You have until 2pm NST/PST Tuesday, which will probably be Wednesday for you. Just get it in within the next 24 hours and you'll be good.

Yeah, I'll  be getting them in Midnight within 1-2 hours before or after xD

[Rocket]

Pretty much as long as I receive them before I wake up and get to work on Wednesday you'll be fine

BURMP!

 

Just went for a 2.5mile bike ride! Was hoping for 3 miles but my allergies got the best of me, and I had to wheeze back home.

 

So far yesterday and today have been good days for me! Eating clean, drinking lots of water.

Sending my weigh in tomorrow morning.  I'm mentally preparing myself for it to be a gain, but because I lost so much weight last week it's probably an OK thing to bounce back a little.

I pulled 100 sq ft of weeds today.

i was surprised and only gained 1 pound, shocked in a good way I thought it would be a lot more.

At this point tonight I'm up 4 pounds (oh my GOD), but I weigh myself in the mornings so I'll probably be a bit lower by the time I wake up.

All this picture taking has made me hyper-aware of how crooked my big toes are.

I can't stand things on my feet. I'd run around like a naked hippie every day if I could.

[Rocket]

I just said this in PM but I really REALLY hate feet, like idc if they are the prettiest feet in the world, feet gross me out.

 

And I didn't realize until after I started getting submissions that I would be seeing feet every week D:

I just read an article someone posted on FB and thought I would share it with everyone here.

(I am not putting this in spoilers because I want everyone to read this)

 

Regarding Weight Loss

 

"I am so convinced that it is a journey and not a destination. I cannot tell you how many people have said to me, “Well, I lost 85 pound and I have put it all back on.” All this tells me is that they did go on a diet, and sooner or later it all came back as they went back to their old eating habits. "

 

I know that it is a change of lifestyle and it is not wrapped up in a diet or a magic pill.

 

1. I eat 1,600 to 1,800 calories a day, broken down into three meals and three snacks. Check with your health specialist first for your optimal calorie intake for weight loss. For a regular fuel injection, eat a meal or a snack every two to three hours.

 

2. Eat eight servings of fruits and vegetables daily. A serving of fruits or vegetables varies from a half cup to one cup.

 

3. Limit bread to two servings per day, and choose complex carbohydrates from whole grains, as opposed to refined foods such as sugar and white flour.

 

4. Consume two tablespoons of healthy oil, such as olive oil or oils found in nuts or vegetables each day. Most oils I use come from meats, fish, salad dressings, and nuts.

 

5. Exercise thirty minutes to one hour a day, six days a week. I always take off one day to rest. Start gradually and work up. Be sure to consult your doctor before starting any exercise program. My program includes three strength-training workouts per week and water aerobics or swimming twice a week. I wear a pedometer and strive to take 10,000 steps a day. I bike ride for fun when the weather is good. If I bike, I decrease my walking. Remember, I have worked up to this regimen over several years.

 

6. Control stress through planning and the ability to say, “No, I will not be able to do that right now.” Say no to requests you do not have time for so you can say yes to your health, weight, and happiness.

 

7. Get a full night’s rest, about seven to eight hours of sleep. I usually go to bed early enough that I can wake up without an alarm.

 

8. Drink eight cups of water (8 ounces each) daily.

 

9. Plan and prep your meals. When meats and vegetables are pre-prepped, it’s faster and easier to cook a healthy meal. Have every family member share duties during meal preparations.

 

10. Control portions. Premeasure food items into proper portions so you will be less tempted to overeat. By weighing and packaging foods ahead of time, you can better control your serving size. When I fail to do this step, I usuallyget tripped up and end up eating too much.

 

11. Make yourself accountable. Identify your goals in weekly time periods, and write down the steps it will take to accomplish them. Three-month goals let you set your sights a little bit further out. Find someone you trust to check in withonce a week to hold you accountable. Keep a daily food and exercise diary. This will help you know whether you are following your program. Without writing these things down, it is easy to lose track, often resulting in weight gain.

 

12. Enjoy the journey and never, ever give up. You can do it.

 

Remember it did NOT come on over night and it is a JOURNEY of leaning new skills.

Success on the journey!!!

I did a 10 mile run straight after work because the Boy is demanding we get Dominos tonight and I am powerless to stop him.

[Boggart]

I hope you guys are making better progress than me. I said I would start at about April 15 (last exam) but I've only worked out five times since then.

 

I make excuses like me being tired after a 10 hour shift, but at the same time I don't work till 11 AM so I really have no excuse to not work out. I'm just lazy.
