Going to try the Toned Arms list, can't do Push Ups, if I get down on the floor, it takes an Act of Congress to get me back up, but the rest? Hey, even an Old Chick like me can do That! I wonder if a Standing up PushUp would work , using a Wall , to and then Push Away? Otherwise, can't hurt and might just work, all I got to spend is my Time. Yeah, the Price is Right and believe I'm ending the month better than I Started, so I count it Successful.

Day 25. I haven’t decided if I’m going to the gym today. If I can persuade my youngest to go play tennis I’d rather do that. It’s going to be a beautiful day here, I prefer getting my exercise outdoors on days like this.

My why. I felt so uncomfortable, uneasy and shame when I was overweight. I stopped participating in the world around me. I’m an active participant now. I lost my why for awhile and wanted it back.

B-Side Question: Any weekend plans?

Creating an August EASY challenge, any interest? Very low key activity but tons of fun/ motivation...

Yay or Nay?

I'd say YAY for sure. This has been such a nice way to see things about people, places and things. It has been very encouraging to read even on days where I missed participating.

I’m in, I like checking in. I loved the picture element even if I didn’t always post. It made me look around and be more aware of my surroundings.

28. Night. Ready to make my move...

Hi, So sorry I haven't been checking in as much. It's been a crazy busy month but all in a good way. So, I've been terrible about the arms, I gave up somewhere along the way. I've started going home at lunch for the puppy and that was my hour to check in and catch up with daily activities like arm exercises. But, I have to say, I've been good about getting to the gym and I've made decent progress for the month. Nearly 8 lbs as of today which is a shade better than the past two months. I'm excited and I can see Onederland ahead! Tomorrow I go for my belated six month follow up. Today, I did a nuclear stress test and they were impressed at my improvement from the one three years ago.

All in all, I think a good month. I have enjoyed everyone's posts and pictures as they arrived in my email. And, yes! I will post puppy pictures soon! I'm looking forward to a more relaxing and quiet weekend this week. If I don't stop back here, I'll see everyone in August!

Honestly, I love salads with a verrrrry vineagrette-y dressing.

Sashimi, grilled steaks and cashews are up there too ?

Days 25-29

• Sleek Arms Challenge: 5 days worth of this challenge catch-up done!!!
• Toned Arms Challenge: Only 2 missed days/sets worth of this challenge done, um, those 95 total up and downs in the Sleek Arms Challenge killed me.
• ❌ Toned Arms Challenge: I'm going to defer 3 sets/days of these to tomorrow (or later today?). My arms are done at the moment.
• BTW, am pretty proud of myself as for the first time ever, I USED THE HOTEL GYM TO WORK OUT during a vacation. Pre-wls, hotel gyms were basically my source for a quick bottle of water, or cold towel, lol.
