Phase 4, Day 7
Score: 17 - Good

Did my exercises today including walking. And 1 set of back stretches!

This is seven successful Phase 4 days so tomorrow it's on to Phase 5.

The scoring ranges for Phase 4 are:
0: Excellent!
1-21: Good

22-39: Fair

40+: Start Again

Here is the general explanation of the behavioral modification approach I'm using.

1/2 cup applesauce with 1 teaspoon Acacia

Guiltless Gourmet Tortilla Chips (they're not so guiltless when you eat too many of them

)

Honeybush tea with 2 sugar lumps
500mg calcium from Tums; 200IU Vitamin D

PM Snack: I missed this

Dinner:
1 bowl of My Chili

I got 6 additional teaspoons of Acacia throughout the day, for a total of 7 teaspoons of Acacia.
I got 60 ounces of fluid which is not enough.
