I had a good food day yesterday and am hoping for another today. I've started jotting down a dailey menu every morning and then logging my food on MFP. The only thing is it makes me feel obsessed with food. I'm hoping if I do this for a short period of time I can extend writing the menu for a week.

Still not doing good on exercise but I'm taking Judy's advice and start out with short minutes like 10 and then increase as I go.

Also need to increase my water intake - only drank half of what I should have yesterday.

Hope everyone has a great day.

I can do this - I'm taking baby steps!
On Spark People, they encourage to "just do 10 minutes" of whatever it is you are trying to accomplish - exercise, chores, etc. From that you add minutes and success. My Spark food tracker also allows me to save meals so that when I plan my menus, I don't have the added burden of adding those foods. Does MFP have that function? It takes time to record the foods we eat. Last thing I want is more time on this time vampire!
