“Listen closely... the eternal hush of silence goes on and on throughout all this, and has been going on, and will go on and on. This is because the world is nothing but a dream and is just thought of and the everlasting eternity pays no attention to it.” ― Jack Kerouac

Calories under 1100 per day: M-915 T-984 W-770 T-707
Water 8 glasses per day: Y, Y, Y, Y
Exercise 8K per week: T-2K T-2.5
Exercise upper body: M-Y W-Y T-Y
Today was a very active day. I started out walking 2.5K on the treadmill. Then I got some house work done before going to help with the quilt photography again. I was hoisting quilts on rods with pulley and ropes for 3 hours. Now I am tired and will go to bed soon. I hope that every one had a great day.[

Libby, great job on the weight loss!I need to start doing a lot more walking and moving on the treadmill. It seems with work and the kids activities, I make excuses to do walk only a little while.

I just got off the treadmill and I am dripping wet from sweat. It is so much easier to do with a distraction. I put an Indiana Jones movie in the dvd player and was watching it while I walked 2.5k for 34 min. Make it a habit when you get out of bed to put your running shoes and walking clothes on.
The rest of the day goes so much better when I get my exercise done first thing. I have exercised every day so far this month.
and I am nothing if not consistent. We can do this.

Libby, Renewed Soul, Donna and all the other successful people - you are awesome!
How do you manage to stay so low with calories?! What's your typical menu?
If I don't put around 2,000 calories in my mouth, I am ready to gnaw my limbs off!
