Well yesterday I kicked off my counting calories. I know I know I should have been doing this from the git go but I hate it. I did start out for a few weeks counting calories on the My fitness Pal app from my phone but I just let it go. I lost weight, 36 pounds. But it is now time to get over it and count. I did really well yesterday. I ate 1400 calories and it says I can have 2030.
Hubby and I took the kids to the park yesterday. The park is about a half a mile from our house so we walked it. The kids played and I walked around the track 4 times. That makes about 1.5 miles. Then we walked home. So altogether about 2.5 miles yesterday. We went and bought a basketball and went back to the park and we all played basketball. My son is actually really good at it. So got some more exercise in. Overall a pretty good day.
I am working on my water intake as well. I usually drink Crystal Light but today I am trying to suck down plain water.
I plan on getting some exercise tonight with all the walking we are gonna get taking the kids trick or treating. Then I plan on getting home to hop on my bike while I watch Ghost Hunters. Anyone watch that? I love it. On Halloween they do a 6 hour live investigation. A couple of years ago they did one on Waverly Hills Sanatorium. That is here in Kentucky, in Louisville. One of the most haunted places ever! I plan on going one day.
I can't wait to dress my little ones up. My daughter is going to be Snow White and my son is gonna be a Vampire. My husband is so looking forward to doing is vampire makeup. I think I will just throw on my Minnie Mouse ears I got from Disney World and paint a nose and whiskers on.
I have been trying to dodge candy all morning at work but they get me when I am away from my desk. Here is what I have right now
And I would have a lot more if I hadn't said no to some of the one who caught me in my office. I'm gonna take this home and put it in my kiddos bags. Everyone have a safe Halloween. I know I am going to be fighting the Halloween Candy but I will win!

Tracking my food & water intake daily is key to keeping me accountable, I'd honestly be lost without doing it!
ReplyDeleteWell done on tracking your food! I really need to drink more water so I'm going to give it my all in November. It's just so hard to remember!
ReplyDeleteI lack on my water intake thank god for smartphones.... There is this app that tracks your water intake and send you text reminders to drink water I think its great so every time I get my notice to drink water i take it as a order so i stop whatever am doing to make sure i drink at least 8 oz of water on the spot :-). I have to say i was not good today :-( I had 2 mini candy bars .. Happy halloween
ReplyDeleteHi Sharon, thanks for stopping by my blog and checking it out.
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to say on an unrelated diet note that I totally watch Ghost Hunters! It scares me sometimes but I love it! I hate Horror movies, though so it's weird that I'd rather be scared by real life things than produced movies. Oh well :)
Good job starting to track... I would say 1400 is probably a good count. If you eat 2030 I fear you'll start gaining, I would adjust it if I were you!
ReplyDeleteI drink my water with a straw, it does help it to go quicker and easiwer... I don't know why, but it just does!
