Shakers

I walked/jogged 5 miles yesterday. And it felt GOOD. It's the first time I've gone that far outside, the day was perfect, the sun and breeze felt awesome. 1 hour and 11 minutes of my time, well spent. Saturday I tried the workout video again, and got through the whole thing, no sudden urge to vomit. And...it felt GOOD.

Day by day, I've got to do this. I started walking during my lunch (half hour) again. I usually only have time for 1.5 miles, but its 1.5 miles more than I would have done. The fresh air never hurts either.
Thus far today I'm also on track for eating. No coke, no cookies, no chips. Success!
I've starting drinking Dole Smoothie Shakers. They are very delish!

They are in the frozen foods section, and contain fruit and yogurt. You just add juice (orange, apple, whatever) and shake them up. With juice added they are about 180-190 calories, unless you go with a diet juice. I've been drinking them for breakfast, in place of my usual Coke and more than likely something else unhealthy. I'm going to try this for a week and see if I get any results. Today I also drank one for lunch and am not having too many hunger pains yet. I try to convince myself that hunger pains are actually just my body getting skinnier, so I try to embrace them :)

Tonight I'll eat either grilled chicken or a grilled chicken salad. Tomorrow, repeat. MUST stick to the plan!
