    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

    Today I am saying NO to stress! I'm headed back to work after my bereavement leave and I am hoping for a fairly easy day. I'm sure I'll have hundreds of emails, but I'm hoping my colleagues took care of most of them. Hope ya'll have a terrific day too!

    What's your "NO" for today?

    I'll be announcing our step winners for the month of July tonight, so anyone who's behind and doesn't report them today, will not get credit for those missing days. JK

    I believe most of this is just water weight though. Just get back on track and get it off! ;)

    Today I HAVE TO say NO to laziness!

    Tomorrow I'll leave for my business trip to Vegas. I'm still not packed AND I still have to take a 3h practice exam BEFORE I leave, as I have the real exam coming up next Wednesday.

    for 8/6, I said no to the afternoon sweet that was calling my name :)

    steps so far this month:

    8/4 2518 (lazy day)
    8/5 4743

    keeping track really makes me aware of how little I am moving when 10,000 is the goal!

    I'm saying NO to rudeness, negativity and impossible situations today!!! I WILL have a good day! I'm also going to try to practice "paying it forward" at least once. Especially when there's so much hate in this world, I'm looking for opportunities to be kind. Enjoy your day Trimstones!

    No traveling food/temptations.

    Flying today, will be off forums in the meanwhile. Will try to stick to my schedule, and keep my fasting plan. (48h from last night = Dinner Friday, then Lunch and Dinner all weekend. Fasting again Monday)

    will be back Monday night, so will miss the weighin this week. If you want to use my weight from today that's perfectly fine. :tongue: AND it will hold me accountable to not mess up.

    PW: 158.6lbs
    CW: 157.2lbs (-1.4 lbs)
