Happy July 4th!!
Thank you to all that are or have served in the armed forces!
Fri 7/3/15
1. I will eat only my planned food - no late night snacking.
2. Work on cleaning the dining room
3. Swimming pool with Grands
My leg was hurting worse yesterday. The Dr. office is closed so if I need it checked I will need to go to ER. I really do not want to do that - but we will see how today goes.
I was so disappointed I did not get to see the Grands swim, but I know there will be other days this summer. Our two grands from another city ended up staying at our son & family's home. But we will have those two tonight. DH will be here all day tomorrow so will help.

I resolve to not eat mindlessly.
My father is in the hospital and is very sick. We don't know if he is going to survive this illness.
Yesterday was a stressful day and I wanted to eat for comfort. Eating that way does not help but is so hard to control. Dad is in Pallative Care and a volunteer brought around fresh warm chocolate chip cookies to all the rooms!!
Needless to say my resolve was weak and I ate one. It did fit in my calories so I guess I shouldn't stress about one cookie.
I just don't want to lose control of my eating during this difficult time.
Just keep my dad and our family in your prayers. Thanks to all for your support.
I will do that, Vicky. It would take a saint to resist a warm cookie at the best of times. I don't think I could have stopped at just the one, sweetie. I remember how difficult it was with my own dear father. You can do this. Try to keep strong.
Thank you Terri0 -

2. walk, enjoy art festival, dance Cuban salsa!
3. make reasonable choices when eating out
I'm really having trouble with the heat (near 100 degrees for 10+ days, no end in site, no air conditioning) and I seem to be having a bad fibro flare. I am active and take good care of myself, so I rarely have flares. So frustrating not to be able to do what I want to do.
Friday:
1. Rest and try not to worry about lack of steps
2. Stay on track with diet
3. Swim
Feeling a little better today. Forgot to wear my Fitbit all morning though...oops!
Saturday:
1.10,000 steps
2. Latin dancing and fireworks on a rooftop!
3. Do not drink too much

So have been A.W.O.L. A couple of days. Been logging but missing target so not super keen to come on here and 'fess up.
Bad side: Been over net calorie target every day this week, with a couple of really hideous overeat
Good side: Did 90 mins gardening in yesterday's heat and was pouring with sweat from the effort.... and... Did a 3 hour walk today in the sunshine and although I am still a bit over calories (enjoyed ice cream X 2 in the sunshine) it was a bit better.
New day tomorrow.0 -
Sunday's goals:
- do some gardening for exercise
- stay within net calorie goals for the day. No ifs, no buts
- get a couple of house chores done that I've been putting off (ironing, washing kitchen floor)
- do my meditation earlier in the day so I can stay more connected and at peace for the day0 -

Happy Sunday
One of the meds I am taking for the blood clot has cut my appetite to nothing. That is wonderful but what happens when I go off of it. That part has me concerned.
We have two grandkids with us today so we will see how my leg handles that. DH is here so he will help if I have a lot of pain again.

Starting off my day with this quote: If it doesn't challenge you, it won't change you.
The whole weekend was a challenge food wise but so glad it's Monday. I need to start over.
JFT
Track everything.
Remind myself when I make a good choice (like getting rid of all the baked goods that ended up at our house after the 4th).
Clean bath & kitchen.
Pilates (carefully)
Call doc to followup on torn meniscus. This is so discouraging & painful but I'm going to keep pushing on.
I'm totally avoiding the scale for the next 2-3 days- I can tell I gained just by how my clothes fit.
Journal
Joan6630- my heart goes out to you. I hope you're able to get some time to yourself (more bike rides). We all deserve some happiness & peace in our lives & I hope you can get some respite.

3. Dinner try new recipe

Hm...lots going on with everyone! Hope you all had a fantastic 4th. Lots of good reminders of how incredible, unique, and possibly vulnerable our freedoms are that were fought and won with blood, sweat, and tears over 200 years ago. I hope you are all deeply thankful for our amazing country, and for the providence of a loving God in endowing our forefathers with such great wisdom to create the most blessed nation in the world! I know I cannot sing a single patriotic song without tears coming to my eyes (and sometimes sobs!)

Today-I've decided to shake things up.
After my daughter is picked up to go to summer school, I'm going to announce to my son that I'm taking him to the beach for a few hours. We need some fun around here since I seem to be so serious these days. I used to be a fun person....what happened??
I can't surf on account of my knee but I will get in some walking.
Pretrack.
Weighed in this am-couldn't wait any longer. I'm up.
Make healthy choices today.
Find inspiration & be grateful.
Have a great Tuesday!
