Just My Day 3 Food Journal
July 7, 2008
Need sleep, busy day, early morning, not sure why I’m still up.
OH! I do have to tell you I hit the gym or the first time since the surgery. SO MUCH FUN. I know some of you don’t agree but that hour with nothing but music and weights was just what I needed today.

| green tea | -0 | 21 |
| Food Experiment: Winter Squash Fritter | -3 | 18 |
| Fresh Green Beans from the garden | -0 | 18 |

| Activity: 20 minute walk on treadmill 40 minutes upper body workout with weights | +2 | 17 |
| Wrap on whole grain Trader Joe’s wrap, turkey, 1/2 oz cheese and a ton of veggies and a splash of olive oil dressing (an a bite of the toddlers pb&j rollup) | -6 | 11 |

Love the new site! Very impressive and fun!
I also really like the food journal structure-is that something other people can use or is it just something you’ve formatted for your blog?

I love the new site. I share the same question as Lizzie who asked if other people can use your food journal structure. Is there a way we could get the format?

But if you skip the fudge, all you’re getting is ice cream … and the vanilla cone is also 3 points. I’ll take my ice cream on a cone! :D

Morning All!
I just came up with the new table for my food journal. I like it too! :~) I have a generator for the old one…

When I have some time I’ll work on a version 3 that recreates the new structure. It take a few weeks but I’ll announce it when it’s ready.
Arlene - I agree! But I was never one for cones. Just don’t like them. :~)
mizfit - YES! and it does feel FANTASTIC!!

That is AWESOME that you were able to get back to the gym. Despite being sore and a bit apprehensive about returning to working out after a surgery, there is nothing like that first post-workout high. And noticing that you are still whole and in one piece!
And I couldn’t applaud you more for your response in “How Amazing–A Response”

I just came across this story on msnbc.com and thought of that person who left the comment the other day about wasting time or whatever

I just thought it was interesting - I’ve seen stories like this before but the timing with that other commenter…
And btw - I GREATLY appreciate all that you do!

Hey, I like the new website design! Much better than your old one.
I see a few of your posts have this journal point system on them. What do the points mean?
