The sparkpeople program has you journal daily, as you can see I haven’t been very good at that. Right now, I am very tired and ready to hit the sack. This is going to be a short one.
Things are going well with my efforts at more healthy living. My food habits haven’t been great but I am making great efforts at getting veg’s in my diet and eating less fat.
Today’s walk went well, 2.8 miles I made pretty good time. I’m not sure of the exact time because I stopped to talk to a neighbor around the corner for quite some time. I did find myself slowing down at the end but on the whole I kept a good pace.
I had a great dinner! I made a chicken foil packet, I found the directions at about.com. I googled chicken foil packets and got a lot of results. So if you are looking for something to put in your foil packet there are lots of good ideas out there. I started with their basic idea – meaning the foil, the chicken breast, the cooking spay & olive oil. Then on my chicken breast I put about fajitas seasoning, sea salt, 3/4 of a chopped tomato, about 1/3 of a chopped yellow/orange pepper, a chopped green onion, and a bunch of minced garlic, wrapped it all in foil, 450 degrees 30 minutes (my oven cooks slow, they said 20 minutes). Moist and yummy. It looked smelled and tasted delicious, next time I will take a picture. I also had some pasta and broccoli. I couldn’t finish my dinner (but later I was hungry so definitely some bad food planning).
I read that while eventually exercise will help you have more energy and need less sleep up front, it’ll actually make you more tired. I am still in the more tired stage. So it is off to bed for me! I hope everyone had a great weekend!
I’d love to hear how you guys are doing on squeezing good workouts into your busy lives.

well I went for two walks today. Not extraordinary but they were walks. And as long as I stay out of the cookies tonight I will do good. I need some rewards so I have decided that after I lose 7 more lbs I get to buy a new top. Time to go get some more water before laying down for the night.
