One upon a time there lived a sweet little dog who lived with a giant ape-like creature. This creature would consume vast quantities of incredible food that didn't come from a 50 pound sack. It had different colors and textures and smells, oh the smells. Well, as the days past the sweet little dog worked on his special "look" for the giant in order to fat-shame him into sharing his delectables. The little dog would stare and stare at the giant making direct eye contact during important Houston Texans games and occasionally add a whimper to maximize the pathos. Before long the giant was so guilty about not sharing his bounty that he relented and let the little dog lick his plate. The sweet little dog was so happy, he would lick each plate clean and often burp in delight. This became a habit for both the giant and the little dog and life was grand.
Then one day the wife of the giant (known in the village as the wicked witch) took the sweet little dog to the vet. The stern vet looked at the scale and then peered over his reading glasses at the little dog and said "you my friend are obese". The little dog howled.....

@MARNIsw I know you're probably testing my ability to pay attention, but your days of the week and days of the month are in opposite order. Please check the chart for June and send me a private message with any corrections needed. I went with the days of month being correct. Previously your 26th figure was much less, so I'm not sure but perhaps after you reported, you walked about 2500 more steps. Just check everything and let me know. Thanks Jess0 -

To many goodies this week.2 -
I had a good day. Smoothie for breakfast, Summer fresh salad and an orange for lunch. Salad for dinner.. Work was slow so I was able to catch up on my monthly Accounting stuff that I was far behind on. I also went to my dad's house house at lunch. My dad is in a wheel chair and he is getting a demo on a collapsible electric wheel chair. I closes up like a stroller. It's pretty cool. I think he will buy it.

Week 4
Saturday
Previous weight: 195.8
Current weight: 192.8
Still working on losing what I regained this month but very glad to see the numbers go down again. I’m feeling stronger in terms of my urges to overeat but I know I’m still facing challenges there especially with Summer socializing ramping up and a lot of it involving food and alcohol! The social eating and drinking is something I think I could indulge in moderately and still lose weight but the risk for me is that these are triggers that often send me on a binge.
@jessicakrall8 you mentioned the struggle with your eating habits and how it would never stop (something about always eating like a fat person?) and I totally get you there! Food is very addictive especially processed / fast food. The more we stay away from that crap the stronger we will feel but it’s a slippery slope! Just a few bites of something deep fried and I swear my mind is like F it all let’s go on a bender! Ice cream sundays and pizza and bread baby!!! 🍨 🍕 😅🤪🥳4 -
Yesterday I took the day off work to make this weekend extra long (we get Monday off for 🇨🇦 day). I took Molly to North Vancouver for a rainy hike. It was just what the doctor ordered to be out in nature and being active surrounded by beauty. Stress buster 💯! Hope you all have a great weekend!

I'm ok with that! End of the month is always bad for me, work wise, so I'm always stressed out which means I eat more. Now I just need to get this swelling under control. I discovered that dandelion root is supposed to be a natural diuretic so I'm going to try it out and see how it goes.2 -

Now taking participants for our Steppers Team for the month of July! Previously we capped it at ten members, but I'm opening it up to anyone who wants to join. Our number of Trimstones has increased to nearly 30, so why not up our Step team as well! Send me a message and include your favorite place to walk to get on the team for July! Need to hear from you this weekend as we get started!
Step team top three winners for the month will be announced as soon as everyone updates me for week 4 (HINT, HINT!!!!) Step it up people, STEP IT UP!!

@mulecanter Enjoying very much the misadventures of your adorable pooch!!! Give that baby some pie...just don't let wifey catch you! He's SO cute!! Keep sharing...I adore everyone's pet pics! 2
-
@mulecanter Love the story. I'm rooting for the dog! Maybe the solution for him is to stay away from that stuff that comes in the 50 lb bags and stick with licking plates and looking cute and sharing with the great ape-like creature! Perhaps he could make it a win-win situation!4

@bsgraham10 Congrats on the 3 week streak!3

@jessicakrall8 I'm going to need to chat with you about prices for bribing the scale. I guess I should be more realistic when aiming for a .5 pound loss per week that the numbers will be up and down and the loss will mostly show in the trend. I know that is the right rate of loss, since I have only 5 pounds to go, but I do find it frustratingly slow! I am tempted by the quick fix of bribing the scale!

The fridge is fixed....but I think the repairman jinxed my washing machine which stopped working the moment he left the door! I would be really suspicious, except he doesn't repair washing machines (just fridges and stoves) so there would be no personal gain for him! Of course, he could be in cahoots with other repair guys so as to avoid suspicion!

It's ok, none of you can keep up with me, I understand your reluctance...I pretty much rule at this walking thing...I'm sorry I'm so intimidating! Come on, take a chance...the only thing ya got to lose is a few more inches, a few more pounds, a little humiliation when I kick your booty...just kidding, but would love it if you'd challenge me a little and join the steppers!!
IM me your favorite place to walk to get on the team...only two so far!! 1 -
@jessicakrall8 I am already on my fitness pal with you. I cannot add you to challenges though. I'm not sure why. I can accept when you challenge me. You are also 22 hours ahead of my time as per Fitbit so I lose out on that many hours of steps. Curious where you live?1

It's been a long day of walking dogs, cleaning and talking to neighbors. I finally cleaned the inside of my van. I have a torn shoulder cuff so this wasn't that easy. I'm glad it's finally done. I made pickled eggs and did some gardening. I'm tired now. I need to rest, but what's for dinner?1

I'm in coastal Virginia, USA...where are you? Not sure why you can't add me to challenges...I get them from others all the time...that is strange...
