4th of July this Sunday. Will be the first time in my entire life I didn't see fireworks with family on the night. I've got the fireworks, but don't want to risk lighting them with Cassie still trying to heal. Afraid she'd get spooked and injure the leg again. It's going to be a weird one. Almost like the first Christmas away from home.

Walking is brilliant exercise Dawn (I would say that, wouldn't I?) but you have to step it out and get your heart rate up.
Get yourself a heart rate monitor - your heart rate needs to be between 60 & 80% of maximum to burn fat. I believe the your maximum heart rate is 220 - <your age> pulses per minute.
Keep it there for an hour a day, limit yourself to about 1500 cals and watch the weight drop off.

This is one time when I wouldn't mind adding a few years to the age.

Yeah, I just love my chicken/fish and salad dinner every night
Post it, I could do with some inspiration
[ ] You need to diet bold one.
I'm currently on a diet atm. GG @ DTD this weekend.
thanks mate.
I'm just off the carbs for a month or so and doing portion control, going to the gym 3-4 times a week obv works but the moobs and belly are hard to shift
I can't comment on belly as I'm the heaviest I've ever been atm and feel proper horrible.
However, do some chest stuff, bench pressing, light flies etc, will turn your moobs into muscle.
Doing loads of pec excerises..the problem is that I now have a very firm A-cup
the pecs are pushing the fat out more than toning it all up....very not good.
As has been mentioned elsewhere, you can't target weight loss like that - the calories you burn from the exercise will help you lose weight overall but it's perfectly easy to get a layer of fat over well developed muscles if you don't get the balance right.
Yeah, I don't do the pec excerises to lose moob fat, it's just part of my excersise routine.

Timing is everything. So many things to do, so little time to do them...but must get the timing right.
A 'one time' wouldn't go amiss at the minute on sooooo many levels.

40 friggin minutes each way - for live crickets. To feed to the lizard. As ya do. No other business in Tralee other than the crickets. Crickets which must be kept alive and 'bulked up' by feeding them various things...before feeding them to the lizard.
Note to self - Do NOT agree to odd pets in future without researching them first!

Have you tried feeding them grasshoppers from your garden? I have no knowledge of if it would work but I am quite curious.

Generally, you're not to feed them insects bigger than their head. Not sure about the grasshoppers in the garden as I've never spotted one, but the ones in the shop are HUGE compared to our wee man. Also, crickets seem to be their favourite. They're loud lil darlins at night though.
To 'bulk up' the crickets, we toss in dry dog food and fish food flakes with them as their basic stuff. Now and then they get a slice of apple or lettuce, but you have to be careful not to leave it in more than a day or so to avoid the fresh food going off.
We throw the odd headless meal worms into a dish for him as a treat as well. We learned the 'headless' bit the hard way. Leave the head on and the meal worm will eat the insides of the Gecko until it turns into into an adult beetle. We didn't know that the first time so this is our second Gecko. Sigh.
One of these days I'll give a proper insect hunt through the fields. It's one of the few things I don't take much notice of on our walks. Insects. Pretty silly really when you consider I'll drive 40 minutes each way for something that may very well be easy enough to find outside our door.

DON'T let one of the crickets escape - I've a friends whose brother let one escape & her familly ended up removing all the carpets and most of the floorboards before they managed to kill the little fecker - 1 week of no sleep at all.

Tax returns. Man I hate them. Hate the fact I know how to do them even more. Not an accountant mind, but the one time the tax man tried to take us on, I won the case and we were sent a nice cheque the following week for overpayment. At the time they claimed we owed them more money. Sure did. That's the only time in 14 years they've come knocking. They've not bothered us before or since. Can't say I blame them. Cost em a nice chunk that one time.
Tax season in Ireland doesn't really hit until October. But with Brian's college stuff coming up (hopefully) as well as some other factors, I need to get them done sooner rather than later. With that in mind, I've set myself a deadline of Monday to have them complete.
Will spend today tearing through the house though. I'm one of those people who can't think straight when surrounded by any sort of mess. Even if it's a load of washing in the hall closet that nobody else can see. I know it's there and it does me head in until I tackle it.
So that's today's lot. Windows and floors to wash, laundry to do and a general tidy up around the place. Must fire up the desktop for my cleaning music too. Any suggestions? Lily and Cassie are already hyped up. Lily knows it's dancing time and Cassie knows Lily is excited so she's joining in the hype just because. I'm actually quite looking forward to the rest of the day. Hope you lot enjoy yours too. xx

All that over just 1?! I've three cartons of the feckers in the back hall closet as we speak. Would have to find the nearest bridge if they all got out.
