    Good morning my lovelies.

    JFT Monday:
    1. Walk at lunch even though it's hot and sticky (that's why I brought an extra shirt, deodorant and a hat)
    2. Only one cup of coffee, but tea is acceptable. It was going to be none today, but that wasn't happening.
    3. Dinner and after work calories below 600. (oh wait that means measuring and weighing, oh the travesty!/sarcasm/)

    JFT

    Meet with personal trainer. Special deal at the gym & I've seen this trainer in action (she's great). I've justified the cost of getting a trainer by cutting way back on the junk food that enters the house...much to my family's dissappointment. I don't know if I'll just do 4-5 sessions or keep seeing her. No harm in trying!
    Prepack snacks.
    Make a healthy supper.
    It's raining here in Mass. so a good day to clean!
    Journal & be grateful.

    JFT:
    1. Stay in cal limit
    2. Drink tons of water
    3. Go for 30 min walk

    Graduation party went fantastically well :):) ...Over 100 people--about 60 (?) of them were kids playing ultimate frisbee in the back yard....more kiddos on the swing/playset--it was amazing to see so many children...and really no injuries! Great conversations, lots of food, a big bonfire to end the night...Did I remember to say lots of food?? LOL. I way over planned--anyone care for some coleslaw or potato salad?? I'm trying out to see if they freeze well (anyone have experience with that?) coz it is too much for even our family of 10 to consume! Luckily I am getting sick of party food :) , and alot other stuff is definately freezeable.

    So, time to walk things off and drink a bunch of water!! I suppose walking up and down to the basement a dozen times to put stuff away will be good for me!

    Happy Monday all!!! :)

    This looks like a fun and supportive group! I re-committed to my weightloss goals (again!) and today is the third day of that journey.

    JFT- I will walk 3 mi and stay within my calorie goals.

    I did two out of my three goals for yesterday. I was unable to fit my exercise in for the day, however I did walk an extra 3K steps above my normal so I did not feel at a complete loss.
    I wrote this down earlier however I could not get to a computer.
    Just for today:
    I will not have any additional sugar (My coffee never tasted better!).
    I hope that everyone is able to meet their personal daily and weekly goals for this upcoming week!

    So, Monday's goals:
    - bootcamp
    - eat as clean and pure as I can for the day to recalibrate my system
    - be slightly under calorie goal for day
    - Come back, review and set new goals for following day

    I've also committed to keeping the promises I make to myself no matter how small. So this will be a good indicator of that!

    :-)

    Achieved all goals today. Feels good!

    Tuesday's goals
    - hit calorie goal. Will be a real challenge as taking my (94 y.o.) Nana out for lunch and veggie options aren't great.
    - come back and make new commitments at end of day

    Kwfitgal-so happy all went well with the graduation party. Sounds like it was great fun & full of memories. Not sure if you can freeze the salads. I wonder if a local shelter would take them. Now you can take a breather!
