This is our September Journals. Let’s not only update each other, but use this thread to motivate and spread knowledge that will be helpful in our weight loss journeys. Let us know what you are doing that is working (or not working) so we can help each other.

Personal Journaling/Tracking
If you use a personal journal or online trackers, be sure you are tracking your daily goals and meal plans. The more you take the time to track, the better your chances of losing weight will be in September.
Well, the vacation is over.. Worst one yet. Coastal flooding grounded us all but for a couple hours the first day. We did go to the aquarium the second day but our dolphin watching tour was cancelled obviously. It poured down the entire time we were there minus those first few hours so bad that the streets flooded and literally grounded us in our room.. Second night our room flooded so we had to move rooms. One of the elevators flooded. Ladies this was a Hampton Inn so nicer hotel the maintenace man said it's a really old building. I never would have guessed that!Yesterday we woke up to 59 temps and rain all day so we decided to jus…
Happy Thirst-Day! Get your drink on! Enjoy a favorite beverage today.
Pretty much the same old stuff today. Work will be busy. Have a work dinner tonight for another co-worker who is leaving our department. She finished her engineering degree and got promoted to the engineering lab. Getting my "Taco Tuesday" today. Going to one of my favorite mexican places. Might be a Mango Margarita in my future.
Working on my meal plans today and grocery orders. Won't be much time after dinner to get much done. Just hoping to get a decent night's sleep. I've been very hit or miss lately with nightly cramps.
Well, better get at it. Enjoy your day ladies! Make today count!
Watched my sick kiddos yesterday and today...Brody was home both days because he has croup (his cough sounds like a bark), and Logan has a runny nose. At the end of the day he started the cough too. Got to love school germs! We had relaxing days, so puzzles, Blippi and Minecraft has been it! I brought some gummy bears and we stood one up in their belly button...we called them Beary buttons! LOL. I'll post that silly picture!
Tomorrow I'll be home catching up with housework and ordering groceries. It's raining right now from some monsoonal moisture and our temps during the day are 85 and 72 at night. No fall here! LOL
I'm hoping to push a couple…
I'm awake.....
Happy Wednesday ladies! Halfway to the weekend!! Another busy work day ahead for me. My MIL is also here today. At least we are planning a quiet evening.
Did lab work yesterday. Meet with my kidney doc next week. Also rechecked my thyroid for my reg. doc and got word this morning that the meds are working and my thyroid levels improved and are close to normal. Good news there. Don't have to recheck until January.
Not much else on my end. Just doing my best with stacking habits and my eating plan. Always room for improvement there. Enjoy your hump day ladies. Make today a good one!
Good afternoon!. This day is flying by. Got busy at work and haven't had time to take a breather. Ran over my lunch hour to get some lab work done for my kidney doc and my regular doc about my thyroid. Going to be a busy evening getting ready for MIL to come over again tomorrow. Not sure what they are working on this week.
Going to make some chicken noodle soup for dinner tonight and for lunch tomorrow. A small storm passed by last night so we are starting the cool down. Will be in the 70's by the weekend. Been doing my walk every day, or at least at night when it is cooler. Sticking to my …
