    What a great mid-year monthly challenge!

    6/3 SW: 295
    6/10 GW: 293.5

    Daily goals:
    >120gm protein
    50-70gm carb
    Staying hydrated (water or IVF)
    Exercise as able, core work daily
    Pre-logging every morning

    I'm still dealing with limitations in swallowing strength (but better with chewing :smile: !) , so the hydration will be my main focus this week. It's not easy for me to admit that I'm very dehydrated, but my doc encouraged me to call for IV fluids if I can't keep up orally. Guess I'll take him up on that if needed. I've let my goal of daily core work slip, too, time to tighten up those habits!

    Goals:
    Log Daily
    96 oz water daily
    10,000 steps per day minimum

    Drank a ton of water yesterday and dropped a pound of water weight overnight. Logged everything, but didn't reach my step goal. Rain and 3 hour round trip picking up kids at camp prevented that. Now I am working on today! Already half way to my water goal!

    This week's goal weight was 235 and I changed it to 233. Dance happy to report only one more pound to go. I'm going to give credit where credit is due. I found the book and website for Never Binge Again. His approach is self hypnosis type thinking and learning that a binge is even a single bite that isn't in one's food plan. That plus this group is all the motivation and encouragement one person needs. Lovin' this big time!

    A little late, but like others this is great timing for me! I have been LCHF since 3/7/2016 and have lost 30lbs so far - However, I have had a few ups and downs already (lost my grandmother last month (sorry to hear of your loss as well @baconslave) and was on vacation last week (which included vacation from my diet as well)). This should be a good challenge to get me fully back on track. So, here goes:

    @baconslave sorry for your loss. I love your meditative smiley. MFP deletes text after any emoticon when I enter on my phone. Good luck getting through the mess. Maybe kids handle grief by losing control and you handle it by gaining control?? Ohmmmmm indeed.

    I'm terrible at meal planning, especially lunches for work, so my goal is to plan and/or batch cook so I'm not googling for low carb fast food every day (which will also save $$) or just giving up for the day (which defeats the point of trying to lose weight).

    Saturday and no rain is predicted. Perfect day for me to add a bit of exercise. Today I will walk at least 7k steps and do at least 10 minutes of focused weight lifting. I've decided to move my weights and exercise mat to my covered front porch. That should make it more enticing to get 'er done.

    Thank you.
    I posted that smiley on the site. The app is really hard to use for posting. I do it if something comes up in here. But mostly I use the app to track and to skim the threads later in the day check to make everything is on the up and up.

    Gotta run out to pick up a paper to save it for dad. It has mom's obit. A simple thing like that is going to turn into a 15-20 min car ride. Maybe longer. #RuralLivingProblem. I don't usually buy a paper, so I don't pay attention to what gas stations or groceries sell them anymore.

    Saturday is only counting carbs day. I got behind on workouts this week due to the camping trip, so I've got strength training to do today. Core. It's going to be brutal. The house is soooo... :rage: They are doing their chores today. Or else. If I have to do it, privileges be going away. My dad is coming to visit briefly on the 13th which is immediately after a camping trip. This is ridiculous. It's hard since we've been so busy. Then the whole thing with mom, the rush 36hr trip, and me just losing all my give-a-damn. And we school year-round so we've got that to do. I may just have to say, ok we're going to be behind in the schoolwork and have to catch up later.

    Homeschooling is wonderful and a PITA at the same time. :lol:
    They're going to all make me crazy! Ok, ok. MORE crazy. :wink:
