    @colleenpamela @ChaleGirl @cmh7770 @SuriMc iIt's always great to see new people post on this thread.
    @Saragirl2 So sorry your planned holiday didn't work out. I hope that your road trip turns out to be fun.
    @azulvioleta6 Did you get that application done? Good luck with it.
    @joan6630 sorry I missed your birthday. Here's hoping you had fun and enjoyed the celebration. I like the drink instead of eat idea. I drink a herbal tea when I get the munchies lol PS I will keep you posted on the story lol
    @kwfitgal Don't lose heart. We all have times when the process seems to stall. It is just our bodies re-adjusting to our new beginnings. Every new day is a new beginning. Hang in there and take it day by day.
    It really helps to come on here and read all your plans. I love the accountability of setting goals and sticking to them.

    JFT Thursday 30/07
    1. Pre-plan meals; stick to plan.

    1. write everything I eat :/
    2. Tonite -- when I want to eat, drink a large glass of water, and a large glass of milk, and wait 30 minutes!! :)

    Busy day, and didn't get my food logged. But -- drinking the glass of milk really helped me last nite!! Going to try this again tonite

    1. log all food
    2. walk min 30 minutes tonite -- the heat has finally cooled down a bit
    3. drink a glass of milk tonite instead of snacking!

    @ jacqueinegikow.zumba
    I loved your blog. I just recently bought my 1st road bike, the end of May 2015. I really enjoy it but have not been on any group rides yet. That is probably a good thing as I am still learning the ropes and I have noticed how much speed you can pick up fast. The area I live in is very hilly so it has caused some challenges, both going down hills very steep and back up the other side. Your blog was very inspiring to me, I just loved it!!! You motivate me to get on and ride further. The farthest I went so far is about 20 miles :wink:
