Hot day, but what else is new? Was well into the 80's when I went out walking this morning and as of 1PM, we've got 95. Dogs only got a mini-stroll of .8 miles, but I sweated my way through 3.4 miles and then went into the pool (now a fairly comfy 84 degrees - all natural heat).
Last night's dinner out was wonderful!! It was a casual restaurant and I happily wore some clothes from my stash of smaller things, including 1 of my 2 "fish" tops. Ages ago, I saw these 2 tops and fell in love with the fish on the front. One top is a peachy-pink, the other white. Still love these shirts and am thrilled to be able to wear them again.
As for food, I had a fresh catch of swordfish medallions broiled on a skewer, served with double veggies....green beans, carrots, squash, pearl onions, etc. The flavor was really great and I enjoyed every last bite! I skipped all the saucy entrees and also passed on the hush puppies. I substituted extra veggies for the rice and the waiter took it in stride.
One of the people there has had her husband's assignments in some of the same places as my DH, so she's seen me at a larger size. We hadn't seen each other for several months and when she saw me, her mouth dropped and she said, "You look fantastic!" YAY!!!!!
And....just for today....no nut butters of any kind and no peanuts. Atkins bar is OK. We'll just take this one day at a time.

Sandy - Congrats on completing that grueling walk. I bet you really do look great! And I don't think there will be any slowing you down now. Who needs peanut butter after sword fish?

Sandy that is awesome....I did the same thing this morning. When we used to go to Florida all the time, I would buy Fresh Produce and Peppermint Bay brand clothing. I love them. Well, I outgrew them years ago, and last week I got into my "smaller" stash and dug out all the clothes that haven't seen the light of day in a while. One of them is a dress that is white with fish on it. I got it on today!!! It is still a bit tight across the chest area, but I got it on! I was so excited and I figure if I can lose another 7 pounds it will probably be about right, so that is what I am aiming for by Aug 29. Like you, my goal may be a bit ambitious, but I'm betting we can do it. The weather here is identical to yours. At 2 pm it is 98 by my thermometer and it is in the shade. The humidity is so thick you could cut it with a knife. I plan to hit the pool for a few hours here in a bit (it is also an all nautral 84), then take my walk, then hit it again when I get back! You are doing so well, and I am so happy for you...it is awesome when someone says Oh, my gosh you look great. I had someone do that to me last week, and it made my day! Also inspired me to keep on going. I have a bit to go before I get to where you are..about 20 pounds, but I am as determined as you. You inspire me!!!! Hugs and have an awesome weekend!

Sandy - I saw you and Paula on the August 29th Challenge and you shamed me into trying.

Hey Buffy. I saw Stef on that challenge and decided I needed a few official challenges, along with the informal "Bren" challenge, to keep me focused. That's the new mantra....Focus, focus, focus!!! Trying to focus on one day at a time, one choice at a time (esp. with those nut butters!!!).

Stef, aren't compliments great? So amazing you have a "fish" item of clothing too! Just like you took a photo of you in shorts a while back, you'll have to snap a new photo when you've got that dress fitting the way you want it to. Glad to hear you can use your pool now! And I bet you're glad too with that weather you're having. There's nothing like a refreshing dip when you're overheated. Let's be sure we keep up on our water this weekend, right?
