It’s hot. (YOW!)
I love heat but the air quality also has not been good so I am putting my plan to walk the lake on pause until I can do it in the 8 pm hour (which I believe would be…tomorrow?) That way I at least have the benefit of sunset. But yesterday the only time I could do it was 6 and the news said the air quality and heat made it…[Read more]

Let’s talk about the struggle with the fluids. Can you describe?

I’m having my snack right now so I can get to bed by 10:00.
I’m currently at 100 ounces but figure I’ll have something more to drink before I head to bed.

Nikki Massie replied to the topic Marinades – Do you count fat grams? in the forum Ask a Question, Get an Answer 7 years, 5 months ago
I factor it into the recipe. Especially if you are working with cuts of meat like chicken, the marinade goes into the chicken (even the oil) and while not all of it goes in, for me…there isn’t much harm in counting that extra 80-100 calories (if it’s even that) per serving. Keeps me honest!
I’m interested in other thoughts on this.

In fact, here’s a quick link to get to them!
The replays are good if you can’t make the actual meetings OR if you’d like to do a self-study. I’m developing a little self-study guide so that if you missed this book, you can read it whenever you want and still have some insight!

I’m finishing up my 80 ounces for the y so I think that I will skip your drinking game! 😀

I’m currently in the car with my husband, headed back to Temple again today for my husband to get a steroid shot in his hip to see if that does anything to help with the pain he’s having.
I have all (12,500) my steps in and by the time we get to Temple, I’ll have all of my 80 ounces of liquids in.
Breakfast was 2 Unjury protein balls.
Lunch was…[Read more]

Today is my baby brother’s birthday!
It’s also the first really hot spell for Baltimore. Our weather is so…spastic. It’ll be cool and just when you are wondering if the season will ever change…WHAMMO!
But then I think of Robin and other friends in Texas and I realize my 96 degrees is probably nothing compared to their temps!
How’s the day going?

Today is my baby brother’s birthday! (Baby = 32 lol)
Today, for fun, I’m going to play a drinking game. You are free to join me if you like. I’d like to note that I’m picking the “drink word” based on a word I know I will hear a lot. There is no further meaning to it than that!
So here’s how I’m playing the game. I will keep a bottle of water…[Read more]

That term is really for lack of a better term as it’s a TINY amount of protein.
Basically I use Fage Greek yogurt (I use it specifically because it still has liquid whey on the top unlike Dannon, etc. what either pour it off OR stabilize it with additives so that it’s not liquid). Depending on how much fruit I have (in this instance about 4 cups…[Read more]

Water – eh. About 50 oz. I’m about to grab another 20 oz. as I’m actually thirsty!
Eating – good to go.

I really like walking around the lake in the summertime. It’s 1.30 miles around and I usually do it three times, doing run/walk intervals. I do intervals based on the lamp posts, which are about 1/10 mile apart. So here’s my plan:
Monday: Lake (walk 2 lamp posts, jog 1 lamp post)
Tuesday: Lake (walk 2 lamp posts, jog 1 lamp post)
Wednesday:…[Read more] -

I’ll be ending up with 88 ounces when I finish what I’m drinking right now. Had my snack 30 minutes ago and plan to start heading towards bed in another 30-45 minutes.

This week I’m starting again with my “7 Simple Things” list. Some of the days repeat themselves as this seems important for the events of those particular days.
I’ll be using some of the frozen dinners I prepared but didn’t need for jury duty. My husband has two appointments down at the Bone and Joint clinic that are going to be stressful and I…[Read more]

I’m at 84 ounces for the day and the last time I ate something was two hours ago. I’m heading to bed now, before I raid the kitchen!
This says that it’s twelve thirty something, but it’s just after eleven thirty here.

I’m done eating. I have one more water to go to make my goal. Bathroom visits have slowed down. I am thankful!

Let’s consider this a book club post. I would LOVE to hear your thoughts!
Also I can schedule the next one (after tomorrow’s) for a different evening.

Nothing to do with this challenge but…I finally broke 10,000 steps!!!
I didn’t walk all day but I did jog 4 miles after work so…that’s how that happened.
I also managed to get JUST to 72 on the nose with water and I didn’t eat before bed.
So today is day 10, a new day. Let’s see if I can do it again!
