Leeda: Running in a Fat Suit

This will be a big test for me. I’m going out of town to visit my in laws, or rather to let them see the baby. MIL is a big food pusher, and a great cook…really bad combo lol. I know there is a walking track near their house, so I will have to make use of that while I am there. I’m also going to take a pair of my dumbbells along. As long as I stick to veggies, fruits, whole grains, lean meats, I should be ok. Unfortunately, that can be in short supply at their house sometimes.

I weighed myself today and I was at 204.5. I really couldn’t’ believe it.  If I lose 1 pound a week, I will make my Onederland goal. Yay! I CAN DO IT!!

I’m ending tonight with 20 minutes of yoga and 10 minutes of strength training (core body).

I started the day off with a few errands, followed by a 30 minute walk. I hate it when people try to bother you while walking. I can understand stopping to talk to you for just a bit, saying hello, but I come to the park to think and primarily to exercise. Anyway, I know they dont mean any harm. I ate a late breakfast, so we will call it brunch.

Brunch:  chicken breast and cantaloupe

Snack: sunflower seeds

Lunch: turkey sub topped with lots of veggies, cheese

Snack: small bowl of raisin bran w/ 2 percent milk

Dinner: chicken breast, cauliflower, cantaloupe
