lol, ok  Monday - also known as Butt Kicker MondayNo kidding, that's what my trainer calls the machine he "tried" to put me in. Nope, knees didn't like it. You kneel on a bench with one leg and put your other foot in a contraption and then push that foot up into the air. Yeah, well there are several machines there that I've just had to say nope to. Just for chappy I'll try posting more during the day. Blame my tablet for my lack of late night (ie just before the morning) posts that I used to do. Can't get logged in on the tablet and that's what I'm reading while putting the kiddo to bed. By the time I'm done the laptop has shut itself down and I've already read all the posts on the tablet. So it's day time shaping for me.rihannsu - love the new you and Adam would love that you are using the real you as your avi too. |

The summer heat has been taking its toll on the veggies. Last week's lot was a little sad except for the squash. For the first time since signing up for the farm box program I had to supplement it with stuff from the grocery store. Still trying to stick with it. One thing I've noticed is that if you plan your meal around having to "use up" a veggie, you almost always end up with a healthier entree too. As hot dogs and hamburgers don't go along with kale, chard, carrots, etc.
The heat also takes its toll on vigorous exercise but I have gotten something done every day -- walking, swimming, or aerobics.
I did have a recurrence of the nerve pain this week and it was never more clear to me that it has a strong mind-body-emotional connection. I got really upset about something I shouldn't have (always the way) and a few hours later my arm was so sore and laid up. It is strange to realize how our emotions attack our bodies in their weakest points. Fortunately it is gone again now. I was able to work out with the one-pound weights again yesterday.
Still with the baby steps.
This is for you guys:

Rihannsu! You look great!  Juniemoon, sorry to hear the nerve pain was back, but glad it didn't last. Hope things work out well with your change, so you won't have that stress causing the pain. I don't know how you ladies even exercise in the heat in the places where you live! I suppose you get used to it? And you'd have air conditioning I assume. We had a couple of days of around 85 - 90 and I had to work but was melting away and so tired, and my days are long. That's getting to be quite a high temp for here, average is more like 75 - 80 in the summertime. I got a walk in yesterday but went at 7:15 in the morning and was at least half the walk in the shade going down the road. Another walk tomorrow am and then I won't be able to get out early again until next Tuesday. Had another good week, down 2 lbs, which was actually better than I expected, as I wasn't totally good! I have now passed the halfway mark to my goal of 60 lbs. by 1.6 lbs, so YEAH! Was at the hairdresser yesterday and she commented on it, so kind of nice. Hope you all have a great Fourth of July tomorrow, but watch the calories!

Well this morning I was back to where I was two weeks ago. At least it was back in the downward direction. |

Well, weighed in today and down 2.6 lbs for a total of -10+ lbs. Working on it but still not exercising much. Having a lot of heel pain and not walking much. Think the limping around is messing up my back. Ugh! ;-| San Diego nearly killed me! Very high humidity and a lot of walking.  |

Sunday - MassageHave I said this before? well I needed, and got one whew, today. I've been getting packed, for vacation, not an Adam show, lol. Maybe it's not the packing that's killing me but getting everything else ready. In the morning I still have to reconfigure the electric fence to the area we'll be keeping the horse in while we are gone. Extra hoses all connected to one so that 4 different things fill up. Extra time on the sprinkler system so the garden doesn't dry to dust without hand watering. Extra bowls of food and water for the rabbits, slow feeder in with the fish, house set to dog friendly temperature. And yes I have people (as in multiple) to come take care of them all. The only ones that are left to their own devices are the chickens. It looks like everyone in the family will have their own computer/tablet so I'll be reading but probably not posting. I usually lose weight on vacation so I'm hoping that still holds true. I'm hoping, pretty please, that Chappy will put up a Check in reminder. Not that you all need it we've got a very consistent group this year. See you on the far side of a week.
