The day was great. Had a good day at work but starting to slow down and money getting low - hate that about these type of companies. I have plenty to keep me busy though.
Met Jim for lunch today at Nicky's. He had Gyro Plate and I had a chicken on a pita with lettuce and tomato plain, I asked for bbq but they didn't have any.
After work I went and picked Jimmy up, we came home and changed and went right out to the park. There is this place called Belly Button Hill. There is this hill that the kids usually sled on in the winter, there is also a soccer field and they finally put a walking trail around it. It's a block long on each side so 4 blocks square I guess you'd say. Jimmy rode his bike and I ran. I ran 6 times around, walked 1, ran 2 more then walked 2 - about 42 min, little over 3 miles I'd guess and I burned 319 cals. I'd say that was a good workout. When he wasn't riding his bike, he did play at the park and the way it's set up I can see him while I'm running and I know he's safe.
We stopped at Jim's mom's since she lives right over there, didn't stay long cuz she was going out but when we left Jimmy wanted hot dogs from this place called Mickey's - We don't usually eat out so I guess you'd say it was a treat. I got a chicken pita with lettuce and tomato again, but I put light ranch on it at home.
Food for today:
Honey Nut Cheerios
Blueberries
2% Milk
Bagelful (strawberry cream cheese)
Chicken Pita w/lettuce & tomato
Light Ranch
Approx - 1500
Not concentrating on my cals but eating better 1st and then will go from there. I can gestimate the cals but I really need to focus on eating healthier foods. Then I will concentrate again on totalling the cals. I guessed 500 cals for the pita which is kinda high but just in case. Pita's are about 200 x 2 = 400, Chicken about 200 - I think more than 4 oz, x 2 = 400, light ranch 80 (only had on one sandwich). Too many carbs today, need to get some veggies in and more fruit - I KNOW 
Just wanted to update while I was doing laundry. Hung out with Jimmy, playing with the dogs, we checked out the garden, picked out some weeds in the front and later we will play cards and then we both need to take baths! Well Jimmy bath, me shower!
Hope everyone has a great Thursday!
Bye

Your workout sounds great. I need to start doing something cause I am gaining the weight again:( How do you do it being a mommy and working? I am off of work and I don't have any children and I still can't work out. I need some motivation and energy! It was nice chatting with you earlier. We should plan chats more often. It's nice talking with someone with common interests! Take care!

Dont stress about work just yet:) Im sure it will be ok. That park sounds nice, probably makes U feel safe that U can see him while U run..Somtimes counting cals gets to be too much. Im doing the same just trying to make good choices and watch my portions...we can do this!! Chicken pita tomato...sounds like me when I was doing egg sandwiches everyday..when taco salad night!!!???

Belly button hill-hehe! :) That is such a cute name! It sounds like you got a great run in there, three miles is awesome! I think it is so great that you are posting your food again. I understand that it is more about the quality and nutrition of what is in your foods than the calorie amount. If you are eating healthy stuff, you should be okay. Have a happy Thursday! Love you!

Yeah, that name "Belly Button Hill" is very cute! And OMG, way to go on your run/walk there, WOOHOO Kathy Go!
Sometimes it does help us to look at the bad calories to really realize how bad it is. But the plan to start eating healthier foods is very important too. I've been having problems controlling my food since I got injured...and one thing that stopped me was a wicked bout of either food poisoning or a stomach virus. But like everything else tomorrow is another day and we move on, right?
Keep up with the workouts and making time to treat Kathy right! Love you!

I am actually jealous of the last line "Jimmy bath, me shower" as I have no hot water!! That sounds so lap of luxury awesome.
I love the park story - love the name too. We develop residential areas here in our business, and I just might have to borrow that name!
