    SO just for today, weds

    JFT 11/11:
    Missed being under by 200 calories yesterday and the culprit is a common one for me: Portion size. I get 'em too big to begin with and I love my second helpings. Also failed to get in my exercise..had I done that, I probably would have banked enough to stay in my calorie range. Today's a new day..

    1) Watch the portion sizes
    2) Get some exercise in...walk on break/borrow the mini cycle for my cube..run..SOMEthing

    EDIT: I'm cycling as I type :)

    So late again posting! I'm having my garden club over tonite to sit outside with the firepit, and roast marshmallows. But -- we have winds of 20+ mph! Hubby says no way can we sit outside. So I've had to do a quick clean-up of the house incase we are all inside. Hoping though that the winds will die down a little.

    so for the rest of today, here's my list:
    Tonite, concentrate on WATER instead of diet soda or food!
