Mindful eating: Well..I forgot but I really did enjoy my breakfast while checking the weather, reading some headlines and the MFP homepage.

Weekend check in: Food - weird as we had multiple events Water - tried my best Steps - struggled to get them in Busy busy weekend! Niece graduated from College so we spent Saturday visiting, sitting around eating and drinking coffee but took a walk around town. Sunday my grandson who has surgery on Tuesday was baptized.…

Baseball 4/30 13,479 steps

@cyndiesstuff – hemp hearts are delicious. My only complaint is since they are small you need to keep rinsing your mouth to get them out of your teeth. I’ve been having them as part of my breakfast and tossed on top a salad at night. They are nutty and sort of citrusy – even Lucy loves the smell of them. They are also a…
