END OF DAY
12,700 steps. My feet hurt. No sweets today. Used my one-cup measuring cup today.
CHECK-IN
I didn't walk yesterday because it would have had to be a rush. I will walk today, however. I did eat sweets last night at a dinner. However, on a errand to Walgreen's an hour ago, I avoided all the dangerous aisles. I left with no chocolate and no Diet Coke. 
Slouching toward sane eating,

8,700 steps 
on a walk today, if my iPod pedometer is accurate. No sweets today. Fairly good on water. Overate multigrain crackers.

How about this to rename the blog?
I'm back too
On Saturday I made a commitment to Kim that I would walk on Sunday, which was yesterday. As the day wore on I began to wonder if I was really going to do it, put on my walking shoes and head outside and down to the beach. For instance, I tried to lure myself out there with the promise of an audiobook to listen to walking. A little voice said, you're putting a possible obstacle between you and walking. The voice grew bigger and bigger during the two hours, the bulk of the afternoon, it took to successfully download an audiobook on the internet onto my iPod. (Chose Manil Suri's "City of Devi.")

So I did it. 7,700 steps according to my iPod pedometer. Near home I felt some hot spots on my feet but see no blisters today.

No sugar yesterday. None so far today. None in the apartment. I have my liter of filtered water at my side. And I'm in the process of making my Wild Rice and Cranberry recipe. 

Because of walking yesterday, I think, I feel the inclination to take out the tools that worked for me last time. A food nutrition chart. A modified Weight Watchers daily points log.

OK, Kim. Your turn to blog.

Heading for the boards

I can't believe it's been since april 9 since I wrote an entry and took a walk. Hooking up the ipod, sneakers on. Weigh in next Monday June 3rd. Not even looking today.

Love the New Bridge

I'm walking again! 6200 steps but I did fall short of that second hill.  A great beginning. The winter cost me 7 pounds. I'm not measuring till May 1.  It is a beach day today believe it or not 72 degrees out. Winter to Summer in 24 hours. I'm sure work will give me my other 3800. A great big glass of water too! Heading to the store for some fresh fruit and ingredients for the go to salads in the frig. Join me, Join me. :) even in spirit.
