7-8-15 Thursday Weigh-In..Good Old Summer Time

The fourth came and went

Some people slept in a tent

Others had BBQ's and ate a lot

Some were good and did not

Some went to the beach or lake

Their menu was ice cream and cake

Some went running,hiking or rode a bike

Others didn't they napped.. did what they like

So what ever you did this holiday

Summer is here so do enjoy it your way

But alas I have to remind you as your in your seat

Summer is around awhile..still exercise and watch what you eat

Morning all, excellent poem to wake up to once again - thanks Belle!

Evenings are my nemesis again, I eat fine all day but too much for dinner, and worse, snacking after...

Had a great weekend, at least there was good with the bad - enjoyed good weather, civic activities, and when I do fall off the tracks, it isn't absentmindedly - I do savor and enjoy the meal.

But if I'm not exercising an hour a day, the rest of my routine falls apart and I start going up - 199 this morning, I think that is up 2 more. Just tired of getting up at 4am to ride - and an hour in the pool in the evening is annoying to everyone else.

If there is something fun I don't have a problem at all - even in 100degree heat Saturday we walked all around downtown and the ballpark for a few hours taking in the changes that seem to happen every few months.

Next week is Tahoe family reunion, then on to San Diego the week after for grandkids and a day cruise on my sons Navy destroyer! Now THAT will be a cruise!

Good luck all - enjoy yourselves, your summer, your families...just enjoy what you have - as far as I'm concerned - I still have it pretty darn good and am thankful for so much each and every day.

Good Morning,

Belle, great poem.

I lost the 2 lbs. I gained last week. Yippee.....

Wishing everyone a good week.

Diana

I am down 0.8 of a pound - but still up from the beginning of June.

Started looking in my clothes closet for ideas for the cruise coming up in a month --- size 8 & size 10 do not fit at all :eek: .. some 12's don't fit either ... life is always so interesting ... wish I could just maintain weight instead of this roller coaster -- oh well, helps to whine, but no one to blame!!! :rolleyes:

Hope everyone has/had a good week. Jan

HI all!

Belle ~ nice ditty! Glad it didn't go poof like the last one!;)

shootr ~ I have the same problem, can eat okay all day then go wild at night eating whatever I fancy.:o

Jan & Diana ~ WTG losing some more weight!:D

I stayed the same this week which is amazing as I had some nice meals out.

DD & I had a nice weekend at a B&B with a lovely 4 course meal included but we did quite a bit of exploring so put over 11,000 steps on my pedometer.

She gave me her old Fitbit to try out but I haven't been able to sync it yet.

Hope all have a good week! One of these days I'm going to have to get serious as I'm almost back to my all time high again!:(

~ Jo ~ :)

Thanks for the poem, Belle.

Jan and Diana, congrats on the weight loss.

Jo, staying the same is always good.

shootr, have fun at your family reunion and enjoy your day cruise.

I am down .08lbs. I leave on Saturday to pick up my granddaughter for our cruise. I will be back in two weeks and hopefully will not have gained too much.

Rose

shootr...Night eating is a problem here too.

Plus it is a surprise that you can work alone

exercise in your hot weather. Have fun on

your trips and "cruise"!

Diana...Great you got the 2lbs that fast. Water

weight. Are you use to having the husband home

everyday?

Jan...A loss is a loss as they say..which is good

but we want more especially when we've been good.

Still have a month till your cruise.

Jo...I think it's always nice when we go away and

eat more and come home the same. No gains. Congrats

on all the walking. See it worked.

Rose...You had a lose before your cruise..that's good.

Just you and your granddaughter on the cruise?

Sat. will be here before you know it. All packed?

Have a good time.

Something is happening..I had a loss and the roof

didn't fall in. LOL I'll take it with a smile and hope

it's still there tomorrow!

Hi again!

Rose ~ have a great cruise with your GD! You'll both have a great time on Freedom, love that ship!

Belle ~ wtg with your loss!

~ Jo ~ :)

Lost 2 lbs.

Rosa, have a great cruise!

Hi Belle, I'm getting used to hubby and I being together. It's been nice going out for lunch, etc. I'm trying to be careful food wise.......

A little sad today.

Today is/was my husbands birthday

so thinking of him last night and today

more than I usually do.

Going out to dinner with son and daughter

tonight to remember him.

It's been only four months since he died

I know it will get better but now I miss him

so much.

Thanks for listening I needed to express my

sadness today.

Belle - lots of hugs to you today. I hope that you have a wonderful time with your daughter and son tonight ... and that you get to share some great memories. I am so sorry. Jan

Hi Belle, I'm so very sorry to read about the loss of your husband, this has to be so hard for you especially today.

Its serendipity that I came on CC today and thought of you. I actually came looking to see if you still did your thread and lovely poems. What a joy to find you here, I just wish it was better circumstances for you.

So glad you and your children will be going out together tonight.

{{hugs}}

Belle....I too just came on here to check on you! I have been thinking a lot about you and just have not had time to check out all of the threads I would like to. I probably have avoided this forum also since I have been bad, bad, bad! Bad eating and no exercise!!!! However, I have had you on my mind and decided to "pop in" tonight and check on you. So glad I did! Sending hugs and prayers your way. I am so sorry you are sad and experiencing this. I hope you had a great time with son and daughter and were able to enjoy your time with them sharing great memories!

Belle,

Sending lots of hugs your way. Loss is so difficult. I'm glad you were able to spend time with your son and daughter.

Take care, Diana

Jan..Shootr..Cruise42..Dianne..Jo.. Ski..Diana

Your are the Best....I felt all your hugs and Good Thoughts.

Had a nice dinner with my son and daughter,

We went to a Mexican place he/we like. Just had a few sad

moments. Our favorite waitress was there, she knew he passed

but told her his birthday today (both had tears).

Then when leaving the owner came in and was looking for him

and had to tell him he died and was his birthday. More tears.

He was so sorry. But all in all it was a day to remember him.

It went fine.

Dianne so good to see you again. It is a wonder how things happen.

Wish i/we would see you more often.

Ski please come back know matter how your doing. Still doing the poems.

So come back.

Thank you again for everything these four months that I needed you! XO

I completely forgot to stop by last week and report my weight loss for the week....and it was 3.5 lbs!!! How in the world do you forget to post that? LOL! I hope everyone is having a great week and losing those unwanted pounds and inches! :)
