    I read somewhere if the top of your feet are hurting to change how your shoes are laced. I think it was skipping holes and not tying as tight. @TerriRichardson112 was that you or someone from the other group?

    My daughter did the laces thing and it worked a treat. She missed out 2 or 3 pairs of eyelets in the middle which eases the pressure on her high instep. I think I posted it in the other group as a reply to someone else’s post.

    thank you ... going to try this!

    I use acacia fiber, which is a little different from the psyllium fiber in metamucil, but the same idea. I get it from Amazon under the name Heather's Tummy Fiber. And I mix the fiber powder with hot chocolate powder, then add a little lukewarm water and stir that in, then add boiling water and stir more. Then I add almond milk to cool it back down. So it's a hot chocolate drink, really great for winter or rainy days.

    I would like to try to mix it with cranberry juice for summer. But when I looked for cranberry juice at the store, I was overwhelmed by the choices. Such a crazy world. Anyway if the powder is hard to mix, try it with a few tablespoons of lukewarm water first, then add the juice to that.

    Good luck with it. I know I read that the most successful diets on MFP were high fiber. You can find a way to do this!

I love to walk, and walk a lot. But lately I've been walking a different route with more hills, so I'm sure thats the problem. :)

    JFT Thursday 2nd June

    Stay under maintenance yes
    Only one snack, under 150 calories 2 - 73 + 92 cals
    Eat proper meals yes
    Foot exercises yes
    Back exercises a few
    Walk no, but did quite a bit of gardening
    Cut grass yes
    Plant bulbs yes
    Paint shelf no, I *really* don't want to do this

    I like the idea of a weekly snacking limit better than my daily idea, so will try that.
    I'm going away on Saturday for a few days, combined work/holiday, so hoping I can stick to my goals. It's always tempting to think holiday = treats. I have so much to do before I go (you know, so I can leave everything perfect in case I never make it home again lol)

    It's 8pm already, and I didn't find time to get online earlier. What should have been a half hour walk to collect my prescription before I go away tomorrow turned into a 50 mile round trip, which took 4 hours as I combined it with a visit to family when I was so close to them. It just hadn't occurred to me that the pharmacy would be closed for the jubilee celebrations, and the only one open was 25 miles away. The downside to rural living. Eating was okay apart from a cream cake bought by sister-in-law!

    I'll be heading off early tomorrow and working all day, but will keep track of my challenge figures and add to them later.

    Hope you all have a great weekend!

    Walking Challenge - 150 minutes per week
    Week 1 82/150

    Limit Snacking Challenge ( 1050 calories per week)
    Week 1 509/1050

    1. No candy, cookies or cake yes
    2. Eat under calorie limit yes by 225
    3. Yoga yes 1 hour
    4. Fast marching yes 15 mins
    5. Weigh-in yes 167.2 yay!
    6. Eat Salad yes
    7. Eat a peach I tried

    Well the peach was not quite ripe so I only had two bites. That's the problem with freggies, keeping inventory at proper ripeness is hard!!

    I haven't seen 167 in many months so I'm below my usual variation. Yay!
