    Happy Wonderful Wednesday to each of you! B)

    I realize I have been MIA but back today. Actually, I have decided to do my list in the mornings that way I can judge what I can do b/c of the leg.

    Today
    1. stay on plan
    2. no late night snacking - kitchen closes at 9:00
    3. I am going to totally do the office during the month of August. So I will do a bit each day, maybe not Sundays?
    4. Dinner in the crock pot (which is already done :p )
    5. START doing upper body exercises which I was going to do 2 weeks ago

    See you all tomorrow!!

    @ruby70 I told all of my family yesterday - I AM READY FOR FOOTBALL!! I had to laugh when I read yours.
    In my case it is Kansas State University football.
    Believe me I have already done the sons football when they were younger.

    Hi, everyone! I'm currently sitting at around 222 lbs, which is still too too too much for me.

    Just for today, I'm going to walk five miles: 2.5 to walk through the forest and up a steep hill, and then the same back again. It's gonna be a hot and humid day, so wish me luck! I'm gonna break a sweat. :sweat_smile:

    For today I will stay away from chips. stay under my calorie goal, work out for 1:20.
    For today I will reach out to two work friends and let them know that I appreciate and value their support and friendship.[/quote]

    Great day yesterday. Well under my calorie goal, worked out for 1:22 including 2.5 miles at a 17.06 per mile pace. No chip or any other issues. Caught up with two work friends and let them know that I valued them. One solid conversation, made the other a bit uncomfortable.

    For today, I will appreciate my job and compile a first half of the year accomplishment list.

    Good day yesterday. Diet wasn't the best but was well under the daily calorie goal and didn't over indulge on any single item. 1, 150 calorie bag of kettle chips! Solid 40 minute workout.

    Worked through 1st half of the year accomplishments but have more to do.

    Good day yesterday. Well under calorie goal. Almost didn't work out at all but looked on the 50+ "what did you do today" board and saw other's activities. Got my butt off the couch at 7 and went for a 2.5 mile walk at 17:41 a mile. Little slower pace but enjoyed the time talking with my lovely bride.

    For today, I will stay under my calorie goal and work out for 80 minutes. No overindulging in any single food.
    For today, going to roll the mindful workout into this morning. Focus on the activity.
