I got 2 new pairs of cowboy boots and they fit with lots of room at the calf. Been 25+ years since I could wear anything but sneaks and ankle high hikers !!

Stress will actually make you hold on to weight, so if you are constantly thinking about that number, it could actually be holding you back. Concentrate on the positives and what you've already accomplished, and I agree with VeganRayne, stay off the scale everyday. I speak from experience here, I was a scale addict LOL,…

Hello all my beautiful friends ! I haven't been on here much lately and feel bad that I have been out of touch !! Things are going very well in all aspects right now. The stall finally released me and the numbers started going down again which is always a wonderful mental boost for me. The icing on the cake so to speak is…

@May Hope you have a wonderful birthday filled with things you love doing and people you love xo @Donna, welcome to the group :) Got a couple challenges this weekend, today is a community pig roast/pot luck, and tomorrow brunch with the girls. Eating away from home is always the hardest for me, wish me luck !! Hope…

Good morning ladies ! I am way behind on reading and chatting in here, been a crazy kinda week. The smoke has cleared then was relaxed with clouds and a little rain a couple of nights. Thankfully the pool water is retaining it's warmth and I am still able to go in and do my water workouts then relax. Got back to my crazy…

Good job !! Keep up the awesomeness :)

Been a little down so haven't posted for a couple days. I think it's cause the weather was changing, gone from smoke to clouds and a little rain, tho we definitely need the rain !! I hope it clears up soon, I miss sitting outside this time of night and looking at the stars :) @Kate, are you getting any rain yet? @May, yes,…

The little birds appear to have flown the nest !! They were there a few days ago but were 1/2 covered in feathers. Didn't realize they matured so fast !! The dogs are Armerican Pit Bull Terriers. I have owned and showed the breed since the early 80's.

Good morning my beautiful friends ! I've been slacking on posting, super busy weekend with a 3 dog show weekend here and incredible heat !! It was over 100 on Sunday and there are so many forest fires burning that the sky is grey from smoke and the sun and moon are an orange colour ! Thankfully none are terrible close to…

Good morning! Sounds like everyone's week is going well ! @May glad your MIL is going home and it will be what it will be on their end. Out of your hands but no less worrisome for you. All my parents and inlaws have passed on so I don't know of the kinds of struggles advanced aging puts on you and your family. Hugs that it…

Way to go !!

@jane and@pebbles, thank you both for your insights on this issue. I bought some lo-salt today which has a lot of potassium in it and will be seeing if that helps :) I didn't realize how much salt we needed on this woe !!

@kit I am Cindy LOL ! I am on the west coast about 1 1/2 hours east of Vancouver.I have been getting dizzy spells while working around the property and was just trying to figure out if it was the heat as I overdue stuff a lot when outside , or maybe lacking replenishment of nutrients. I salt my steak and my butter is…
-
I have a dumb question ! I was wondering about electrolytes also as @jane mentioned above. What does everyone drink to replenish them?? I have Mio sport but don't like the artificial sweeteners in them.
-
@azcowgirrlup , yes, I am going to also ! In this heat, it's much easier, more thirsty than hungry.
-
@azcowgirrlup , I was kinda thinking the same thing. Maybe I've been doing this all along but never consciously thought about it.I usually have a lunch/snack around 2 and dinner around 6, then nothing except my BPC till 2 the next afternoon.

Thanks @glossbones for taking charge of this challenge :smile:
-
I have definitely been sweating a lot more. I have dogs in kennels outside and my priority is keeping them cool and watered in the heat, cleaning kennels and power washing everyday LOL Yeah, lots of sweat, unfortunately I don't like pickles :( @Kitnthecat , I am Canadian too, have a Happy Canada Day !! @canadjineh Stay…

Your current weight : 247 Your Fast/Feed Schedule: 6AM to 2PM 7 days a week. Eating between 2 and 6PM Do you take supplements?:Yes, Multi Vit and 400mg Magnessium Do you plan to exercise? If so, how do you expect that to impact your fasting?:Walking and swimming, I walk a lot already and don't see it impacting an IF. The…

Not great at checking in LOL Maybe that should have been my challenge! On the bright side, my water intake is WAY up partly because I was trying to be more aware of it and it's been unseasonably warm here . Look forward to keeping up on this hydrated way of feeling !!
-
Good morning !! Well the pool is almost full! I am so excited, another rather sleepless night but on the upside, I don't find that I am any more tired during the day. Since this is unusual heat for where I live, no AC, only fans. I found myself sitting on the patio at 2AM looking at the almost full moon It was so peaceful…
-
Good Monday morning everyone ! @May , I hope things get easier for you with the family. I find that when someone is not well it is the expectation that everyone else stop their lives to be there. I understand it but it's not realistic. Hope you get a little more sleep. Congrats on the loss !! I suffer from insomnia so I…

They look really good, but for me I need to know more of the nutritional breakdown than just calories and net carbs. Thank for sharing.

@emmaps55 I too donated all my good "big" clothes as soon as I for too small for them. It helps keep me motivated, I just think, uh oh, nothing else to wear !! I also don't buy jeans with any stretch in them any more, same reason ;) Super hot here too, I am on the coast in BC !
-
Good morning all !! Hope everyone in having a good week. Finally got to my semi-goal and am down 126lbs and have an even 50 to go woohoo !! I weigh less now than I did when I got married 28 years ago (RIP Dave XO) Feeling pretty good about that :) @jumanajane , I am not allergic as far as I know but don't want to be stung…

Welcome !

I ate a healthy diet and wasn't "allowed" sweets and candy like my friends, as I was a chubby kid. This made me sneak food and buy candy and chocolate bars from the store and eat at night in my room. It followed me into adulthood where I would eat very little around people and binge when alone. I am a "if some tastes good,…

Fantastic !!

I do the same thing!! The only jeans/pants I wear are Carharts (I have big legs and they are suited to my body style) I got rid of all my jeans etc that had any kind of stretch to them. Then if I go off track and they start getting to tight, I remind myself that there is nothing else in my closet thats is gonna fit. Weird,…
