    the wonderful nature Washington State has to offer!

    Just for today, 4/11
    1. No eating after 7 :)
    2. Water, water, water :)
    3. Log everything I eat!:)

    Just for today, 4/12
    1. Don't let the scale reflect the rest of the day
    2. Remember my Strength Training
    3. Water water water
    4. Keep try to get hubby out for a walk with me.

    Didn't achieve today's goals. Enjoyed some wine in the garden then ate left over cheesecake. All very indulgent. Nice on one level, regretting it now.

    Yesterday
    1. log every thing I eat :/
    2. Mediate for 10 minutes about what is good in my life. Relax, sit out on our patio and enjoy nature. :)
    3. walk :)

    This thursday is our 38th wedding anniversary, so we went out to eat last nite. I didn't get all my food logged in, but I did really well (except for the blooming onions!). But I brought back half of my chicken, and had eaten very lightly throughout the day, plus a 6 mile hike! So I am hoping I am back in the game here!! Thanks to all of you guys for keeping, and getting me back motivated

    So Just for today, Monday 4.13
    1. Log all my food
    2. sit and relax some on the patio - reflecting on all the good in my life.
    3. exercise min 30 minutes

    Last nite our very good friend and neightbor passed away from an anerysm at the age of 56. So no matter what is going on in my life, nothing compares to that, and to what her husband is going through. I will not let grief make me eat unhealthy foods today.

    Just for Today 4/12
    1. log :)
    2. do not let the "weekend attitude" take over :)
    3. weed and plant :) - i didn't weed/plant the garden as intended, but did tackle the front yard, weeding, putting up an edge border and filling with mulch. Plus I repotted some mint. Tackling the rest of the mint in the garden will be quite a challenge.
    4. take the 2-wheeled toy out :( it started to rain

    Just for Today 4/13
    1. Do not be hard on myself for missing a strength day at the gym. There will be times that it does not work out. Do the best I can....
