Saturday we were supposed to go to my brother's house for a family celebration of all the January birthdays. Unfortunately his wife got sick; really sick. So it was canceled. But my mother decided that the girls needed to spend the night at their house (they had an absolute ball, btw!) and Bill and I were to have a night out.
So off to the gym I went and walked 3.5 miles. I jogged a few times in there but did not do the interval thingy all the way through. I was on the tread mill for 50 minutes. When I got off my feet hurt so bad. Turns out that my shoes have this bar like thing running under them between my arch and heal. Today I am still in minor pain from it. But it took about 2 hours for me to be able to walk on my feet after the work out. It did not hurt at first, but after I drove home and got out of the car I could hardly stand up. Not good. Today I purchased new shoes. Here is hoping they are better!!
Anyway, I got home, showered and changed, and Bill and I went to a movie and out to dinner. I decided I would have a little bit of popcorn, but not much. I am not a big popcorn fan so this was easy to say No to. But we then went to Blue Fin ... a Japanese Steak House. I ate. and ate. I would be willing to say that the food was not that bad calorie wise, if you only eat a small portion. I ate: 3 spicy tuna sushi roll pieces, 3 grilled shrimp appetizers, grilled veggies, a huge helping of noodles, almost all the fried rice, and about 2/3 of the steak. burp. It was not my intention to eat so much, but I guess I was not really paying attention and it was so damn good.
Today it is now 9:30 and I should go downstairs and work out. But my feet hurt. So I am taking a day off. It has been 2 weeks since I have taken a day off. I feel a bit guilty! Especially since I was planning on working really hard and being extra good this week. Oh well. The best laid plans.
I want to get serious about doing this C25K program on the treadmill. I think it will take me a few weeks to get up to speed on the first week. I will have to push myself harder than I have been too. I hate running, have I mentioned that before? Not sure why I decided to do this, but I know it will be good for my body, so .....
Well, I keep ya posted on my running progress. Tomorrow back to normal workout schedule!

oh,well....back on track today. Weekends tend to mess me up too. I spent too much time driving in a van on Saturday, but then I did walk all over Heidelberg campus, but I had to eat cafeteria food. I ate bbq pork sandwich, but only ate the pork and not the bun and had broccoli. Yesterday I spent in Detroit with my mother doing Irish stuff.....no exercise and ate at a diner...ugh. Scrambled eggs and toast. I should have skipped the toast. OKAY, SO NOW WE ARE BOTH BACK ON TRACK....RIGHT?
