, but then your actual goal to make something is related to one recipe! I was thinking as I read “she’s going to try ALL those new recipes in a week?” Nope! Because you’re savvy, you are taking a step by step approach. Love it!

Be sure to post any good recipes you find in the recipe swap forum!

Woot! I’ll be checking in with you in a few days to see how it’s going but I know you can do it!

Those last two I really want you to concentrate on!

Let me know how the “water for coffee” thing works out for you. I can tell you my first two attempts at it didn’t go so great but the third time must be a charm because I’ve been sticking to it (even did at OAC).

Woot! You can do it.

Question: Have you worked out what you’ll be eating this week? Carbs can be sneaky suckers, so planning ahead is essential to limiting your carbs.

Let me know if you need any help!

Right???

Great plan! Did you ever find out if that worksheet is available anywhere? I’d love to post it in here. If not, I can definitely search for it. 🙂

I’m so glad you posted!

Today’s email was really about stressing that there is something happening here on this site that may seem small…so small that you may not notice it happening. But I see it! I see folks building better habits. I see folks trying things they wouldn’t try before. I see people trying harder at things they want but found…[Read more]

Mid-week sweep! How’s it going? I’ve heard from you about the logging and you are doing awesome at building that habit (kudos!). How’s the rest of your plan coming along?

Mid-week sweep! I feel like I personally have a good idea of how your goals are going, but still check in so other members can know too! 🙂

Mid-week sweep! How’s it going? Are you slowing down and chewing well? Also I’m curious if the eating experience is any different when you do that versus how you were eating before trying to do that? (I hope that question made sense.)

Mid-week sweep! How’s it going? You getting those workouts in?

(I see from FB your step count has been great lately – KUDOS!)
