Just 4 today I’m going to have my fiber supplement twice (I’ve had it once already), drink 2 liters of water (I’ve had one), walk 3 miles (none yet), back up this database and upgrade the software (which I hope will solve the ‘password’ problem.
As you can see, the goals mentioned here don’t have to be food related. What are you going to do today?

ok, just for today I’m going to
drink my 8 glasses of water (why is this so hard, I LOVE water?)
walk three miles (DONE!)
Go to my family reunion picnic and have more strawberries than ice cream. My mantra today: “It doesn’t always have to come out even.”
“it doesn’t always have to come out even”
Can I steal this line?
Maryb, that’s a GREAT mantra for today!
I just finished washing the two dogs with my daughter, Katy. Also continued opening pool. Later, a bike ride with Katy and then I’ll try and put together a healthy BBQ.
And I’m going to fly my flag, because even though I don’t agree with this war, I support our troops.

Here is another ice cream treat tip: If you are trying to control sugar, actual whipped cream is better than cool whip.
This is because whipped cream contains so much air that you can have a generous tablespoon or two and end up with less sugar than an equal amount of the denser coolwhip!
And the same principle applies to those who wish to control fats or carbs: Take an even smaller serving of ice cream, and have some whipped cream on it. Again, because of the high air content, you will be consuming less fat than you would if you had another spoonful of ice cream!
(I have recently seen commercials for a sugar-free cool whip, and if that is an option, it would, of course, be best of all)
J4T I’m drinking my 2 liters of water and getting plenty of exercise in and outside the house.
Happy to see everyone here and hopes everyone has a great weekend.
Of course you can steal the mantra. I can’t really take credit for it except that I flipped it from the usual. Every time we have strawberry shortcake it’s a family joke that it should always come out even, as you add another scoop of ice cream.
But today, I rebelled
