Good morning

The daily exercise is benefitting me in other ways than just helping me to lose weight. I sleep better and wake up more alert, quicker. I seem to be thinking faster and I have a lot more energy.

Today for breakfast I will have some cereal w/ low fat milk and eiether some juice or some fruit.

For lunch I am going to have a veggie burger, and a small salad.

For supper I will have a low fat chicken pot pie and some green beans and some cooked carrots.

If I need a snack I am going to eat some raisens.

My exercise will be finishing up the mowing.

I am getting my treadmill today I think. That will help me get some of my exercise when I am not mowing. I am not doing the weights today. I will be doing the weights every other day.

Everyone have a good day and come in here and tell us what you are doing for today. It does help keep you on track if you talk about the positive things that you are doing for yourself. Plus you might give us new eating ideas. You might give us a new idea for exercise that we have not thought of. Something that would be a change, a new routine, something more fun. Cause if it ain't fun you ain't gonna keep doing it. And besides the same old thing gets boring after a while.

I learned a lot from you. My exercise is walking. Treadmill will be wonderful because you don't have to go outside when it is cold and windy......

Stayed on track for today I stayed busy in the yard raking and mowing and howing around my flowers. I am so ready for everything to start blooming. My irises are already blooming I have purple and white irises mixed togeather they are so pretty. All of my azalias should be in full bloom within the next day or two. Then my lillies, easter lillies, something else that is orange and then my canna and my callas. then my gladiolas. Later still my oleander and my gardenias. I have other things too like lambs ear and widows wart. That sounds like it would be ugly but it is not. It is long thin leaves with tny purple flowers and it is very pretty. And then I have some butterfly bushes and they really do attract butterflys. And my rose bushes. I think that is everything. So you see I really did have a lot to do today getting everything ready for the growing and blooming season.

I think I got plenty of exercise. If I didn't I don't think I am going to worry about it, cause I am tired.

Have a good night everyone.
