    [Dragging her voluptuous butt reluctantly before Queen Cleo, LIR says:]

    Menu: 2 eggs scrambled, 4 bfst sausages
    beef & cheese on a flax bun, veggies & dressing for dipping
    zuccini lasagne and green beans

    Water: 3 or so litres

    Exercise: 30 minute brisk walk (practically running) through the rain

    Is that good enough my liege? (bowing before her Cleo-ness)

          Hi Cleo,
          Okay this is yesterdays...

          1. Menu was great:
          b: 2 scrambled eggs & ground sausage
          l: 1 cup homemade turkey chili (a little concerned about the tomato content, but not too bad)
          1/2 squash and ranch dressing
          1 bite of honey nut cream cheese
          d: leftover mexican dip with 1/2 zucinni (again made with tomato's) Hmm, do I need a slap on that? <sigh>
          2 slices pastrami & swiss

          2. Doing very well on my water! 100 ounces.

          3. Exercise, nope didn't comply, but you said 150 minutes a week, so I last night wasn't the night. Tonight, yes!
          I am starting to use the stairs at work instead of the elevator. I am on the third floor (big stairs) so that helps, plus I do feel the thigh burn by the end of the day.
          149.8/no weigh/ 119



          1st goal: 139 (earlier weight)
          what the rungs mean to me:
          rung 1 - more veggies
          rung 2 - dairy (some milk in coffee)
          rung 3 - seeds, nuts (mostly sprinkled on salads)
          rung 4 - berries, melon
          rung 5 - wine -
          rung 6 - beans, hummus
          rung 7 - other fruits
          rung 8 - carrots/ potatoes (nah, prolly not)
          rung 9 - whole grains (fresh Dutch breads...)
          Major Goal - 128 lbs/ healthy range
          (on to pre-maintenance)

            Yesterday's menu:

            dinner: 1 chicken thigh, fried, 1 cup green beans

            late night snack: 1 oz cheedar cheese, microwaved until crisp

            water, water everywhere!

            One 30 minute walk -- four 10 minute brisk walks (during breaks at work)

                Re: Challenge Check in Tuesday.

                Thanks, Cleo. Can you clarify something for me? When you say 30 minutes of exercise a day, can I do three ten minute sessions? I work in a big, big building and if I take the stairs down and walk around the building and back up the stairs, that is about 10 minutes?!

                    I'm not bowing out of the challenge, but I'll continue on the century club one.. I just realized I don't want to post the same thing in both threads every day

                      1. No. falling. off. plan.

                      I did not lick anything. I am waiting until it get cold later this week and doing one of those pipes in a parking lot like in "A Chirstmas Story"

                      2. Drinking adequate water.

                      One gallon downed yesterday

                      3. Exercising at least 150 minutes a week.

                      Cortisone shots tomorrow. I don't know if I mentioned it but I fell really hard this week and am sort of immobilized for the time being. I shoudl be able to make up for it later this week. I PROMISE (myself!)


                      4. Checking into ADBB at least three times a week for accountability and to check in.
                      Yowza Boss!

                      5. Be Honest and Accountable

                      I am being good, but I feel a little sad about my injury. It sucks

                        Just posting a message right behind Josh Groban's luciousness is enough for me to sweat off a pound or two!!

                        Seriously...this morning was bacon & eggs and black coffee w/heavy cream (no splenda). 80 oz of water already down. Right now I'm eating a tuna salad. No clue what dinner will be. It was cold and raining this morning, so I drug my butt up and down my hall stairs (15 steps) about 3 times, which really doesn't amount to much time-wise, but it got the heart pumping. Hopefully, the weather will make a turn for the better to walk tonight, otherwise, more stairs.
