We did pretty good Week #4. We've made some changes that I'm pretty sure are going to stick with us even after the challenge is over. I finally have Connor eating wheat bread and liking it rather than white bread. Fred is really watching his portions and I've ramped up my exercise by starting to jog. I bought a Nike+iPod fitness system and I'm loving it! I like how it tracks my walks/runs and I tend to go further, longer and faster when I use it. The down side is it won't work for my elliptical workouts because it can't recognize my sensor when using the elliptical.
Last Saturday, Fred and I went to Fitness Sports and bought new athletic shoes. Fred got a pair of New Balance and I got these babies - they're so pretty! lol
and I must say that they make my feet feel like they are enveloped in puffy clouds.
We kept things pretty simple this week with our food. Mostly using the grill and having vegies and salads as sides. We did splurge and go to Subway Saturday while we were out doing some shopping, but made good choices there.
We also bought a Frisbee at Scheels while out shopping and plan on spending some time in our yard throwing the Frisbee around as a family activity.
Fred is down 12 pounds and I'm down 3 pounds since starting the challenge. I'd like to be down a few more, but I'll take what I can get.
