I haven't read this whole thread, but I don't think I would be very motivated by being told I was unattractive. I have four kids also, have doubled my initial weight (over decades), and my husband tells me every day I am beautiful (that isn't all that motivating, either, but still....). Not all guys are like this one.…

Ah, me too. And I'm still dehydrated, most of the time. I have a 24 ounce water bottle that I refill every hour. I think I sweat more than I drink.

That sounds like a great plan. I'm sure you will feel better after some exercise (to relieve stress) and a snack. Good luck.
-
It's 90 degrees here, too. The hot drinks seem to work better in the winter. Any chance you might be a little dehydrated?
-
I've heard even drinking hot water with lemon works.

Good for you, but I can sympathize with being too tired to exercise, especially after a stressful day/week.

And btw, 48 is not old! I just turned 45.

Are you up for some exercise? You could go do a couple dozen pushups, lunges, squats, burpees, etc., log the time as aerobic activity, and gain some wiggle room for at least a snack. If not, I find drinking something hot (like broth or tea) really helps to fill me up when I am not able to consume more calories.

I got in a little over five miles yesterday (in two separate walks), but I have had a few skipped days. I'm just resetting my goal daily - walk five miles every day, if at all possible.

I live near Memphis (Bartlett).

I split mine into three separate walks the first day, two yesterday, and I'll do all five miles in one session this evening (I hope). My goal is to get a little faster, as it is pretty time-consuming now. I don't always have one block of time, so mine will be different every day.
