Today was much better then I've been. It was a holiday weekend. Which means my will power went right out the door with the Easter Bunny. I didn't walk at all Friday, Saturday, OR Sunday! I went right back to it hardcore on Monday. I ate healthy at work and at home and I walked. I WALKED. I took a slower, quick walk with my kids for a half mile. Then I did MY walk. I walked a total of 2.89 miles. A new record for me. I even went up the hill. I talked myself into it. I was just going to do the flat route. I wasn't in the mood to go up the hill. But I did. I did it. I went up the hill. It didn't feel good. ha ha. I concentrated on my music and breathing and just charged right up.
I was proud of myself.
Today I plan on walking 3 miles again. This time without the kids so that it's a real 3 miles. I keep looking for low calorie breakfast and lunches. I'm sort of a picky eater. It's hard for me to find foods that I like that are good for me except for a few. I can't eat the same thing every day. I need fast breakfast foods and easy to make/take along lunch foods. I have a fridge and a microwave at work but that's it. So the food has to be made ahead of time. I don't have a lot of time before work to make things-I already wake up at 4am-so I need simple and easy things.
I don't feel like I lost any weight but the scale says I did. I feel the same, my clothes fit the same, and I move the same.
Off I go to walk like a crazy person through my neighborhood with my purple sneakers, gray with purple striped exercise pants, and purple coat. I must look ridiculous with all my purpleness. :)
