    had a virus last week, finally logging today for first time in a week, so I am getting back logging every day so I don't start over eating now that I am feeling better.

    At last - managed to cut the grass, but did not walk around the local area as I was feeling under the weather. Did a lot of lifting and bending while gardening though.

    Today is May 26th. My goal was to be at my goal weight by my 65th birthday, in July. Well, I am not going to make that, as I have been MIA on this site, and not logging my food. Someone so sweet on this site wrote to me, with the encouragement, and boost that I needed to today, to get started again. Giving up is easy, but not what will help me to feel better about myself. Giving up will not make worries, and problems go away.

    So JUST FOR TODAY, I will
    1. Not give up. I am worth it to keep trying
    2. log all my food
    3. watch what I eat tonite at a potluck I am going to. I am bringing fresh fruit - so I will fill my plate with that.
    4. remember to drink water tonite
    5. sew chemo hats for a good friends sister
    6. Count my many blessings
