It was "Breakfast" time... figuratively. Again I wasn't craving an egg or anything egg related, just sounds sickening right now.

I was hungry, and typical healthy food is not getting bought by the people in our house with money until this food is gone. But I'm taking low portion sizes. I'm walking around 6pm.

I had just walked 3.24 miles and got a shower before I started fixing the sandwich. All within 30 minutes to make it in time for chat for BLC. :-P

I'm putting in a lot more cardio this week. In addition to my couch to 5k, which should generally give me 2.4 miles every other day, I'm also walking a mile after couch to 5k training. Then the days in between I'm walking 3.2 miles. So roughly I'm close to 7 miles already and it's only been 2 days. I wanna see 200's, and I wanna see them NOW.

I'm not sure when I'll be moving my furniture across the state, but when I do that will be an off day since it'll be an all day drive.

I also felt a little bad about lunch today, I don't think it'll set me back because it's smaller than my old meals, but you never know.

Finally my hunger tonight as I type this is probably a 5 or 6. I'm not sure how to measure it, but I'll just sleep it off til the morning.

    Definitely don't count the furniture moving as an off day...that's a lot of cardio and strength rolled into one! A little tip that really helped me is that apples, milk and oatmeal help with satiation levels....and you should research the benefits of calcium on metabolising fat...really good stuff, if you supplement, make sure it's fortified with vitamin D :)

    emoticon I think you are doing a GREAT job with your walking!! I'm only up to 3/4 of a mile and I'm working on doing it every other day (baby steps). I find it helpful to drink water at night. It helps to keep me from eating things I shouldn't! Keep up the good work! Oh, and did you know that "moving boxes" is found on the fitness tracker??
