Good morning June!

Thank you! It is nice to see something tangible even though I felt my clothes getting looser.

How did your workout go this morning?

Are you enjoying your weekend with your son and guests?

I just finished day five of my challenge...halfway there! I have muscles peeking out of my calves. It's very exciting.

Enjoy your Sunday. "See" you tomorrow!

Hey Angie...........Happy Sunday!

My workout was great. I did 3 miles. I'm afraid I didn't get around to working out yesterday. We had our son, dil & friends Friday night, then more friends yesterday. It felt like our doors were revolving. We had a wonderful time with them. This morning I was up and at it at 6:30.

I'm so proud of you for your weight loss & your commitment to the 10 day challenges. It feels good to do a challenge, and then when the weight drops it all comes together.

We leave for our trip at the end of the week. I really don't know if I'll have access to a dvd player or not. Sometimes the condos have them & sometimes they don't. This is one of those times I wish I had a portable one. But oh well. We'll be doing a lot of walking. I'll just have to be extra good with my eating. And when I get back, look out! I'll be ready for another challenge. In the meantime, you'll have to hold down the fort & keep up the good work for me. I know I can count on you.

Take care & see you tomorrow!!

Happy Walking,
June

GOOD MORNING ANGIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Monday! It's a beautiful day in Virginia. Even tho it's supposed to be Fall, the temps are going to be in the mid-80's today. Hopefully the Fall temps will find us soon. It's my favorite time of year.

It's Monday Morning Weigh-in and I was down only .2. I would like to see it go a little faster, but anything down is still good. I'll definitely take it. I did 3 miles this morning. It felt good.

Well I'm off to get things together for our trip. Have a great day!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Walking!
June

Hi June!!!

It was a beautiful day here in Seattle too. Unfortunately I had to sleep through it because I'm a night shift worker. Fall is my favorite time of the year too. I love the crisp air, the pretty colors of the leaves, and that first whiff of chimney smoke from the year's first log fire.

Excellent job on your three miles! You're doing great!

I just finished my Fast Four Miles. I was just too sleepy this morning to do it. Six down, four to goooooooo.....

I can totally relate to your scale angst. It seems like you might be like me and lose in bursts. Unless your eating is totally out of control there's no way you won't start losing walking 3-4 miles per day. That's my humble opinion anyway.

WAAAAA! WAAAAAA! Already packing for your trip???? WAAAA!

Just kidding....I hope you have a great time and I'm sure you will!

Have a great evening and until tomorrow!

Good Morning Angie!!!!!!!!!!!! Happy Tuesday!! Did you know that Christmas is 3 months from today?????? Better get shopping!!

I did 2 miles today. We're going to be out most of the day, so I had to cut it short. Lots of things to do.

I'd love to lose faster, but I've always had problems losing. It's probably due to the fact that I have hypothyroidism. Even tho the meds keep my numbers in the normal range, I've always read/heard that it still causes a problem with weight loss. I don't have a lot to lose, so that could be another reason. I think sometimes the last 15-20 pounds are the hardest to get off. But I'm plugging along. A little at a time. I'll get there.

Have a wonderful day!! See you tomorrow.
Hugs!!

Hi June!

Sorry I didn't post yesterday. Our cable was on the fritz all day--so frustrating!

I did get my four miles in yesterday evening. I'll workout later today after we clean the apartment. Got company coming for dinner.

Funny you should mention Christmas. I just commented to my husband last week that Christmas is right around the corner. I did get some of my shopping out of the way last week but I have a long way to go still.

Why are we such slaves to the scale?? We were just talking the other day about how our clothes were loose and or fitting better. Funny how we can be so brainwashed about things, huh?

I just started doing some reading of studies by Mary Enig--in fact I posted something in the article section. Very interesting stuff. There's also been some research with coconut oil and thyroid function that I was reading. Again, interesting. I don't think I've ever had my thyroid checked. Someday I've gotta go in get a whole panel drawn.

Anyway, happy Wednesday and if we don't talk before...HAVE A GREAT TRIP! I'll miss you!

Happy Friday, Angie!!

I've been busy as a beaver the past few days getting everything ready for our trip. I still need to make some onion dip to take with us for snacking. But other than that, I'm about ready. We'll pull out early tomorrow morning. I won't have access to a computer, so it will be around the 9th before I post again.

Take care & walk an extra mile or so for me !! Keep up the good work. You're doing wonderfully!!!!!!!!!!!

See you when we get back!
Hugs!!
June

[OceanDreaming]

HAVE A WONDERFUL TRIP JUNE! BE SAFE. I'LL BE WAITING FOR YOU WHEN YOU GET BACK!!!

Didn't get my walk in today unfortunately. Will be back tomorrow!
