21 Day Fitness Challenge: Day 20

Wisconsin State Fair, enough said! Actually because we went to the fair I got my walking in for the day no problem. I also could have eaten a lot worse than I did, this is true. What I did eat at the fair was:

Four bites of beef jerkey, a piece of chocolate covered bacon on a stick and a soft-shelled taco.

We also had a picnic with college friends after the fair and I started out OK, but did have a cupcake and a beer. My mom made bratwurst for my dad's birthday when we got home from that. I definitely have a love/hate relationship with the state of Wisconsin and visiting my parents! This is where I really need to start evaluating my relationship with food because this is where all the trouble began. Is it no wonder that Wisconsin is 25th in the nation for obese adults?

21 Day Fitness Challenge: Day 16

Today I was stuck at home since we only have one car and George had to go into the city for work. My activity consisted of walking around the neighborhood and to the store and my food consisted of Lean Cuisine meals. This may not sound all that healthy, but it is a huge improvement from the crap I used to buy when I was home alone. I definitely have an emotional eating issue which is going to be the biggest hurdle in my quest to eating healthier.

I did weigh myself and am down to 176.5 from 183 on Day 1 of my challenge, so that's super exciting! I have been far from perfect with my goals, but it just goes to show that little tweaks and awareness have been helping.
