Before I get into the blog information, we want to thank all of our friends and family for the support and encouragement that you have given us. We are well on our way to a happier and heathier lifestyle.
Now on to the numbers. Drumroll please................................................. ......................... As of yesterday, Erin has lost 8 more pounds this past week. I am extremely proud of her. At the same time, I am concerned for her because her knees are really causing problems. Tonight, Erin rode around the complex twice and then walked/ran for a little bit. She couldn't do the entire lap. Hopefully the Campus will be good help for her so she can use the pool.
As for me, I also lost 8 more pounds. Originally it was 6, but after I got out of the shower, 2 more pounds were off. Rebecca said that can count. :) I also did a 2 lap around the campus on bike then ran/walked the third lap. Now my knee is paying for it.
So now we are trying new things and trying to eat out a little....but healthy wise. At Applebees, we had something from the 550 calorie menu. This totally helped with my steak cravings. And Chilis has healthy verions of some of the clssics. For the first time ever, I had a chicken sandwich with a tomato. Not bad.
One of my biggest concerns lately has been the steps issue. They say we need to get 10000 steps in a day. Very difficult when sitting at a desk all day. And trying to get over 8000 steps at night is tricky too. But at least the activity time and calories are met. Go burned calories.
