Day 18

There is something to be said for that.  Got a call from my father today and he invited Vickie and I to go to Taggart's Grill in Traggart.  If you have not been there, you are missing something.  The food is very good and the desserts are out of this world.  Earlier this year when Vickie had her MRI and even before we got the results from the Dr., we knew it was cancer we went to Taggart and bought a bunch of the desserts because Vickie wanted a treat.  Anyway we will see what happens and how strong I am.

Total Calories for today figure out to be about 2874.  Calories are up a lot today. Not good.  The trip to Taggarts wasn't a good idea although the food and company were great.  Next time I will stay away from the fish and chips and cookies, even though the are the best macaroon cookies I have ever had.  I want the calories down to about 1800 or so.  I know what to do, I just need to get on the stick and do it.  I know I keep saying that and hopefully it going to sink in this hard head very soon. And time to confess my steps were only about 8,500 today.  Need to get them back up to 10,000 or my ex-boss is going to be after me.  The water was no problem because I am always drinking water.
