Winter Weight

Losing that winter weight
OK, truth is I have put on a few extra pounds over this past winter. My wife hurt her foot and we have'nt been walking. Now I guess we're being faced with that dreaded four letter word diet. Yes, you read it right diet.Normally when we travel we are'nt faced with such a consequence. We have our oatmeal and juice or fruit at breakfast, usually about nine or nine-thirty in the morning. Lunch comes about one or two and we have soup or a sandwich. We buy small portion TV dinners for our evening meal with yogurt for a snack. So we don't have to worry much because are daily activities are enough to burn up any excess calories.But, we didn't travel this past winter, just eating at home and laying around watching TV. Now the pants don't fit as well as they used to and something got to give. Rather than going on a diet we normally walk a mile or so four or five times a week. But her foot is hurt and I totally lack the ambition to walk by myself. So I've been trying to come up with an alternative to diet, not an alternative diet.I mowed the grass an Saturday, took Sunday off, our four year old grandson came over on Monday, and I know that he was good for at least a few calories. I thought about cleaning the garage but to be honest I would almost rather diet. Guess I'll go piddle with the motorhome and maybe go fishing.
