    6.7 & 6.8
    Green: Yes & Yes
    Total 7/26

    I did the elliptical both days. I was away from home, but I was able to use the hotel fitness center and eat within my calorie range. No more excuses for me. :)

    6.8 Green... 6/26
    BUT! I decided yesterday to change what green means for the next week. My mom is visiting from out of town, and I don't get to see her that often. After stressing out about fitting in enough workouts, making separate dinners for myself, or almost starving myself during the day so that I could eat with the family, I decided to reorganize my priorities during her visit. Green through the 16th will be maintenance calories. I'll still go to the gym as much as I can, and not go crazy with my food, but it'll give me more flexibility while she's here and allow us to enjoy her time more. I feel good about it!
    Hope y'all are having a great start to the week - looks like lots of victories on the food front!

    Hello to each of you B)
    I am a newbie. A little about myself: I am a Grandmother of 8 precious little ones. We live in Kansas on a farm. I am a retired school teacher. Have had a weight problem since in my 30's. But, I have lost 50 lbs in the last couple of years but have many more to go.

    In March I started following the Paleo eating lifestyle because of a rare stomach disease. Of course, I am working hard to lose weight also. I do like following this "diet". It is becoming easier as I am learning more about it each day. Nuts are certainly my downfall. Can't eat just one - handful that is!!

    I am setting my June goal for 27 as I have already "blown" three days. So from today forward must be 100%.

    Thanks so much for this challenge!! :)

    June 9th = red = still 8/21.

    I've decided to review my goal and make it 25. I started off trying to make sure I didn't lose track with weekly calories, and after my first week I'm realising that I think a good balance for me is aiming for green as much as possible, and going into the red when I have a cushion in the week up to maybe once a week - today's red is about equal to yesterday's green leftover. With some extra room in case of a special event. :blush:

    Green: OH yeah!

    This week has been a rough one - and I realize it is only Tuesday. Work demands are beating me down. Only good news is this deflates my appetite.
