I woke up to thunder and lightening this morning at 430am.
I hope we get enough rain. There has been no rain for quite some time and the farmers fields are very dry. It smells and feels good outside when it's like this. I don't mind storms at all and find some comfort in them. We get more rain later in the week. The rain will push this heat out of NW Ohio. Yesterday we broke a heat record of 96! Hope we don't do that again anytime soon. Normally I hate the heat but this year so far I'm doing ok...

For the life of me I cannot seem to get myself under 260. I joined CK in early April and have only lost 10 lbs. I know...better than gaining 10. My weight on the scale swings 4 lbs. on any given day. And whats more I have not been disciplined. Monday through Friday I do great for breakfast and lunch. It goes down hill for me after that. I am still drinking too much alcohol also.

For the first time we told him no. That hurt really bad to tell...Get back on track!

Wow. I consistantly keep blowing it for myself. I put on three pounds since last Monday. I am just going to have to buckle down and stay in that calorie target and keep walking. I always think at the time, "it's okay to eat all the things I made for this cookout. Or it's okay to just splurge on a certain meal when we eat out." No......it's not okay. Maybe if it's once in a great while, but I am doing it a few times a week. I was baaaad this weekend when I made everyones favorites for a...Now I know

If you own a treadmill remember the warning on the paper work about NOT walking on it barefoot? I always remembered it yet I did it any way.
I thought it was in case of getting your toe nicked in the belt or some such thing. I found you can also get one one hell of a painful and large blister on the bottom of your left foot! My Lord in Heaven it huuurrrrrts. I wasn't too bad a day or so after just sore. On Saturday morning I did my three mile walk. Upon getting out of my car after the drive ho...
