Well, I got exercise--my arms are telling on me today (lol)! I got out the loppers yesterday and trimmed branches and undergrowth on a 50-foot section along the driveway for about 2 hours. Got too hot and had to go inside until it cooled down around 6 p.m. then I went back outside and picked up the debris--had to be done so customers could get down the drive today.

Unfortunately, I was not a happy camper when I got on the scale this morning--I've gained almost 4 lbs! Now I'm back to square one again with 7-10 lbs to lose!

I thought I was doing good on the eating, but obviously not. I'm drinking lots of water as usual. I'm walking more. I feel like a stuffed pig (lol) and it's back to the fat jeans again!

Time for me to be more watchful of what I eat. Have maintained again, better than a gain I know. Doing good with water/tea, exercise and giving/getting plenty of smiles and hugs

I just had someone ask me if I keep a food journal--I never have but I'm thinking about starting one. A good way to watch and I sure need watching (lol)!
