Just 4 Today, I’ll drink my fiber twice (done once), drink 2 liters of water (I’ve drunk about 1/2 liter), walk 5 miles (yesterday 1.3), NOT eat between meals & NOT take seconds.
I’ve got to get to work early so if I’m going to do any walking at the gym, I’ve got to post and run. I promise to be more thoughtful (HA!) soon — but in the meantime….
Even when things are crazy-busy taking a minute or two to post here helps me face the day with a purpose.
What are you going to do today?

I’ll have to do some extra walking today… I stuffed myself silly at church yesterday. We sang in the morning, I had two helpings of jambalaya at noon, and ended up “singing” all afternoon and evening. Bad bad baaaaad.
At least I have a short week to work, and no (office) work next week. If I don’t get chicken-housed, I might be able to relax!
Good evening KB and FAR.
KB I’ll be so glad when you’ve got some time to sit back and relax a little bit. Heck even if you don’t have the time, take some!
FAR I haven’t had good jambalaya in a long time. I envy your stuffing yourself.
Hi kb. I hope that you’re okay. No walking out in the cold today. Tomorrow is another day.
Hi Guys!
I walked a little over 5 miles today. I’ve gained a couple of pounds and I’m determined to take it off before Christmas. I’m NOT going to miss my morning walk. Mister is reluctant for me to walk in the dark on icy sidewalks; and I can’t say I blame him. But I think the lack of evening walking is taking a toll. So I’d better work it in earlier in the day.
It’s good to see you. Oh, and FamilyMan — thanks for giving Andi my message!
kb– I’m in the same place you are with the couple of pounds up, and not getting in the walks. We have no ice here in S.CA , but we sure do have dark !
OTOH, the other big thing is stress eating. My mother’s health is deteriorating again, perhaps finally, and we’re all reacting badly to this fact. I was back in the snow for the weekend– there was no real opportunity for exercise and way too much food, especially of the type one should never touch.
So, have to get back on track. Violated all the precepts this weekend– only weighed once, took seconds of no-no foods, no exercise, didn’t write down everything I ate. I did drink a lot of fluids, for whatever that was worth, and took my vitamins and calcium.
So, tomorrow is the first day of the rest of my life. Again !
Oh, Catdog — I’m very sorry about your mother. I’ll be thinking/praying for you.
{{{Catdog}}} I hope everything works out with your mom.
FM, I definitely paid for that extra helping. It was good, but it backfired on me. Big time.
I walked a little more than usual this afternoon. Still pretty chilly out, which helps burn calories of course.
Catdog I too am hoping for the best for your mother. Diet or no diet, remember during these trying times to take care of yourself.
KB you’re welcomed and I’m glad Andi got in touch with you.
FAR sorry to hear about the, ahem, backfire.
