1st day of the d word-again

So I woke up today ready to work out and my husband wants me to stay in bed with him.  I want to stay.  I try and stay but I know in the back of my head that I won’t go for a run later in the day so I do it.  I get out of bed.  I loaded the pup in the truck and took off to my path.  Not my path cause if I had a choice I wouldn’t let anybody run on it while I was running.  So, the general path by my house I head to. 

It felt good to get out there.  It was perfect weather.  Dog was in fine form for keeping me going.  I got to the .25 mile marker with my warm up walk and started running.  I went to the 1.25 mile marker and wanted to turn around but I didn’t I kept going.  All the way to the 1.75 mile marker then we turned around.  It is kind of funny cause there is a part of the path that turns to an open field and it is like my dog knows that I am going to be turning around soon, she keeps turning her head towards me and looking at me like she wants me turn.  When I made it to the 2.5 mile mark a lady passed me and she was going a good pace so I tried to keep up to her, but staying about 50 feet away.  When I got to the end I thanked her for keeping me going.   Any ways, I run all the way back to that first .25 mile marker.  3 miles of running, 1/2 mile of walking.  40 minutes. 

As far of food goes it has been a good day.  A bowl of cereal for breakfast.  Tuna sandwich and carrots for lunch and yogurt for snack.  I bought some of those Eating Right meals from Safeway so that is what I am going to have for dinner with an apple.  And corn.  I have been drinking water like crazy all day. 

I have bible study tonight and I know that there will be a snack there.  But I will either have something small or not have anything at all and reward myself with a fruit popsicle when I get home. 

When I know I am going to be posting my food intake it sure makes me more aware of what I put in my mouth.  I am a honest person so even though anyone that reads this would have no idea if I am telling the truth or not, I would know.    So that helps so much.
