    Back after a long time - SO JFT
    1. LOG ALL FOOD. I have not been doing this! I have been doing OK though, but it really helps to stay on track to log every day - no matter what
    2. drink water. Remember, many times it is thirst not hunger!
    3. sew on quilts
    4. work in yard
    5. take a LONG walk- It is beautiful outside today. Smell the roses along the way!

    Only drink plain, still water
    Few minutes on home exercise bike
    Few minutes with home hand weights
    Walk around local shops
    Stay within calorie target
    Cut grass if it doesn't rain
    Wear more clothes

    It's become chilly here, after a few hot days. I needed an extra layer of clothing yesterday, but didn't put one on. That might be why I ate more than I intended to, hence number 7.

    All done except for cutting the grass. It will have to wait at least until tomorrow.
