@kirsten11872 yup that's fine that you check in on Wednesday for next week. look out vegas!! I hope you have amazing weather for your vacation.
@carlsoda that's what I thought! phew. i am glad it was a typo!!
@hope002 ohhh no. ok. you know what you have to do. now lets get busy and get back on track. do not let this get to you. this is a tough gig. work on improving slowly. you will get there. one day at a time.2 -
This weekend is going to be so hot. I am spending it in the pool. I will go to Zumba on Sunday. I won't get my outdoor walks in. I was going to paint or clean my house when I got home from work today but my husband shuts the AC off during the day. Today was not the day to do that. The house was so hot I plopped on the couch. I did finally start moving some things out of the room and taking the pictures down off the wall. I'm usually up pretty early on the weekend so hopefully it won't take me long to paint the room. I like the heat but 100 is a little much. For everyone experiencing the heat wave stay safe and cool.1

Good morning friends!
Yes it is a hot one today. We’re having a pool party for my teams today. Not too many are coming with busy summers/vacations and all. But that’s ok we will thoroughly enjoy the pool. We’re making burgers vegan and normal. Others are bringing sides.
I’m on day 5 of my cleanse. I drink all day long fresh juices and some store bought cold pressed. Celery, beet, cabbage, carrot, ginger, spinach...I throw it in our juicer. The last 2 days I added a chopped vegetable salad with 1/2 an avocado. And last night I steamed green beans and boiled new potatoes purple red and white. It’s shocking how much weight I have been losing daily. I also drink mango juice and fresh orange juice. This morning 139.8. I’m 3 pounds under goal. And it has been so easy. On day 3 I also added fresh strawberries and a cantaloupe plus a plum last night. This week I have purposely not done any exercise. I wanted to focus on the cleanse. Plus I drink lots of water and herb teas. I love the way my body looks. Exercise is so important but getting rid of the extra fat by modifying our food intake seems to have a faster result than exercise. I added 1/2 cup of oats to my smoothie this morning. I may continue to eliminate salt, sugar, oil and wheat for another week to finish transitioning off the cleanse. I’m really glad I’m doing it. I’m sleeping great.
Last night I counted my blessings: I love how my body looks, I love my new bras and pretty panties, I love my cute little wardrobe, my pretty little earrings, my new hair cut, my job, my wife, my family, my team here on MFP...
I’m 62 years old. I have had many ups and downs in my life. I am so deeply grateful to be in such a blessed space in time.7 -

I will be back tomorrow...in a nutshell...My niece, her husband and their 3 little ones (7,3,16 months) came down at 11 am yesterday. All is going well...then my brother in law (her father) called at 6 pm saying he and his wife were coming down to stay too as they didn't want to be in traffic on Saturday. So we do a little shuffling around with the sleeping arrangements for that. 8 pm my niece tells me that her sister and her 3 month old baby are coming too. So more shuffling around...Ugh! It all worked out and ended up being fun but a total loss for doing anything today. I am pooped!
They all did finally leave for their rental this afternoon. I will check in tomorrow.7 -
Sorry, guys I haven’t been supporting you here much at all lately.
Summer is just busy and I switched to maintenance mode til my kid goes back to school in September.
It’s too hard to get my lifts and cardio in so I just kept the gym workouts for now and eating more calories to maintain. I miss jogging and walking a lot but it’s too hard to fit in everything with no kid free days.
I try to read most of the posts so I’m still aware of how it’s going:)
Hope everyone is having a great summer!

Sorry I have been awol. I have been having problems with my board band and haven't been able to get on the internet. With my life guarding exam and life I haven't been able to sort it out until now. I have done a reset and everything seems to be working fine now. I think I also need to do a reset on my weight loss commitment. I am pleased to say that I passed my life guarding course. I had done bit of practice although I have to say it was the most laid back assessment I have ever done. The assessor would break of into chatting and then asked us questions not on the assessment sheet. We did the fitness test and the assessor said as the fitness test was two rescues we didn't need to demonstrate our ability to do a rescue because we had already done it.One of my tri buddies said it was the fastest he had ever seen me swim. When I finished the test it was like someone had opened the top on a shaken coke bottle. I did a massive stress eat. I came home did my turbo session and eat and drank.
This week I am going to do a plan. I am going to commit to journalling my food.
@carlsoda and @sleepymom5 I have very definitely broken pact. I could reset the clock or except that this tool is not working for me at this time. I will of course by there for you if you are managing to stick to it.

@amsandos congratulations on passing life guard test. That’s quite an accomplishment! How much more weight do you want to lose? I would recommend setting a goal date and breaking that down to weekly goals and nailing them each week no matter what. Be determined and finish this goal. You can do it!
@sleepymom5 what a wonderful family get together. You are such a fun generous person.
@kirsten11872 hope you have lots of fun in Las Vegas. Glad you were able to maintain your weight. I know how hard you work for it.
@lenka1 you have been missed. It really is hard to find a good life balance. Sounds like your doing a great job maintaining.
@cyndiesstuff sorry to hear your pain has flared up. You mentioned you are thinking about eliminating flour and sugar. You might want to try a 30 day commitment or even a 1 week. So much is mental. I find when I make a commitment the first few days are rough and then it just doesn’t matter so much. I think in the beginning your still questioning whether or not your going to do it.
We talk about struggles and plateaus. The worst challenges I faced on this journey have all been mental vs food related. How much did I really want it? How serious was I? And my fears needed to be confronted. Near the end I was actually worried would I be too thin? Would my pretty clothes still fit me? Would my legs and arms look like skeletons? Some of this was conscious but some thoughts were unconscious.
When I finally quit caring, I was able to focus on my goal at all costs. I quit caring how tasty that dessert would be, how flat my butt was looking, what my coworkers would think at the meeting that I wasn’t eating the catered lunch, how good those T-Bone steaks looked, my growling stomach at night...I just quit caring. Nothing mattered to me more than hitting my goal and doing everything I knew I needed to do to make that happen.
We all get determined and redetermined. We make new plans. That’s great!...but there has to be a time that you finally start making a Commitment to yourself...and keeping that commitment. We must learn to honor our words to ourself. We have to be people that are honorable. Others in my life know that if I say I am going to do something they can count on me to keep my word. I will honor my commitment to you and I take just as seriously the commitment that I make to myself.
Team set your goals and meet them. Just do it!

Week Four Group Challenge from the Workout Warriors
https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10755380/week-four-group-challenge-from-the-workout-warriors/p1?new=11 -
We only had 1 person show up for pool party. Good thing is our house is now clean. I really wasn’t surprised and I did very minimal planning. I have a new cook book “vegan comfort cooking”. I have been promising Molly I would make the crispy cornmeal waffles with maple syrup cherry tomatoes as soon as I was at a certain weight. Today’s the day!
Working on finances today and more pool time.
Stay cool everyone!1 -
Btw...anyone looking for extra motivation and entertainment, I highly recommend you look up Movie_chair blog under popular blogs. You can search her archives and start from her first post. Spoiler alert...she just reached her goal 140 pounds lost.1
