    In July I will begin another elimination diet. After 30 days I will begin adding foods, one at a time, to check for additional food sensitivities. The last time I did this I discovered that I cannot handle most grains and soy.

    I will be doing strength training six days a week, alternating between upper body and lower body. I will also commit to walking at least 20 minutes per day in a cool place and not let the extremely hot temperatures be an excuse not to walk.

    Since the indoor pool is closed and I will be unable to do my aquacize class, I am going to attend a yoga class two days a week to help maintain my flexability.

    Summer 5% challenge goals:

    Goal: To actually have a true 5% loss. That is 10.5 pounds for me. I think that this would be a huge benefit because it would put me under 200 pounds.

    Exercise:
    1. Weights, full body, 3X a week (M-W-F). I already do this.
    2. Yoga T-Th. So I am doing something good on my off days. It helps with my balance.
    3. I want to add walking to my daily routine. I am inside at home working, and I need to take breaks to get exercise, but also to rest my brain. I will aim for 30 minutes a day.

    Nutrition: I count calories, stay away from as much grain as possible, and limit my sugar. Logging should keep me in check.
