I got a lot of writing done this evening late. I just have to do it EVERY day and it's easy and not a problem nor is it a chore. If I have to stay up and write because I'm a night owl I will do it. The weather is getting cooler and cooler, it feels cold out now. I must get more exercise in the coming weeks than I have been... Hope everyone is doing well... 

Are you able to walk better now with your back? The cooler weather might make you feel good walking and you can "walk" off some calories. It is still so hot here, I have no desire to walk. Plus we have been busy, busy. I think cooler weather builds an appetite easier. All my relatives in New York are fat! ~ LOL. They don't move summer OR winter. Have a good one Glenn. 

Hi - My back is SO MUCH better and my feet ache a little from walking around but things are much better. I STILL have a gym membership I haven't used in about a year, they have no pool there, but if I go there till February or so I can walk indoors so have to get myself in there and may join the local Y in the spring. My credit cards will be paid by then OFF, I may buy a generic Tempurpedic bed. I realize as much as I want to return to Hawaii it may have to wait until I'm published successfully. I also believe like you the cooler weather can make us eat more as our ancestors for millenia had to 'fatten up' for the lean season, and it was lean for most until maybe the early 1900s - so our bodies are programmed to eat more in the cold weather I believe. It is getting up to around 60* for a high, hopefully warmer weather to 70* by the weekend. It will be cold for the next six months for the most part, once October is over to early April it's quite cold here with snow, cold rain, etc. and everyone ends up cooped up indoors, which isn't pleasant. Thanks for checking in - I will try to get on journals after I type tonight - it will be late... 

Congrats that your back is better! Hang in there with the diet!
