It has been three weeks since I have had a diet coke. I have finally gotten to the point where I do not crave one. Been drinking more water, unsweetened tea, and lime La Croix. I have been trying to eat smaller portions and not snack on unhealthy foods. I have been less successful at that, but I am trying. There are so many good restaurants around here and I hate cooking so I have been eating out too much. And even though I usually only eat 1/2 to 3/4 of whatever I have ordered, I know it is still too many calories.

I have been really enjoying the nice weather this week. It actually reached 80 yesterday, and is supposed to break a record today of low 80s. Colder weather (what they call winter weather down here) is returning On Friday with rain and highs in the 50s.
