    my daughter came out and we went out to eat. I am not doing as good as i like. its been 2 weeks since I fell and hurt my tail bone. It was a struggke gettin into and out of her car. and the booth at the resturant was terrible. We stop and pick me up a donut to sit on on the way home. It helps me get our out of my chair better.I have a CD calledGentle by Catherine MacRae's fitness I will used till I get better for my exercise and then try to catch up with you all when I get better.

    Thanks Lioness for heading this up...............

    You know..............I dreamed about this last night.................

    Tomorrow I will creat the thread in the General or Motivational Support and we will all post our own goals for the month, big or small.

    The main point of this is to hold ourselves accountable!!!

    This is how I will keep up with my challenge unless Lioness has a better way.

    September we will each pick what we want to challenge ourselves with. Then October I will choose some area to focus on.

    Marie - It looks like you have yours all worked out!!! Your first name is my middle name.

    Talk to you soon.

    I am going to create a new thread...............

    Maybe kicking up your exercise a notch? Do you drink enough water? Hmmm, has to be something to improve on.

    Maybe adding in a new fruit every week and see how your body reacts?

    I've been doing pretty good with my exercise here the past couple of weeks and that wasn't a "challenge" per se. My water intake is always over 100ozs. :smile:

    Maybe fruit...maybe I can make a goal to eat fruit once a week and see what happens especially now that summer is almost over...

    HI, I will give this one a try, I want to get back on my low carb plan, Sept. 1 is a good place to start. My goal for Sept. will be journaling, 1. fiber 2. water 3. Net carbs

    I will try to check in daily, but using my cell phone, I do what I can. It is not an iphone.




    Hi Marie, thanks for the link. Re: your delimma, Jim uses stool softener. He takes one per day, even when he is not having difficulty. I think it has sodium, which I know you keep low, so you might check first. Phillips in tablets or liquid is a gentle choice for regular use. For me, I try to eat fiber in other ways besides fruits. Beneful powder, added to beverages, and Polaner makes preserves with added fiber. Also, I eat sunflower seeds and other nuts as snacks, and they help me when we travel.

    Hot drinks (coffee, tea) and milk of magnesia............You might want to up your veggie intake too. Drink lots of water.

    Glad your MRI looked good.

    Marie-

    Also, if you up your fiber intake too quickly, it can cause the unwanted constipation. :ohwell: I think this a is a common problem for people who start to eat well! Up your fibrous foods slowly and make sure you are drinking plenty of water so everything can travel "smoothly"!

    The tragedy in life doesn't lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goal to reach

    Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.

    Hi LLCers! Since Lioness has stepped down from leading up the challenge for September we need someone to fill the slot; I'm happy to do so. I've let the LLC group know that someone is needed and have asked if anyone would like to do this-if any of you guys want to lead us, step on up! :happy:
