Yea Me!

Went on a great walk/run with a co-worker today during our lunchtime. Gray's Lake is a fabulous place to walk. It's a great wonderful park and Des Moines did a great service by investing in it and renovating it to it's current condition. The trail (by my pedometer) is 1.73 miles.

I was so busy when I got to work that I completely forgot to eat breakfast until 11:00am, so I grabbed my bag of strawberries and bing cherries and gobbled them down. I knew I would need something to get me through the walk/run at lunch time.

For lunch I had a Weight Watcher Smart One Macaroni and Cheese, steamed broccoli and a Crystal Light Berry Splash (I love that stuff).....3 days without a Diet Pepsi...so far, so good.

For dinner, we had grilled hamburgers (no buns), Ore-Ida Frozen Golden Fries and I had asparagus. To celebrate making it 3 days with no soda, I had a Skinny Cow Mint Chip Ice Cream Sandwich for dessert.

I've uped my water intake, but not much...yesterday, I only made it to 48 ounces and today I'm struggling with 32oz. Sure wish I liked water more. I like it when I'm really thirsty, but that is it.

On the iPod playlist:
One - Creed
Holdin On To Yesterday - Ambrosia
Psycho - Puddle of Mudd
How Much I Feel - Ambrosia
Eagles Fly - Sammy Hagar
All I Want - Toad the Wet Sprocket
Hollywood - Shooting Star


Fred's on vacation, lucky dog......I work from home tomorrow afternoon. I gotta start thinking about what we're going to take on our upcoming road trip.

I sure wish I liked other beverages more...I hate tea, I hate coffee, ice water is ok, but I gotta have my Coke Zero, lol. Not sure how I'd survive without a little bubbly fake sweetness in my life. Hm...even thinking about all the scrapping (or other) stuff I could buy with the money, I just don't think I could do it. Good for you!
