    Morning!

    Wow, two days in and already at 2 pages, fantastic!

    Thanks for starting this months thread Leela!

    Pretty madly busy at the moment so I'm going to keep it short and sweet today. I'm Kim I'm fromt he UK and I've been using this fabulous thread for 6 or 7 months now and certainly would have dropped out of my new health life style a long time ago with out it. So a big thanks to all the lovely ladies on here who have kept me going.

    I've had some good news. I won't have to move for my partners new job and he won't have to be away 5 days a week! So happy.

    Goals for today:
    1. Run after work
    2. Be sensible at friends birthday lunch but still have fun.
    3. Water
    4. Tidy the house so I won't be embarrassed when my brother comes to stay tomorrow.

    Have a lovely day! See you later

    Kim I am VERY glad that things have worked out for you!!!!

    Looks like everyone had a rockin' day yesterday!

    June 1 (yay)
    1.) water, it's 11 am and I haven't drank a drop!!!!!! I need to get on it!--YAY!!!:drinker:
    2.) make SMART choices. Right now the calories are my last issue. I need to wein myself from the junk again.--I THINK I DID PRETTY WELL.
    3.) Make it to church tonight.--YES I DID AND IT WAS A FUN TIME FOR THE KIDS AND MY BABY GIRLY GOT AN AWARD!


    Thursday June 2.
    1.) Gather food and create menu for Camping trip this weekend.--halfway completed this at 6am this morning.
    2.)water
    3.)pack clothes for camping.
    4.)don't forget to call dr to see what time my sons surgery is tomorrow. (I forget every single time!)
    5.) Again, make smart decisions. It shouldn't be as hard as I make it out to be. I need to not put myself into positions where I am starving and then there is unhealthy food choices.


    Hope everyone has a GREAT day. I will TRY to post over the weekend but do not know if I will have service at the campground. So if you don't hear from me, just keep me in your thoughts.

    Goals for June 1:
    1. Water.--Yes
    2. Healthy choices and track my foods--.Yes.
    3. SORT OUT ONE BOX!!--No. I may as well face the fact that this won't get done til the weekend!
    3. Bed by 9:30!!!--Close, but no.

    Welcome to all the new members of the thread!

    Leela--LOVE the new pic! You look great!

    Jess--Hi! I used to camp with my kids when they were young. Loved it, too.
    Ask yourself:
    Do my clothes feel better on. Can I wear things I couldn't before?
    Do I have more energy and am I more motivated in my other activities in life?
    Can I exercise more than I did before?

    It WAS 'yes' to all of these questions for a while. Then I wasn't able to get online enough to log all my foods and I got lazy. I am back to tracking (on a program on my phone) and it is helping a LOT! I am feeling like the answers will be 'yes' again--to all 3 questions. (It's already "yes' to the last 2!)

    Kim--So glad you won't have to move. I know you were stressing about that!

    Goals for June 2:
    1. Water.
    2. Healthy choices and track my foods.
    3. Call about retirement fund.
    4. BED BY 9:30!!!

    June 1's goals:
    1 - Drink my ACV - YES
    2 - Shred D2 L2 - YES
    3 - Zumba tonight (if my friend can drive...) - YES
    4 - (If she can't) No More Trouble Zones - DIDNT HAVE TO
    5 - Get outside at least once, and don't take the car. - NO
    June 2nd goals:
    1 - Shred D3 L2
    2 - Get outside at least once and not just to the car and back
    3 - Eat more veggies than fruit
    4 - Tidy my room
    What is ACV Steph?
    Mollie... ACV is apple cider vinegar. It's like putting lemon in your water, but it's vinegar. With some Stevia or honey, it tastes like apple cider. It gets the digestion going in the morning, and ACV is said to be good for almost everything - internal and external.

    BouncinBack4Me... Very glad to see that you have come back. Success lies in getting back up. :flowerforyou:
    I used to be the girl in zumba that hid in the back or made sure I was always out of the view of the mirror. Now I stand next to the instructor. There may be times where she stops and ties her shoe or grab a kleenex for her nose and points at me to motion everyone to watch me. How cool is that?! Once she even left out the room to go to the restroom and I did the routine for the next song. I didn't even notice when she came back in the room. So that's definitely a YES!
    That's too awesome!

    Hi Ladies

    Steph_135... Thanks for that goal Idea... Just what I need to add next time. Eat more veggies than fruit! GREAT ONE!!!
    ACV... Yikes! :sick: How much do you need to drink? I could probably handle 1/2 ounce :blushing:

    I Love reading everyones goals, It definitely helps with new idea's. And some I laugh at because I refuse to do them :laugh: Like clean the house.

    Thanks to this group, I believe I got out of my Funk. I lifted weight's 2 days in a row & worked out. YAY!!!!!

    Have A GREAT DAY :flowerforyou:

    NManda, how long have you been doing zumba? I started it last summer and I absolutely love it. I often ask myself why it took so long for me to try it! Are you getting good results from it? My legs are more toned than they were when I played volleyball in high school! :)) Always good to see a fellow zumba mami!

    June 2nd Goals

    1. NO MAYO (that will be an everyday goal for awhile I am sure! LOL) ----YES
    2. Get my laundry folded and put away. ---YES
    3. Make cookies to send to a friend WITHOUT EATING ANY OF THE RAW COOKIE DOUGH! --- YES and NO, did anyone really expect me to make cookies without eating any of the raw dough?
    4. Wash my car and clean it out. --NOPE
    5. 6 miles on the mountain bike tonight. -- Nope

    Had an unexpected date afternoon/evening with my hubby, so whatever....I am still floored that I have gone 2 days without mayo. Helmann's profit margin is gonna drop if I keep this up.

    Goals for today:
    1. Run after work - No
    2. Be sensible at friends birthday lunch but still have fun. - Yes
    3. Water - Getting better but more needed
    4. Tidy the house so I won't be embarrassed when my brother comes to stay tomorrow. - Yes

    Morning!

    Its Friday!

    I'm off to Brighton with my family today acting as a bit of a tour guide ("OK now, we're walking, we're walking... ...and we're stopping.") fortunately its going to be a lovely day but there is going to be temptation by the bucket load but loads of walking too. I wonder if I can get my parents to roller-skate...

    Any way, I didn't run last night. My running friend was sick and I couldn't resist the siren call of the sofa. Bad but I'll be back on it tomorrow morning then ever.

    1. Healthy choices
    2. Stop worrying and enjoy myself.

    See you lovelies tomorrow.

    It's great seeing everyone come back to check off their daily goals. FYI: Some people prefer to list all their weekend goals in one post, in the event that they are not able to check in on the weekend or they know they will not be around.

    June 2's goals:
    1. complete shred. NO, I WAS SO SICK.
    2. eat light throughout the day. YES, I WAS SO SICK...LOL
    3. drink water to flush out excess sodium. YES
    4. read and relax. YES AND YES
    5. Def. need to make it to the fruit market, I'm down to my last 2 oranges. NO I WAS SO SICK....LOL

    I was feeling so dizzy and nausea yesterday. I'm not sure why. But I am feeling better now. I did run a few errands yesterday, but didn't get to the market. I definitely will today as it is crucial in being able to plan my weekend menu.

    June 3's goals:
    1. call and wish my aunt a happy birthday!
    2. turn in my daughter's registration packet for school.
    3. finally make it to the market.
    4. try to get to the gym, even if its just for 30 minutes.
    5. go to DMV.
    6. return books to the library.
    7. circus @ 4:00 (I really hope to be don with 1-6 before the circus)
    8. put on a load of a laundry.

    See how much falls apart just from being ill for one day!
