    Not 100% 723 I fthought I had a bar in my purse but I didn't. I did have protein though in the form of shrimp and a salad but I was short a meal. Something is happening that has never happened before...I am just not as hungry. maybe its because I am eating better proteins than I did before.

    Hey Roger, send some of those cooler temps and humidity down to FL.


    Ok, this is a case of watch what you wish for. In my area, west coast of FL, a cold front is pushing thru. It is about 10 degrees cooler, but it won't stop raining. We are under a flood watch. It has rained everyday for the past week and heavy at that. Yesterday alone, my direct area got 7.5 inches. And it's not supposed to stop all week. 50 to 80% everyday. It can stop now!

    We are having dewpoints in the low 70's with temps up around 90. Took the dogs out before the heat gets up there.

    Hi All
    I went walking this morning, Again :)
    I ended up walking 3.05 miles Plus a run to Costco where I blitzed through buying the three items I had on my list, Light & Fit Greek Yogurt 18 pack on sale until 8-2 for $9.99, 2 ten packs of the Kleenex Family size on sale for $14.19 and two 5 pond bags of Frozen Normandy Mix vegetables @ $6.49. Each bag is 40 servings so cheaper than the 4 serving size when on sale at the Grocery store @ 99cents.

    It was 68 degrees and 37% humidity when I went out this morning at 6:20AM.

    Have a Good Weekend

    Hi
    It is my understanding that Proteins do keep hunger away, so You are most likely 100% correct. :)

    Hi All
    I walked 2.79 miles = 7700 steps according to the FB Zip. Yesterdays Dew Point was in the 50s and this mornings is in the 60s and going up to the 70s later today. No Breeze except from passing cars, Warm & Moderately Humid and I did work up a sweat.

    Have a Great Sunday

    Hi Flo
    That is how I will be feeling later this upcoming week as the temperatures and Humidity climb. They are showing a low of 78 overnight later this week. I may not walk that morning or I may shortcut the walk. :)

    A THI of 116 is in what I consider the danger zone. Be Careful

    Not 100% 7/25. Dang popcorn... WI 203.2 (-2) Dogs made me take them this morning even though its not that cool out there so we did our shorter path so they wouldn't overheat. I need to mow the front yard but I don't know if its going to get done or not today.

    Hi All
    I walked 2.8 miles this morning, I got out the door around Sunrise and it must have finished raining shortly before that, 88% Humidity. What helped was that the Sun stayed behind the clouds until after I got home. The town does a good job on our parks, After I got my Coffee at McDs I walked a new route and admired the basketball courts, Tennis, Horseshoe pitches, Etc. and the Children's playground. Lots of nicely maintained Grassy area too. Plus when I decide to extend my walks in the future I can walk around part of the park on the Roadway.

    Have a Nice Day

    Hi Ginny they are OK as a SC, I did not reorder them however as I do like Real Fruit better and have so much dried fruit that I need to use up before it goes out of date.

    Enjoy the Bargain.

    Roger Too...I can't believe you are still walking that far in this heat! I did mow the front yard last night and I noticed when I got done that I saw wavey lines in front of my face and on the grass. And thanks for your opinion of the fruit smoothies!

    Suegen...Horray for getting into the 180's! And for losing 2.5 pounds last week! That's terrific!

    Woohoo, I just have to tell you some awesome news. I went to the doc today, first, he was very proud of what I was doing, and second and best of all, he is lowering my diabetics meds and my cholesterol meds. 5 months of hard work to hear those words. I can't wait for my next appt in 6 months.

    7/23 = 100%
    7/24 thru 7/26 = Not 100%
    WI = 242


    Okay, didn't realize that I spent so many days not posting. Updated the spreadsheet several times, but guess I was just putting my days there. :smile: Most of my red days were more like yellow versus red. Too much eating out and too much sodium and carbs to count as green. BUT I am loving all your green days!!! I promise to make it less red this week!

    I feel you all about the heat. It's a heat warning here yesterday and today feeling like about 110 degrees mid day. The air quality is poor, as well.

    Sue - Congrats on the 180's! You are doing awesome and are on quite a streak!

    Oh no, just noticed the time... Gotta run and get ready so I can have my car at dealership in an hour...

    Happy Tuesday!

    Hi Mary. Thanks for keeping up with the Spreadsheet.

    I have made a mistake on mine. I couldn't understand what I was doing wrong with my start/goals, etc. Then, looked back on a document I had at the beginning of this Challenge and realized I did not enter in my correct starting weight here. I'm sorry I made the mistake and if you can't correct the Spreadsheet, that's o.k.

    Here is what mine should read:

    Start: 173.8
    Goal: 6 pounds
    Total loss so far: 2.6 pounds

    Hi All
    I got out the Door at 5:20AM, Sunrise was at 5:47, It was semi comfortable with the Humidity, However I did beat the heat of the day and Only had sun on my back as I was heading to home. 2.75 Miles, 14 Cents and sweating. The temperatures today are suppose to hit near 90, tomorrow is supposed to be in the 90s and a THI in the triple digits.

    I just did a quick run to the produce store, hot outside now.

    Have a Good Day

    I'm not going to do that again. I still can't get comfortable.
