So last night we took Molly for a 40 minute walk. It was a lot of fun. Molly sure knows how to guilty her mommy lol. There is a Dairy Queen that we pass on our walks and every day we go past it she walks up to it and wants to get ice cream. They have these things call pup cups. Its just vanilla soft serve with a dog treat in it. Well anyway if we dont stop to get some she will continue to look over her shoulder at DQ til it is out of sight. So it makes me soo guilty when we dont stop for ice cream. So last night my Fiance noticed that they have a new blizzard called the pumpkin pie blizzard. So we stopped and Molly got her pup cup and he got a mini blizzard. I am so proud of myself cause I didn't get any ice cream, I got a diet pepsi! I didn't even finish the pop because it tasted funny so I threw it out on my way home. I also learned to not eat Ramon Noodles for lunch. They are 190 cals. per serving and there are 2 servings in a bag. Plus its not all that filling. So I ate about 1600+ cals yesterday. Not to bad I guess. So no more Ramon Noodles for me. Mostly I eat soups for lunch, such as chicken noodle or tomato soup. Then I will have some veggies or fruit with it and maybe a sandwich.
So I just got home from the gym. Today I was on the bike for 20 minutes and did leg and butt strength training for about 15 minutes. I split the bike up though. I did 15 minutes and then did the strength training and I was going to leave after that, but for some reason I felt guilty, so I went and did another 5 minutes on the bike. It made me feel a little bit better. So we will be taking Molly out for a walk tonight. Today is a beautiful day, with a high of 70 degrees. So tonight should be a nice night for a walk. I think that I am going to make Fridays my weigh in days. I want to do it before the weekend, because that is when I am the most likely to be bad. So if I do it on Fridays and I have eaten good and worked out all week then Fridays would be the best time. I think that I feel the most silly is when I am trying to stay active at work. I am a nanny, however, before you say that I should be chasing the kids around, they are older and have no interest in playing with me. Mostly they play with there friends or watch tv. Now that school has started I spend most of my time with them helping them do their homework. So I do a lot of sitting. That is part of the reason I gained so much weight in the first place. I went from a retail job where I was on my feet all day long, to a job where I am sitting most of the time. So I try and walk around picking the house up. I even resorted to crunchs and push ups (when the kids where doing something else of course). Its hard because there is not a lot I can do. I am only there for about 4 hours. Is it ok if I just let it go or should I try and keep moving at work?
