Roger Too...I can't believe you are still walking that far in this heat! I did mow the front yard last night and I noticed when I got done that I saw wavey lines in front of my face and on the grass. And thanks for your opinion of the fruit smoothies!
Suegen...Horray for getting into the 180's! And for losing 2.5 pounds last week! That's terrific!0 -
Woohoo, I just have to tell you some awesome news. I went to the doc today, first, he was very proud of what I was doing, and second and best of all, he is lowering my diabetics meds and my cholesterol meds. 5 months of hard work to hear those words. I can't wait for my next appt in 6 months.

Okay, didn't realize that I spent so many days not posting. Updated the spreadsheet several times, but guess I was just putting my days there.
Most of my red days were more like yellow versus red. Too much eating out and too much sodium and carbs to count as green. BUT I am loving all your green days!!! I promise to make it less red this week!
I feel you all about the heat. It's a heat warning here yesterday and today feeling like about 110 degrees mid day. The air quality is poor, as well.
Sue - Congrats on the 180's! You are doing awesome and are on quite a streak!
Oh no, just noticed the time... Gotta run and get ready so I can have my car at dealership in an hour...
Happy Tuesday!

Hi Mary. Thanks for keeping up with the Spreadsheet.
I have made a mistake on mine. I couldn't understand what I was doing wrong with my start/goals, etc. Then, looked back on a document I had at the beginning of this Challenge and realized I did not enter in my correct starting weight here. I'm sorry I made the mistake and if you can't correct the Spreadsheet, that's o.k.
Here is what mine should read:
Start: 173.8
Goal: 6 pounds
Total loss so far: 2.6 pounds

Hi All
I got out the Door at 5:20AM, Sunrise was at 5:47, It was semi comfortable with the Humidity, However I did beat the heat of the day and Only had sun on my back as I was heading to home. 2.75 Miles, 14 Cents and sweating. The temperatures today are suppose to hit near 90, tomorrow is supposed to be in the 90s and a THI in the triple digits.
I just did a quick run to the produce store, hot outside now.
Have a Good Day

I walked very early this a.m. and then again this afternoon after morning meetings.
I'm not going to do that again. I still can't get comfortable.

Donna - Awesome job! What a great feeling to be successful in your weight loss and see the positive impact to your health numbers. Very happy for you!
Flo - It's no trouble, at all, and your starting weight is fixed! Was driving you crazy, eh???
Rogertoo - You are in a groove with your morning walks. I sometimes wish I wasn't working full-time so that I could get more activity in during the day. Although early morning exercising is not how I roll, at least not before the sun is up anyway... 8 am? sure... 6 am? not so much...
But totally get beating the heat methodology. It was 110 heat index today and at 8 pm, still felt like 96 degrees outside.
The good news for the weather is that it's the last day of super heat for awhile here. Was peaking ahead for next week's Muny show and should have a beautiful night on Thursday for Beauty & the Beast. The extended forecast also looks good for 2 weeks when I see the last show of the season, Oklahoma. Neither show will beat my favorite for the year, Holiday Inn.
Here's a summary clip of the show from youtube. It was such a great show.

Hi All
I got out the door at 5:45AM, I did not beat the heat of course, but it was not too bad until a little ways into the walk so I ended up walking 2.7 Miles I worked up a fair sweat despite getting home at 7AM it was already hot.
Getting out early is the only way to beat the worst of the heat and beat the sun beating down on me too.
Have a Nice Day

Hi All
I must be crazy despite the humidity and heat I went walking, I did do a new route so I could cut the run short and get home quickly from any point. That Meant I was doing an unmapped, unknown distance. I ended up going 2.84 miles and was soaked by the time I got home. Oh well, another day done.
Yesterday was a day!
We had the refrigerator repair coming on Tuesday but somewhere between Amana (Whirlpool) and the repair center it went astray and Ended up Wednesday after I called Amana and said I called the repair people and they have no record of an appointment? I am hopeful this will be a permanent fix. It seems that the original design was a problem in use. What would happen is that the water from the defrost cycles would stop draining into the pan and start running out of the freezer onto the floor. The repair involved installing a new design part that should be clog resistant.
The Yesterday The other computer just shut off. Based on what I know based on the symptoms it appears that the power supply has gone bad. I have ordered a replacement. It should be here sometime next week, Until then I have no way to print as that was the only one set up to use the printer.
Have a Great Day
Roger

Red all days
Hey guys. I've been trying to get in here for a couple of weeks. I really need it. I got a new BBB several weeks ago and thought that would help to get me back on track. But it hasn't, but at least this week hasn't been as far off as the past couple of months. I've let this get too far out of control. It's practically starting over.
Still can't walk much without pain. My PT sessions have ended so I just have to keep working on strengthening my foot and leg. I have to keep at it.
Roger
Goal: June 24, 2012
