    QOTD ( Tuesday Jun 21)

    where are the most beautiful places you've visited ?
    I've been to Hawaii and it is beautiful that was on my honeymoon 29 years ago yesterday. But sometimes I find just sitting in my back yard looking at the trees and the sky and all the beautiful surroundings that's beautiful too. The simple things in nature and life are breath taking . Thank you Lord for your creation.

    Honolulu. My husband had to go on a work trip and he took me with him. I was 7 months pregnant with my last baby at the time, so I didn't do all of the things that I would have liked to do. But it was wonderful!

    QOTD ( Tuesday Jun 21) : What is the most beautiful place you've visited ?

    That's a tough one. I'm a little jealous of all the great places you ladies have travelled! I was blessed to spend several weeks in a small town in Puebla, Mexico. The people there were poor, the town was small and dirty. But the people were so happy and loving. I loved looking out at the small, simple houses and the active volcanoes in the distance. It was so simple and beautiful. Also, I think where I live is beautiful. I have lived 23 years on the eastern shore of Maryland, snuggled between the bay and the Atlantic. Everywhere you go, there are fields of crops and rivers. It's so beautiful when everything blooms out and grows. I'm a simple girl =]

    I have not travelled very much - but the place that comes to mind is when we went camping in an Ontario Park up North near Sudbury - we've been there 3 times in fact....twice years ago with my two older boys, and then went back 3 years ago with all 3 boys. It has a small lake that is just so peaceful - seeing the sunset over the lake was just beautiful!

    Tuesday QOTD

    I love beaches, oceans, and mountains! The beaches in Alabama, Florida, and New Jersey are beautiful. I have also enjoyed spending time in the Rocky Mountains, Grand Teton Mountains, and Sawtooth Mountains. I would love to vacation in Hawaii, so I could see beaches and mountains in the same place. ;)

    I'm so jealous! I want to go! I know, everyone thinks I'm Jamaican, but it's just my name :-) I've actually never been.

    I went to Ochos Rios two years ago and the beaches were gorgeous! I couldn't get over how clear the water was.

    Well, I'm going to have to say Alaska. I also love mountains - so any snow-covered mountain is beautiful to me. One of the most awe-inspiring sights has been the night sky in the middle of the desert in Saudi Arabia - no lights anywhere around, so you could see every star. Unbelievable.

    Both of these sound amazing to me! I really look forward to my boys getting older so we can travel again (I know some travel with little ones, but I am not brave enough to take my two devils on a trans-Atlantic flight).

    My instinct was to pick a beach (I LOVE the water and sand), but I really think the French countryside of Champagne was the most beautiful place I have been: green vineyard covered hills, quaint villages, and the gothic cathedral.

    England. All of it was so green and scenic and wonderful. Even their hillsides have historic gems like the White Horse of Uffington. Stonehenge was definitely the most beautiful and eerie, but oh my gosh Windsor castle. I could go on and on, haha. ;P It was great. I envy people who live in that country.

    Hey everyone! I hope you guys are staying active and happy summer!

    Going to post my question now for tomorrow (Wednesday)

    Are you active in any other MFP message boards to help you with your goals? Do you have weekly/monthly goals? What are they and how do you keep track of them?

    Yes.. the late night snacking (LNS) thread to tally the days I do not eat past dinner/8pm
    some weeks I use the 3500 burned thread for motivation to burn a certain amount of calories a week.
    Also, starting this week I'm keeping track on my monthly calendar to run/walk at least 20 miles

    I thought this question might inspire people to try new goals and see what works for others. Small goals help me stay motivated and every bit counts!

    Lets go DITR and have a great Wednesday

    QOTD Wednesday. Are you active in any other MFP message boards to help you with your goals? Do you have weekly/monthly goals? What are they and how do you keep track of them?

    I occasionally look at other message boards and previously took part in a 7 week challenge, although was so disappointed as most people dropped out and even the organiser disappeared before the end.... So nowhere near as motivating as the diamond challenges. In terms of my weekly goals, I aim to do 30ds at least five days a week and walk most days, just use mfp to check track and writing to my partner tends to keep me accountable for this. If I go a day without exercise I tend to feel dreadful all day and imagine that missing one day will lead to me gaining loads of weight... Yep I'm a drama queen but it keeps me reaching for the dvd and the weights!

    Have a great day diamonds!

    What you are struggling with, what helps, a bit about your life, why you are on mfp....
    It's difficult at first but you soon get to know eachother.
