Ten Toes

This is Day 1 of the Ten Toes fitness program. Goal: Walk 10,000 steps a day. In an effort to get back in shape and lose weight, I'm also going on a diet. No South Beach or Atkins or Weight Watchers (been there, done that). I'm calling this the "Brown Diet." My plan is to avoid all foods that are brown. Brilliant idea! Have you ever realized how many bad, but tasty and definitely high calorie foods are brown? Obviously all colas top the list along with french fries, cookies, pancakes (and the maple syrup you slather on them), brownies, beer (I'm talking microbrews, not Bud Light), chocolate, fried chicken, ... Starting to get the picture? So this is my goal. The walking will be a snap, especially since I have such gorgeous parks to walk through. But giving up Dr Pepper??????
