Well I hope that I do better with July then I did with June I got no where. I'm sure now that is has nothing to do with my walking it has to be my food intake. I think that by the looks of things that I have to cut about 300 calories a day off my eating. It sounds like alot but I don't think it will be. I could cut out about 75 off of each meal and the rest off of any snacks that I end up having our cut out one snack and replace it with more water?
This month is also my birthday maybe I should really give myself a birthday gift and take a few more pounds off and maybe that will get me going again to finish this off? Good luck to everyone this month. I will be gone for 2 weeks on holidays from the 12th to the 25th. I made up charts to take with me to keep track of what I should eat while I'm gone.KIM

Well I don't feel very good about myself these days. I'm not sure why? I can't wait until I go on holidays, maybe that will change my tune? I hope so. I'm having company for dinner tomorrow night. I'm looking forward to it. We have not had this company since Christmas. She is my boss but I like to see her also out of the office. I hate talking about office work when I have company.
You know I just think I'm due for a holiday. We are going out east for 2 weeks as you can tell by my charts. I've got my charts ready to take with me.

Hi everyone. I found my food mover. I thought that I had left it ine one of the hotels on oour Disnery trip 1 1/2 years ago. I got out one of the siut cases that we had used and I was taking all the stuff out of the pockets to see what was in them and there it was. So tomorrow I'm going to start to use it again.
We go out east come Sat July 12th. I have to walk home from work tomorrow, Hubby's truck broke down when he was coming home on Friday and I had to go pick him up. He has to take me to work tomorrow but I have to walk home. It will probably take me 1/2 and hour but that is ok. I have to get back into my 2 walks a day anyway so this will be a jump start. KIM

Thanks P. Hope all of you do well while I'm gone. I do a split shift on Friday and then I don't have to go back until the day before my birthday the 28th.
I did 4 3/4 miles so far today. I had to walk home from work because hubby had to use mine to go to work. He droped me off and I walked home. I clocked it it is 2 miles away from my house. Not to bad at all. The 1st 1/4 of it was up hill though. I was glad the rest was up and down. Then I took the dog for a walk and when I got back I did my own. I'll probably done one more after dinner if it dones not rain. I took the Umb with me just in case though.
My boss already told me she is going to miss me. We come back on the 24th. Her Birthday is the 25th. If we are not doing anything then I'll probably drope in and give her her gift and get the scoop on what went on while I was gone. I'm sure she will have alot to tell. KIM

Good morning everyone. Hope all is well. I woke up this morning thinking a bit better about myself. I've already been for 2 walks today. It is to rain this afternoon and it looks like it will. I had my hair curled when I left and it was flat when I got back. God knows what people thought when they saw the hair. They probably thought that I did not even have it curled yet.
I'm back into the water and I'm saying no more oftern to the bad foods. This month is my birthday and I'm going to try very hard and start to lose again. I don't care how much as long as I see the scale go down. I won't be near a scale while I'm gone on holidays for the 2 weeks. I'm going to weigh in on Friday. That will be my last weigh in until be get back. We get home on the 24th but I will weigh in on the 25th in the morning.
I'm taking my food mover with me while we are gone. I think it will help me think twice about getting into the bad foods. For the 1st 6 days we will be at a cottage so I can control all of my eating in that way but I'll have to be careful after that. I won't have any desserts while I'm gone. When we get back it is my Birthday on the Tuesday just in case they buy me a cupcake or something like that I want to be able to have one.
Have a great day everyone. KIM

Well I don't know if I will have time to come here tomorrow or not. I've got the ironing to finish and then I have to pack and then see if the kids packed ok before we go. I wish everyone here a very good 2 weeks and I myself will have 2 weeks to get my life and family back in the swing. Even though I think the kids are dreading being with us old folks for the 2 weeks I'm sure we will end up having a great time. I'm going to watch myself more closely with my food choices while I'm gone. And I did find my food mover the other day so I'm going to keep it with me in the purse. Good luck to everyone while I'm gone. I'll be back on the 24th or 25th. KIM I'm leaving at 152/164/140

Well a big hello to everyone. I'm back. I had a great time. I wrote about the trip in my walking journal. I'll weigh in tomorrow. I don't know how I did . I did not eat to badly. Had ice cream a few times. Did not keep up with my water the 2nd week. I only had fries once on the trip. I tried to have soups, salads and chili and spagetti more overn then anything else. We had breakfast in the hotel rooms out of the coolers and we usually had lunch out of the cooler also. Dinner was always out.
Wish me luck tomorrow. KIM I hope all was well while I was gone.

Well I guess the scale lied to me on my first day back. I got on the scale today and it said 154? I guess I did not do well on my holiday afterall?
Now I feel lost? I don't know how to start all over again. I don't want to keep going back up but it looks that way? I hate cutting back alot because I get hungry and thenI cheat?KIM

Well I did not end up having a good Julu or Birthday. The day before my birthday I ended up having a bad fall on my way home from work. I've been off for about a week now. I have to go back to work on Tuesday. I don't have all my strength yet. I won't be going for my walks for at leadt another 2 weeks. So I probably won't meet my goal. I'm 1 mile short of my 300 mile goal. I can't wait to get that one checked off. Anyway that was my july KIM
