Raisins
I read in a women's magazine that raisins are a good snack because they contain boron which helps that mid afternoon slump and improves your thinking. I do have an issue about 2:30 in the afternoon where I feel tired and start to crave chocolate and caffeine. I usually respond to this by getting chocolate and a soda pop. I'm going to try to replace the chocolate with raisins and the large soda pop with a small one and see how this works out. I have a "better than" attitude toward dieting I guess but it seems to be working. Anyway, I'll let you know how this works out. :)

Reservoir
Walking around a reservoir sounds so nice, though! I run on these levies along the marshes of the San Francisco bay for my long runs. Its really beautiful-but I know I'd rather be walking it!
Heirloom tomatoes are so good! They are kind of funny looking and come in several beautiful colors such as purple-ish red, yellow, orange, and green. They come as small as a cherry to as large as a cantaloupe!! If you love tomatoes, you will love these. You can buy the seeds and grow them yourselves if you can't find any near you.
Take care! Keep on Bloggin'! :)

Right Attitude
Yes, you do have the right attitude for dieting. Well, lets not say dieting and say "lifestyle change of eating habits". Cause I know that is what this will need to be for all of us.
You are doing great anytime that you can decide on eating something healthier and not the usual quick pick-me up junk.
Keep up the good work. I will be back to check on you. Chargail

Be careful
Too many raisens can cause painful gas. I did that once, ate probably a cup of raisens at work. I broke out in a sweat and felt like I had mexican jumping beans throughout my body. Never again! LOL!
