Healthier Choice, Still Over Budget

-
Today I did a better job than yesterday, but not by much. Overall it is a step in the right direction. 

Here is the break down:
+ Logged all my calories using LoseIt
+ Consumed less calories.
- Was over my daily caloric budget.
+ Consumed healthier food.
- Had too much food.
+ Drank more fluids.
- Had 2 glasses of diet soda.
+ Did some physical labor
- Should have walked more, tracked by FitBit

Here are some snapshots from my lunch today. The food at the Soupplantation was yummy. I would have had a third plate, but did not want to go further over budget than yesterday.



Here is a glimpse at my physical labor. I swept a drive way and collected a can full of leaves and twigs. Getting into the gym to workout is not really an option for me, so I find ways like this to workout.

Where to Purchase Shoes

My chosen method of exercise is walking. I can do it almost anywhere at almost any time. I have heard of walking referred to as the simplest, easiest, least expensive method of exercise. Least expensive does not mean 100% free. There is no charge to go out and walk around. Walking at the local park is free, but walking at local amusement park is not. Therefore, I will agree, walking can be free but not 100% free. Walking requires I wear shoes. Walking across a bare foot is not for me. Soft grass feels nice but most of the time grass feels like tiny sharp points. It may not be as bad as walking across a floor filled with Legos, but I can't walk on grass for an extended period of time. Walking on a typical street sidewalk is doable, but again, I can not do it for an extended period of time. I need padding otherwise my heal starts to hurt. Walking for me requires having a good pair of shoes. Previously I spoke about knowing if is it time for a new sneakers ? My answer was, yes. Ne

DVD Rescheduled, Postponed, Delayed.

Jillian Michaels came out with a new DVD. One Week Shred and you could lose up to 7 pounds in 7 days. A seven day commitment?  I can do that! It was to be released March 3rd. Great! I got on line and per-ordered it. My plan was to do the DVD for one week and shed the 7 pounds before I went on my first camping trip with my son and his cub scouts. As I said, that "was" the plan. What happen was something else. The DVD took longer to ship and longer to arrive. The DVD was delivered a few days before my trip. I did not want to risk being sore during the trip, so I decided to start the Monday after our trip. *sigh* We went on our camping trip and had a great time. It was awesome sleeping under the stars and listening to the coyotes howling and the little cubs sounded adorable. The frogs in the creak were very vocal. An owl decided to land in a tree very near our tent, and he too was very vocal. I really enjoyed our camping trip. My son had a great time and he wanted to
