    1. Take the steps all day - no elevator for me!! :)
    2. Only eat Grilled Chicken and Salad at tonights meeting. No awesome Mac n Cheese for me tonight. (I have to log this so that it makes me accountable. It's not going to be easy to pass up.) :# the had a different assortment of food at the meeting. Pasta in alfredo sauce and salad drenched in italian dressing. Ate a small portion of pasta. Could not do the salad... way too much dressing.
    3. Water :)

    JFT I'm going to cut myself off from eating anything else for a few reasons...

    1. I'm not actually hungry, I just want to eat things to eat things
    2. By doing so I can remain relatively on track for the rest of the day
    3. I'll really be able to enjoy the treat meal I'm planning for myself after weigh-in

    Accomplished :)

    JFT
    1. I'm going to enjoy my one treat food, a pint of Halo Top icecream, without guilt.
    2. I'm going to complete D3W2 of my Couch to 5K program
    3. I'm going to join my boyfriend at the slow yin flow yoga class he asked me to attend with him

    Just for today: I may be over, but I will log. I may be under with my water, but I will be mindful to drink all day, and I will not go into the pantry for snacks after 7pm!!

    Enjoy the weekend!

    NONE of that stuff happened. It was raining so no dog walk, ended up taking the day and going wine-tasting in Carmel Valley. I managed to stay within maintenance calories, though, so no real damage. Had a wonderful Mahi Mahi sandwich at a nice little restaurant. And, some good wine. Nice way to spend a rainy day.

    JFT, 3/06

    1. Walk the dogs

    JFT 3/7/16

    - drink 3 HUGE glasses of water
    - plan/track meals before diving in
    - eat slowly; chew lots
    - take your vitamins

    Exercise tomorrow won't be a problem. I'm a Bikram yoga teacher and so I practice right after work. Always the problem is when I get home and get a serious hankering.
