Day 6!

Sorry to be posting this so late! It is technically day 7, but yesterday we went to the Brookfield Zoo and were there all day, and I didn't get home til late last night, so that's why I'm posting so late. SO, since today marks 1 week, I will be posting my day 7 blog later this evening after work. Yes, yesterday we went to the zoo, and I forgot how HUGE brookfield really is. There's no way to see everything in one day, unless you power walk and only glance at the animals in passing. Nobody ever pays attention to those little fun facts or information boxes, at least I don't because you'd be there all day. So we walked a lot, and by the end of the day poor Vada's feet were killing her, so I carried her the rest of the way to the car as we were leaving. Girlfriend is heavy! So I got a great arm and leg workout in that day. I brought a lunch from home so I wouldn't have to eat expensive, fattening food. After we left the zoo, we went out for pizza at Gino's East. I wasn't worried that eating a slice of deep dish would hurt me since I'd been working out all week. I had a 2 cheesesticks and a half a bread stick too. I drank unsweetened ice tea. So from there, we dropped Vada off at home and went to Gayetes for ice cream. Talk about temptation! So I got some ice cream, but again, I wasn't worried about the calories because I'd been cutting myself off from any sweets all week. It's okay to reward yourself every once in a while! Stay tuned for more this evening, including how much weight I've lost this week. Thanks to whoever has been reading, and please feel free to comment, I'd love the supportive words!
Breakfast: Bagel with cream cheese
