    JUST FOR TODAY I will be in the Now (Eckhart Tolle) If anyone has read his book it is really interesting and hard to do in everyday life.

    I went to the movies last night, had dinner at Swiss Chalet and popcorn and the free Lindor chocolates afterward. Of course the scale revealed my night of poor eating. I need to record my weekend eating more which is very hard for me since we go out a lot with friends to restaurants. I need to make a different strategy for eating out.

    Tonight will be the same, we have a meeting with some friends at a restaurant to discuss the Christmas float for our sailing club. I will have to make a good choice tonight even
    though it will be Pub food choices.

    Marie,

    You seem to be doing great with this new plan. Keep up the good work. !!!

    I did not do as well on my thanksgiving weekend, with no counting calories and
    not eating like I should. I hope to get back on track before the holidays so I can
    enjoy them and not have to worry about eating too much.

    Today I will focus on what joy Sammy gave to me. I have not been out to his grave since we buried him. I need to do that and talk to him. Maybe that will ease some of my sadness.. He never did like being left out in the back yard by himself RIP Sammy
