Finally working on ending the day. Had to cut up a fresh pineapple and maybe 6 quarts of tomatoes this evening so I'm ready to call it a day shortly. The pineapple is for just eating, after my mouth gets over the burn from the first bit of it. The tomatoes will need canning but it depends on which jars I have. Was planning salsa but prefer to put it in pint jars and I'm not sure I have enough empty ones. Guess I'll check that out tomorrow.

Ended the day at 1071 for calorie intake and a deficit of at least 1290 based on activity for the day. Weight is down 1.4 pounds this week, satisfactory loss for me, enough to keep me motivated but not enough to pull metabolism down. If I stick to this track, will have no problem reaching my short term goal before Thanksgiving. Think I'll call it quits now. Be strong, all.
