NOTE: the extra walking is going well except that the early evening crowd is out there for socializing NOT exercising and I'm about to get rude. We've also got to figure out the best time --you know AFTER the people go home but BEFORE dark. Regardless, the amount of miles covered and the number of hours increased and I do like that!
Remember y'all: One day at a time!
Woohoo....you are doing great!
ReplyDeleteYou are doing great on all your challenges! Doing better than I, but that's another story! LOL Don't forget to link up your post.
ReplyDeleteYou are SO on target with your plan! 2 pounds a week is a great goal. So I'm thinking that I could lose 6 pounds by Thanksgiving? Why do those holidays fill me with dread when it comes to the social eating thing!
ReplyDeleteYou rock!
ReplyDeleteGood going! Healthy loss! One day at a time.
ReplyDeleteGood going!
ReplyDeleteWe don't have tests after we get our licenses here either (unless you're banned from driving for doing something bad and have to retake it after), I'm trying to get my license. We don't have anything like driver's ed/a school programme here, so if you want to drive you learn it yourself. I never wanted to, but I've gotten to the point where I need to now, so when I say 'driving test' it is my license I'm talking about.
Keep at it Pam!! Way to go! Can't wait to hear about the gluten free Thanksgiving feast! :)

Bluezy- Thanks! Yep, healthy is what I'm going for!
TC- Wow, I would have gone NUTS without my license! I had things to do and places to go---away from my parents. LOL
Betty- I've started keeping my ear buds in too! Seriously, I'm not even dressed like I'm out there to talk! LOL
Jessica- Thanks! I hope it turns out good! I'm a little nervous about the dressing.
You are doing marvellously, Eve! As steadily as you are losing mass and toning up, so I'm gaining and turning into a jelly. I takes such self discipline and determination and I admire you hugely for sticking to your programme and goals!
ReplyDeleteWow - you're doing a great job Pam! Keep up the good work! Enjoy your Day! Hugs x

ReplyDeleteSelf discipline is difficult but is typically the most rewarding.
