It's been a good day. I'm on day two of an experiment that's working well.
I'm thankful for my time in the pool and fitness center this morning. I didn't expect to do as much as yesterday as my legs are sore from the intense workout on the leg press. However, it didn't bother them to get the workout.
I'm thankful the food experiment I'm working on is working. I'm focusing on fruit and little of anything else. Yesterday I had two bananas, a bag of green grapes, and a bowl of thawed mixed fruit. I ate a slice of bacon and two fried eggs around five p.m. This morning my weight was down. So far today, I've only had bananas. I'm thinking about getting out a bag of grapes or other fruit I bought yesterday.
I'm thankful for the nap I got this morning. I was surprised to need a nap since I woke after 3 this morning and didn't have time for much of anything before I needed to leave for the Y.
I'm thankful I have the notifications finished. It's always good to see what your day looks like.
That's my day. Time for me to work on Vendetta. I really want to finish it this month.
Thanks for reading. What are you thankful for today? The image belongs to me.

Remember the Scarsdale diet from back in the early 80's , kinda pre Atkins..? Any day you were allowed to eat a "salad" of mixed fruits with a couple of walnuts for protein. I lost weight on that diet and seriously enjoyed my fruit salads.

I've heard of it but didn't know about it. I'm glad you lost weight on it. I'm not changing my diet. I'm still doing Paleo. I'm just focusing more on fruit as fruit is good for weight loss. I'm going to have a meal day and a fruit day. I hope to get to my next goal sooner than what I was doing in having two meals a day and just eating right.

I'm still on the same diet, I'm just focusing more on fruit as fruit is good for weight loss. I'm down quite a bit in three days now. I'm going to alternate the days, a meal day, and a fruit day. Today is a meal day. I just finished breakfast.
You always have a lot to be thankful for.

To day is the 14th and I'm thankful for the same thing I was thankful for yesterday and all the days that came before. If I live I'll be grateful for that same thing in the future. God's faithfulness. Believe me, if He were not faithful and true I don't know how I would manage in this life.

Today I am thankful that my daughter in laws surgery went well.
Glad you're having success with your food experiment. I've been on a black grape kick lately

I'm glad her surgery went well.
Thank you. Still the same diet, just focusing on fruit. I don't think I've seen black grapes.

Your choices of fruit are healthy, great news that your weight was down. I enjoy fruit at least once a day. My car never gets very dirty, but Jay spent the afternoon cleaning it out. He was looking for another project, to keep him busy.

@just4him You're past that weight plateau, which must be very discouraging! My mother lost ten pounds in a short length of time, after her plateau ended. You're on your way, Valerie!

Not yet. You best buy Thread of Evidence first if you plan on buying it when I finally get it finished. Vendetta is the sequel. It's coming together. I started a scene yesterday that to me made no sense until I went to bed and my whole night was about that scene. It's more important than I realized.
