Congrats on your great week and being so close to goal. Summer can be a great time to lose weight, even with it’s extra challenges. The days are longer so there’s more time to squeeze in exercise and fruits and vegetables are so tasty and abundant. I find the heat lessens my appetite too so I’m much more satisfied with light and tasty salads.

I had a good week. I’m a lifetime Weight Watcher in maintenance mode who has recently become a leader/receptionist for them. It’s a great way to stay motivated and accountable.

The things I plan to work on this week are increasing my exercise and being more vigilant with tracking my food.

Have a great week!

Thanks so much for these great reminders Brenda. Sometimes I just really need to be reminded of these simple truths! I am eating lots more veggies than I use to and am using stevia instead of splenda…making strides, one step at a time. =) Thanks for being there for all of us.

Food and discussions about food have been a big focus in our home since Thursday and will continue right through Sunday. In addition to it being Memorial Day weekend, it is the end of the school year for my children so we’ve been and will be entertaining teens this weekend. Boy, can they eat, lol! I was good about writing out my food plan for this weekend so I’d be prepared. Yesterday though, I did allow myself 100 calories of potato chips. It was the first time chips had been in our home in 6 weeks. I ate them, I logged them, and moved on, no beating myself up. Then on the way to take one of my daughter’s friends home they begged me for Dairy Queen, so I gave in, I however did not order a thing! I drove while they ate in the backseat. Yeah me! I was down another 1.5 lbs last week for a total of 12 now, so I’m really focused and take it a day at a time to stay on track.
