    Green: Yes
    Goal: 24/27

    I did a little run today. I also gave blood, which made me feel really good since I haven't done that in quite some time.

    @Rebamae So sorry about the news, but at least you now know what you're working with. Don't feel bad about needing to rest. Just try to do some upper body exercises when you can. Praying for a speedy recovery.

    24/25 today. Might make it after all! July 29...

    13.5 walked today. I had to break it up which I don't like to do but timing was an issue. 4.5 this morning and the rest after work. 1/2 mile short of the 14 today was supposed to be but it was an incredibly hot, sticky walk and my friend's back started cramping, we were done.

    I think frozen yogurt was earned. Or a beer... Decisions, decisions!

    green!
    Goal met, 27/27!!

    It WAS an icky sweaty hot day today. Walked 2 miles outside. Did Zumba this afternoon. Feeling much better, back in the groove again!

    @jenthibert you earned beer and frozen yogurt in my book!!!

    @R_Queenie nice seeing again!

    Happy Wednesday evening at my house B)

    I finally ate "normal" yesterday - whatever that means :p
    So here are the stats:


    green = 25*/31
    red = 03
    Goal = 26/31

    Streak = 3
    Streak goal =10

    If I keep my wits about me I should meet goal today. So we will see!!

    Correction: 25th & 26 th were green 27th was Chevy.
    28 & 29 WAY green
    28/25 total
    Streak: 27

    Yesterday I went to Barre class and today I just wasn't hungry, plus I did shoulders and bad. Off topic and probably mean, but I have been fighting laughing out loud at a young girl, maybe 19, who has been at the gym with her SO every time I have this week because she wears false eyelashes to the gym and leaves her hair down. Sweetie, if you need to look THAT good while working out to please him, then find another guy. And if you're interested in some other guy whose working out at the same time, then let this one go. But please, either actually WORK or get out of my way.

    @Rebamae - take care of yourself and don't stress over what you can't do.
    @R_Queenie - great job on so many greens and Chevys while traveling
    @baboons Gooooooaaaaal!!! Congratulations!!

    Two days left: let's finish July strong!!

    I did a little circuit training today.

    I'm sleepy tonight. I'll just say that everyone appears to be doing well. Appetites are back, and folks aren't letting the hot weather stop them from getting in a solid workout. Great job everyone!!!

    today was green,
    goal met 28/27
    Green streak- 14 days.

    @MelissaPhippsFeagins. ... lol, fake eyelashes to the gym? Whaaaaat? Here's my recent 'huh?'gym moment- I was next to the free weight area and this woman walks in, barefoot carrying this baton. She proceeds to do this very odd combo of Broadway dance, baton twirling, seductive routine literally 12 inches in front of me. I have nowhere to look but at her (I'm seated at a pec fly machine). No one else seems to notice so this just strikes me as even funnier. I kept looking around bc I swear there's a hidden camera recording it all for a show! I still have no idea what it was!

    I did a light run today.

    I love the stories about the sights at the gym. I literally burst out laughing with the lady and that baton. Hilarious! I think I got more tickled at @bbinoa looking around trying to find someone else who thought it was strange. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. That's something I would do.

    I am so ready to start a new month as last night was a disaster. I even ate food that is not Paleo. I suffered for it terribly this morning with tremendous pain. You would think I would have already learned my lesson, but not last night.

    I did make green but only "by the hair on my chinny chin chin". :o I was Chevy green.

    Goal = 26/31
    green = 27*/31
    red = 03

    @R_Queenie I am so very thankful that you set up this challenge for each of us. It has been a great motivator for me. Thank you for all of your hard work!
    I am hopeful you will continue with an August challenge.

    going out with a big ol' red to end the month! But it was oh so good. Wine, some very yummy greek food (lots of olives, feta, olive oil) and creme brulee. Mmmm. Celebrating our "we met 3 yrs ago today-iversary".
    Monthly total was 28/27.

    Getting back on track tomorrow and assuming I can roll myself out of bed going for a run :)

    Ending July as Chevy green. 27 over. July was great! Hit my goals and got lots of miles on my feet, lol...

    Since the other day was a bust and one of our group wasn't able to go I'm hauling my butt out of bed to walk 14 miles in the morning. Then my niece's play and then a nap by the lake. Yeah baby... Might even squeeze in some time in the kayak. I love summer in Maine!

    My dog, a chocolate lab, was just standing on the side table next to the couch staring at my son eating his ice cream. I know how the poor thing feels but I wish he wasn't standing on my table.

    I did some strength training today.

    @tatho2014 Congrats on a green month!
    @Rebamae You're on your way to getting back on track!
    @bbinoa Happy 3rd We Met Anniversary! I'm sure you'll get that run in tomorrow.
    @jenthibert That's great you met your goals for the month! You rock! Your agenda for tomorrow sounds so relaxing. May you enjoy every minute of it. Tell your dog to get off that table. Ha, ha, ha, ha. I can understand the drooling over the ice cream though. :)

    That is too funny. My son identified false eyelash girl as "Oh, she's a cheerleader." as if that totally explained it all.

    My dog is a black lab, who watched my son eat the ice cream and put the bowl in the sink. She then dragged my kitchen stool to the sink, stood on it and put her head in the sink to lick the bowl. I was laughing so hard that I didn't even try to stop her.
