What Have You Done Today That Is Healthy

I got about a half mile walk in. I started out to walk a mile, but I got stopped by a man wanting to buy a house in the subdivision and was asking questions. If a house comes on the market, it usually doesn't stay long. I directed him to a one bedroom that has a sign "coming soon, house for sale". He should have gotten that number from the sign. The house next to me is under contract. It is basically the same size as ours, but the sunroom is built on (and not as nice) but the baths have both been remodeled and are really nice. I decided I had better just make a quick loop since I didn't want to leave Bill. Then when I got back home, the next door neighbors and her kids were working at packing and filling 4 cars and SUVs. They filled 2 panel trucks and 4 cars the other day. She is moving in with her daughter and son-in-law, so I don't know what they are going to do with all of her stuff! I had to stop and visit for a while and get the scoop. I hate to lose her, she's very nice and her kids are very friendly.

Got my mile in. I don't want to leave Bill for very long at a time, so that is as far as I will go. Right now sitting at almost 900 calories.

You probably work of more than the calories you are taking in with those walks and taking care of Bill!
I did get more steps yesterday walking back and forth to Bible Study. I can't say I did great at eating though, I did have a miniature white chocolate Kit Kat Bar, and my snack after Bible Study was some Christmas shaped Ritz crackers (Ollie's special).

I've done fairly well with my walks. I have been varying between a half mile, 3/4 mile and 9/10 of a mile. I need to figure out a full mile since that route is so close. Most of the time I have done the 3/4 mile, but I have been doing more of the 9/10 lately. Tomorrow is supposed to be kind of nasty, then Sunday will be a lot colder. We will see what happens those days.
I have stayed low in calories and have stayed away from sugar. If I crave sweets, I drink a small cup of Crystal Light, eat a SF jello cup, or just pop a tictac in my mouth. So far, so good. I have lost about 5.4 pounds, so I am going the right direction.

Congratulations on being so consistent and losing that weight!
I had four really good days with mild pain when sitting, standing, or getting in and our of bed. Walking around was much easier. Yesterday I walked back and forth from the Net House (where we worship) and after service we had a fellowship meal and a birthday celebration for our pastor who is in his 79 year of life (although he is 78 today he always tells us he is in the next year of his life. When you are born, you are in the 1st year of your life, but we are actually 9 months old when we are born, so we should be one three months after we are born! Then on your birthday you are 1.9 years old! heehee, figure that one our. I guess in China you are 1 when you are born and then your birthday becomes Jan 1 just as everyone else's in China! I guess you are not allowed to even have your birthday for yourself! When I got home from our fellowship I was hurting and today am still hurting. Just did too much, but I wouldn't change it for anything, love our fellowships!

I didn't walk on Sunday due to rain, but did .77 mile circle today. It was beautiful. I cheated eating a half brownie today. I checked my calories after dinner and they were seriously low, so I split a brownie I bought for Bill. It was soooo good. Shame on me. While I was losing weight originally, I didn't eliminate sugar, so at this point I should be okay if it isn't daily.
