    • Few minutes on my home exercise bike.
    • Few minutes with home hand weights
    • Continue the supermarket search for a healthy bread
    • Drink more water
    • Eat less sugar
    • Go for a walk in the local area

    The magic of writing it down. :)
    Today could have turned into a 'stay in your pjs' lazy Sunday, but writing the above spurred me on and I achieved all of the above, passing the 10 000 steps target as well.

    I wish that writing it down meant I'd do it. There's really no magic in it for me.
