Well i had a lovely day walking around Chatsworth, feeling like I was in Pride and Prejudice! But without a Mr Darcy to sweep me off my feet! haha! Burnt off a good 300 odd cals.

Did well eating within clas and even made room for a Magnum icecream!

I was going to go for a run this evening, but was so tired after day trip, lay down to rest eyes and woke up 2 hours later! whoops!

Today I've been pretty good. I woke up earlier than normal (by about 2 hours) so my entire eating clock is off. I had breakfast at 6 am (normally 8 am) and was hungry by 9:30. Haven't eaten anything that wasn't planned except for a black coffee with Splenda. Now it is 5:12pm, (I had lunch at 1pm) and I feel like munching. Seriously. Like chewing on something for the sake of chewing since I'm not actually hungry. We have an emergency patient today so my planned 6pm workout is moved until at least 8pm (including when I can have dinner) so it is going to be REALLY tough not eating all the snacks we have here. But I will survive. 189 lbs here I come!!!!

On a lighter note: Tomorrow I have off so it gets to be a double workout day!!!!!!! WOot Woot!

Yesterday I began my day with situps. Five weeks ago, when I started a situp challenge, I could only do 6. Yesterday, I did 83 situps, broken down into five sets, with 23 in my final set, (3 more than the program asks for!). I still feel it today! Tomorrow my program breaks it down to eight sets, for a total of 86.

After that, we took all four grandkids to the amusement park near our home. We spent about 9 hours together, with a 2-hour break for dinner at our home. At various points during the day, I was skipping holding someone one's hand, and, at one point, I did a little burst of all-out running. We had a blast, but it was a long, tiring day.

Today was a struggle for me.

I saved what little energy I had for my physical therapy session at the end of the day, but then my therapist was ill, so it was cancelled late afternoon. I will confess: I couldn't find it in me to do anything else.

Tomorrow is a new day! My daughter, with her fiance and their daughter, moved in with us July 21. Tomorrow we will start to organize the garage for a HUGE garage sale on Saturday! AND I will eat the right number of calories, and drink enough water. I will do my sit-ups, and I will go to PT. And I will check in with you!

Love all the positive days out there! I had a great one too. Was worried about stress eating earlier, but I worked through it. I am even at the bottom end of my calories and with my run and workout done I have a good gap for loss.

Overall, a fabulous day! Working at home is really tough for me food wise, but my hubby being an at home parent is great for me run/workout wise.

Have a great night, everyone!

My day ended pretty much as planned. I feel good about my day.
