    I had a salty meal, I can't even get my ring on.

    I'm in the green challenge too. I've been stuck just above Onederland for months. I'm shooting for 195 (-6.5 from July start). I've already gone backwards 2.5, just needed a running start I guess.

    What's everyone's plans for the 4th? I have two dogs so will be focusing on keeping them comfortable as they really don't like all the noise. Maybe I'll head to the mountains.

    I assume we post this in here? If not let me know :) Ugh...not the way to start. I typically usually have one bad week out of the month...hopefully this was it!

    Week 1
    Monday

    Green challenge: shooting for 5 this month

    Yes, I have your weigh in recorded. I'm using the same tactic, gain some to make the final loss seem even more impressive ;-)

    I'm staying home and enjoying the fireworks in an air conditioned, kid friendly, mosquito free, ant free, no clean-up necessary, and stay away from the drunk drivers environment LOL

    I'll probably be right here reading a book during the day, then that evening watch some fireworks followed with a movie with the wife.

    Chapter Two:

    Upon returning from the vet, the sweet little dog was put on a 1 cup per day regime by the giant's wife (aka wicked witch). The little dog was so hungry having gotten used to licking out greek yogurt containers and dirty plates plus the perpetually full food bowl. What was happening? How could this be? Weak with hunger, he went to the giant's chair where the giant sits and looks at the talking window (Samsung 60" diagonal) to beg for food with "the stare". The giant would say "sorry, no can do" but then when the giant's wife was in another room toss him a chip. The poor little dog was so unhappy...

    I picked up an extra shift at urgent care for most of the day so not much other than work. I can see a fireworks display from my house at night from the country club near me so I'll watch those at night.

    Green Challenge

    Hello everyone --
    for the green challenge I want to lose 5 lbs
    I won't be able to weigh in on Friday so should I just wait until the next Friday .
    I started July off with a colonoscopy this morning. My weight was sure way down. :smiley: (but that is not what I used for my starting weight)

    For the 4th we will have a bunch of friends and families visiting and are going to the beach and fireworks. I vow to be laid back about having to "take care" of everyone and let people fend for themselves. I also plan to stock up on a lot of fruit and veggies so I don't get into the chips.

    I like your ideas Jonathan...I will also be air conditioned, mosquito free, ant free and no clean up necessary!! I will likely fix burgers or something easy in my air fryer at home. I'm not really into fireworks, but I do usually watch the Capital 4th on PBS, however in light of how the 4th of July celebration is being changed by the current administration, I will probably substitute a mystery of some sort or a Hallmark movie. I will certainly NOT be listening to a certain demented cheeto brag about how wonderful he is for two hours UGH! I wonder if the PBS special is cancelled this year...anyone know?? I always enjoy the military band and symphony that plays... I'm in the middle of reading a really good book, so perhaps I'll live by your example and finish that!

    Enjoy!

    I'm looking forward to my 4-day weekend more than anything...but we're due for storms on the 4th so I don't think the weather is going to cooperate in Virginia!

    @mulecanter Looks like your other dog is sitting guard, giving the little one the "evil eye" and the "ha ha...look who doesn't get any treats!"

    Plans for the 4th are a two hour zumba extravaganza at 9. Then friends coming over for a picnic, and then we will head downtown to watch fireworks from our off sight viewing place on UA Birmingham campus.

    We get to control the 4th of July menu...so chicken, watermelon, salad and something fabulous for dessert. We've got some gluten-free peeps coming, so may make something low-carb that suits me and them....and then real dessert for the others!

    Not sure yet. If it ever stops raining we might pull out the grill, maybe invite a couple people over. I work at 4am Friday so early to bed for me, probably no fireworks.
