    Hi everyone!

    My August goal was to stay at/near 159-160 and I have been up a little the last week, trying to get back to 160 before today but alas it did not happen.

    9/1 163.8 - but only numbers below 159.2 are considered a loss by me!

    September goals -
    -continue resistance training program (New Rules of Lifting for Women by Lou Schuler) lifting 2-3 times per week
    -continue training for half marathon 9/19 - running 3x week
    -start new round of HCG diet 9/19

    Hope to see the low 150's by the end of the month!!!

    I only managed to get 50 minutes in today. Had to sit for 2 hours picking out pictures so my Brownie troop can scrapbook tomorrow night at their first meeting. I definitely exercised to eat tonight! Had to do a last minute round of calesthenics to stay under calorie today. :ohwell: It looks like everyone is off and running with the challenge! Good Luck, Ladies!!!

    I'm in again for August, I was successful in July and would love to do it again!

    How I'm doing it-
    -eating lots of fiber and protein to stay full longer

    -training for a 5K in Oct, doing the c25k program, on week 5 this week

    -never going over on calories (that means logging everything I eat, and if I'm over at the end of the day I jog in place, do wii fit, jumping jacks... whatever I have to do to get under my calorie goal!)


    If anyone wants to see my food diary, send me a friend request :)

    Good morning everyone.

    The past two days have been pretty ok! I thought the detox (of sorts) from a vacation-style of eating would be hard but when you're determined to get back into routine and have a goal oriented mindset.... it's amazing the power of the mind!
    Also, when you take away the taste of the bad...you really don't crave it as much. Not saying that it's completely out of my mind but since it's not in my fridge or in the house, I just don't want it! :)

    My goal for today..mindful eating. I will not eat dinner in front of the TV tonight. It's a bad habit of mine.

    I hope everyone has a wonderful day.

    :flowerforyou:
