    Hi everyone!
    PW: 245
    CW: 244

    1 pound lost this week. A bit disappointing as I have been on the 1 1/2 to 2 pound per week track. Slow and steady, I keep reminding myself.
    Hoped to get back on the exercise bike, but tried out 10 minutes on Friday and my knee was really sore the next day. So I shall wait a couple more weeks. So, overall am very happy with my progress for June, especially since it was a zero exercise month.

    its better than a gain though.

    Yes, you are so right. And I was up for most of the week, so I shall take 1 pound with gladness! I struggle with patience. The resolution for that is time and dedication. "Trust the process".

    Hello Shrinking Assets...
    For my Green Challenge, I want to be extremely realistic and would like to lose 0.50 lb per week for a total of 2 lbs this month. My hopes are for more, but I would be happy with 2 lbs this month. After my appointment with my doctor I am on more strict restrictions, due to my ankle injury.
    I will still keep sharing my steps, but am not expecting them to be to high this month.

    its the 1st day of July.
    I just got back from a very hot 2.5 mile walk.
    What are you doing today to help yourself be successful?

    I'm so up for this challenge! Went in a quick walk before work and did an arm dumbbell workout and now put in the park opposite my house doing a couple of flat laps to help my legs loosen up ready for a run tomorrow am.

    @boehle good on you getting put in the heat. Unseasonably cool here but the sun is back today, yippee!

    @lindamtuck2018 happy Canada day!

    Chicken and avacado fajitas for dinner, excited!

    I was strawberry picking with the family. All the up and down should count for some exercise. I am going swimming and to a Canada day celebration at the pool. Also, I am on point with eating today. Hopefully a start to getting back to my routine. I am going to finish my day with fireworks but that doesn’t give much exercise.

    Early night for me here as the alarm in going off early to get a run in pre work.

    Going to bed with my hair already in pigtail plaits for the morning, have pre cooked my breakfast veggies and made my lunchtime salad.

    Stuck to plan absolutely today and added a couple of extra walks as well as a 20 min dumbbell workout. Really want this month to be my best yet!

    @LovebyDraug69 I hope you're on the mend soon.

    @lindamtuck2018 sounds like a great day!

    Green Challenge-
    I'm going optimistic--my goal is to lose 12 pounds in July. That would bring me down to 245.

    This gain is not a surprise for me as we were away all weekend so we ate out and I did not drink much water at all.

    My goal for July is to lose 10lbs and overall be a lot more consistent. I am a teacher so now that school is over I feel I can focus a lot more on me this month and not be worrying about everyone else. June ended up being a lot more stressful for me than planned with the end of school and a pregnancy scare. My mind unfortunately was not where it needed to be. I also want to get more consistent with my logging and water intake. I do well when I am at home, but if we are away I do not.
