Just for today, I’ll walk 3 miles, drink 2 liters of water & take my fiber supplement.
My doctor tells me that I need to lose 5 pounds — I GUESS so! I’d say I should lose 30. And if I do …. then I could knit myself some really cute sweaters!
Monday, Checking in. Hanging on…..
Just 4 Today, I’m nog going to eat between meals and I’m not going to take seconds. And I’ll walk at least 3 miles, drink two liters of water and take my fiber supplement.
I hope. I’ve got a terrible sore throat so I might just end up parked on the couch all day drinking chicken soup.
We’ll see.
What are you going to do today?

Friday, Grappling with reality?
I’m not going to eat between meals and I’m not going to take seconds. And I’m going to walk at least 3 miles today (as I do just about everyday,) take my fiber supplement and drink two liters of water.
This has been a weird few months for me. First that bizarre winter where just getting out of the house at all was a nearly overwhelming challenge. THEN for some reason I haven’t been able to keep track of my pedometer. I’ve worn the thing everyday for years but, since the first of March I’ve lost it twice.
Most recently, it’s been missing for nearly a month. I’ve looked everywhere for it — tried the “don’t panic, it’ll turn up when you least expect it” technique. And sure enough, it turned up under my least favorite pair of socks when I grudgingly decided to pick them up from the corner where I’d tossed them. Lesson learned. I’m sure.
Anyway, the pedometer proved it’s super-human powers . . . Yesterday I
got my new driver’s license, visited parents, planted tomatoes & walked 3.5 miles before lazing on the patio for a couple of hours. All in all good day — it couldn’t have happened without my trusty pedometer!

Sunday, happiness is a full tummy
Just4Today, I’m not going to eat between meals and I’m not going to take seconds. AND – I’ll take my fiber supplement, walk at least 3 miles & not eat more than 6 teaspoons of sugar. I’m sure there’s more but, I’m to anxious to get out to the porch to think about it now.

Tuesday, finding the pattern
The knitting metaphors are working for me this week so, I guess I’ll stick with it….
One of the reasons I stopped my regular posts was that for 2 years my shoulder hurt so steadily sometimes it was all I could think about. And getting online to whine about my stupid shoulder seemed self absorbed and boring. But, I wasn’t really thinking (much) about anything else.
So it was quite a thrill to find that after knitting for about a month the pain in my shoulder is pretty much gone. I mean totally gone for hours and even days at a time!!
So how’s that for a pattern? Also, the new scarf I’m working on has a lacy edge…..
