You're doing great Nicky!! Keep up the good work. I hope your knee is feeling better.

My knee is feeling much better - thanks!
Our company has 4 offices - I in Rockford IL, one in Freeport IL, one in Madison WI, and one in Milwaukee WI. Our team has 1-2 employees in each office. Once a month we get together in one of the offices for a workday. yesterday was this workday. I haven't seen 3 of the people since last month and it was fun seeing their reactions at the weight I have lost.

I went shopping in my closet and found pants to actually fit me instead of being way to big. I had gotta so use to pants that were too big that today the pants that actually fit (maybe they are a little tight) make me feel fat. Hopefully that will help me work harder. I am hoping for a 3 pound loss for this weel and to lose 15 pounds during the month of July. That would put my total for the contest at 40 pounds. I would be thrilled with that.
After work today I am going to buy some primer and paint and other supplies. I am painting our livingroom, diningroom and hallway this weekend. I have to get it all done this weekend cause I have to have the house back in order for our big annual 4th of July party.
It's storming here

icky!! I'll have to walk away the pounds tonight instead of on the walking path... that's ok.
Hope everyone is doing well!

Nicky I know what you mean about clothes. Its been great to put away my fat guy trousers and get out the smaller ones. Keep up the good work

Today begins painting day. Wanna help??!!! I'm off in a few minutes to go buy primer and paint.. just checking a paint calculator at Homedepot.com to see how much I should buy. 8 gallons Yikes!
Hope you all have a great day!
I'm sure I'll check in later when I'm tired of paint

Have fun painting, I'm sure you'll get a great arm workout!

I agree with Missy. Just think about how much fun you could have toting around the paint cans! If they are empty, fill them with water and haul them around. Cheap weights!! You could do arm curls, lawn mowers (I forget the name), make a barbell and do squats, the list is endless....!

Keep up the great work!

Wow what a great arm and leg workout. Finally finished painting and getting the chair rail back up and moving furniture back after 11:30 last night. My arms were sore plus my legs got a workout by stepping on my tippy toes to reach as high as I could and then squatting to do lower parts.
Glad it's done!! looks nice. it's actually quite shocking to look at.
our old colors were a dark orange about the chair rail and a orange red below the chair rail. The color it is now is a really really light beige. We want to sell our place in a year or 2 and we figured it will sell better with a neutral color and not the oranges.
I am soooooooooooooooo tired today! I am having a hard time keeping my eyes open at my desk. This is going to be a long day. I need a nap.

Good to hear that you got all your painting finished. I always tell myself that if my muscles are sore..it means it's working

How goes the house redecorating? There is nothing like a fresh coat and new color of paint to make you feel like you just added a new room to the house. Very exciting! Hope your muscles are not aching from all the "Wax on...Wax off..." How goes the diet? Keep us informed!
