Before After

Walk, Walk, Walk!

My husband ordered a pedometer for Christmas and he got it yesterday at the office. He was really excited about and put it on to use it when we went walking to the YMCA. After we walked, we decided to play some basketball and practice our shooting. It was a good workout for us and some time alone without my daughter.

We started getting hungry and went out for lunch. My husband wanted to go out today, so I didn't make anything at home. I was careful with my choice of food. I ordered an egg and cheese sandwich on whole wheat bagel. After I ate that, I finally noticed they had a small sign that they have low fat cheese. Arrgghh! I could have ordered that instead of the regular American cheese. Now I know next time they have it.

We went home to let my daughter take her nap while I knit and watch football game with my husband. Then we went to TGIF for dinner because we have a coupon for that place. My husband is big on coupons and love to save money. I like TFIG because they have the right portion with 500 calories and 10g of fat. Not bad. I ordered the pecan crusted chicken. It was really good.

Afterwards we head to Disney and I always ask my husband to stop at a store to split our "dessert" before we go to Disney. That dessert is a york mint candy and I feel less tempted if I have a small piece of chocolate with some peppermint in my belly because at Disney, their food is sooo tempting when you see and smell them.

We went to Epcot to see the Candlelight Processional and the Illuminations. We had a nice time being there and seeing all the Christmas decoration. We forgot our camera, so no pictures.

As we walked back to our car, my husband checked his pedometer and it reached his goal of 10,000 steps a day. I'm sure I have done as much as him and my feet were killing me when we got home. I was out as soon as my head hit the pillow. What a workout day!

Wow!!

It sounds like you really had an awesome day!! I am so jealous you are so close to Disney, the Candlelight Processional must have been so beautiful!!! DD and I are going to Disney again in late January, we can't wait!

I'm sooo jealous!

We went to Disney last year for the first time ever in December.  It was AWESOME!

I'm so jealous!

OH and I love York patties too!  They arent terrible for you either!

have a great day!

How awesome is that

to live so close to Disney. I have nver been there before. I would love to go someday though. Girl I love those peppermint patties too. I am a minty kind of person. FYI.. I tried to get our youngest (he is 15) to wear a helmet.... yeah that ain't happening.

Great day

You did have a great workout day.  Walking is the best form of exercise we can do. 

What kind of pedometer did your hubby get?  I use a omron HJ112.  I really enjoy it as you can wear it anywhere, even in the bra.  Wearing a pedometer is a real motivator for getting in more steps everyday.

Blessings to you for continued success.  PS. I would love to see the 130's.....been working on it for a year.  Chargail
