Well, ladies, we have three more days:) The no salt thing has been SOOOOO easy for me. I didn't think it would, as I'm a cracker fiend, but I've been having a few unsalted whole wheat sesame mini breadsticks and they seem to work okay. I think if I ate a chip now, the salt would send me into a tailspin!

The sugar thing, however, has not been so good. Even though I wasn't doing "no sugar" this month, I find myself falling back into old habits with cookies and such.

The water thing has been really very good. There were a couple of days I didn't get the whole 64 oz in, but that was mostly because I kind of forgot and by the time I remember, it was too late to guzzle all that water, or I would have been up all night!

Okay, now that I've written a book, it's over to you! How is everyone?
 
Hi shelley,

sweets-check
salt- Those darn pringles!
water- still a struggle

Water has been a real pain for me this month. and had a bit of problem with salt. Sugar has been pretty good. Can't wait to start the aug. sweets challenge. I will probably to to continue my water intake.


Have a good day!

Got it all out of my system yesterday with the chocolate/sweets things. Don't see a problem today. Always have plenty of water though this morning I am guzzling more than usual. All that Italian food last evening with all that cheese... ummm about 10,000 gms. of salt probably!!! I am sooo thirsty this morning.
 
Doing well.

water - check
no added salt - check
portion control - check

I feel like I should reward myself with something for doing pretty well this month. We ALL should. Any ideas?

DH baked banana bread. And I ate some. Last night. And this morning. :p

Well, at least I drank plenty of water and didn't have any salty snacks. I think this month has shown me how incredibly addictive sugar really is. We can give up salty things without much trouble at all. But sweets are a whole other ballgame. *sigh*
 
This month I also did well with the no salt and water and only so so with the no sweets. Even though I chose fat free goodies when I ate the sweets they are still sugary and therefore not good. I am looking forward to the August challenge as I vow to do better!

Hi Ladies,

So far the day is going well, except for the water.
I don't know why it's so hard lately to get this water down.
During the winter months I have no problem. Maybe since it's so dry then...I don't know. (I'm not a rocket scientist ya know.;-) )

Have a great day all!

Yeah! Hockey is back!!!

Hi Guys.

Doing good here today. No salty snacks, no sweets, (except for a few lucky charms) and drinking my water.

I have a new goal for August. When the boys start school in Sept. I'm going to work out with someone 2 days a week. So I'll need to get a few decent workout outfits and get in decent shape before I start.(I know that's goofy) So hopefully the Aug. 04 rotation will do me good. And I guess I'll do no sweets and eat REALLY clean for August. This is important to me guys. I'm gonna need your support. It's crunch time! :7
I can feel my OCD creeping up on me now! LOL!

So kali do you mean a trainer 2 days a week? Sounds like you have some good goals going there and of course as always we will be here to cheer you on! By the way I looked at your pictures and you have a lovely family. Also I noticed you have very nice legs with definition going on there! Best of luck to you!

I don't deserve a reward. I cheated way too much this month. If I'm successful in August I'll get something for myself.

So far today

water - I still have the rest of the day to check this one
salt - check
sugar - um I don't think so x( (still PMSing)

Hi Terri and thank you for your kind words. No not a trainer. Just a friend who I want to look good in front of. It's kind of like "clean your house before the maid comes" type of situation.

That is too funny! I have so many friends who do that. They freak out the day before trying to tidy up so they're not embarassed. Not me tho. I could only dream about that.
I know I'm corny. I can't help it tho.:7
