Routines

Routines make my life better and when I break them, everything crumbles a bit.

I break them fairly frequently, so life is always an uphill struggle for me.

Today was Sunday, the day I get together with my daughter. We usually walk and we used to go out to eat. Now we do not go out to eat because both of us are trying to lose weight, but I'm ahead of her on the walking, so today we only walked 1.58 mile.

Normally I would go home, eat, rest, and then walk two to four miles, but since I had already walked my body thought it was in downhill mode. I was totally exhausted.

Then when I went to the store to buy greens for dinner, I bought all kinds of verboten things like cookies, donuts, and a sub sandwich.

It's not the first time I've done this, but this time I actually felt full and threw away half the sandwich. Of course that wasn't enough, but it was still better than I've done in the past.

Tomorrow is a new day. If there is anything I've learned, it is that.
