    Hi Guys:
    I am back from my trip to KY. The funeral was very nice and my family was surrounded by love by my brother's church family, Sally's daughters and grandchildren and the community as a whole. That's one of the beautiful things about being from a very small, tight-knit community. It was very emotional as you can imagine and to say that I was just "tired" when I got home last night after the 9 hr drive, is putting it mildly. Today I'm emotionally drained and exhausted. I'm resting today. I wasn't able to put in my walk time each day, especially doing all of that driving, but I tried to do the most walking that I could. Also, in relation to my food intake, I was VERY proud of the choices I made and only went over on calories one day, by just a 100 calories.

    I wanted to say thank you to those of you who took time to pray for me, send me positive thoughts and send me notes of encouragement. Y'all mean the world to me. I felt that spirit during the whole trip.

    I've tried to catch up on the step chart, but there are a few holes. For any of my steppers, Aug 1st, 2nd and 3rd is also included in week 5 of July, so if you see empty holes, please send me your steps for those days. I'll get them plugged in today and announce our excellent walkers for the month. Also, if you want to walk for August, I need you to tell me that. I'm not going to assume. Hope we can all stay active and on-plan this month. Here's to being bigger losers! :smile:

    Hi! Aug steps begin with Sun, the 4th so I've filled them in for you. The 1-3 finished up our July, so they won't be listed since you are just starting as a walker for this month. Awesome job though...amazing numbers! Your CW from Aug 2nd, I listed as your starting weight, so your first official weigh in is this Friday. Good luck and welcome!! Jessica

    Steps 8/2 7407

    Hi there! Because of how the month lined up with the days of the week, our August recorded of steps (and weights) begins on Sunday, Aug 4th, so keep reporting them every few days and I'll get them plugged in. Just got the August chart started...steps are at the bottom. I've added you so we're good to go. Good luck this month! KEEP IT MOVING!! :smile: Jessica

    I'm just getting back today and noticed that the group challenge is ours (Trimstones) for Week 1, so it's small, but it's powerful. Every day this week from today through Saturday, post the one thing you're going to say NO to for the day. It can be food, it can be something that's holding you back, it can be anything...what one thing is your NO NO for today?

    For me, it's sadness. I refuse to be sad today. Can't wait to read yours. Have a beautiful week!

    I'm finally back too, 2400 mile roadtrip. Sorry for leaving everyone in the lurch especially co-captain Jessica! My thanks to her pulling up all my slackerness.

    Horrible scale:

    PW: 202.5
    CW: 208

    Miles and miles of salty snacks :-( across the plains of Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa and Minnesota. I think I saw a hundred grain elevators.

    Monday: No to ice cream. Partial success, coffee shake from Kwik Trip's fresh blends machine.
    Tuesday: No fast food take out. So far so good, although a McDonald's Big Mac sounds really good! No, will not cave and will make the marinaded salmon I picked up.

    Hey Bryson:
    Hope you got my IM over the weekend while I was on the road and that it was helpful. I've added you to the steppers group, WELCOME! Wanted you to know that because of how the days of the week fell with the start of the month, we're actually starting our stats with Sunday, Aug 4th. WOW what a start you've made...that's awesome! I've got you down...have a great and active month! Jessica

    Passing up the drive thru's...there's discipline!! WTG! Your salmon sounds lovely...will you grill, air fry or bake it? Enjoy!

    Hey Kate:
    You're not behind...because of how the days of the week fell, our stats started with Sun, the 4th. Gotcha down...GOOD LUCK this month! Great start! Because of my trip, I'm way behind...hard to get back into the routine, but tomorrow is back to work so I'll get up early and try to get my first thousand steps in before I left for work. That will help!
    Take care,
    Jessica
